HEARTH KIT ASSEMBLY AND
INSTALLATION
Kit Assembly - Ramp Pan Burner
1. Determine which side gas line feeds into
fireplace. This log set is factory set up for
right side (facing) gas feed. If your gas line
is on the right side, go to Installation and
Gas Connection. If your gas line is on the
left side of fireplace, proceed with steps 2
through 4 below.
2. Remove nuts securing gas inlet venturi to
bottom of burner.
Test Pressures Equal To or Less Than
3. Remove venturi from pan taking care not to
1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa)
damage gasket between venturi and pan.
1. Close equipment shutoff valve (see Fig-
ure 5).
4. Reverse direction of venturi and reattach to
bottom of pan using factory nuts.
2. Pressurize supply piping system by either
using compressed air or opening main gas
valve located on or near gas meter.
3. Check all joints from gas meter to equip-
ment shutoff valve (see Figure 6). Apply
noncorrosive leak detection fluid to gas
joints. Bubbles forming show a leak.
4. Correct all leaks at once.

TESTING BURNER FOR LEAKS
1. Generously apply noncorrosive leak detec-
tion fluid to all connections.
2. Light burner with shutoff valve no more than
half open and holding a match slightly in
front of pan (see Lighting Instructions,
page 10).
3. Inspect all connections for bubbles, raw gas
odor, or flame from any area other than
burner (leaks). If leaks are detected, shut
off gas valve immediately. Tighten, or reas-
