INSTALLING BURNER TO FIREBOX:
1. Position Grate/Burner assembly into solid fuel firebox
with the front burner located directly under the opening
for the best flame appearance. (DO NOT have any of
the burner assembly outside the firebox.)
2. Drill two 3/16" diameter holes as indicated in the dia-
gram, approximately 1 1/2" deep.
3. Anchor the burner assembly to the floor using the 2
screws provided.

INSTALLING GAS LINE

Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the
flu, with headaches, dizziness, and / or nausea. If you
have these signs, the heater may not be working prop-
erly. Get fresh air at once! Turn off gas appliance. Have
appliance serviced. Some people (such as pregnant
women, persons with heart or lung disease, persons with
anemia and those at high altitudes) are more affected by
carbon monoxide than others. Make certain you read and
understand all warnings. Place Burner Base / Grate As-
sembly in center of firebox and connect flexible gas line to
incoming black iron pipe gas line.
Do not connect appliance before pressure testing gas
piping. Damage to gas valve may result and an unsafe
condition may be caused.
Prepare incoming black iron gas line with Teflon tape or
pipe joint compound (check with local codes about the
use of Teflon tape). Compounds used on threaded joints
of gas piping shall be resistant to the action of Liquefied
Petroleum (LP or Propane) and should be applied lightly
to ensure excess sealant does not enter the gas line.
Complete your gas installation by connecting incoming
gas line to regulator. Secure all joints tightly with wrench
but do not over-tighten. If a flexible gas line is used,
take care not to kink connector. The burner pressure is
controlled by the regulator. Check pressure at the
cont'd on page 9
