IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Do not use this log set if any part has been under

water. Immediately call a qualified service technician

to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of

the control system and any gas control which has

been under water.

The gas log set must be isolated from the gas sup-

ply piping system by closing its individual shut-off

valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply

system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2

psig. The gas log set and its individual shut-off valve

must be disconnected from the gas supply piping

system when testing at pressures in excess of 1/2

psig.

Keep the area of the gas log set clear and free from

combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable

vapors and liquids.

MAINTENANCE: Periodically remove the logs and

examine the burner assembly. If dirty, clean with a

stiff brush. Also examine the area around burner air

shutter, and pilot. Any dirt or lint in this area should

be removed. This will insure long life and trouble-

free operation. An annual inspection and cleaning

of the vent system by a qualified agency is recom-

mended.

The minimum inlet gas supply pressure for the pur-

pose of input adjustment is 5" for Natural Gas and

1 1" for Propane Gas. The maximum inlet gas supply

pressure for this burner is 14" for Natural and Pro-

pane Gas.

A fireplace screen must be in place when the log set

is burning. Unless other provisions for combustion

air are provided, the screen shall have an opening(s)

for introduction of combustion air. When a glass fire-

place enclosure (door) is used, operate the gas log

set with the glass doors open.

The minimum size fireplace in which the log set is

certified to be installed, is listed in theTechnical Data

Table below. To center the log set in the fireplace, an

additional 2" to 3" in rear width is recommended.

HOW TO INSTALL YOUR WILLIAMS CLASSIC GAS LOG SET

The Williams Classic Gas Log Set must be installed by a qualified technician.

Instructions must be followed carefully to insure proper performance and full

benefit from your gas log set.

Williams Classic Gas Logs must be installed only in

a wood burning fireplace with the minimum venting

requirements met (see Pg. 3). Check parts list to be

sure all parts are included. Gas supply pipe must be

I/2" or larger. Use 3/4" if the gas line is longer than 20'.

REFER TO PARTS LIST (PAGE 4, 5) WHEN

FOLLOWING THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

EMBER PLACEMENT

Sprinkle embers (Item 11) lightly and evenly over

entire surface of the granules or vermiculite. Replace

the grate so that bottom tabs on the Iog-locator

brackets fit over the back edge of the pan locking it

in position.

INSTALLATION OF LOG SET (be sure gas

to the fireplace is off)

1. Remove grate (Item 7) from carton and attach log

Iocators (Item 10) to the two outer bars of the grate

with bolts and nuts. Log Iocators should be posi-

tioned at the middle of the bars with the two taller pins

facing the front.

2. Connect nipple (item 38) to regulator inlet. Attach

the smaller elbow from connector kit (item 15) to the

opposite end of the nipple and tighten.

3. Place the burner assembly (item 8) into the fire-

place so the open burner pan faces to the room.

4. Place the grate (item 7) over the burner pan (item

8) so the log Iocator brackets (item 10) fit over the

back edge of the burner pan to lock it in position.

5. Center this assembly in the fireplace and place as

far back in the fireplace as possible. Remove grate

(item 7) for gas connection and granule placement.

6. Connect larger elbow from connector kit (item 15)

to gas supply. Using connector kit tubing, connect

gas supply to the small connector elbow on the

regulator (installed in step 2).

7. Turn on the gas to the fireplace and test for leaks

with soapy water solution. (Never use open flame for

testing).

GRANULE OR VERMICULITE PLACEMENT

With the burner off and grate removed, fill the burner

pan completely with granules or vermiculite (Item

12). Slope the granules or vermiculite at the same

angle as burner pan. Note: Use vermiculite only

when your log set is fueled by propane gas. Do not

use granules with a propane gas log set.

Example of burner flame pattern

LOG PLACEMENT

Proper log placement is important to insure proper

performance of your Williams Classic Gas Log Set.

Be sure to follow log placement instructions careful-

ly. Optional log placement patterns, are explained on

page 7.

PLACEMENT OF BOTTOM LOGS

Place the front and rear bottom logs on the grate (Fig.

1). The longest log is placed in front. The log Iocators

insure that adequate space between the logs are

maintained for a cleaner burn.

FOR YOUR READ BEFORE LIGHTING

WARNING: Ifyou do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may

result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.

The Williams Classic Gas Log Set has a pilot which

must be lit by hand. When lighting the pilot, follow

these instructions exactly.

1. BEFORE LIGHTING, smell all around the gas

log set area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor

because some gas is heavier than air and will settle

on the floor.

• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire

department.

2. Use only your hand to push in or turn the gas

control knob. Never use tools. If the knob will not

push in or turn by hand, don't try to repair it. Call a

qualified service technician. Force or attempted re-

pair may result in fire or explosion.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS

• Do not try to light the appliance

• Do not touch any electrical switch, do not use any

phone in your building.

• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor's

phone. Follow the gas supplier's instructions.

3. Do not use the gas log set if any part has been

under water. Immediately call a qualified service

technician to inspect the gas log set and to replace

any part of the control system and any gas control

which has been under water.

PILOT BURNER ADJUSTMENT

The pilot burner is preset at the factory and should

normally not require any adjustment. However, should

adjustment be necessary, the following steps should

be taken:

With the pilot burner lit and the control knob in the

pilot position, remove phillips head screw (item 29)

and heat shield face (item 26). Carefully remove the

cap screw located on the control valve (see Figure

10). Using a long narrow screwdriver, turn the pilot

quiet soft blue flame with yellow tipping which encir-

cles the thermocouple tip.

Reassemble the cap screw and gasket to the valve

body, insuring that the cap screw and gasket are

firmly seated on the valve body. Replace heat shield

face (item 26) and phillips head screw (item 29). Turn

the control knob to the "on" position to assure proper

DAMPER STOP CLAMP INSTRUCTIONS

The Damper Stop Clamp with hex bolt (Fig. 11 ) is

_rovided as a means to prevent full closure of the

damper blade. The clamp is easily attached to most

damper blades with pliers or wrench, and must be

permanently instaLled. The clamp is designed to

prevent accidental closure of the damper when in-

stalled as illustrated (Figs. 12 and 13). Should the

clamp not fit, or fail to provide the permanent vent

opening listed in the table found on page 2, have a

)ermanent stop installed, remove the damper blade

or have the damper cut to provide the minimum

)ermanent opening required.
