Install the Bottom Heat Shield
NOTE: The Bottom Heat Shield is required in most
installations. Refer to Floor Protection, in the Dimensions
and Clearances Section of this manual for further details.
1. Align the bottom heat shield holes with the four bolts
removed from the shipping brackets. The outside air
cutout hole should be toward the rear of the stove.
2. Pass all four bolts through the large end of the keyholes
and then pulling the shield forward to engage the smaller
ends of the keyhole slots. (Figure 5.3)
3. Attach the heat shield sides by passing the slots over
the bolt heads. Tighten the hex head bolts.
Figure 5.3 - Attach the bottom heat shield.
Adjust the Leg Levelers
Lift the stove slightly so there is no weight on the leg while
making the adjustment.
The flue collar heat shield must be installed in all vertical
installations. The flue collar heat shield is not used when
the flue collar is in the rear exit position.
Attach the Damper Handle
Use the 1/4"-20 x 3" screw to attach the damper handle to
the damper stub on the left side.
Assemble the Removable Insert Handle
The wooden removable insert handle opens and closes the
front doors. Remove after each use, and store it in the handle
holder behind the right front leg. Assemble the handle by
passing the 3-3/8" screw through the wooden shaft and into
the bright metal nub. (Figure 5.5) Tighten carefully until snug.
