4. Loosely sprinkle the lava rocks (#6) directly on top

of the burner, between the front and middle logs. Do
not place any ember or lava material behind the
middle logs. (Fig. 22)

5. Engage the sockets in the underside of the top log

(#7) with the pegs on the rear log and the left middle
log as shown in Figure 22.  Ensure that the top log is
positioned properly, relative to the right middle log,
as shown in Figure 23.

Complete the Installation

1. Replace the screen frame or glass frame assem-

bly by resting the bottom edge of the frame on
support brackets below the front opening of the
firebox. Swing the top edge of the assembly toward
the firebox, and center it. Fasten it by closing the
latches over the top left and right edges of the frame.

2. Replace the stove front  by grasping it by the left

and right edges. Lift it so that tabs on the back side
of the top corners engage notches at the top forward
corners of the stove sides. Then gently swing the
bottom of the front panel to a vertical position, and
lower it till prongs on its bottom left and right corners
engage with notches cast into the tops of the forward
legs. (Fig. 24) Test that the front is installed securely
by grasping two of panel’s vertical bars, and pulling
the panel toward yourself. When the panel is in
place properly you should not be able to pull the
bottom of the front toward yourself without also lifting it.

3. Attach the wooden handle to the control door using

the #8-32 x 2” screw from the parts bag. (Fig. 25)

4. Set the screen and the cast-iron grate into the

recess in the stove top.
This completes the installation and assembly of the
Radiance RUVS40.
