D. Intake Damper Operation | F. Positioning the Logs |
The intake damper can be used with or without the flue restrictor to adjust the air flow. Opening the damper makes the flames shorter and more active. Closing the damper makes the flames taller and less active.
Figure 8.6 Loosen the wingnut that secures the damper. The wingnut is located on the underside of the appliance, to the right of the pilot assembly.
To CLOSE the intake damper, pull the wingnut forward.
To OPEN the damper, push the wingnut back. Adust the damper in 1/4 in. increments until the desired flame is achieved. After adjustment, tighten the wingnut.
NOTE: In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the word damper shall be replaced with the words flue restrictor.
E. Intake Air Shutter Adjustment
OPENCLOSE
Figure 8.7 The shutter is located on the underside of the appliance, on the right side. To adjust the shutter, loosen the wingnut.
Moving the shutter bolt to the right closes the shutter. Moving the shutter bolt to the left, will open the shutter. Opening the shutter causes flames to become shorter and blue. Closing the shutter creates taller orange/yellow flames.
NOTE: Do not close so much as to cause a sooty flame. Improper adjustment can cause sooting in the firebox and/ or on the outside of a house with a horizontal termination.
Retighten the wingnut after adjustment.
While still breakable, the logs do not become fragile until after the appliance is burned and they have cured. After curing, any handling must be done with care as breakage can easily occur.
PLEASE NOTE: Logs have been designed to work specifically with the burner of this appliance. Exact placement will ensure proper operation of your gas appliance and reduce sooting.
Figure 8.8 Gently remove the top of the appliance and set aside. Remove the cast face by sliding straight up and set it aside.
Remove the glass by releasing the latch located on the top of the appliance. Lean the glass frame forward and lift it out.
Place the left log on the log shelf along the back of the firebox with thefront resting on the burner.
