Questions and answers
log plate doesnt sit in place properly
To fix a log plate that doesn't sit in place properly on the British Fires New Forest 870, carefully reposition the logs on the fuel bed. Make sure the larger logs are placed in the center and the remaining logs are around them. Ensure they are not touching the rear or sides of the appliance. Also, check that the base layer of crystals and slate effect pieces is spread evenly to support the logs. Proper placement helps stabilize the log plate.
