doors. Remove after each use so the handle will not get

 

hot. Keep in convenient location for each use. (Fig. 26)

 

Assemble the primary air control and damper handles by passing the screw through the wood shaft and into the bright metal hub. Tighten carefully until snug. Do not

overtighten. Wood handle could crack. (Fig. 27)
