INSTALLATION

FRONT DOOR

INSTALLATION

1)Open the two side panels.

2)Slide the door onto the two hinge pins making sure the two pieces are flush together. See diagram 1.

Diagram 1

3)Close the door. The latch plate must be centered around the alignment pin. See diagram 2. If the latch plate interferes with the corner of the stove you may want to angle the plate slightly so the door closes easier.

Diagram 2

4)The latches should already be at the proper setting. If they are too hard or too easy to close, you may want to adjust them by loosening the latch catch. See diagram 3.

5)Remove the blue plastic protective coating from the glass.

6)Test the seal around the door by placing a piece of paper between the unit and the door, close the door and try to pull the paper out. If it slips out easily, then the door is not properly sealed. Tighten or loosen the latch. See diagram 3.

Note: The door latch may require adjust- ment as the door gasket material compresses after a few fires and after glass replacement. Turn the latch catch inward or outward to loosen or tighten.

TEST FOR

FLUE SPILLAGE

A "spillage" test must be made before the installed unit is left with the customer. Follow the procedure below:

1)Start all exhaust fans in the home and any other gas appliances. Then close all doors and windows.

2)Light the unit and set controls to maxi- mum.

3)After five minutes, test that there is a "pull" on the flue by placing a smoke match, cigarette or similar device which gives off smoke, on the edge of the draft diverter. See diagrams.

The smoke should be drawn into the draft di- verter. If the smoke is not drawn into the draft diverter, turn the unit off and check for the cause of lack of draft.

.

Note: If the flue is blocked or has a strong reverse flow, the thermally actuated safety switch mounted in the draft diverter will automatically shut off the gas supply within about 10 minutes. If the heater turns off be- cause of this during the spillage test, check for the cause of the lack of draft.

The thermally activated safety switch must be manually reset before first startup.
