visable to snug the locknuts but do not over tighten.
6. Try moving the shaker grate bars with the handle.
NOTE: Both bars in normal position should be flat. If not,
one or the other gear is not aligned correctly.
7. To install the assembly into the unit, place the front
end of the assembled grate on the loading door lower
frame. The grate should be the upside down position.
Slide the grate (front end first) into the firebox allowing
the front end to lower into the hearth area. Once the
back end of the grate has cleared the door frame, “flip” it
over toward the rear of the unit. If necessary, reach into

until it lodges into place.
