INSTALLING “Z” SHAPED GRATE RETAINER BRACKET
Before grouting the bricks, locate “Z” shaped grate retainer brackets on top of the hearth panel bricks as shown. Position the retainer
brackets at 8-3/4” apart from center to center of notch.
GROUTING INSTRUCTIONS
Material Provided:
□
9 pound bag of Cement (Qty 2)
□
9 pound bag of Sand (Qty 2)
Materials Required (Available at a home improvement or masonry store):
□
Piping Bag
□
Joints Striker
□
Heavy duty mixing bucket
□
Trowel
1.
Moisten brick surface with a damp sponge or a spray bottle just prior to application. When the bricks are wet, any excess grout
mixture that might have gotten onto the brick will easily wipe off.
2.
In a heavy duty mixing bucket, pour seven (7) cups of water in first then add in 4.5 lbs (half of one bag provided) of sand and 4.5
lbs of cement. Mix together well using a power drill with a mixing wand attachment.
3.
The overall length of the piping bag should be about 16 inches. If the bag is longer then 16 inches, cut it down to size by
removing the end with the larger opening. This will make the bag easier to handle.
4.
Put 2 to 3 cups of the grout mixture into the piping bag making sure the smaller opening is downward and over a moist towel to
avoid spilling. Place a wet towel over the bucket making sure it is directly on the surface of the grout mixture. This will keep the
mixture moist and not dry out before use.
