Service - Jøtul F 270 Series Installation Instructions With Technical Data

Mounting the flue pipe
The product is delivered from the factory with the smoke outlet
mounted for top flue outlet. If one wants the pipe to come out
of the rear the following should be done:
• Lift off the top plate
• Lift off the back heat shield (cast iron). This hangs on 3 screws,
two above and one below. See fig. 9.
• Use a ball-pane hammer and knock out the cut-out in the
heat shield from the inside.
• Swap the cover and the smoke outlet
these.
• Re-attach the rear heat shield (cast iron) by first hanging it
on the top screws. Lift it up slightly and then lower it onto
the lower screw.
• Put the flue pipe into place inside the smoke outlet and seal
tightly with a gasket.
Be aware of the fact that connections must have a certain
flexibility in order to prevent movement in the installation
leading to cracks.
N.B. A correct and sealed connection is very important for the
proper functioning of the product.
