INSTALLATION (cont.)
8. Be sure gas to the fi replace is off. Attach the large adapter
end of the fl ex connector (Item 9) to the gas-supply stub
using a pipe compound resistant to all gases. Ensure
adapter (and nut) are tightened securely. Ensure the pan
rests level on the fi replace fl oor after connection. Adjust the
pan if necessary.
9. LEAK TEST: Turn on the fi replace gas supply, and test at
all connections for leaks using the appropriate soapy water
solution. If bubbles appear, a leak is present. Turn off the
gas and tighten at all connections. Repeat until no leaks
are present. If a leak persists, turn off the gas supply and
contact the local gas company or dealer. NEVER USE A
FLAME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS.
Turn off the gas supply prior to proceeding.
Important: Heatshields must be in place during operation
of the gas log set. Overheating of the valve will cause shut down of the gas log set or other operating
problems.
GRANULE, EMBER, AND GRATE PLACEMENT
GRANULE PLACEMENT
The granules supplied with the unit are specially selected for
use with either propane gas or natural gas. They maximize fl ame
distribution and reduce carbon buildup.
1. Fill the burner pan completely with the granules* (Item 11).
See Fig. 7-2. Avoid spilling the granules on the pilot kit.
Note: Use only select sand for natural gas burners and lava
granules for propane gas burners.
2. Slope the granules at the same angle as the burner pan.
This is important to ensure quiet lighting and even fl ame
distribution.
3. Pour a small amount of the granules along the outside edges
of the burner pan (Fig. 7-2). This prevents fl ame diversion.
EMBER PLACEMENT
Sprinkle the glowing embers (Item 10) lightly and evenly over the entire surface of the granules (in the pan only). Break up
any clumps that may have developed during shipment. (For Charred series log sets, refer to OPTIONAL CHARRED
SERIES INSTALLATION section.)
Important: Do not add any additional embers to this log set. Any additional embers may cause unsafe operation.
GRATE PLACEMENT
Replace the grate so that the stabilizer clips fi t over the back edge of the pan, locking it in position.

LOG PLACEMENT
CAUTION: Burn hazard. Logs will remain hot for some time after use. You must maintain the
log layout as shown to ensure proper operation of your log set. If you need to
reposition any log to maintain the proper layout, use heat-resistant gloves or allow
logs adequate time to cool before handling.
Styles and sizes will vary depending upon the log set ordered. If the log set ordered includes placement
