Air Shutter & Flame Picture Adjustment

The GF3 DVII Allagash is shipped from the factory equipped to use NATURAL GAS. If the stove is con- verted to use Propane, it will be necessary to adjust the air shutter on the burner tube to achieve the proper gas to air mix. THE AIR SHUTTER SHOULD BE SET FULL OPEN FOR PROPANE USE AND THREE QUARTERS OPEN FOR NATURAL GAS USE.

The air shutter can also help achieve the desired flame appearance. Generally, flame appearance is a matter of preference, however most people enjoy a warm, yellowish flame.

Too large a setting: The appliance will generate a flame that is blue and transparent, or an “anemic” flame.

Too small a setting: The appliance will generate very long yellow flames resulting in soot. Sooting produces black deposits on the logs, on the inside walls of the appliance, and potentially on the exterior termination cap. See Fig. 12 for reference.

Sooting is caused by incomplete combustion in the flames and lack of combustion air entering the air shutter opening.

To adjust the air shutter: remove the burner tube and using a phillips head screwdriver loosen the screw at the air shutter and adjust accordingly. Be sure to retighten the screw that holds the air shutter setting. Reassemble the stove and close the door, allow stove to burn 30 minutes on the HIGH setting, observing the flame continuously. If the flame appears weak, slow, or sooty, repeat the process described above until the flame is as desired.

WARNING:

AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENTS SHOULD ONLY BE PERFORMED BY A QUALIFIED PROFESSIONAL SERVICE TECHNICIAN.

Log Set Installation

The Allagash is equipped a one piece log set and is packaged in bubble wrap inside the firebox. The log set must be removed from the packaging and arranged in the unit prior to start up of the gas stove. Do not handle the log set with your bare hands. Always wear gloves to prevent skin irritation from the ceramic fibers.

To install the log set, remove the packaging and place the log set inside the firebox, centered from left to right and completely against the rear wall of the stove. See Fig. 18.

Also, the stove is shipped with a package of Glowing Embers. These are to be individually sprinkled across the screen above the burner tube. It is best to equally space these embers for optimum flame appearance. Note: All of the embers do not need to be used.

CONTACT WITH THE CERAMIC FIBER LOGS AND GLOWING EMBERS MAY CAUSE SKIN IRRITATION. SHOULD THAT OCCUR, GENTLY WASH HANDS WITH WARM SOAPY WATER.
