Installing Log

from the firebox cavity.

cessories, page 27. Install optional
blower now. Follow installation instruc-
tions provided with blower.
4. Remove log packaging material and
discard packaging. Gently place log on
burner support (see Figure 3). The log
should fit flat against top of burner sup-
port and log locator tabs fit into the slots
under the log. Do not allow log to con-
tact flame. If flame contacts log, soot
will be created.
