Lighting Instructions:
1. Bleed all air from piping leading to control. Carefully re-tighten connection.
2. Turn CONTROL KNOB pointer to "OFF" position. Wait 5 minutes before lighting.
3. Turn CONTROL KNOB pointer to "PILOT" position. Depress CONTROL KNOB and hold down 60 seconds after lighting pilot
burner. Release CONTROL KNOB. Pilot will remain lighted.
4. Turn CONTROL KNOB partially towards the "ON" position. After gas fills burner pan medium, burner will light. Dial may then be
turned to full "ON" or to desired flame height
5. If main or pilot burner extinguishes, turn CONTROL KNOB to "OFF" position. Wait five minutes and repeat above lighting
procedure from step 1.

Pilot Adjustment:
1. Adjust Pilot if necessary. With narrow long stem screw driver, turn P I L O T
ADJUSTMENT SCREW clockwise to reduce size of pilot flame or counterclockwise
to increase flame. Correctly adjusted pilot flame should be steady and soft blue
surrounding approximately 1/2 inch of thermocouple tip. Never permit tip to exceed a
dull red temperature.
NOTE: Ensure Right Front Log position does not allow burner flame to come in contact with Pilot
Assembly. Direct burner flame on Pilot Assembly may will cause nuisance pilot shut-off or damage to pilot.

Burner Orifice
Burner Orifice:
Burner Orifice is located at valve output fitting.
NOTE: Maximum flame height can be adjusted by changing orifice size, e.g., a
larger orifice results in a larger flame.
NOTE: Over sizing Propane Orifice may result in improper air mixing causing
excessive soot formation on the logs.
Heat Shield:
Heat shield is [laced over the valve assembly by Inserting the notched portion of
the Heat Shield between the Valve outlet 3 / 8 M I P x 3 / 8
Heat Shield
F I P Elbow and the 3 / 8 F l a r e d x 3 / 8 M I P

Ensure that the Heat Shield is over the VALVE
ASSEMBLY. Pilot tubing and wire leads should be
behind the shield exiting towards the rear.
CAUTION: The safety control valve
must be protected to a max ambient
temperature of 175° F. Excessive
heat to the valve is indicated by
melted plastic on the valve body.
