1 fully assembled heater body

1 bottom heat shield*

4 legs

1 ash pan

1 ceramic handle assembly

1 hardware bag, containing the following parts:

(3) #10 x 1/2” sheet metal screws, (to attach the chimney connector to the flue collar)

(1) 5/32” Allen wrench, (to tighten the damper handle)

(4) washers, (used with the leg bolts to attach legs to the stove)

(1) door handle insert holder (for storing the ce- ramic handle assembly when it is not in use.)

(4) 1/4-20 x 1” hex head screws, (to attach legs)

If any parts are missing or damaged, immediately notify your Dutchwest dealer for replacements. Do not install your stove without having all necessary parts or using damaged parts.

*A Bottom Heat Shield is required in many instal- lations. Refer to the floor protection information found in the Installation Section of this manual.
