WARNING: DO NOT INSTALL IN A SLEEPING ROOM

.

PREPARING THE HEATER FOR INSTALLATION

1. Remove the protective plastic wrapping from the unit.

2. Inspect the unit for any obvious physical damage.

NOTE: Plug the power cord into a 115 VAC outlet. Route the cord to prevent damage to the
cord insulation from heat and sharp objects. Keep the cord out of the way of traffic to prevent
damage caused by tripping, etc.

3. Check the primary air draft control to ensure it operates freely.

4. Remove any items from within the firebox. Spread the drop cloth on the floor behind the

heater. Next, tilt the heater so that the back is on the drop cloth.


5. Open the proper outside air freestanding kit and obtain the stand. Place the stand against

the bottom of heater (angle side to heater). Center the stand left and right front
to back and mark screw locations on bottom through outer holes of stand
mounting angles. Set stand aside and drill four 3/32" holes in heater bottom.


6. Obtain four (4) 3/16" self-tapping screws and secure the stand to the heater.

7. Reposition the heater to the upright position.

PREPARING THE ROOM HEATER LOCATION

1. Select an installation location that will give the best airflow from the front of the heater to

the remainder of the home.


2. Place the protective floor pad in position.

3. Place the unit on the pad making sure the minimum clearance specifications are met.

4. Lightly mark with a pencil the location of the pedestal on the protective pad.

5. Next, remove the four (4) screws holding the heater to the stand. Position heater out of the

way of the installation area.
