2 POSITIONING OF THE HOB
It is the law that all gas appliances are installed by authorised
persons.
Clearance around the appliance must comply with the requirements of
AS5601.
The following operation requires building and/or carpentry work so must
be carried out by a competent tradesman. Installation can be carried
out on various materials such as masonry, metal, solid wood or plastic
laminated wood as long as they are heat resistant (T 90°C).
2.1 Attachment to the support structure
Create an opening with the dimensions shown in the figure in the top
surface of the counter, keeping a minimum distance of 50 mm from the
rear border.
This appliance is classified as "type Y" in relation to fire hazards and
can therefore be mounted against walls higher than the work surface on
condition that a certain distance “X” be kept between the appliance and
the wall as shown in the figure so as to avoid damage from
overheating.
Make sure there is a minimum of 600 mm between the hot plate flames
and any shelf that may be installed directly above them.
Accurately position the gasket provided all around the outer edge of the
hole in the top surface as shown in the figures below, pressing it down
so as to make it adhere properly. For measurements, refer to the figure
depending on the hob model to be installed, bearing in mind that in both
models the front and rear sides must skim the hole. Secure the hob to
the counter with brackets A (supplied). Carefully trim any excess from
border C of the gasket. The distances in the following drawing refer to
the hole on the inner side of the gasket.
