Note: If adding the G8007 series brick liner
accessory, install it now. Follow instructions

CAUTION: Do not pick up
log base assembly by burner.
This could damage burner. Only
handle base by grates.
3. Route gas line (provided by installer)
from equipment shutoff valve to replace.
Route exible gas supply line through one
of the access holes.
NOTICE: Most building codes
do not permit concealed gas
connections. A exible gas line
is provided to allow accessibility
from the replace (see Figure 17).
The exible gas supply line con-
nection to the equipment shutoff
valve should be accessible.
4. Attach exible gas line to gas supply (see
Figure 17). Check tightness of exible gas
line attached to gas regulator of replace
(see Figure 17).
5. Check all gas connections for leaks. See
Checking Gas Connections, page 16.
6. Replace log base assembly back into
replace. Feed exible gas line into re-
place base area while replacing log base
assembly. Make sure the entire exible
gas line is in replace base area. Reat-
tach log base assembly to replace with
screws removed in step 2.

WARNING: Use pipe joint
sealant that is resistant to liquid
petroleum (LP) gas.
We recommend that you install a sediment
trap in supply line as shown in Figure 15,
page 14. Locate sediment trap where it is
within reach for cleaning. Install in piping
system between fuel supply and replace.
Locate sediment trap where trapped matter
is not likely to freeze. A sediment trap traps
moisture and contaminants. This keeps them
from going into replace gas controls. If sedi-
ment trap is not installed or is installed wrong,
replace may not run properly.
