! WARNING

This is a fast acting ther- mocouple. It is an inte- gral safety component. Replace only with a fast acting thermocouple sup- plied by Wolf Steel Ltd.

RESTRICTING VERTICAL VENTS

Vertical installations may display a very active flame. If this appearance is not desirable, the vent exit must be restricted using the optional restrictor vent kit, RP40-KT. This will reduce the velocity of the exhaust gases, slowing down the flame pat- tern and creating a more traditional gentle appearance.

1. Open the glass viewing door.

2. Remove the three screws for mounting the restrictor plate located in the top of the fi rebox.

VENTURI ADJUSTMENT

Natural gas models have air shutters set at 1/4 (.250") inch open. Propane gas models have air shutters set at 7/16 (.437) inch open. Closing the air shutter will cause a more yellow fl ame, but can lead to carboning. Opening the air shutter will cause a more blue fl ame, but can cause fl ame lifting from the burner ports. The flame may not appear yellow immediately; allow 15 to 30 minutes for the fi nal fl ame colour to be established.

AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT MUST ONLY BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED GAS INSTALLER!
