MONTANA INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
F. INSTALLATION OF THE FIREPLACE
WARNING!
Before starting, do the following:
1. Wear gloves and safety glasses for protection.
2. Keep hand tools in good condition. Sharpen cutting edges and make sure tool handles are secure.
3. Always maintain the minimum air space required to the enclosure to prevent fire.
Important: To ensure proper fit of the glass doors,
check the fireplace opening for square. Measure
diagonal distances of the opening to make sure they
are equal. If they are not equal, continue to shim
the fireplace until those diagonals are equal.
Figure 9 - Positioning the Metal Strips
1. Position the Fireplace
This fireplace may be placed on either a combustible or
noncombustible continuous flat surface. Follow the instructions
for framing on pages 8 and 9. Slide the fireplace into position. Be
sure to provide the minimum air clearance at the sides and
back of the fireplace assembly.
2. Place the Protective Metal Hearth Strips
Included with your fireplace you will find two metal hearth strips
measuring approximately 28 x 4. These strips are used to provide
added protection where the fireplace and the hearth extension
meet.
Slide each metal strip 2 under the front edge of the fireplace. The
individual pieces must overlap each other by 1 minimum in the
middle of the fireplace to provide continuous coverage of the floor.
See Figure9. These metal strips should extend from the front
and sides of the fireplace opening by 2.
3. Level the Fireplace
Level the fireplace side-to-side and front-to-back. Shim with
noncombustible material, such as sheet metal, as necessary.
Secure the fireplace (using the nailing flanges located on either
side of the fireplace) to the vertical framing.
