INSTALLING LOGS

 WARNING: Failure to position the parts in accor-

dance with these diagrams or failure to use only parts
specifically approved with this heater may result in
property damage or personal injury.

Each log is marked with a number. These numbers will help you
identify the log when installing. It is very important to install these
logs exactly as instructed. Do not modify logs. Only use logs
supplied with heater.

1.

Place front log (#1) on top of the grate. Make sure the notches
in the bottom of the log fit over the grate prongs (see Figure
24, page 14). Push back of logs flush with metal grate bars.

2.

Rest middle log (#2) behind metal posts on grate assembly. Make
sure the grooves in the bottom of the log fit over the grate. Bring
the log forward next to the metal posts (see Figure 25, page 14).
