CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES

IMPORTANT: If unit is converted to a DRI3030TEN-33 or
DRI2530TEN-33 from a DRI3030TEN-40 or DRI2530TEN-40,
the clearances to combustibles can be reduced as shown on
this page.
WARNING: If these units are ever converted back to a
DRI3030TEN-40 or DRI2530TEN-40, ensure that the clearances
are correct for these models.
Minimum Clearances to Combustibles
Minimum clearances include any projections such as shelves, window
sills, mantels, spacers/standoffs or surfaces to combustible construction
etc. above the appliance. Paint or lacquer used to finish the mantel
must be heat resistant in order to avoid discoloration.
The letters in Figure 5 (A through E) show minimum clearances required
from the appliance to combustibles and the minimum projection of the
hearth extension.

Insert Leveling

At each front and rear corner of the insert is an adjustable leg provided
to level the insert should the hearth of the fireplace be uneven. To adjust
the legs, loosen the two 5/32" allen head screws, move the leg to the
desired height and then tighten the screws. Repeat these steps for each
adjusting leg.

ances are 4" less than the DRI3030TEN-40 and DRI2530TEN-40 mantel
