8.  Connect the Flue Collar. :  

From inside the stove, 

reach up and pull the flue collar into place by lining 
up the two 1⁄4” studs in the stove top.  Care should 
be taken to not disturb the gasket which seals the 
collar to the top.  Tighten the two 1⁄4” nuts.  

  Replace the three rear stainless steel air tubes 

by sliding them first to the right and then into the 
mating holes on the left. Secure these in place 
with the stainless steel cotter pins.

  Before installing the front air tube, replace the 

fiber baffle board and ensure it slides all the way 
to the back. There should be a tight fit between 
the board and the iron sides of the stove.

Your Insert’s Controls and What They Do

All Montpelier Medium Insert controls are conveniently 
located on the front. (Fig. 8)
Two controls regulate the performance of your Montpe-
lier Medium Insert:
The 

primary air control

 supplies oxygen for the fire.

The variable-speed 

fan control

, or rheostat, regulates 

the warm air flow into the room.  

Primary Air Control

A single air control regulates the amount of heat the fire 
will produce and how long it will burn.
The 

primary air control lever

 is located on the upper 

left side on the front of the insert. The lever regulates air 
for starting, maintaining, and reviving the fire. 
Generally, more air entering the stove makes the fire 
burn hotter and faster, while less air prolongs the burn.
The Montpelier Medium Insert’s air supply is increased 
when the control lever is moved to the left, and de-

creased when moved to the right.  It may be set any-
where between the two extremes, depending on the 
amount of heat desired. (Fig. 9)
To complement the manual setting of the air control, the 
Montpelier Medium Insert has an integral convection 
air blower that ensures an even delivery of heat at the 
manual setting you select.

The Fans

The convection fan delivers a steady stream of warm air 
into the room. Use the fan speed control to regulate the 
flow of air into the room. A thermal switch will automati-
cally de-activate the fan when the stove cools down. 
When starting a fire in a cold stove, this switch will typi-
cally energize the fan within about 20 minutes, after the 
stove heats up.
The fan speed should be set at “low” (fully closed) when 
operating at low to medium burn rates and may be set 
anywhere between “low” and “high” when operating at 
high burn rates. (Refer to Figure 10 for fan access)     

  Replace the front air tube and secure it in place 

with the cotter pin.

9.  Connect the Blower power cord to the power 

supply. DO NOT ROUTE THE POWER CORD UN-
DER OR IN FRONT OF THE UNIT.

This completes installation of your Montpelier Medium 
Insert.
