FRAMING
1. Frame the opening for the rebox using
the dimensions shown in Figures 6 and 7
depending on your installation.
2. If rebox is to be installed directly on
carpeting, tile (other than ceramic) or any
combustible material other than wood
ooring, rebox must be installed upon a
metal or wood panel extending full width
and depth of rebox.
Figure 8 - Ember Protectors
3. Set rebox directly in front of opening and
slide unit back until nailing anges touch
side framing.
4. Check the level of rebox and shim with
sheet metal if necessary.
5. Before securing rebox to prepared fram-
ing, ember protector (provided) must be
placed between hearth extension (not
supplied) and under bottom front edge of
rebox to protect against glowing embers
(see Figure 8 and Hearth Extensions on
page 6). If rebox is to be installed on a
raised platform, a Z-type ember protector
(not supplied) must be fabricated to t
your required platform height (see Figure
7). The ember protector should be made
of galvanized sheet metal (28 gauge mini-
mum) to prevent corrosion.
6. Secure firebox to framing at nailing
anges located on sides of rebox (see
Figure 9, page 6).
