the damper stub on the left side.

To install the catalyst temperature probe, remove the hole
plug from the cast iron wall behind the rear shield, Figure 3.6.
Use two #10 sheet metal screws and bracket supplied, secure
the bracket and probe to the back of your stove, Figure 3.6.
H. Assemble the Removable Insert Handle
The wooden removable insert handle opens and closes the
front doors. Remove after each use, and store it in the handle
holder behind the right front leg. Assemble the handle by
passing the 3-3/8" screw through the wooden shaft and into
the bright metal nub, Figure 3.8. Tighten carefully until snug.
G. Attach Primary Air Thermostat Handle
The primary air thermostat handle is the smaller of the two
black handles. Secure the handle to the stub on the right
side of the stove with an 8-32 x 2" slot head machine screw,
Figure 3.7.
WARNING
!
The flue collar heat shield must be installed in all vertical
installations. The flue collar heat shield is not used when
the flue collar is in the rear exit position.
C. Adjust the Leg Levelers
Lift the stove slightly so there is no weight on the leg while
making the adjustment.
D. Reverse Flue Collar (If necessary)
Reverse the flue collar by removing the two screws that attach
it to the back of the stove. Be sure the gasket around the
flue collar opening is in position when you screw the collar
back onto the stove.
