Are these the worlds' worst instructions ?

[RogerS]

Can anyone explain this to me as I haven't got a clue and when I rang up Tech Support at Hudson Reed, they didn't either !

You cut the red wire. It's always the red wire. Just make sure that there are only 3 seconds left on the timer........

my interpretation .the boss fixed to concrete, hot and cold controlled elsewhere connected ,screeded and tiled round the boss and corked .stem and shower head assembled and screwed to boss.

Simple. it reads TT GALMI

That was also mine. Until I received the unit and it comes with normal tails !

Spoke to Technical. The drawings are out-of-date. I made a passing comment that it was a pity that their QA department didn't get its act together. He replied that it was a pity that they didn't speak English :lol:

Ah. And here I was wondering why they were attaching a vacuum cleaner handle to a chess board...

I thought it was meant to say. Drive your car under the shower, then vacuum out the inside with the hose.

Just taken delivery of a kitchen. There are NO instructions. Just bags of bits!

Actually I did get quite a remarkable discount. The salesman I was negotiating with turned out to be leaving and so no skin off his nose. I didn't realise this at the time though...just thought I was playing the 'end of month' target game. All by email so full audit trail. When the time came to purchase and we went into the store and asked for him, only then id we find out that he had left. The young lady who then proceeded to enter our details into their sales quotation system came up with a much higher figure!

She blanched when I told her how much adrift she was. To be fair to them, they honoured the quoted price although they would have been within their rights not to.

Not a clue.



Three bits of chipboard...dimensions that don't fit anything else



God knows what these are for



They all came with the Under Oven Housing.

or these



A piece of paper telling me that they cocked up the pre-drilled fittings and I need to make new holes. Only the paper refers to a different part to that which I have.



All the pan drawers came with a bit of paper telling me to fit a 4th screw as they had cocked up (I inserted the last bit but they did). Only you need to be Houdini to get your arms into the backs of the cabinet to do this as the back of the drawers get in the way. Only 24 screws to do :evil:

Rather poor IMO

Had a junior Technical Author once write "press button for three seconds, then remove finger".

I told him we were having a run through the following day and did he want to pre-book A and E...

To be fair, I once mixed up the inside diameter and the outside diameter of a steel bush, so the guy on the lathe brought me a bag of steel swarf and told me he had followed the drawing EXACTLY.
Fortunately he was only winding me up.

"God knows what these are for". my guess packing so that the good bits do not damage each other during transport.
