FOR YOUR SAFETY
Do not store or use gasoline or other
flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of
this or any other appliance.
WARNING:
If the information in this manual is not
followed exactly, a fire or explosion may
result, causing property damage, personal
injury, or loss of life.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS
1. Open a window.
2. Do not try to light any appliance.
3. Do not touch any electrical switch; do not
use the phone in your building.
4. Immediately call your gas supplier from a
neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas
supplier’s instructions.
5. If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call
the fire department.
IMPORTANT: Installation and service must
be performed by a qualified professional
installer, service agency, or the gas supplier.
NOTE: This appliance is only for use with the
type of gas indicated on the rating plate.
Solid-fuels shall not be burned in a fireplace
where a decorative appliance is installed.
Olde World Basket sets are available with
either a gas log or coal look. The gas logs are
made with refractory materials while the coals
are made of ceramic fiber. Each log is hand-
finished to assure the most realistic, detailed
log available. The coal is designed to achieve
the glowing characteristics of real coal. The
burner system is designed to burn like wood,
with a smoky flame. For this reason, the set
must be burned only in a fully vented, non-
combustible fireplace with the damper
completely open (In the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts the damper must be either
permanently welded in the fully open
position or completely removed) and the
chimney free of any obstructions or
restrictions. The fireplace must be designed
and approved to burn wood.
The realistic yellow flame produces carbon
monoxide and soot. Under normal conditions,
these products are exhausted up the chimney.
If fumes or soot, from the gas burning, are
evident in the room when the damper is fully
open it indicates that the fireplace draft is
defective. Do not operate your gas log set
until the fireplace draft is corrected. It is the
home-owners responsibility to assure their
fireplace has adequate draft.
REV 080416

WARNING: This appliance assembly contains burner orifices specifically for the input
gas and Btu rating. Modifying or failure to use the factory orifice may cause property
damage, personal injury or loss of life.
1. It is recommended that adults be present when this gas appliance is operating. It is recommended that this unit
is not left burning when unattended or while anyone is sleeping.
2. Do not use a natural gas set for propane or a propane set for natural gas. If the gas type is not correct. DO NOT
INSTALL. Contact your dealer for immediate assistance.
3. There are many different local codes for gas fire logs. The installation and the provision for combustion and
ventilation air must conform to local codes and, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas
Code ANSI Z223.1 –(most current revision).
4. Gas log sets must be installed by personnel qualified for installing gas appliances.
5. This appliance must be installed only in a solid-fuel burning fireplace with a working flue and constructed of
noncombustible materials. Solid fuels are not to be burned in a fireplace where a decorative appliance has
been installed.
6. A permanent free opening must be provided by either the fireplace chimney or chimney damper to vent flue
gasses. Any chimney damper must be fixed in a manner, which will maintain the permanent free opening at all
times. Use Table II to determine the minimum permanent free opening based on chimney height and the
appliance Btu input rating. Refer to the Damper Stop section for additional directions.
7. The minimum free opening is based only on two factors; chimney height and Btu input rating. Many other
factors affect the fireplace drafting. It is the homeowner’s responsibility to assure their fireplace has adequate
draft. If fumes or soot from the gas burning are evident in the room when the damper is fully open, it indicates
that the fireplace draft is defective. Do not operate your gas log set until the fireplace draft is corrected. Consult
your fireplace specialist.
8. A fireplace screen must be in place when the appliance is operating and, unless other provisions for combustion
air are provided, the screen shall have an opening(s) for introduction of combustion air.
9. When glass fireplace doors are used, always operate gas log set with the doors fully open to allow for proper
combustion air and to keep control valves from overheating.
10. The minimum inlet supply pressure for the purpose of input adjustment is 5.0 inches (natural gas) 11 inches
(propane gas) in water column. The maximum inlet supply pressure is 10.5 inches (natural gas) 13 inches
(propane gas) in water column.
11. The appliance and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5kPa). The appliance must be
isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual valve during pressure testing equal
to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5kPa).
12. The fireplace chimney or venting system should be examined annually and cleaned as required by a qualified
agency.
13. After burning for several hours the logs become fragile and should not be handled. Knocking or rubbing logs
can cause concrete to crumble and is not covered under the warranty.
14. To clean the logs, use a soft dry paintbrush for periodic dusting of the gas fire logs.
15. To clean the burner, shut off the gas supply, remove the burner pan media, and vacuum the burner ports. After
cleaning, replace burner pan media and light the pilot according to the lighting instructions.

LIGHTING THE PILOT
Read the lighting instruction plate
attached to the gas valve or located at
the end of these instructions.
Push in gas control knob slightly and turn
clockwise until the knob will not turn any
longer. This is the “OFF” position. The
word off should be at the 12 o’clock
position on the control knob.
Slightly push in on pilot knob and turn
valve to the “PILOT” position. Push the
knob in all the way and hold in.
Immediately light the pilot. (The pilot is
located on the back right corner of the
burner pan) Continue to hold the knob for
at least 30 seconds after the pilot is lit.
Release the knob and the pilot should
remain lit.
Turn the burner to the “ON”, the pilot
flame should ignite the main burner within
4 seconds.
Carefully check the connections for
leaks using a soapy solution.
NOTE- if the pilot will not stay lit after
several tries turn the control off and
call a technician.
IMPORTANT: These controls are factory preset and
will not normally require additional adjustment of the
pilot flame. If field adjustment of the pilot flame is
required, adjust using the pilot adjustment screw. The
90 degree pilot should produce 2 flames about 1-1 ½”
in 2 directions. One flame should come towards the
front of the firebox to ignite the burner and the other,
wrapping around the thermocouple to ensure proper
valve operation.
BURNER MEDIA
Fill the burner pan with vermiculite. The
media level should fill the burner entirely.
Under filling will cause uneven flame.
Glowing Embers (Rockwool) are placed
over the media. For best results pinch off
pieces of the rockwool the size of a dime
and feather it out
Test fire the burner once again for
flame distribution, media can be
altered to achieve desired flame
appearance.
