1) Attach the nailing tabs to the corner
posts using the 2 sheet metal screws
supplied. Secure through the centre
of the top and bottom slots in the nail-
ing tab and then through the existing
holes in the corner posts.
If there are no existing holes, follow
these instructions:
Position the nailing tab so that the front
face is offset with the front edge of the
corner post (approx. ½"). Centre the
nailing tab vertically on the corner
post.
Figure 43 a.
Drill through the centre of the top and
bottom slots in the nailing tab. Secure
using the two sheet metal screws
supplied. This allows the nailing tab
to slide back and forth for desired fram-
ing. Figure 43 b.
2) To determine the final location of the nailing tab
you must first determine the thickness of your finishing
material (i.e. drywall). This will determine the dimension
from the front edge of the corner post to the nailing tab.
Once the nailing tab is in the desired location, drill through
the centre hole of the nailing tab. Secure with a sheet metal
screw*. Figure 43 c.
* Additional set screws may be installed .

Combustible mantle clearance can vary according to the
mantle depth.Use the graph to help evaluate the clearance
needed. Curtains, above the fireplace, must not be posi-
tioned lower than the 2" distance required for the 2" com-
bustible mantle.
These same requirements apply to any
combustibles protruding on either side of the fireplace.
