Use extension cord if needed. The cord must have a
Attaching Wood Base to Solid Floor
For attaching base to solid floors (concrete or masonry)
Note: Floor anchors and mounting screws are in hardware package. The hardware pack- age is provided with fireplace.
1. | Drill holes at marked locations using |
| 5/16" drill bit. For solid floors (concrete |
| or masonry), drill at least 1" deep. |
2. | Fold floor anchor as shown in Figure 21. |
3. | Insert floor anchor (wings first) into |
| hole. Tap anchor flush to floor. |
4. | Insert mounting screws through base |
| and into floor anchors. |
5. | Tighten screws until base is firmly fas- |
CONNECTING TO GAS SUPPLY
WARNING: A qualified ser- vice person must connect fire- place to gas supply. Follow all local codes.
WARNING: Never connect fireplace to private
IMPORTANT: Check gas line pressure be- fore connecting fireplace to gas line. Gas line pressure must be no greater than 14 inches of water. If gas line pressure is higher, fireplace regulator damage could occur.
CAUTION: Use only new, black iron or steel pipe.
Installation must include a manual shutoff valve, union, and plugged 1/8" NPT tap. Locate NPT tap within reach for test gauge hook up. NPT tap must be upstream from fireplace (see Figure 22).
IMPORTANT: Install main gas valve (manual shutoff valve) in an accessible location. The main gas valve is for turning on or shutting off the gas to the appliance.
Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male threads. This will prevent excess sealant from going into pipe. Excess sealant in pipe could result in clogged fireplace valves.
CAUTION: Use pipe joint seal- ant that is resistant to liquid pe- troleum (LP) gas.
Install sediment trap in supply line as shown in Figure 22. Locate sediment trap where it is within reach for cleaning. Locate sedi- ment trap where trapped matter is not likely to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture and contaminants. This keeps them from going into fireplace controls. If sediment trap is not installed or is installed wrong, fireplace may not run properly.
