7. Remove outside mounting plate with tube attached from wall.
Mark and cut the extra length of the 6 5/8" (168mm) diameter
tube from the opposite end. Do not crimp or enlarge tube.
8. Attach the 4" (102mm) diameter flue outlet tube onto the rigid
venting system or directly to fireplace. Ensure the 4" (102mm)
diameter flue outlet tube is placed as far as possible onto the
rigid venting system. Mark the 4" (102mm) diameter flue outlet
tube 2 1/2" (64mm) beyond the vinyl siding kit or wall. See
Figure 45. Remove the 4" (102mm) diameter flue outlet tube
from rigid venting system. When installing directly to fireplace,
tape gasket needs to be used.
9. Mark or wrap tape completely around the tubes at the marked
points to help in making a true cut. Do not crimp or enlarge
tubes.
10. From outside: Push the 6 5/8" (168mm) diameter inlet tube/
mounting plate onto end of rigid venting system to correct posi-
tion. Fasten the outside mounting plate to the vinyl siding kit or
wall with (4) 10 x 1 1/2" screws. (Ensure upward slope).
11. From inside: Attach the inlet tube to the collar on the back of
the fireplace (or the rigid venting system) using (3) self tapping
screws.
12. Seal the 4" (102mm) diameter flue outlet tube. Follow instruc-
tions and diagram (Figure 47).
13. Fasten 4" (102mm) diameter flue outlet tube in place. Do not
"twist" the flue outlet tube into the fireplace collar (or rigid
venting system). Hold the tube by the seam and push in using
a perpendicular "rocking" motion. This ensures the seam on the
tube stay intact.
14. Fasten vent cap end using (3) 10 x 1/2" screws to mounting
plate.
