UNPACKING AND PLACING THE VIVA L
By now, you will have removed the shipping carton from the base pallet. The VIVA L is shipped in a
specially designed shipping carton. Cut the strapping that secures the stove to the pallet and remove the
wooden cribbing from the top of the stove. Remove the plastic bag that covers the stove. Remove the
package of logs and accessories that is packed in the space under the stove and set aside. Lift the stove up
and off the pallet. The best place to lift is at the base of firebox. Note: The stove front and the glass
frame/glass assembly have to be removed in order to install the logs. Removing them now will reduce the
weight and make it easier to lift the stove. Remove transit packing material.
With the stove front removed and set aside, remove the glass panel and frame assembly. Remove any
packing material from inside the firebox.
The VIVA L is equipped with leveling bolts to make it easier to install the stove on an irregular surface. The
leveling bolts are shipped in the accessory box that was packed in the space under the firebox. Once you have
unpacked the leveling bolts, install them in the base plate of the stove. This will require a helper as the stove
must be tipped up on the base, first to one side and then the other to allow the leveling bolts to be screwed in
from the bottom. For right now, be sure all four leveling bolts are screwed in all the way. They can be
adjusted later. See the illustration below for leveling bolt locations.
Move the VIVA L to location where it will be installed. Using as little adjustment as possible for each
leveling bolt, adjust them as needed to get the stove as level as possible both side to side and front to back.
Once the VIVA L is in its final location, remove the
transit tape
from the relief door. The relief door can be
identified by the five vertical ribs on its top surface and is located directly adjacent to the glass frame latches
on the top of the firebox. This tape must be removed to insure proper operation of the relief door.
Also, remove the tie wrap that secures the control access panel during shipping. It is located on the right side
of the panel and can be cut with a knife or scissors.

LOGS AND EMBERS
When arranging the Media into the Firebed, it is imporant that the Pilot area is kept clear and that no Media enters the
Pilot shield. The Pilot area includes the the pilot shield and the top of the burner to the first slot.
When comissioning or servicing the Appliance Cross Lighting must be checked to ensure smooth lighting of the main
burner from the Pilot Flame and smooth lighting of the effect burners from the main Burner.
Fuel arrangements shown below are for the Double burner, featuring the 2
nd
Thermocouple. Ensure that when fitting
the fuel beds, the 2
nd
thermocouple remains clear of the Fuel Bed media, as shown in the diagrams.
