BRICK REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS

The fi rebox is lined with high quality fi rebrick which has excep-
tional insulating properties.  There is no need for a grate, 
simply build a fi re on the fi rebox of your insert.

1

.  Be certain coals are completely cold.  Remove all old 

brick and ash from unit and vacuum out fi rebox.

2.  Remove new brick set from box and lay out to THE 

diagram as shown. 

3.  Lay bottom bricks in unit.

4.  Install rear bricks on the top of the bottom bricks.  Slide 

top of bricks under clip on back of fi rebox wall and push 
bottom of brick back.

5.  Install side bricks.  Slide top of brick under clips on side 

of fi rebox and push the bottom of the brick until it is fl ush 
with the side of the unit.

BAFFLE REMOVAL & INSTALLATION

NOTE

:  The baffl e material is 2700° Fiber Board.  Removing hardware exposed to combustion processes can be frustrating.  If 

your reason for removing the baffl e is simply to clean the chimney, you have alternatives which will save time and effort.  Call 
a qualifi ed chimney sweep or an authorized Quadra-Fire dealer for details.

1.   Remove all ash from fi rebox, and extinguish all hot embers before disposal into a metal container.

2.  Remove ceramic blanket from above the baffl e.

3.  With a 3/16” Allen wrench, remove 2 front manifold tube retainer bolts on the air channel under the end of the front tubes.  NOTE:  

Soak the bolts with penetrating oil for at least 15 minutes before trying to remove them. 

Figure 21A.

4.  To remove manifold tubes, slide the tube to one side until one end is out of its hole.  Then, while lifting that end of the fi ber board 

baffl e, pull tube up over the air channel and out of hole at the other end. It is necessary to remove the fi rst two tubes in order to 
remove the baffl e.  

NOTE

:  When replacing the manifold tubes, be sure the tube with the larger holes is placed in the front for 

your insert to operate properly.

5. Slide 

fi ber board baffl e forward to front of stove and straight out through door. 

Figure 21B.

6.  To install the fi ber board baffl e, repeat steps 2 through 4 in reverse.  Be sure the fi ber board baffl e and ceramic blanket are 

pushed back fully into position and the ceramic blanket lays fl at.
