HEARTH BRICK PLACEMENT

Place the hearth brick centered in front of burner and slide back until it hits the stops on the right and left of

burner.

ROCK WOOL PLACEMENT

1. Place rock wool on burner to provide glowing

embers. For best results, pull the rock wool apart

into pieces the size of a dime or smaller.

2. Distribute one layer of rock wool to cover the

burner. Figure 61

3. Place the logs on the burner. See Log Placement

below. Light unit and after 15 minutes, check

burner flame and glow. See Burner Flame, page

49.

If the flame is blue and only in the center, turn off unit

and let cool. After unit cools, remove logs. If the back

holes are clear, add more rock wool to the center of

the burner. Replace logs and check flame again. Save

left over rock wool to refresh when cleaning later. Too

much rock wool can disturb the flame and cause soot-

ing on the glass or logs.

LOG PLACEMENT

1. Place the rear log (#1) in place by sliding it over

the rear pins on the right and the left.

2. Place the right front log (#3) over the burner and

grate by matching the hole on the bottom of the log

with the pin on the burner. Also match the cut-out

on the bottom of the log with the bars on the grate.

NOTE: When this log is in place pull towards the

front.

3. Place the left front log (#5) over the burner and

grate by matching the holes on the bottom of the

log with the pin on the burner. Also match the

cut-out on the bottom of the log with bars on the

grate. NOTE: When this log is in place the branch

on this log will lay over the rear log on the left. Pull

log forward.

4. Place the right upper log (#2) at an angle toward

the burner by matching the rectangular notch on

the bottom of this log with the rectangular protru-

sion on the right front log (#3). The burned side of

this log will point toward the burner.

to cover the burner. This could cause

the flame to burn poorly and may lead

to sooting.
