LATE
There is a vent restriction plate that adjusts the flow
rate of exhaust gases. This insures proper flames
and efficiency for the wide variety of vent
configurations. Controlling the draft also changes
the aesthetics of the flame. The restriction plate
consists of a rotating shutter behind the starter
section of pipe and an adjustment plate with an
index hole used to hold the shutter in a fixed
position. The restriction plate has unlimited settings.
Depending on the vent configuration, you may be
required to adjust the restriction plate position.
For
straight out the back installations no adjustment
to the restrictor is necessary.

Make sure the unit is cool before touching any part
of the firebox. To adjust your restrictor for maximum
flame appearance, loosen the Phillips head screw,
found on the upper rear right side of the stove. Spin
the indicator tab into the desired position. Rotating
counterclockwise closes the exhaust gasses, while
rotating clockwise opens the exhaust gases. Once
the desired restriction is reached, tighten the screw.
There are unlimited positions for the restriction plate,
one (1) being the lowest and three (3) being the
highest. (Refer to Venting Configuration –
Figure 4
for recommended restriction plate positions)
NOTE: These positions are based on lab
results and can have some variance.
