Removal of Cast Iron Panels 

 

The removal of the cast iron panels is a three-step process 

(See figure 9). 

The top panel is 

not bolted to the stove and is removed by simply lifting it straight up. Each side panel is 
held in place with 2 sets of nuts and bolts. After removing the bolts the sides slide back 
and can be removed. Once both sides have been removed you have access to the Versa 
grate and Igniter wires on the right hand side. The Combustion fan, Vacuum switch, High 
limit switch and the P.O.F. switch can be found on the left side. There is no need to 
remove the cast iron panels to access the Convection fan. Wiring connections can be 
reached by removing the sheet metal back panel.
