Finishing

A. Template
A cardboard template of the front is printed on the outside
of the shipping box. Cut out the template along the out-
side of the line for use in your installation. A metal tem-
plate (see catalog) is available for more durable contin-
ued use, remaining accurate over time. Both measure 1/8
in. (3 mm) larger all the way around than the actual front.
Tools Required: 1/8 in. Allen wrench.
• Remove the doors on the fi replace (if installed).
• Remove the screws from the fascia and remove fascia
from the fi replace (if installed). Save the screws. Store
the fascia in a safe, protected area to prevent scratching
or other damage.
• Install the template on the front of the fi replace (Figure
7.1) using the screws saved in the previous step.
You are now ready to continue your installation with the
desired decorative material. The template also serves as
a protective covering and prevents damage to the front of
the fi replace.
NOTE: The decorative fascia must be removable for future
serviceability of the automatic combustion control.
