Outside Combustion Air Controls

Many appliances are equipped, when installed,

with an outside (make-up air) vent system that

is designed to provide the appliance with outside

make-up air for combustion when in operation.

The combustion air control lever for the outside

air system is standard on all appliances but

should not be operated if the complete system

is not installed. Refer to Figure 4. When the

complete outside air vent system is installed,

the installer will remove the securing screw from

the combustion air control lever located on the

left side of the ﬁ replace bottom opening.

If the securing screw has not been removed

and you have reason to believe that you have

a complete outside air system, contact your

distributor to have your appliance inspected for

the presence of the complete system. DO NOT

assume that you have this system in place.

Initial Installation Considerations

The packaged logs are located within the ﬁ rebox.

The decorative volcanic stone and glowing

embers are packaged separately in plastic bags

located in the control area of the ﬁ replace.

If the logs are being installed for the ﬁ rst time,

the following paragraphs apply:

DO NOT attempt to install the logs until the ap-

pliance installation has been completed, the gas

line connected and tested for leaks and the initial

burner operation has been checked out.

Proper twig placement is critical to prevent soot-

ing. Twigs should be placed in the gaps between

the ﬂ ame peaks and should be positioned so

that at no time they impinge the ﬂ ames.

Step 1. Remove the appliance front door.

Step 2. Remove the log set from the interior

of the ﬁ replace.

Step 3. Remove the logs from their packaging.

Handle logs carefully to prevent breakage.

Step 4. MPB-4035 & MPB-4540 Models

- Remove the restraining strap from the grate

tines. Ensure the grate is fully inserted into

the holes on the ﬁ rebox rear panel and over

the indents on the ﬁ rebox ﬂ oor.

Log Placement

WARNING

This appliance is not meant to burn

wood. Any attempt to do so could

cause irreparable damage to your

appliance and prove hazardous to

your safety.

WARNING

Logs get very hot and will remain

hot up to one hour after gas supply

is turned off. Handle only when

logs are cool. Turn off all electricity

to the appliance before you install

grate and logs.

WARNING

The size and position on the log set

IS Critical to give your appliance a

safe, reliable and attractive ﬂ ame

pattern. Any attempt to use a dif-

ferent log set in the ﬁ replace will

void the Warranty and will result in

incomplete combustion, sooting,

and poor ﬂ ame quality.

Glowing Embers, Vermiculite, Decorative Volcanic Stone And Log

Placement Instructions:

Step 1. Separate the Glowing Embers (Rockwool) into pieces about

the size of a quarter (see Figure 13). Keep the pieces ﬂ uffed up, not

matted.

MPB-3328 & MPB-3530 Models -

Distribute these pieces over the burner as shown in Figure 14. Do not use

more than is shown. The glowing embers should not be placed directly

over the large burner slots as shown in Figure 14.

MPB-4035 & MPB-4540 Models -

Place the center log (Log No. 1) on the burner as shown on Page 12.

Distribute the glowing ember pieces at the front of the burner as shown

in Figure 15. Do not use more than is shown. The glowing embers

should not be placed directly over the large burner slots as shown in

Figure 15.

Note: This appliance is provided with enough Glowing Embers for

several applications; do not feel compelled to use all that is in a

new bag. For best glowing effect, replace the ember material annu-

ally. Replacement Glowing Embers are available (Catalogue Number

88L53).

Step 2. Mound up a portion of the vermiculite (light colored material) in

front of the burner and grate. Sprinkle the dark colored decorative volcanic

stone on top of the vermiculite in a pleasing pattern. For best results,

spread in a non-uniform manner while ensuring complete coverage of

the black sheetmetal surface.

See Figure 14 - MPB-3328 or MPB-3530, or Figure 15 - MPB-4035 or

MPB-4540 models.

Note: Do Not place vermiculite or decorative volcanic stone on top of

the gas burner where it will block the burner ports.

Step 3. Position the individual logs as described on Pages 11 (MPB-

3328), 12 (MPB-3530) or 13 (MPB-4035 and MPB-4540).

Note: Your application may not require the use of all of the provided

vermiculite, or decorative volcanic stone. Replacement vermiculite,

volcanic stone and glowing embers is available (see below for ordering

information).

MPB-3328 LOG PLACEMENT

Position the individual logs as shown below. Logs should be placed

in the order shown. Position the rear log on the brackets at the

rear of the ﬁ rebox with the log's notches directly over the brackets.

Position the right log (log no. 3) by inserting the pin from the rear

log into the hole on its upper end. Place the left log and then the

smaller left and right top logs. All logs that have notches to ﬁ t over

the grate tines should be positioned with these notches directly

against the grate. All top logs that rest on lower logs, do so over

ﬂ attened mounting faces in the bottom logs.

Proper log and twig placement is critical to encourage outstanding

ﬂ ame appearance and prevent sooting.
