To adjust pilot: 

 
1.

 

The adjustment screw can be 
reached through a hole in the 
MANUAL knob (see Figure 15). 

2.

 

Turn the MANUAL knob to the 
ON position. 

3.

 

It is now possible to pierce 
through a film on the cover 
with a screwdriver to reach 
the adjustment screw beneath. 

4.

 

Turn the adjustment screw 
clockwise to decrease or 
counter-clockwise to increase 
pilot flame.

Adjustment 

 
Main Burner Adjustment 

 
The appearance of the main burner 
flame may be adjusted by adjusting 
the primary air shutter and vent 
restrictor.  For use with LP, these 
should be set to their fully open 
settings, and only adjusted if 
necessary to achieve a pleasing 
flame appearance.  To determine if 
the burner flame needs 
adjustment, view the flame pattern 
with the valve output at its highest 
setting.  Allow unit to operate for 
10 minutes to allow the flame 
pattern to stabilize, then observe 
flame pattern and adjust as 
necessary.  A periodic visual check 
of the burner flame should be 
performed.  Flame pattern should 
resemble Figure 16. There are 
several guidelines to aid in 
determining if the flame pattern is 
correct: 
1.

 

Flames should not be dirty, 
smoky, sooty, or lick the top of 
the stove. 

2.

 

Flames should not rise off the 
pan burner; this is called 
“lifting”. 

3.

 

Flames should not impinge 
heavily on logs. They should 
“fit” through the pre-formed 
spaces designed in the log set. 

Generally, the more air (open 
shutter), the bluer the flame. Less 
air (closed shutter) results in a 
more yellow flame, but too little air 
will result in incomplete 
combustion, low efficiency and 
sooting.  There are two simple 
guidelines to aid in determining 
the correct flame pattern: 
1.
