NOTICE:
During initial use of the ceramic logs and branches you
will detect an odor as the ceramic logs and branches are cured.
You must secure the gas burner to the fireplace floor. If not, the
entire unit may move when you adjust the controls. Movement
of unit may cause shifting of the gas logs which leads to sooting
and improper burning. Grate movement could cause a gas leak.
Special care is required if you are installing the unit into a
sunken fireplace. You must raise the fireplace floor to allow
access to gas log controls. This will insure adequate air flow
and guard against sooting. Raise the fireplace floor using
noncombustible materials.
Assembly Procedure:
1. Center the gas log unit in the fireplace or firebox. Make
certain the front feet of the grate sit inside the front edge of the
fireplace or firebox.
2. An anchor hole is provided in the two bottom side members of
the grate frame. After centering the grate correctly, mark the
hole positions on the fireplace/firebox floor. Drill two (2) 5/32"
diameter holes approximately 1-1/2" deep for masonry screws
or 1/8" hole for sheet metal screws.
3. Anchor the grate to the fireplace/firebox floor using the screws
provided. Refer to
Figure 13.
Proper installation of the grate is essential to prevent any
movement of the gas logs and controls during operation.
