The DVC500 grate system is composed of four pieces: the grate holder, (2)-63 hole grate inserts, and grate angle. The grate angle is bolted to the grate holder with (2) 3/8 x 1 1/4 bolts. Before installing the grate holder, 3/8" round gasket must be checked in the groove on the bottom side of the grate holder, as shown in Fig 31. Check to be sure the gasket has not been damaged.

The grate holder must be installed through the top door opening after the feeder has been installed.

Locate the flange at the rear of the grate holder into the slot on the feeder as shown below. Bolt the front end down with the 1/4 x 20 allen bolt and nut provided. The rear end will be locked in place by the flange. Before tightening the bolt, be sure the grate holder is back as far as possible and centered side to side on the feeder opening.

Install grate inserts as shown at left. Seal joints with high temp furnace cement caulking as shown in Fig 30. Insert first grate and squeeze into caulking. Caulk other grate insert, Fig 29, on edge that joins grate already in place. Insert caulked grate in remaining space and squeeze together to make middle joint as tight as possible. Clean any caulking that has pushed out from the joints on top of grates. Let caulking cure before firing.
