INSTALLATION

BRICK FLUE BAFFLE &

SECONDARY AIR TUBE

INSTALLATION

The flue baffle system located in the upper area

of the firebox is removable to make cleaning

your chimney system easier. The brick baffles

must be installed prior to your first fire.

Smoke

spillage and draft problems may occur if the

baffles are improperly positioned. Check the

position of the brick baffles on a regular basis as

they can be dislodged if too much fuel is forced

into the firebox.

FIREBRICK ASSEMBLY

Firebrick is included to extend the life of your

insert and radiate heat more evenly. Check to

see that all firebricks are in their correct posi-

tions and have not become misaligned during

shipping.

DRAFT CONTROL

Before establishing your first fire, it is important

that you fully understand the operation of draft

control. The draft control rod is on the left side

of the Insert and it controls the intensity of the

fire by increasing or decreasing the amount

of air allowed into the firebox. To increase the

draft, slide the rod to the left and to decrease

the draft, slide the rod to the right.

1) If the two air tubes are installed continue

on to Step 2), if not, follow the instructions

below. Install the air tube into the holes in the

side channels. The notch goes on the right

hand side with the air holes facing toward

the door. Slide the tube into the left hand

side, as far as possible and then bring it back

into the hole on the right hand side until it

locks into position. If the tube will not slide

in easily simply use a pair of vise grips or

pliers and tap it into place with a hammer. A

tighter fit will ensure the tube will not move

when the unit is burning.

2) Slide the left baffle brick over the front air

tube and then slide it back over the rear air

tube.

3) Tilt the left baffle brick up on top of the side

channel and it will leave enough room to

position the right baffle brick in the same

manner as Step 1) above. Then reposition

the left baffle brick flat on the air tube.

4) Important: push both baffle bricks so

they are tight against the side walls and

to the back.

Note: When getting the chimney cleaned,

remove the baffle bricks for access

to the flue, then replace them when

cleaning is completed.

As well as a primary and glass wash air system,

the unit has a full secondary draft system that

allows air to the induction ports at the top of the

firebox, just below the flue baffle.

WARNING: To build a fire in ignorance or to

disregard the informa tion contained in this

section can cause serious permanent dam-

age to the unit and void your warranty.
