nstallation
Install per the following instructions (refer to Figure 1).
The FireStar™ insert flanges are made of heavy 12 gage
steel for durability and, if desirable, for the ease of making
an inside fit in the fireplace. See “Packaging List” for sizes
available. The side flanges extend 2” below the bottom of
the insert and align with the 2” lower filler panel. In those
few instances when the elevation of the hearth necessitates,
2” can be cut from the bottom of the side flanges and the
insert placed directly on the hearth- not using the leveling
bolts or filler panel.
1. Remove the speed nuts from the parts bag and install
(with the flat surface forward) on the six holes in the
flange brackets (three on each side of the insert). A flat
bladed screwdriver may help in installing the nuts.
2. Install all flanges and trim with the insert positioned in the
fireplace but a few inches in front of its final location.
3. Open side doors and install the side flanges by lining up the
holes in the tabs on the side flanges in front of the holes on
the flange brackets. (Note that the larger tab on side flange
goes at the bottom and the front leveling bolts need to be
raised to at least two inches to accommodate the length of
the side flanges). Next insert two slotted 1/4” truss screws
for each side flange and secure loosely.
4. Fasten top flange with the remaining two truss screws.
Tighten all six truss screws after shifting flanges to
eliminate space between side and top flanges.
5. Install two spring clips approximately five inches from each
end of each of the three gold trim pieces. The spring clips
should be installed in the channel of the trim with the curved
end to the front toward the rounded surface of the trim.
6. Place the longest trim piece with the rounded surface
out along the edge of the top flange with the spring clips
slightly behind the flange. Pull the trim forward, com-
pressing the spring clips, and slide the trim down onto
the flange.
7. Insert the elbowed retainer in the mitred end of the side
trim pieces and fasten with flat screwdriver. Insert the other
end of the retainer in the end of the already installed top
flange and slide side trim onto the edge of the side flange
compressing spring clips in the process. Repeat the same
steps for the other side trim. Fasten the elbowed retainer
securely in the top flange making a nice mitred corner.

4. Position the top twig, with the charred end forward, on
the pin in the top of the rear log and the pin in the top of
the right front log (see Figure 11).
5. Place the volcanic stone one high in front of the front
burner tube (see Figure 12). Take care not to cover all the
burners ports. Any extra volcanic stone may be placed
at the ends of the front logs, off the burner. Place small
pinches of rockwool (embers) on top of the volcanic
stone.
Note: The pilot flame can be
viewed through the burned hole
in the right front log.
