inability to maintain a fire. Smoke spillage can also set
off smoke alarms.
2. Stove must be secured to the mobile home structure by
bolting pedestal through hearth pad and into floor. For
leg models, use 1/4” (6mm) lag bolts with the appropriate
length for your application.

wire or equivalent and terminated at each end with N.e.C.
approved grounding device.
