Before you begin: If you are installing logs onto the VFDR30 

model, this burner assembly place is supplied with a set of seven 

ceramic fiber logs. Do not handle these logs with your bare hands. 

Always wear gloves to prevent skin irritation from ceramic fibers. 

After handling logs, wash your hands gently with soap and water 

to remove any traces of fiber.
The positioning of logs is critical to safe and clean operation of 

this burner assembly. Sooting and other problems may result if the 

logs are not properly and firmly positioned on the burner assembly. 

Refer to 

Figure 14

 and 

Figure 15

burner. Align notches on front logs with locator tabs in base.

2.  Place middle log (#4) between front and rear loop of burner. 

Note: do not place on top of pilot assembly.

3.  Place rear log (#5) on rear log shelf. Bottom flange is to be 

placed between the log shelf and burner tube.

4.  Place bottom front twig (#6) onto flat areas of middle log (#4) 

and bottom end of front twig to the back side of the grate tang

6.  After all logs are properly positioned, place small "dime" size 

pieces of Rockwool lightly across the front burner tube ports. 

Place the ember material (Rockwool pieces) side by side. Do 

not stack more than one layer of embers across the burner 

ports. No more than (1) one packet of ember material (part
