F P fig1 Before cutting front plinth to length check if a plinth return is being added, if yes (see fig 3) On reverse of plinth mark position of cabinet legs and fix clip locators and clips to rear of plinth. Finally clip plinth onto legs (see fig1) P R K fig2 The plinth return kit is supplied with a leg tube and socket for rear of unit (see page 5 - (fig3) or (fig5) as required for fitting instructions) Fit leg clips to rear of return panel in-line with e unit legs Note:- the plinth return panel is edged all round. Fit leg clips to rear of panel in line with legs (see fig2). Fit panels as shown in (see fig3), (left hand shown, right hand is the reverse), Plinth return panel fig3 If fitting to a reduced depth unit, reduce plinth return panel accordingly and fit cut edged to wall. Approx. 3mm lip Front plinth panel W F W C O fig4 fig5 Cut out work-top using the template supplied by the pottery manufacturer for the basin. For a semi-recess basin that requires both the worktop and fascia to be cut, ensure the worktop is notched if required as (see fig6) to allow basin to fit fully back to front fascia. Apply a silicon sealer to all cut edges on both the work-top and front panel. fig6 semi-recess basin Semi-counter top basin IT IS IMPORTANT ENSURE ALL CUT EDGES ARE CORRECTLY SEALED TO PREVENT WATER INGRESS F L W When joining worktops its recommended that a MASONS mitre joint is used, complete with joining bolts, silicon seal mitre as shown in (see fig7) Before fixing worktops in place its recommended that any other additional cutting is done first, Note: it is recommended that a down ward cutting blade is used and sand all cut edges. To fix worktops use either stretcher plates or drill holes through top rail Ensure all exposed edges fitted against wall are siliconed to stop any water ingress failure will cause worktops to deteriorate and will invalidate any guarantee Silicon cut edges before final assembly fig7 Page 7
S P Fig 1 Where its required that floor mounted furniture is fitted back to the wall, either scribe end panels around skirting or alternatively fit skirting up to side panels of unit (see fig1) T - O - Fig 2 With the traditional style floor mounted furniture there is the option to fit a infill panel as supplied, this can be fixed into place either by fixing with double side tape (not supplied) or fix in place with screws, however ensure length of screw does not come through of plinth (see fig 2 & 3) Without plinth in-fill panel Fig 3 With plinth in-fill panel F Fig 4 Under slung basins are support by a cradle, pre-fitted to base unit on 4 stretcher brackets which will require final adjustment as below (see fig4) Basin cradle Fig 5a Slacking screw and adjust height of cradle as below. Slacken screws off in the stretcher bracket (see fig5a) and adjust height of basin, so that the basin sits 10mm taller than the side gables, (see fig5b) ensure basin is also level. Once cradle is correctly adjusted, retighten screw add a 2ⁿ screw into the horizontal slot This will allow the worktop to sit on gables and the basin to fit flush to the underside of the worktop Fig 5b Level basin and adjust height 10mm We suggest that the tap assembly is pre-fitted to worktop before fitting, Fig 6 Once basin and cradle are correctly adjusted, apply a bead of silicone along the top edges of the gables and around the lip of bowel, fit worktop to unit and bowel, wipe clean and remove any excess of silicon, allow sufficient time for the sealer to harden. see fig 6 Page 8
F R M fig1 Fit mirror inserts into rear of mirror, (see fig1) Note:- Mirror can be fitted either portrait or landscape directions, ensure inserts are aligned in the correct direction (see fig2) for the orientation required. (Note:- Once the plastic inserts have been fitted they cannot be removed) Mark wall of fit to suit the correct spacing between inserts and that the fixing locations are level, ensure that the appropriate fittings are used for the wall type. fig2 Hang mirror onto wall. Ensure inert's are fitted for the correct orientation required C fig3 Cladding panels with infill to a wall. (See fig 3) External Filler Cladding Panel R ( 4) Before fitting cladding panels its recommended that where there is a large bevel or radius to the edge of the door or fascia, that the panel is reduced in depth so that the edge of the cladding panel is level with the start of the bevel, or panel can be left flush with front fascias or door fronts. If cladding panel is cut, fit cut edge against the wall and seal as appropriate fig4 Trim Cladding panel to finish level with start of edge profile where required fig5 E Measure and mark or scribe the filler panel, cut panel as required, fix the filler panel to the cladding panel with either stretcher brackets or a wooden baton (see fig 5). Slide both parts into position (see fig 5) and secure by screwing through base unit gable, ensure fixings are placed in a discrete position inside gable. Slide into place Page 9
F Note: To fit bath panels timber under the bath rim is required to hold the bath panel clips. In the event that the bath does not have timber for the clips, the installer will need to fit timber to the under side of the bath rim as necessary, depending on tiling the bath panels may require trimming. All cut panels must be sealed with silicone sealer E P Stretcher bracket fitted to timber Fig1. When the bath has an end panel, fix with stretcher plates to the timber under the bath rim and to the wall (see fig 1) (Use appropriate fixings for wall type ). Two Keku clips can be fitted to the front edge of the end panel to allow the bath side panel to be clipped into place Wall Bath End Panel Fit stretcher Plate approx. 300mm from underside to support bath end panel (Use appropriate fixings for wall type) Keku clips S P Fig2. Three Keku clips can be fitted to the timber under the bath rim so that the side panel can be clipped into position (see fig 2) Keku clips Fig3. The two stretcher plates can be fixed to wall (Use appropriate fixings for wall) type) approx. 300mm from the underside of the bath as stops for the bath panel (see fig 3) Stretcher plate fixed to wall to support side panel when clipped into position (Use appropriate fixings for wall) type) Page 10
Floor mounted Basin & WC Units can be fitted either as separate units (Fig 1 & 2) or in a run (Fig 3) with the WC fitted to either side of the wash basin unit When the WC unit is fitted on its own ensure you centralise the work top so that hangs equally over each side of the unit (Fig 2) When the units are fitted in a run ensure the work top fits under the basin Fig1. Fig2. Fig3. To fit the cistern into the WC unit pull the front top fascia off the unit Front Top Panel To remove the front panel lift upwards once the front top panel has been removed. Fix work top down using two stretcher brackets To fix unit to a wall drill through rear top rail as required, additional stretcher brackets can be used if required Front Panel When fitting the wash basin to the unit ensure basin sits on bed of silicon sealant (Fig 4) Once basin is fitted ensure silicon sealant is applied to all edges
