INSTALLING GAS LOG
HEATER INTO STOVE
1. Remove log and gas log heater from
carton.
Note: Do not pick up gas log
heater by the burner itself. This could
damage heater. Always handle the gas
log heater by the heater base only.
2. Remove all protective packaging applied
to log and gas log heater for shipment.
3. Check all items for any shipping dam-
age. If damaged, promptly inform
dealer where you bought heater.
4. If not already removed, remove back
panel from assembled stove body (see
Figure 5, page 8). Use an adjustable
wrench or a 10 mm socket. Remove six
(6) bolts and washers. Keep bolts and
washers to reattach back panel later.
5. Set gas log heater inside stove (see Fig-
ure 13). Make sure control knob exten-
sions pass through bottom front opening.
6. Align outside holes on heater base with
four (4) mounting holes on the stove
bottom (see Figure 13).

7. Fasten heater base to stove bottom with
#10-24 x .50 bolts and hex nuts pro-
vided with gas log heater (see Figure

packed inside plastic bag with installa-
tion manual and owner’s registration
card. Push bolt through heater base
mounting hole and through stove bot-
tom. Connect hex nut to bolt on under-
side of stove bottom. The bolt hex head
is for a 5/16" socket and the hex nuts
are for a 3/8" socket. If sockets are not
available, use adjustable wrenches.
8. Set one-piece log on heater base as
shown in Figure 15. Make sure middle
section at bottom of log is seated into
"U" shaped cutout in center of heater
base. Log will fit securely on base.
IMPORTANT: Make sure log does not
cover any burner ports and does not
touch the stove cavity (see Figure 16).
9. Fasten back panel to stove with six (6)
M6 x 1.20mm bolts and washers. Make
sure product identification label is located
on the outside lower left-hand corner.

sition in room. Be sure to maintain
