12.Move the Entire Unit the final few inches into the Cabinet.

Move the WinterWarm the final few inches into the cabinet, making sure the surround panels are properly aligned. If you are using the CFM Corporation Flex Connector System, reach up into the flue collar area to grasp the Starter Piece and pull it down into the flue collar. Bend the retaining tabs 90° against the bottom of the flue collar.

13. Install the Latticework Panels.

The two panels are not interchangeable. Each is la- beled with a designating letter cast into the iron next to the tab — “L” for left and “R” for right. The corner cut- outs must be positioned on the back edge. The panels are anchored at the bottom by a single tab that is bolted on. (Fig. 59) At the top, the panels are retained by the overhang of the mantel.

Fig. 59 A single tab at the bottom anchors the latticework panel, while the top of the panel is held in place by the mantel overhang.

Lower the panel and seat it on the base so the anchor tab locks behind the rib cast in the base plate. Secure it in place temporarily by holding it or with tape until the mantel is installed.

14. Install the Mantel.

Place the mantel flat side down on the floor. Lift the mantel slightly and slip the drilled and tapped ends of the column capitals under each end of the mantel. Align the two tapped holes in each capital with the two holes in each end of the mantel, and thread in two 3/4” (19mm) hex head cap screws and two washers. Do not tighten these cap screws with a wrench; leave them finger tight. Use care during this assembly process, especially with enamelled parts. Forcing the mantel or capitals into position may cause chipping or cracking.

Install the mantel and capital assembly by raising it into position and tilting it to the rear against the upper shroud flange, with the flange on the shroud in front of the back rib on the mantel. Push against the flange slightly before lowering the front edge of the assembly onto the upper trim piece.

15. (Fireplace Systems only) Install the Plinth.

The plinth assembly consists of a pre-assembled plinth center and front, two plinth end caps, two plinth connec- tors, and six hex head screws (1/4-20 x 1/2” (13mm).

Invert the plinth center and front assembly on a flat surface. Unpack the two end caps and invert them also, placing one at each end. Make sure the decorative fronts of the end caps are in line with the front of the plinth. (Fig. 60)

Fig. 60 Before attaching the end caps, make sure their decorative fronts line up with the front of the plinth.

with the connector hole centered over the tapped hole in the plinth. The other two holes in the plinth connec- tor should line up with the two tapped holes in the end caps. (If they do not line up, remove the plinth connec- tor and flip it over.)

Repeat this process for the other side. Attach the plinth connectors with the six (6) hex head cap screws pro- vided.

Set the assembled plinth in the upright position, in front of and centered on the WinterWarm. Adjust the levelling bolts on the bottom front of the fire chamber so that the plinth will fit, slide the plinth into its final position, and center it. Adjust the levelling bolts downward to lower the WinterWarm onto the plinth.

Step 16. Replace the Ashpan and Ash Door, Front Grate Bars, Bottom Grate and Load Door.
