Removing Glass Door

If replacement of glass is necessary, the entire assembly, glass and frame, must be replaced. If glass is broken, wear gloves and tape the remaining fragments onto the frame.

1.Remove screen assembly by pushing the rod either left or right and then down and forward to remove screen/rod assembly from the firebox. Set assembly aside.

2.Lift up on latches to unlock. There are two on top of firebox and two below firebox that hold glass door in place (see Figure 41).

3.While holding glass door to prevent it from falling and causing injury, remove the five screws from the hinge located on the left side of door frame assembly (see Figure 41).

4.Remount the new frame at the hinge with five new screws before closing door. This will ensure seating of the gasket.

5.Close glass door frame. Lock latches by placing the bar under the tab on door and pushing down and back on latch (see Figure 41).

6.Replace screen/rod assembly by reversing step 1.

7.Replace louvers by reversing procedure under Removing Louver Panels, page 21.

INSTALLING LAVA ROCK AND GLOWING EMBERS

It is very important to keep logs exactly as installed. Do not modify logs. Only use log set designed for this fireplace. Logs under log/grate assembly are attached to burner. Do not attempt to move these logs as this will damage logs.

WARNING: Logs are unitized and attached to the grate. Do not handle log/grate assembly by logs. Always pick up by grate.

Open louvers, remove screen, unlock door latches and open glass door. See Removing Glass Door, steps 1 and 2.

1.Pull ember material apart into pieces no larger than a dime. Place these pieces loosely and sparingly directly onto the exposed front section of the burner (see Figure 42). This will create the glow- ing ember appearance as the flame touches the ember material. Do not block air slots by using too much ember material in one area. It is not necessary to use all of the ember material provided.

2.Pour lava rock onto plenum but not onto flat burner. It is not necessary to use all of the lava rock provided.

NOTICE: Do not put lava rock on burner or under burner. Placing lava rock on burner will cause per- formance problems.

3.Close glass door, lock door latches, replace screen and close louvers (see Removing Glass Door, steps 5 through 7).

WARNING: The glass door must be securely in place before running this fireplace. Do not run this fireplace if glass is missing or broken.
