B. Disassemble Firebox & Outer Can
For easier field installation the outer can is installed without
the firebox so connecting to the flue has greater access.
The firebox slides into the outer can once the flue collar is
attached to the stove pipe/liner and optional outside air flex
pipe is installed.
1. Remove the flue collar by cutting the wire ties. Set the
flue collar and attachment bar aside.
2. Remove the 2 screws holding the timer assembly in
place and remove the timer (Figure 18.1).
3. Remove the 2 Phillips head bolts underneath the ash
lip which holds the firebox in place.
4. Slide the firebox out of the outer can.
5. Remove the 2 pallet lag bolts.

C. Securing Stove Pipe/Liner to Flue Collar
1. There are 4 already drilled holes in the flue collar 90
degrees apart. Attach the flue collar to the stove pipe/
liner. If the seal is questionable use high temperature
sealant such as stove mastic (Figure 18.3).
2. Attach gasket to bottom side of flue collar with a thin
coat of silicone.

D. Optional Offset Adapter Installation
In some installations the flue collar and stove pipe/liner do
not always align properly. This situation may be remedied
by using the optional offset adapter. See Appliance
Dimensions page for the amount of distance this accessory
can telescope between the flue collar and stove pipe/liner.
1. Remove the cast iron flue collar from the appliance
and flip it upside down. Using the larger #7 drill bit
supplied, drill through all 8 countersunk locations
(Figure 18.4).
2. Slide the gasket over the flue collar and attach it to the
offset adapter using the 8-32 flathead screws provided
(Figure 19.1 on page 19).
3. Adjust the offset adapter to desired distance. Drill holes
through the lower chamber as shown in Figure 19.2
on page 19 using the small drill bit #26 provided.
4. Cut the gasket to the proper length and slide in
between the upper and lower chambers centered on
the screw holes. Attach the upper and lower chambers
with screws provided (Figure 19.3 on page 19).
5. Repeat the process on the bottom side.
