gas line and test all gas joints from the gas meter to the
fireplace for leaks. Use a solution of 50/50 water and
soap solution or a gas sniffer.
4. To adjust flame height, turn HI/LO knob to HI to get
maximum pressure to burner. Turn HI/LO knob to
LO to get minimum pressure. nOte: To make the
process of checking the gas pressure easier, unfas-
ten the two screws which secure the gas valve to
the side of the firebox and bring forward. [Remove
the glass to allow the valve to come forward. (Refer
to Page 45 for glass removal.)] When done, you must
refasten the gas valve into place.
5. To check gas pressures at valve, turn captured screw
counter clockwise 2 or 3 turns and then place tubing
to pressure gauge over test point. Turn unit to high.
