Energy Cells should be handled with care due to the weight and risk
of hand/foot injury.
11. The energy cells have several grooves on one surface for locating around the
elements. The two slots through the centre of the energy cell create the air passages
within the core.
Position the rst energy cell of the bottom row to the right, rmly pressed against the
side insulation with the element grooves facing upwards and tting neatly around the
element. Angle the element upward to t the energy cell.
Position the second energy cell in the row against the left-hand insulation. Place the
remaining energy cells between the rst and second in the row. (Fig. 11)
DO NOT DISCONNECT THE ELEMENT TERMINALS
In addition ensure the slots for the air passages line up with the holes in the base
insulation.
Fit the remaining energy cells to the bottom row, being careful not to damage or
dislodge the element.
Note - The bends in the element locate around the grooves in the energy cell
to secure the element.
12. Position the second row of energy cells on top of the rst but this time the
energy cells must be upside down ensuring the grooves are positioned over the
elements. (Fig. 12)
