13. 

For solid walls drill two Ø6 mm holes for the 

wall plugs. For other types of wall structure 

alternative fixings may be required (not 

supplied). If necessary, make a recess 6 mm 

deep to accept the wall plate for flush fitting of 

the outlet to the wall surface.

14. 

Fit the two wall plugs supplied and secure the 

wall plate with the wall plate screws.

15. 

Make sure that there is clearance behind the 

wall plate and temporarily fit the two backplate 

screws into the wall plate. This will prevent 

the fixing holes from becoming blocked with 

plaster or grout.

16.

 Finish the wall, e.g. tiles.

17. 

Place the backplate over the outlet pipe with 

the arrow pointing vertically up and tighten the 

two backplate screws. Make sure that the foam 

seal abuts the finished wall surface.

18. 

Check that the blue ‘O’ seal is fitted inside the 

backplate nut. Fit the olive and the backplate 

nut over the outlet pipe and tighten the nut.

19. 

Check that the second ‘O’ seal (black) is fitted 

to the outside of the backplate nut. Press 

the elbow onto the backplate, make sure 

that the clips on the elbow engage with the 

backplate.

20. 

Press the shroud over the elbow, make 

sure that it engages with the lugs on the 

backplate.

21. 

This completes the installation of the RAC 

assembly.
