Decorative Pipe; System Check - Jøtul GF 300 BV Allagash Installation And Operation Instructions Manual

Installing Decorative Pipe
The use of decorative pipe is optional. No decorative
pipe is included with the Jøtul GF 300 BV Allagash,
however, four locator brackets are included with the
stove in the hardware bag. The brackets are used to
center the decorative pipe over the draft hood on
which the pipe rests. Follow the procedure below to
attach the brackets to the stove.
1. Remove the four 1/4" hex head screws that attach
the 4" Flue Collar to the draft hood, but do not
remove the Flue Collar. See Figure 27.
2. Align the "L"- shaped pipe brackets with the holes
on the Flue Collar and attach using the four 1/4"
hex head screws, located in the Misc. Hardware
Bag.
Reminder: Do not use single wall stove pipe as the
vent pipe on this appliance.

System Check

1. PURGING THE GAS LINE: When lighting the appliance
for the first time, it will take a few moments to clear
the gas line of air. Once this purge is complete, the
appliance will operate as described in the lighting
instructions. See the inside back cover of this manual
or the stove Rating Plate attached the bottom of the
stove. Subsequent burner starts will not require purg-
ing the gas line unless the supply line is shut off.
2. PILOT FLAME: See figs. 28 and 28a. You can monitor
the pilot flame through the view port located at the
rear under the Right Log. The pilot flame should be
steady - not lifting or floating. The flame should be
blue in color around the pilot hood, with traces of yel-
low toward the outer edges.
The pilot flame should engulf the top 3/8" of the
thermopile (to generate millivolt current) and the
top 1/8" of the thermocouple. The pilot flame should
project out of the pilot hood 1" at all three ports and
align with the burner carry-over ports.
3. BURNER ADJUSTMENT: This stove is equipped with
a variable gas control valve that allows easy adjust-
ment of the flame height appearance and heat
output. To adjust the flame between the HI and LOW
setting, rotate the HI/LOW knob, located in the center
of the valve face. Fire intensity can be adjusted up to
50% between the LOW and HIGH settings. See fig.
29.
NO SMOKE OR SOOT SHOULD BE PRESENT. CHECK
LOG PLACEMENT IF ANY SOOT OR SMOKE IS PRESENT.
IF SOOT OR SMOKE PERSISTS, THE AIR SHUTTER MAY
NEED TO BE ADJUSTED.
See Air Shutter/Flame Appearance section of this
manual for proper air shutter settings and adjust-
ments. Note: the more offsets there are in the vent
system, the greater the need for an air shutter adjust-
ment. See page 16.
