Manifold Removal
and
Installation
• The manifold is shipped attached to the insert, but may
be
removed to facilitate especially tight
installations . See the directions below for installation.
1 Remove the manifold and place it within the fireplace (see the instructions on the following page).
2 Route the
flex vent through the chimney from above (leave
an
extra
3'
(914 mm) at the top).
3 Attach the
flex vent to the manifold (seal with silicone and attach with screws).
4
Place the manifold in
an
upright position (so it rests
on
the manifold legs) and have a partner pull
on
the excess flex vent. Temporarily attach the flex vent to the top of the chimney (leave extra slack).
5 Slide the insert into place, guiding the convection top over the insert until fully in place.
6 After removing any slack from the flex vent, attach the manifold to the appliance.
7 Remove any excess slack
in
the flex line then attach the vent termination .

7 Let the heater burn for fifteen minutes. Adjust the air shutter,
if
necessary, to achieve the correct
looking flame (see the illustration below).
• The air shutter adjusts the amount of air that mixes with the gas before it exits the burner holes. It is
used to fine-tune the flame for differe,nces
in
altitude and vent configuration.
ADJUSTING THE AIR SHUTTER
Pushing to the right gives the
flame less air

it
more orange). Pushing to the
left gives the flame more air, making
it
more blue. For fine adjustments use a
screwdriver to tap the air shutter.

Clean the gold or nickel with denatured alcohol and a soft cloth (make

Yearly Service Procedure
Failure
to
inspect and maintain the heater may lead to improper combustion and a potentially dangerous
situation.
We
recommend the following procedures
be
done
by
a qualified technician.
Check the
pilot flame.
It
should touch approximately 3/8"
of
the top
of
the thermopile and touch the top of the
thermocouple (see illustration below).
If
it
does not, contact your dealer for service.
2
Shut off gas
to
the heater
by
turning the gas control knob
to
"OFF" (see step A under "Starting the Pilot"
on
page
22). Let the heater
cool for
15
minutes. Remove the faceplate (see instructions included with face) and glass
(see page 16).
3 Remove the
log set (NOTE:
the
logs
are
very
fragile
- see page 18).
If
severely deteriorated, replace.
Check the logs for sooting. A small amount
of
soot along the bottom
of
the logs is normal.
If
excessive sooting
is found, the heater
will require adjustment. Contact your dealer.
4 Clean the burner tube (especially the burner holes) and inspect the following:
Check for burner tube holes that are cracked, severely warped, or corroded.
Make sure the burner
assemb
ly is
not warped or damaged.
Check the firebox and area around the
pilot to make sure there
is
no
warping or damage.
If
any problem
is
found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service.
Check the
burner
holes.
Make sure the burner
is not warped or
damaged.
Check
the
walls and ceiling

deterioration.

5 Replace the log set. Replace the glass. Make sure the gasket along the perimeter of the glass contacts the
face of the firebox and forms
an
air-tight seal.
If
it does not, re-align.
If
the glass or glass frame is damaged,
replace
it.
6 Inspect the area behind the access door. Clean
if
necessary. Check the gas control valve and the gas lines.
If
any damage is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service. Clean the air channels and ducts.
7 Start the pilot and turn
on
the main burner. The flames should
be
orange/yellow and not touch the top of the
firebox.
If
the pilot or main burners
do
not burn correctly, contact your dealer for service. Monitor the blower
operation.
8 Remove any debris or vegetation near the vent termination. Contact your
dealer
if
any sooting or deterioration
is
found near the vent termination.
