DAMPER MECHANISM

The damper control lever is located inside the fire chamber (see Figure 33). Make sure lever is cool before handling. Pull down to CLOSE, push up to OPEN. The damper must be open when lighting a fire. Not doing so will cause smoke spillage into the room. When the fireplace is not in use, close the damper to prevent down drafts to enter the room.

OUTSIDE AIR MECHANISM

The outside air handle is located at the right hand side of the fireplace rear refractory (see Figure 33). Pull to close, push to open. Always open the mechanism when starting a fire. This provides adequate outside combustion air. Close the mechanism when not in use to prevent cold air from entering the room. Periodically check you’re outside air intake vent hood for any possible obstructions such as snow, bushes, etc.

GRATE

The grate is designed to provide you with the maximum solid fuel capacity. Do not attempt to defeat its purpose. Doing so may cause smoke spillage and a fire hazard. Do not overload the grate or obstruct the required air space beneath it. Always keep ashes from building up under the grate.

WARNING: RISK OF FIRE! Replace grate with DESA model 3610ST-GR grate only.

Never obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Keep the front of the fireplace clear of all obstacles and materials.

WARNING: Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high surface temperatures, and to stay away to avoid burns or clothing ignition. Young children should be carefully supervised when they are in the same room as the fireplace.
