System Check
1. PURGING THE GAS LINE:
When lighting the appliance
for the first time, it will take a few moments to clear
the gas line of air. Once this purge is complete, the
appliance will operate as described in the lighting
instructions. See the inside back cover of this manual
or the stove Rating Plate attached the bottom of the
stove. Subsequent burner starts will not require purg-
ing the gas line unless the supply line is shut off.
2. PILOT FLAME:
You can monitor the pilot flame
through the view port located at the rear of the Right
Log. The pilot flame should be steady - not lifting or
floating. The flame should be blue in color around
the pilot hood, with traces of yellow toward the outer
edges.
The pilot flame should engulf the top 3/8” of the
thermopile (to generate millivolt current) and the
top 1/8” of the thermocouple. The pilot flame should
project out of all three pilot hood ports 1” and project
over to the burner plate carry-over ports. See fig. 38
and 38a.
Figure 39. Flame appearance on the “high” setting after
approximately 15 to 20 minutes burning.
WARNING:
AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENTS SHOULD ONLY BE PER-
FORMED BY A QUALIFIED PROFESSIONAL SERVICE
TECHNICIAN.
Figure 38. Proper pilot flame appearance.
3. BURNER ADJUSTMENT:
This stove is equipped with a
variable gas control valve that allows easy adjustment
of the flame height appearance and heat output. To ad-
just the flame between the HI and LOW setting, rotate
the HI/LOW knob, located in the center of the valve
face.
Flame height will adjust approximately 1” to 2”
between the LOW and HIGH settings. See fig. 39.
NO SMOKE OR SOOT SHOULD BE PRESENT. CHECK
LOG PLACEMENT IF ANY SOOT OR SMOKE IS PRESENT.
IF SOOT OR SMOKE PERSISTS, THE AIR SHUTTER MAY
NEED TO BE ADJUSTED.
See Air Shutter/Flame Appearance section of this man
-
ual for proper air shutter settings and adjustments.
Note: the more offsets there are in the vent system,
the greater the need for an air shutter adjustment. See
page 20.

CAUTION:
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ALTER THE FLAME APPEARANCE
BY POSITIONING THE GAS VALVE CONTROL IN ANY
OTHER THAN THE FULL “ON” POSITION.
