4. Secure the shelf to the flat brackets with 1/4-20 x
5/8” screws, with a flat washer under the head of
each screw. Finger tight is tight enough.
Part 2. Position the Shelf and Tighten the
Screws
1. Adjust the shelf so there is a small, even gap
between the edge of the stove top and the shelf.
Especially with enamelled stoves, leave a gap to
avoid chipping the finish.

2. Level the shelf by raising or lowering the outside
edge gently. Move the dragon bracket toward the
stove until it just touches the side of the stove. The
dragon bracket will hold the shelf level. Tighten the
screws holding the shelf to the flat brackets. Adjust
set screws as necessary to further level the shelf.
Be sure the top of the dragon bracket is in the groove
on the underside of the flat bracket. (Fig. 4)
Encore NC: The dragon’s tail should be to the rear
of the raised molding on the side plate of the stove.
Tighten the screw while holding the shelf level.
Defiant NC: The dragon’s tail should rest on the flat
surface between the raised molding and the front edge
of the stove. Tighten the screw while holding the shelf
level.
3. Position the shelf so the indentation on its bottom
fits on the raised bead on the top of the flat bracket.
Tighten the screws holding the flat brackets to the
stove with a 7/16” wrench. If the shelf does not stay
in position while you tighten the screws, remove it
from the stove and start over.
Insert the mitten racks by passing their crooked ends
downward through the holes in the outside edge of the
shelf. The mitten racks will hang vertically until you are
ready to use them. For use, slide them upward until
their crooked ends meet the underside of the shelf and
then position the racks horizontally.
NOTE: Check the installation occasionally by gen-
tly striking the outside edge of the shelf with the
heel of your hand. If the shelf is loose, tighten the
screws a little. Check all screws for tightness every
six months or any time the shelf feels loose.
