Placing the Logs
1. Place the back bottom log on the grate behind the top burner
and as far forward (against the top burner) as possible
without touching the pilot. The flat side should be down and
the heat chambers facing the back of the appliance (
Figure
35
).
2. Place the front log on the grate in front of the top burner
pipe with the flat down and the heat chambers toward the
burner pipe and the log as far forward as possible while
keeping the back parallel with the burner pipe (
Figure 36
).
3. Place top logs across the front and back logs in the order
and positions shown in
Figure 40
.
WARNING
Failure to position the parts in
accordance with these diagrams or
failure to use only parts specifically
approved with this appliance may result
in property damage or personal injury.
FOR YOUR SAFETY, READ BEFORE LIGHTING
Do not use this gas appliance if any part has been underwater.
Immediately call for a qualified professional service technician
to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control
system and any gas control which has been under water.
The Mason-lite burner system has a pilot which can be lit by
hand using a match or lighter. When lighting the pilot, follow
these instructions exactly.
BEFORE LIGHTING
, smell all around the burner area for gas.
Be sure to smell next to the floor as some gas is heavier than
air and will settle on the floor. IF YOU SMELL GAS, FOLLOW
THE INSTRUCTIONS ON THE COVER (P. 1).
TO LIGHT THE APPLIANCE WITH THE WALL
SWITCH
Move the ON-REMOTE-OFF wall switch to the
ON
position
(
Figure 41
). This transmits a rapid series of sparks at the pilot
head and will ignite the gas.
TO SHUT DOWN THE GAS APPLIANCE USING THE WALL
SWITCH
Move the switch to the OFF position (
Figure 41
). The gas flow
will cease, and all flames (main burner and pilot) will go out (see
important note below).
OPERATING THE BURNER USING THE REMOTE
Move the wall switch to the REMOTE position and follow the
instructions included in the remote kit for lighting and shutting
down the attached burner.
IMPORTANT
: Do not allow the appliance opening to be
blocked in any way while operating the appliance. The
appliance may be operated with a Mason-Lite screen installed
and
drawn.

MAINTAINING THE PILOT
Your gas appliance is equipped with a safety pilot that will shut
off the gas supply in case the pilot is not burning or functioning
properly. Regularly verify that the pilot is adjusted properly with
the pilot flame hitting the electrodes as shown in
Figure 42.
If
the pilot will not stay lit, call your local gas utility or gas supplier.
TO CHECK UPSTREAM GAS PRESSURE
Unscrew the four (4) screws above and below the control panel
face, then pull the control panel out far enough to expose the
test ports on the valve (
Figure 41
). Unscrew the port marked IN
part way and test.
CAUTION
: Do not kink the flex connectors coming from the
valve while accessing it.
Note
: Pilot flame should encircle top of electrodes.
See instructions cover for example of proper main burner flame
pattern.
