Before you begin: if you are installing logs into the DVCD32 or
DVCD36 models then this fireplace is supplied with a set of six
ceramic fiber logs. Do not handle these logs with your bare hands!
Always wear gloves to prevent skin irritation from ceramic fibers.
After handling logs, wash your hands gently with soap and water
to remove any traces of fibers.
The positioning of the logs is critical to the safe and clean operation
of this fireplace. Sooting and other problems may result if the logs
are not properly and firmly positioned in the fireplace. Please refer
to
Figure 56
and
Figure 57
and corresponding WARNING when
completing following log placement instructions.
1. Lower bottom louver, lift and hinge forward.
2. Release two glass frame spring clamps at bottom of firebox.
3. Remove glass frame assembly.
4. Place front logs (#1 and #2) between front grate flange and
main burner. Align notches on front logs with locator tabs in
base.
5. Place middle log (#3) between front and rear loop of burner.
Note: Do not place log on top of pilot assembly.
6. Place rear log (#4) on rear log shelf. Bottom flange of log must
be placed between the log shelf and burner tube.
7. Place right “Y” branch along side of middle log as shown in
Figure 57.
For 32” Fireplaces: Twist branch so that the “Y” portion rests
slightly behind the middle log (#3) and the pin on the branch
goes into the recess on the rear log (#4).
For 36” Fireplaces: Insert the bottom pin on the “Y” portion of
the branch into the recess on the middle log (#3). Rotate the
branch clockwise so that the top pin can be inserted into the
recess on the rear log (#4).
8. Place branch (#5) onto (#1) log and flat area on (#3) log.
For 32” Fireplaces:
The bottom of the branch is to be placed
behind the grate tang that is second from the left.
For 36” Fireplaces:
The bottom of the branch is to be placed
so that it covers the seam between front logs (#1 and #2).
9.
For 32” Fireplaces ONLY:
Place ember chunk (#7) so that the
top slides under the middle log (#3) and the pin on front log #2
goes into the recess on the ember chunk (#7).
10. Place decorative rock in front of grates and sides of main burner
pan.
ATTENTION
: Do not place decorative rock on logs or burner.
The decorative rock should only be placed on the fireplace
floor.
EMBER MATERIAL pLACEMENT ON BURNER
11. After all logs are positioned properly, apply Rockwool ember
material to the front burner port area. To apply, carefully separate
the ember material into small amounts no larger than "dime
size" pieces. Fluffed up pieces one layer thick on top of the
burner generally works best, and will provide the best ember
glow. Do not place ember material more than one layer thick. No
more than (1) small packet of ember material (part no. 15999)
evenly placed on the burner, is recommended on DVCD32 and
DVCD36 models. Using additional ember material will decrease
the amount of ember glow effect. Extra ember material should
be saved for future ember applications as necessary. See
Figure 57.
12. Replace glass frame onto firebox.
13. Secure the two glass frame spring clamps at bottom of
firebox.
14. Close bottom cover. Lift slightly to engage the end tabs into
the slots in fireplace sides to close louver panel.
