6.
Next check that the brackets on the mounting plate that actually hold the fireplace are level,
again using a spirit level. If the brackets are not perfectly level, you can adjust the right bracket
by loosening the bracket fasteners and moving the bracket until it is level with the left bracket.
Remember to tighten the bracket fasteners once you have achieved a level position. (refer to
images on following page)
7.
You are now ready to install the fireplace on the mounting plate, this will require a helper as
the fireplace is quite heavy.
8.
While looking in from the sides, guide the upper and lower mounting tabs on the back of the
fire-place into the corresponding brackets on
the mounting plate. When the tabs and
brackets are aligned, push the fireplace down
and in to engage the tabs in the brackets.
Note: The weight of the fireplace is carried
only on the top brackets. The bottom brackets
function simply to keep the bottom of the
fireplace from moving. Refer to the adjacent
illustration.
9.
Once more, confirm that the fireplace is level
using the spirit level used in the preceding
steps. The fireplace is now ready for the gas
connection to be made.
GAS CONNECTION
1.
Verify that the gas type is correct for the
fireplace by looking at the rating plate that is
attached to the right side of the fire-place,
adjacent to the control battery pack. Note: The
fireplace is shipped from the factory equipped to
burn the fuel listed on the rating plate. Fuel
conversion in the field is not allowed.
2.
The gas connection should now be made from
the gas supply line to the 3/8 OD Tube fitting on
the fireplace. Only a qualified gas installer is to
make the connection.
3.
The gas supply piping should have a separate
gas shut-
off valve and a 1/8” NPT plugged
tapping upstream of the valve. We recommend
installing a shut-off valve between the gas supply line where it penetrates the wall / fireplace
mounting plate and the inlet on the fireplace. This will allow gas to be shut-off to the fireplace
by simply removing the fireplace surround to gain access to the shut-off valve.
