It is very important to install the logs exactly
as instructed. Do not modify logs. Only use
logs supplied with heater.
1. Place one-piece log set on grate to fit
as illustrated in Figure 18 for Vintage
Oak model and Figure 19 for Golden
Oak or Birch models. Make sure bot-
tom of front log is in front of “U”-
shaped cutout in center of chassis (see
Figure 16 for Vintage Oak model and
Figure 17 for Golden Oak or Birch
models). Log will fit securely on chas-
sis.
Note: 36" and birch models have
more features but fit on the chassis the
same.
IMPORTANT:
Make sure log
does not cover any burner ports.
2. Place lava rock around base of heater.

CAUTION: After installation
and periodically thereafter, check
to ensure that no flame comes in
contact with any log. With the
heater set to High, check to see if
flames contact any log. If so, re-
position logs according to the
log installation instructions in this
manual. Flames contacting logs
will create soot.
