UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
UNPACK AND INSPECT FOR DAMAGE
The Tucson is packaged by the manufacturer to withstand shipment without damage. However, damage can occur during transit so take care to inspect for damage when unpacking and installing the unit. If any damage or missing parts are detected,
immediately contact your dealer. Do not install or put into service a damaged or incomplete heater.
Caution: The two top stones and grill are NOT cemented or otherwise permanently fastened in place! Carefully remove and set aside the two stones and the grill. Use the protective wrapping material to temporarily protect the stones from chipping and damage while the unit is inspected and installed.
Inspect the Tucson for visible or concealed damage. The unit should appear to be square and true. The stones should be whole and without cracks, chips, or breakage. The sheet metal parts should be smooth and free of bends and dents. The enameled cast iron should be free of chips or cracks. If visible or concealed damage is found or suspected, contact your dealer for instructions.
With the top stones and grill removed and set aside, undo the lag bolts that fasten the unit to the pallet. Take care not to mar or chip the enameled legs. Lift the stove off the pallet and set it into place.
The decorative ceramic fiber logs supplied with the Tucson are contained within the firebox. Always use great care when handling the decorative ceramic fire logs as they are fragile and subject to damage and breakage if handled roughly. Open the firebox door using a 1/8” allen wrench screwdriver and inspect the logs for damage. If a broken log is encountered, contact your
dealer for replacement logs. Otherwise, set the logs aside until called for during the installation.
