INSTALLING OUTER PANELS
1.
The four outer decorative panels are
secured to the fire-place with Philips
head screws. The top and bottom
panels are secured to the fireplace
mounting plate with sheet metal
screws. All other screws are Philips
head machine screws.
2.
Install the top panel first. Align the
three holes along the rear edge of the
panel with pilot holes along the top
edge of the fireplace mounting plate.
3.
Insert and tighten the three sheet
metal screws. A magnetic nut driver is
helpful.
4.
Install the left side panel next. Align
the three holes along the rear edge of
the panel with the PEM nuts along the
edge of the fireplace mounting plate.
Insert the three Philips head screws but
do not fully tighten.
5.
Locate the fastener hole at the top front
edge of the left side panel and align
with the PEM nut in the front of the top
panel. Insert the Philips head screw.
6.
Make sure the edges of the panel are
aligned with the edges of the top panel
and mounting plate and tighten all four
Philips head screws.
7.
Position the right side panel so it aligns with the three PEM nuts on the mounting plate and the
front PEM nut on the top panel. Align the rear and top panel edges with the adjoining parts and
insert and tighten the four Philips head screws.
8.
Install the bottom panel next. Guide the rear flange on the panel upward until the mounting
holes in the flange line up with the pilot holes in the mounting plate.
9.
Attach the panel to the mounting plate using sheet metal screws along the back edge of the
panel. Note: It may make installation of the sheet metal screws easier if you remove the two
lower surround mounting brackets from the front of the fireplace, replace brackets before
operating fireplace. A magnetic nut-driver will also be helpful.
10.
Attach the bottom panel to the side panels by aligning the fastener holes in the bottom panel
with the PEM nuts in the front corners of the bottom flanges on the side panels. Insert and
tighten the two Philips head screws.
Only trim kit(s) supplied by the manufacturer shall be used in the installation of this appliance.
