Hey all

Had a new cooker installed yesterday, after connecting the hose and when the plumber had gone i noticed the cooker wasnt flat and the oven door was swinging open. He came back and spent a bit of time tilting the cooker to level the feet. He didn't disconnect it.

I noticed after he had gone that the bayonet side is at 5 o clock instead of hanging at 6 o clock- no idea if it was like that before he came back.

Daft question, but i assume this doesn't matter in the slightest? there is no way the bayonet would have come lose while he was tilting the cooker? I think i read that if the bayonet becomes unsealed, it seals the backplate.

I think it is totally fine, but it is gas so just wanted to check (fitter was registered gas safe and gave certificate.) Both ends of hose below

Cheers

I doubt he’s pulled it out, as once in, you have to press the connection on the hose to release.
