GLASS AND LOUVER INSTALLATION
Fig. 39 – Installing The Glass Trim

Fig. 40– Door Locking Assembly
Locate the door hooks in the control area of the appliance
and one at a time pull the hook out towards you until you
can insert the end of the hook into the receiving hole on the
glass trim. Repeat with the remaining hook. (see fig. 40)
Fig. 42 – Installing The Top Louver
The top louver is held in place by drop in tabs that fit into
receiving slots on the fireplace. Simply place louver up to
the opening, push up on the louver and back and let the
louver tabs drop into their respective slots.
AERATION ADJUSTMENT
NOTE: The following assumes that the gas line has
been connected and leak tested by a qualified
technician.
The primary air adjustment is preset at the factory.
Little or no adjustment may be required for natural gas.
Propane will perform very differently at different altitudes
and from different fuel suppliers. Some adjustment will
most likely be needed for an appliance burning propane.
The flame should have a blue base with yellow
tips. A dark orange flame with sooting and black smoke
indicates a lack of primary air. The primary air shutter is
located in the firebox on the right hand side of the burner.
Adjust the primary mixture by loosening the set screw on
the air shutter and increasing the opening for more air and
a bluer / cleaner flame, or by closing the air shutter for a
more yellow flame. See (figures 43 and 44) for proper
flame characteristics, and primary air adjustment.
Fig. 41 – Installing The Bottom Louver
Fasten the bottom louver with the screws provided. Anchor
the hinges to the mounting tabs at the bottom of the fire-
place. The mounting holes are provided for simple installa-
tion. ( see fig.41)
The glass trim hangs on the top rail and rests on the sealing
surface of the fireplace. ( see fig. 39)
