GENERAL INFORMATION

This log placement guide has been prepared to present detailed log placement illustrations and provide instruction to assist in the placement of logs at the initial (new appliance) setup and after the annual cleaning and inspection cycles. The information provided here is to be used in conjunction with the Homeowner's Care and Operation Instructions provided together with this document in the appliance literature packet. Please read the Homeowner's Care and Operation Instructions completely before completing the procedures detailed in this placement guide.

INITIAL INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

If the logs are being installed for the first time, the following paragraphs apply:

DO NOT attempt to install the logs until the appliance installation has been completed, the gas line connected and tested for leaks and the initial burner operation has been checked out.

Step 1. Remove the appliance front door.

Step 2. Remove the log set from the interior of the fireplace.

Step 3. Remove the logs from their packaging. Handle logs carefully to prevent breakage.

Step 4. MPD-4035 & MPD-4540 Models - Remove the restraining strap from the grate tines. Ensure the grate is fully inserted into the holes on the firebox rear panel and over the indents on the firebox floor.

GLOWING EMBERS, VERMICULITE, DECORATIVE VOLCANIC STONE AND LOG PLACEMENT

Step 1. Separate the Glowing Embers (Rockwool) into pieces about the size of a quarter (see Figure 1). Keep the pieces fluffed up, not matted.

MPD-3328 & MPD-3530 Models -

Distribute these pieces over the burner as shown in Figure 2. Do not use more than is shown. The glowing embers should not be placed directly over the large burner slots as shown in Figure 2.

MPD-4035 & MPD-4540 Models -

Place the center log (Log No. 1) on the burner as shown on page 2. Distribute the glowing ember pieces at the front of the burner as shown in Figure 3. Do not use more than is shown. The glowing embers should not be placed directly over the large burner slots as shown in

Figure 3.

Note: This appliance is provided with enough Glowing Embers for several applications; do not feel compelled to use all that is in a new bag. For best glowing effect, replace the ember material annually. Replacement Glowing Embers are available (Catalogue Number 88L53).

Step 2. Mound up a portion of the vermiculite (light colored material) in front of the burner and grate. Sprinkle the dark colored decorative volcanic stone on top of the vermiculite in a pleasing pattern. See

Figure 2 - MPD-3328 or MPD-3530, or Figure 3 - MPD-4035 or MPD4540 models.

Position the individual logs as shown below. Logs should be placed in the order shown. Position the rear log on the brackets at the rear of the firebox with the log's notches directly over the brackets. Position the right log (log no. 3) by inserting the pin from the rear log into the hole on its upper end. Place the left log and then the smaller left and right top logs. All logs that have notches to fit over the grate tines should be positioned with these notches directly against the grate. All top logs that rest on lower logs, do so over flattened mounting faces in the bottom logs.

Proper log and twig placement is critical to encourage outstanding flame appearance and prevent sooting.
