INSTALLING THE GLASS
Step 3.
Attach the vacuum glass clamp (if available) to the center of the glass and lift the
glass up into the clearance notch. See Figure 73.
When the glass panel is raised into the clearance notch there is enough clearance
to swing the lower edge of the glass panel over the standoff frame. See Figure 74.
When the glass panel is outside of the standoff frame then lower the glass panel
out of the clearance notch and carefully, and securely, set the panel aside.
Step 4.
Repeat Steps 2 and 3 for the other glass panels.
CLEANING THE GLASS
The glass should be cleaned as necessary with a fireplace glass cleaner.
We recommend Stove Bright® Gas Appliance Glass
Cleaner by Forrest Paint Co. It is available through your retailer.
Follow the instructions for use and do not clean the glass when it
is hot! If the glass becomes coated with deposits which cannot be
removed it must be replaced.
