If so, reposition logs ac- cording to the log installation in- structions in this manual. Flames contacting logs will create soot.

1.Remove log and gas log heater from carton. Note: Do not pick up gas log heater by the burner itself. This could damage heater. Always handle the gas log heater by the heater base only.

2.Remove all protective packaging applied to log and gas log heater for shipment.

3.Check all items for any shipping dam- age. If damaged, promptly inform dealer where you bought heater.

5.Set gas log heater inside stove. Make sure control knob extension passes through bottom front opening (see Figure 13).

6.Align outside holes on heater base with four (4) mounting holes on the stove bottom (see Figure 13).

Attachment hardware is factory packed inside plastic bag with installa- tion manual and owner’s registration card. Push bolt through heater base mounting hole and through stove bot- tom. Connect hex nut to bolt on under- side of stove bottom. The bolt hex head is for a 5/16" socket and the hex nuts are for a 3/8" socket. If sockets are not available, use adjustable wrenches.

8.Set one-piece log on heater base as shown in Figure 15. Make sure middle section at bottom of log is seated into "U" shaped cutout in center of heater base. Log will fit securely on base.

IMPORTANT: Make sure log does not cover any burner ports and does not touch the stove cavity (see Figure 16).
