Set Up Your Stove

Cast iron stoves are heavy, and it will take two to four people to move your Deﬁant into position.

Wipe the protective coating of oil from the griddle with a clean dry rag or a paper towel.

Install the handle on the griddle. Slip the bolt through a washer, a nylon bushing, then through the handle and the other bushing, then through the steel spacer and into the griddle tab. (Fig. 20) Tighten securely.

Install Stove Legs

Remove and discard the four large slot-head screws from the stove bottom. Install the stove legs (Fig. 21) using the hex head bolts from the parts bag. Use 3/8” washers with all four legs; the door handle holder installs on the right front leg. Position the holder so the hole to accept the handle hub faces out from the right side of the stove. Tighten the bolts ﬁrmly.

CAUTION: Overtightening can strip tapped threads.

Storing the Handle

Use the removable handle to open or close the doors. After using it, remove the handle so it will not get hot. Store the handle in the handle holder installed behind the right front leg. (Fig. 22)
