DAMPER ROD EXTENSION INSTRUCTIONS
(When using brick or stone on the face of the
Magnum ZC
)
The
Magnum ZC
comes equipped to handle two types of installations:
1)
The normal installation where there is no brick or stone covering the face of the unit.
2)
The optional installation where there is brick or stone covering the face of the unit.
The unit comes with the damper control rod positioned for installation #1. To change the rod location for
option #2 follow the simple instructions below (SEE FIGURE 14).
1)
Open the upper grill and loosen the set collar #1. Reach down through the top of the 8” flue and
loosen the two U-bolts that hold the damper plate in. (Note the location and direction of the damper
rod handle. It should be facing upward when the damper is open.)
2)
Slide the damper rod through the face toward the front of the unit approximately 2-2 ½”. This will
move the rod out far enough to accommodate the thickness of the brick that goes on the face of the
unit. Be careful not to move the rod too far. There has to be ½” sticking through the back hole of the
unit.
3)
Reverse the procedure tightening the two U-bolts and the set collar. Be sure the spring has adequate
tension on it (#2) so that the damper will stay in place when the rod is moved from different positions.
If you have a particular installation that requires something different than what is provided contact your
local
Magnum ZC
dealer and he will order you what is needed.
