Surround Panel Installation - Jøtul GI 450 DV Installation And Operation Instructions Manual

Surround Panel Installation

Complete the venting and gas line installation before
installation of the surround and riser bar.
RISER BAR: The 2" riser bar is used in conjunction with
the standard surround, and is only needed in the event
that the fireplace opening is between 27 1/2" and 29
1/2" high. The riser bar can be used in any installation
if desired. See fig. 22.
Start with the insert slightly pulled out of the fireplace.
1. If the riser bar is to be used the insert must be lifted
2" off the floor of the fireplace to allow for the riser
bar to fill the space below the bottom grill assembly.
Exception: in raise fireplace installations the riser
bar may extend toward the hearth. See fig. 22.
2. This can be done through the use of the four leveling
legs that are included with the unit. One leveling leg
is threaded through the floor in each corner of the
fireplace.
3. Any other non-combustible material can be used to
lift the unit the necessary 2" for the riser bar.
NOTE: DUE TO THE WEIGHT OF THE SURROUND AND
RISER BAR IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO UTILIZE THE
STABILIZER BAR THAT IS SHIPPED WITH THE UNIT.
THIS STABILIZER ATTACHES TO THE OUTSIDE OF THE
FIREBOX AND WILL BRACE THE UNIT AGAINST THE
FIREPLACE LINTEL PREVENTING THE UNIT FROM
LEANING FORWARD. See figs. 22 and 22A.
