manual abstract
The cord must have a three-prong, grounding plug and a three-hole receptacle. Make sure cord is in good shape. It must be heavy enough to carry the current needed. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage. This will result in loss of power and overheating. Use a No. 16 AWG cord for lengths less than 50 feet. 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 package 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 22. 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 fastened to floor. Figure 22 - Folding Anchor CONNECTING TO GAS SUPPLY WARNING: This appliance requires a 45° male flare fitting 5/8"-18 UNF (Unified National Fine Thread) inlet connection and the flexible gas line provided. WARNING: A qualified service person must connect fireplace to gas supply. Follow all local codes. For propane/LP units, installer must supply an external regulator. The external regulator will reduce incoming gas pressure. You must reduce incoming gas pressure to between 11 and 14 inches of water. If you do not reduce incoming gas pressure, fireplace regulator damage could occur. Install external regulator with the vent pointing down as shown in Figure 23. Pointing the vent down protects it from freezing rain or sleet. CAUTION: Use only new, black iron or steel pipe. Internally-tinned copper tubing may be used in certain areas. Check your local codes. Use pipe of 1/2" or greater diameter to allow proper gas volume to fireplace. If pipe is too small, undue loss of volume will occur. Propane/LP External Regulator Figure 23 - External Regulator with Vent Pointing Down Installation must include an equipment 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 24). IMPORTANT:Install an equipment shutoff valve in an accessible Supply Tank Vent Pointing Down CAUTION: Never connect propane/LP fireplace directly to the propane/LP supply. This fireplace requires an external regulator (not supplied). Install the external regulator between the fireplace and pro- pane/LP supply. WARNING: Never connect natural gas fireplace to private (non-utility) gas wells. This gas is commonly known as wellhead gas. location. The equipment shutoff valve is for turning on and shutting off the gas to the appliance. Check your building codes for any special requirements for locating equipment shutoff valve to fireplaces. Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male NPT threads. This will prevent excess sealant from going into pipe. Excess sealant in pipe could result in clogged fireplace valves. WARNING: Use pipe joint sealant that is resistant to liquid petroleum (LP) gas.

Locate sediment trap where it is within reach for cleaning. Install in piping system between fuel supply and fireplace. Locate sediment 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. * Purchase the optional CSA design-certified equipment shutoff valve from your dealer. See Accessories, page 29. Figure 24 - Gas Connection INSTALLATION Continued CSA Design-Certified Equipment Shutoff Valve With 1/8" NPT Tap* PROPANE/LP From External Regulator (11" W.C. to 14" W.C.

Remove fireplace screen. Remove two screws that hold fireplace screen in place for shipping. These screws are located near top of screen. Discard screws. Lift fireplace screen up and pull out to remove. 2. Remove screws that attach branch support to fireplace (see Figure 25). Carefully lift up branch support and remove from fireplace (see Figure 25). 3. Route flexible gas line, included, from fireplace control to equipment shutoff valve through side or rear access holes in outer casing. NOTICE: Most building codes do not permit concealed gas connections. A flexible gas line is provided to allow accessibility from the fireplace (see Figure 25). The flexible gas supply line con...
