If operating with the door open, some fuels may create
carbon monoxide, which can be hazardous or fatal to your
health. Do not burn anything but clean dry firewood
FRONT DOOR: The front door allows you to load wood
into your Fireplace Insert; a fixed handle allows you to
operate the front door and allows you to latch the front
door closed. The front door can be reversed to open from
either side. To open the door, lift the handle to the 2
o'clock (or 10 o'clock for RH mounted door) position
and pull the door. To latch the doors, push the door
closed tightly then lower the handle to the 4 o'clock (8
o'clock for RH mounted door) position. Pull on the door
handle to make sure it is properly latched.
Reversing the door (Refer to Figure 9)
To switch the door to open from the right, simply remove
the ash lip assembly, and front facade. Remove the two
Phillips head screws holding the door hinges on (A+B in
Figure 9) (use caution, once the last screw is removed
the door will be loose in your hands) Be careful not to

PRIMARY AIR CONTROL: The handle is located on the
front bottom center of the Fireplace Insert. The primary
air control allows you to regulate the amount of air
entering the firebox. Generally, the more air allowed into
the firebox, the faster and hotter the rate of burn;
conversely, less air creates a slower burn. To fully open
the primary air intake, push the handle as far as it will go
to the left toward the firebox; push the handle as far as it
will go to the right, away from the firebox to close the
primary air control.
INSTALLING AND OPERATING THE BLOWER
When using the optional blower, follow the instructions
that are packaged with the blower, to install and operate.
The power cord can be routed to the left or right of the
insert, assuming that you follow the instructions provided.
