INSTALLATION & SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS
(
continued)
Depending on the model chosen your fire might be a different shape and size to the one shown below, but for all models begin by
applying a layer of black bark chipping over the vermiculite bedding and the black burner insulation pad. This is to break up the
regular appearance of the base. Take care to ensure that the burner slots are kept clear, as shown in the photograph below:
TIPS
– PLEASE READ BEFORE PROCEEDING TO THE RELEVENT LOG OR COAL LAYOUT
Coal effect:
a. Much of the appearance of the coal effect is achieved by keeping the coals well spaced out.
Log effect:
a. The same log set is used for all models. All 5 logs are used in each model, but a specific layout has been devised to suit
each basket.
b. Where logs rest on the fire bed they should be supported by a bark chipping or chippings. This achieves a good airflow
around the log in order to avoid sooting.
c. Depending on the basket chosen the logs may be supported in places against the top of the fire basket bars.
d. The last two logs laid in all cases are the central left hand straight log and the central right hand Y shaped log, which has
a very short branch and a longer branch. Place the Y shaped log so that the very short branch lays on the straight log in
such a way that the longer branch is not resting on any other logs, and with a gap of around 60mm between the straight
log and the long branch of the Y log.
