Drafting Performance

This appliance relies upon natural draft to operate. External forces, such as wind, barometric pressure,
topography, or factors of the home (negative pressure from exhaust fans, chimneys, air infiltration, etc.),
may adversely affect draft. Travis Industries cannot be responsible for external forces leading to less
than optimal performance.

Insert Rollers

Two rollers are built into the back edge of the insert. This allows the insert to be rolled into position by
lifting the front of the insert and pushing it into position (see Figure 4).

Leveling Bolt Installation

Two leveling bolts are pre-installed on the insert to allow for proper leveling within the fireplace. To
access the bolts, remove the back corner firebricks and cover plates (see Figure 5 "a" and "b"). The bolts
are pre-threaded to a weld-nut on the base of the insert. Use a 3/4" socket wrench to screw the bolts
down (clockwise) until the insert is level (see "c").
MASONRY NOTE: You may wish to place a metal plate below the bolt if the masonry is weak.
SEALING THE COVER PLATE: We recommend sealing the cover plate with furnace cement (place on
underside of cover plate).
BOLT LENGTH: The included bolts allow approximately 1" (26mm) of rise. If additional rise is required,
use a longer 1/2-13 thread bolt. Make sure the additional bolt length does not interfere with the cover
plate.
