1. With the control compartment to your left, place one of the two secondary oor panels in the right side
of the rebox (Figure 1) and route the two wires from the lights underneath the plate over to the left hand
side of the rebox (Figure 2).

2. Feed the two wires from the right side secondary oor panel down through the left most grommet over the
gas control compartment cover (Figure 3).
3. Insert the other secondary oor panel into the left side of the rebox. As the panel is lowered, feed its two
lights wires into the same grommet as was done with the wires from the right hand oor panel. Also feed
the pilot assembly through the square opening in the panel (Figure 4).

4. Guide the four light wires from the bottom of the gas control compartment out through the opening as
shown in Figure 5.
5. From inside the control compartment, punch out one of two available knockouts located in the electrical
connection compartment, install a plastic grommet (not included) to protect the wires and feed the wires
into the compartment. (Figure 6).

6. Remove the electrical connection compartment cover and feed all four lights wires through the opening.
The lights wiring will connect to the wiring that supplies the re place power (Figure 7).
7. Connect the wires to a switched 120 VAC, 60Hz, 3A power supply, one pair made up of one wire from the
left and one wire from the right light set to the “HOT” incoming line. The remaining pair to the “Neutral”
incoming line. See “Lights Wiring Diagram” on page 22. Reinstall the electrical connection compart-
ment cover.
8. Return to the rebox and secure the two secondary oor panels with four T20 screws for each of the two
panels.
9. From the REAR of the replace, position one of the two burners on an angle and attach the pilot assembly
to the burner leg using two Robertson screws provided (Figure 8). Note that the pilot will be positioned on
an angle.

10. Slip the gas burner venturi over the orice and screw the burner leg to the secondary oor panel using a
T20 screw (Figure 9).
11. Place the second burner in the rebox so that its venturi ts over the second orice. Secure the leg to the
secondary oor panel.

15. Place mesh burner tray over top of the burners so that its legs rest on the secondary oor. The side of the
tray with the mesh strip crossing over from one side to the other must be positioned over top of the pilot
assembly. Screw down the ends of the tray to the ledge of the side panels - two on each side (Figure 15).

16. Secure the mesh to the burners with screws provided by screwing through the mesh to each small ange
on the burners. There are 10 securing points for each burner (Figure 16).
17. Place the two porcelain edge panels into the replace with the narrow edge facing the center of the re-
place (Figure 17 and Figure 18). The edge panels rest in place and are not screwed down.

WARNING
This conversion kit shall be installed by a qualified service agency in accordance with the manufac-
turer's instructions and all applicable codes and requirements of the authority having jurisdiction.
If the information in these instructions is not followed exactly, a fire, explosion or production of carbon
monoxide may result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.
The qualified service agency is responsible for the proper installation of this kit.
The installation is not proper and complete until the operation of the converted appliance is checked
as specified in the manufacturer's instructions supplied with the kit.
If this unit is to be used on propane convert as follows using the components supplied with the propane gas
conversion kit. Propane conversion kit part number is TCWS.54DSTLPKIT.
Note: Factory supplied components must be used to ensure correct input. After conversion conrm proper
manifold pressure.
CAUTION
The gas supply and electrical power shall be shut off before proceeding with the conversion.
Propane Conversion
1. If installed, remove the glass
media from the burner tray and
remove the edge panels.
2. If installed, remove the burner
tray by removing the screws
attaching the tray to the burn-
ers and side panels (Figure 16
on page 11) as well as the
two screws on each end of the
tray which are screwed into the
side panels.
3. Remove burners from the ori-
ces. Remove pilot assembly if
necessary.

4. Using a 1/2” wrench, undo the
natural gas burner orices and
replace with the propane gas
orices included in the conver-
sion kit. Apply a small amount
of pipe joint compound to the
threads of the propane burner
orice to ensure a good seal,
before screwing it into the
manifold.
5. Loosen the primary air shutter
screw on each burner, open
the shutter to give a gap of
3/16” and re-tighten (Figure
22).
6. With a 7/16” wrench loosen the
pilot head on the pilot assem-
bly (Figure 23).

For complete valve
conversion installation
instructions, refer to the
instruction book included
in the SIT conversion kit.
WARNING: Both the
control box shield and
the access panel must
be reinstalled after
conversion/ installation
or servicing has been
completed. Failure to
do so will cause over-
heating and premature
failure of the control
system.
7. Slide the pilot adjustment
band over (Figure 25) and
ensure that the hole in the
orice band is showing.
8. Remove access panel to gain
access to the gas valve for
propane conversion.
9. Complete the gas valve con-
version from natural gas to
propane gas according to the
instructions included in the
SIT propane gas conversion
kit.
10. Once conversion is complete,
ll out and afx the gas con-
version label (Figure 26) to the
gas valve inside of control box
where it will not be affected
by the heat of the rebox.

Gas Pressure Check
Note: To test the gas pressure, turn off the gas supply before removing the plug from the supply
pressure test port or manifold pressure test port.
Verify gas pressures with the fireplace lit and on the highest setting.

The air shutter on the burner tube controls the primary combustion air. It is set to the closed position at the
factory for natural gas fuel. For liquid propane, See “Propane Conversion” on page 13. Some adjustment
may be necessary to obtain desired ame and to eliminate carbon deposits. Evaluate ame appearance after
the replace has reached operating temperature. See Figure 29 for proper ame pattern.
Open primary air if the window glass and rebox have carbon accumulation and/or the ames are long, dark
and stringy. The shutter may also be opened to lessen the ame height.
Burner Flame Adjustment
NOTE:
Proper air shutter setting is required.
The flame should be just orange and “lazy”. It should NEVER be set to create sooting on internal parts
and window glass. Allow the fireplace to run for 30 minutes before evaluating flame appearance.

Optional Long Beach Log Set Installation
Log Placement
The Long Beach Log Set consists of four pair of logs for a total of eight logs. Four of the logs will cover one
half of the circumference of the glass tray while the other four will duplicate the pattern of the of the rst four.
Images shown exclude the Diamond glass placement for clarity.
1. Place log 1 so that its’ outer edge is almost at the furthest edge of the tray (Figure 31).
Log 1 x 2 pieces Log 2 x 2 pieces

2. Place the 2nd log so that the middle of it overhangs the tray itself and rests on the edge panel as shown
in Figure 32. Note that there is a location post for the 3rd log at one end of the 2nd log. This location post
should have a vertical alignment.

3. The 3rd log has a socket on the bottom of one end which will t onto the location post of the 2nd log.
Once the socket and location post have been mated, move the opposite end of the 3rd log toward the
edge panel so that its’ middle branch is resting on the edge panel (Figure 33).

4. The 4th log also has a socket which will t over top of the location post of the 3rd log. Fit the 4th log over
the location post and let the opposite end rest on the glass at about a 1 o’clock position (Figure 34).
5. Repeat the previous steps to complete the log set installation (Figure 35).
