Connect Liner to the Firebox

The vent plate will ultimately locate approximately 19"

above the base of the fireplace once inserted.

1. Trim the liner accordingly so it will not be too long

once the firebox in raised.

2. Connect the liner to the vent plate using the gear

clamp provided.

3. Stretch the liner down and slide the firebox onto the

vent plate.

4. Secure the vent plate to the firebox using 2 screws

through the front tab.

NOTE: When installing into larger fireplaces, the RF24

may be connected to the liner while sitting out on the

hearth or inside the fireplace without removing the vent

plate.

The support legs may also be left in place if the

fireplace is large enough.

If the liner is connected to the firebox on the hearth, it

will be necessary to pull the slack liner up from the top

of the chimney after the firebox is installed.

Reinstall Support Legs

With the firebox recessed behind the smoke curtain of the existing fireplace, raise it and place the individual support

legs under it; the liner will need to compress to do this. Placing a temporary shim under the firebox, such as a 2" x

4", may help while positioning the support legs. Tabs are provided on the support legs to help position them. Fasten

the support legs at the points indicated by the arrows using the bolts provided (2 per side).
