Installing Mantel to Heater

Before installing mantel to heater, the heater must be mounted on the optional
hearth base. See Mounting Heater on Optional Hearth Base, page 17. Follow the
steps below to install mantel to heater.
1. Place mantel over heater (see Figure 22). Back side of mantel should be even

with back of hearth base. Mantel front should not extend past brass trim around
heater cabinet.

2. Locate pre-drilled holes at bottom of each side of mantel (see Figure 23). Use

an electric drill with 1/8" drill bit. Insert drill bit into pre-drilled holes in mantel
and drill through heater hearth base. Make sure the drill bit does not damage
any gas plumbing lines inside hearth base.

3. Locate two 2" screws from hardware package. Insert screws through pre-drilled

holes at bottom of each side of mantel (see Figure 23). Tighten each screw into
the heater hearth base. Make sure the screw tips do not damage any gas plumb-
ing lines inside hearth base.

Note:

The pre-drilled holes are countersunk.

Tighten the screws all the way into the holes.

4. Locate two wood plugs from hardware package. Insert plugs into screw holes

(see Figure 23). Tap into place.
