Replace the burner by first tipping the front of the burner up to get the burner neck started into the shutter sleeve (see Figure 12.14).

Figure 12.14

Once the neck is in the sleeve, slide the burner all the way to the left until the orifice goes into the burner neck and the neck contacts the orifice holder, and all the way back until the neck contacts the burner support.

While sliding the burner into position, make sure the pilot is not pushed aside and it is lined up for reattaching to the burner (see Figure 12.15).

Figure 12.15

Replace the screw in front of the burner to the burner bracket. Reattach the pilot assembly with two screws. Reattach the air baffle, sliding it back to contact the back of the firebox and replacing two screws (see Figure 12.11).

Move the air shutter to the open position and tighten the wing nut to secure it (see Figure 12.10).

H. Grilles and Trim

Install optional marble and brass trim surround kits as de- sired. Marble, brass, brick, tile, or other noncombustible materials can be used to cover up the gap between the sheet rock and the appliance.

Do not obstruct or modify the air inlet/outlet grilles. When overlapping on both sides, leave enough space so that the bottom grille can be lowered and the trim door removed.

I. Air Shutter Setting

This appliance has an adjustable air shutter (which con- trols the primary air) factory set for the minimum vertical vent run (see Figure 12.10). If your installation has more than the minimum required vertical vent length, adjust- ment of the air shutter may be necessary to obtain optimal flame appearance. This should be adjusted by a quali- fied installer at the time of installation.

By sliding the air shutter handle to the right, you will be closing the air shutter. To adjust loosen the wing nut. Care should be taken when adjusting the air shutter so as not to cause the appliance to soot. If sooting occurs the air shutter will need to be opened by sliding the handle to the left. When finished tighten wing nut.
