Install the Optional Ash Door Heat Shield
Many installations will require the use of the supplied
ash door heat shield. Refer to the “Floor Protection”
sections starting on Page 10 to determine if your instal-
lation requires the use of the ash door heat shield.
1. Remove the two Phillips pan head screws from the
ash door.
2. Insert the screws through the ash door heat shield
(from the painted side), place the 5/16” spacers over
the screws, and carefully thread them back into the
original holes. (Fig. 23) The curved lip should be
upward, under the ashlip of the stove.
3. Tighten securely.

Adjust the Leg Levellers
Lift the stove slightly so there is no weight on the leg
while making the adjustment.
Reverse the Flue Collar (If necessary)
Reverse the flue collar by removing the two screws that
attach it to the back of the stove. Be sure the gasket
around the flue collar opening is in position when you

Attach the Damper Handle
Use the 1/4” -20 x 3” screw to attach the damper handle
to the damper stub on the left side.
Attach the Primary Air Thermostat Handle
The primary air thermostat handle is the smaller of the
two black handles. Secure the handle to the stub on
the right side of the stove with an 8-32 x 2” slot head
machine screw. (Fig. 24)
Assemble the Removable Insert Handle
The ceramic removable insert handle opens and closes
the front doors. Remove after each use, and store it in
the handle holder behind the right front leg. Assemble
the handle by passing the 3³⁄₈" screw through the
ceramic shaft and into the bright metal nub. (Fig. 25)
Tighten carefully until snug.
