Restrictor Plate Adjustment for Extended Pipe Runs
This stove is shipped with a restrictor plate in the Parts Bag.
Adjustments can be made by loosening the adjustment
screw to allow the restrictor plate to slide up or down.
(Figure 9) A guide for usage is shown in Figure 10.
NOTE: Some installations may require some adjustment by
the installer for optimum flame appearance. Optimum flame
appearance is a flame that is not subject to tall, dirty yellow
flames producing soot or flames lifting off of the ember bed
ports.
