Cooker with bayonet hose needs connecting where there is no bayonet fitting.

Hi guys I hae a job tomorrow evening, fitting a cooker with a bayonet hose attached but there is no bayonet fitting for the hose to connect to. Can I get a bayonet fitting that can be connected to the capped pipe in place? if not any suggestions? Thanks

Don't know why my photos turn out the wrong way round, seem ok when I upload them.

I guess, you just have to make it happen, hook up the bayonet fitting. Hope you have the cooker ticket.

And make sure the bayonet is at the right height. Is there a backplate already on the wall?

Thanks, yes I do have the ticket. I'll just have to make it happen then, didn't realise it was as simple as that. I obviously missed the 'just have to make it happen' module during training, sounds as though it could save me time in the future. Next time i'm having trouble on a job, if I remember I 'just have to make it happen' I should be sorted. Thanks.

You'll need the hose as well. The bayonet needs to be lower, can't remember the exact height. 450mm I think.

750mm?

Just looked at some instructions, it's 600mm. With a natural curve to the hose.

It's 750, unless MI says otherwise.

Those instructions must be as old as you mate!

That reminds me, aren't we converting to natural gas from towns gas soon?
