INSTALLATION

FRONT DOOR

INSTALLATION

(packaged separately)

1)Open the two side panels.

2)Slide the door onto the two hinge pins making sure the two pieces are flush to- gether. See di- agram 1.

3)Close the door.

The latch plate must be centered around the alignment pin. See dia- gram 2. If the latch plate interferes with the cor-

ner of the stove you may want to angle the

plate slightly so the door closes easier.

4)The latches should already be at the proper setting. If they are too hard or too easy to close, you may want to adjust them by loosening the latch catch. See diagram 3.

LOUVER

INSTALLATION

1)Attach the top & bottom louvers to the side stove panel using 2 screws per side.

Note: If the flue is blocked or has a strong reverse flow, the thermally actuated safe- ty switch mounted in the draft hood will automatically shut off the gas supply within about 10 minutes. If the heater turns off because of this during the spill- age test, check for the cause of the lack of draft.

TEST FOR FLUE

SPILLAGE

A "spillage" test must be made before the installed unit is left with the customer. Follow the procedure below:

1)Start all exhaust fans in the home and any other gas appliances. Then close all doors and windows.

The thermally activated safety switch must be manually reset before first star- tup.

5)Remove the blue plastic protective coating from the glass.

6)Test the seal around the door by placing a piece of paper between the unit and the door, close the door and try to pull the paper out. If it slips out easily, then the door is not properly sealed. Tighten or loosen the latch. See diagram 3.

2)Light the unit and set controls to maximum.

3)After five minutes, test that there is a "pull" on the flue by placing a smoke match, cigarette or similar device which gives off smoke, on the edge of the draft hood. See diagrams.

OPTIONAL WALL

THERMOSTAT

A wall thermostat may be installed if desired. Connect the wires as per the wiring diagrams. Note that the wires are connected to the "TH" on the gas valve. Use table below to determine the maximum wire length:

Note: Preferable if the thermostat is in- stalled on an interior wall.
