The damper is either open or closed. There are no
intermediate positions.
The Encore’s griddle lifts for convenient top-loading of
logs, and is the easiest way to regularly add fuel.
However, the front doors open as well for adding an oc-
casional log to a fire. If equipped with the 8” (203 mm)
flue collar, the front doors may be opened (or even re-
moved) and the optional Encore spark screen placed in
the opening for open-fire viewing.

the Encore’s hinged griddle makes it easy to top-load
wood.
To open the front doors, insert the handle into the door
latch stub and turn it to the left and up. (Fig. 37)
To close them, always close the left door first. Turn the
handle in the right door to the left and up (to the open
position) and close it. Finally, push on the door as you
turn the handle to the right and down. The doors will
draw in slightly, and the handle should offer some resis-
tance as you turn it to the closed position.
To reduce the risk of breaking the glass, avoid striking
the glass or slamming the doors.
