INSTALLING LOG SET

Before proceeding, make sure gas control 

valve is in the OFF position. Logs have been 

shrink wrapped on a cardboard backing 

to prevent breakage during shipping. Cut 

around perimeter of each log and pull gently 

on shrink wrap to expose log. Do not pull on 

log to release it from shrink wrap as this may 

damage logs.
