HOW TO INSTALL THE EPK-1(M)(P) SAFETY PILOT SYSTEM
This safety pilot system must be installed by a qualifi ed professional installer.
Instructions must be followed carefully when installing to ensure
proper performance and full benefi t from the gas log set and safety pilot system.
These instructions must be used as a supplement to the instructions supplied with the Peterson gas log set. Follow
the gas log set instructions and make adjustments as appropriate for the addition of a safety pilot system. Use gas
pipe sealing compound that is resistant to all gasses (or Tefl on tape) and apply to all male pipe connections. Make
sure that all connections are tight. Use soapy water and a brush to inspect all connections for leaks prior to
use. NEVER TEST FOR LEAKS WITH AN OPEN FLAME.
INSTALLATION
The EPK-1(M)(P) is shipped pre-assembled for easy
installation onto the burner pan.
Note: Installation is easier when done outside of the
fi replace.
FOLLOWING THESE INSTRUCTIONS WILL ENSURE
PROPER INSTALLATION.
PREPARATION
If the burner system the EPK-1(M)(P) is to be added to is
already installed, remove the logs, sand, and/or other media,
and set it aside to be correctly reinstalled later using the
instructions that came with the original burner system.
ATTACHING THE EPK-1(M)(P) VALVE
1. Apply gas pipe sealing compound (or Tefl on tape) to the
male end of the fuel injector or air mixer on the burner.
2. Attach the brass adapter (Item #8) to the fuel injector or air
mixer by screwing the pan onto the adapter (Fig. 4-1).
Take care not to damage the attached pilot assembly
when rotating the burner pan. Be sure all connections
are tight.
Note: The EPK-1(M)(P) valve may need to be angled
slightly upward to allow for the pan to sit fl at against
the fi replace fl oor. Adjust as necessary.
INSTALLING THE FLAME DIVERTER BRACKET
When properly installed onto the burner pan, the fl ame
diverter bracket (Item #13) will promote quicker ignition and
protect the safety control system from overheating.
Note: You must fi rst install the fl ame diverter bracket
before installing the pilot assembly. Use only the
pilot assembly pre-assembled with this kit. Never
substitute with an existing pilot.
1. Place the fl ame diverter bracket over the side edge
of the burner pan, near the location the safety control
system pilot bracket will be attached. It should be placed
approximately 2-
1
/
2
" from the rear wall of the burner
pan (see Fig. 4-2).
2. Tap the bracket lightly with a hammer to secure it in
place.
