Assembly

Clean the Griddle Before Use

At the factory the griddle is coated with vegetable oil to prevent rusting while the stove is in transit and storage. Remove the oil with a dry rag or paper towel before you use the stove.

Set Up the Stove

Remove any loose parts from inside the stove. Place a protective pad on the floor, arrange some sections of 4 x 4 lumber on the pad for support, and carefully tip the stove onto them, on its back.

Remove and discard the four large slot-head screws from the stove bottom (Fig. 13) and install the stove legs, using the hex head bolts from the parts bag. Use 3/8” washers with three of the legs; the door/damper handle holder installs in place of a washer on the right front leg. Position the holder so the hole to accept the handle nub faces out from the right side of the stove. Tighten the bolts firmly.

Install the Bottom Heat Shield

A bottom heat shield must be used unless the stove is to be situated on a completely noncombustible hearth, such as unpainted concrete over earth. To install the bottom heat shield, loosen the leg bolts, and slip the bottom heat shield C-clips onto the bolts. Attach the bottom heat shield to the C-clips with the wing nuts, and tighten the leg bolts. Align the shield as shown in Figure 14.

Storing the Handle

Use the removable handle to open or close the front doors, or to change the position of the damper. After using it, remove it so it won’t get hot, and store it in the handle holder installed behind the right front leg. (Fig. 15)
