Make sure that there will be at least 50mm
clearance between the end of the spigot and knee of
the fireback for flue gases. Also make sure that the
spigot will pass through the closure plate by a mini-
mum of 15 mm. It can be extended by up to 150 mm (6")
to ensure this requirement is met using a purpose-
made extension or suitable piece of flue pipe. Cut a
closure plate from sheet aluminum or steel to just
cover the appliance opening to be used. It is also
possible to use other fireproof materials providing
they are properly supported and sealed and can be
removed annually for inspection and clearing of the
flue. Cut a spigot hole as shown in the fig. 9. Fix the
closure plate to the wall or appliance and seal it
correctly to the wall. The plate must

appliance will not work correctly and may cut out
repeatedly if the sealing of the appliance and flue is
not correct.
Remember, if the closure plate extends beyond
the sides or top of the stove, a non-combustible
decorative panel can be fitted to cover the area. The
closure plate can then be fitted to this. Marble in-fill
panels are a common example. Install the appliance
and connect to the gas supply and carry out a smoke
test on the flue as described in the relevant section of
this manual.
Assembly Prior To Installation
The product is delivered in 1 package. In the firebox
you will find the propane fuel conversion kit, four
decorative pipe brackets, and a log set that includes a
bag of textured embers.
1. Remove the Top Plate of the stove by simply lifting
it straight off of the stove body.
2. To open the firebox, disengage the two Glass Frame
Latches located on top of the firebox. Pull each
handle forward to clear the latch from the notch in
the frame.See fig. 10.
3. Remove the parts wrapped in packaging. Use gloves
to handle the ceramic logs, as they can cause skin
irritation.
4. Familiarize yourself with the installation require-
ments specified in this manual, before beginning
the installation. If the product is going to be used
with Propane G31 rather than G20 natural gas, it
should be converted now. See the instructions
supplied with the conversion kit.
