INSTALLING GAS LOG HEATER INTO STOVE

1. Remove log and gas log heater from carton. 

Note:

 Do not pick up gas log

heater by the burner itself. This could damage heater. Always handle the gas
log heater by the heater base only.

2. Remove all protective packaging applied to log and gas log heater for shipment.
3. Check all items for any shipping damage. If damaged, promptly inform dealer

where you bought heater.

4. If not already removed, remove back panel from assembled stove body (see

Figure 5, page 9). Use an adjustable wrench or a 10 mm socket. Remove six
(6) bolts and washers. Keep bolts and washers to reattach back panel later.

5. Set gas log heater inside stove. Make sure control knob extension passes

through bottom front opening (see Figure 13).

6. Align outside holes on heater base with four (4) mounting holes on the stove

bottom (see Figure 13).

7. Fasten heater base to stove bottom with #10-24 x .50 bolts and hex nuts

provided with gas log heater (see Figure 14). Attachment hardware is factory
packed inside plastic bag with installation manual and owner’s registration
card. Push bolt through heater base mounting hole and through stove bottom.
Connect hex nut to bolt on underside of stove bottom. The bolt hex head is for
a 5/16" socket and the hex nuts are for a 3/8" socket. If sockets are not avail-
able, use adjustable wrenches.
