Default fitting new shower mixer, bar type

Hi All,

I have just bought a Swirl thermostatic shower mixer that is to
replace a leaking AquaLisa recessed model.

After I have filled in the hole where the old shower was (it was
sunken into the tiled plywood "wall" of a cupboard) I need to fit the
new mixer.

The method of fixing it isn't clear from the manual - it seems to be
achieved using "s-elbows" (supplied) and nothing else. Is this usual?

Is there a guide anywhere of how to fit these type of mixers? Is it
effectively supported on the pipes - it does seem quite heavy?

What do I connect the s-elbows to at the supply side?

Thanks, Tom
