UNPACK & INSPECT FOR DAMAGE
Unpack
The Tucson is packaged by the manufacturer to
withstand shipment without damage under most
circumstances. However, damage can occur
during transit and handling. Care should be taken
when unpacking, inspecting for damage, and
installing the unit.
If any damaged or missing
parts are detected, immediately contact your
dealer.
After removing the shipping carton, carefully
remove the top three stones and grill. Use the
protective wrapping material to temporarily
protect the stones from chipping or damage while
the unit is inspected and installed.
With the top stones and grill removed and set
aside, undo the lag bolts that fasten the unit to the
pallet. Take care not to mar or chip the legs if
enameled. Lift the stove off the pallet and set it
in place, (with regards to the Clearances To
Combustibles section of this manual.)
Inspect for damage
I
nspect the Tucson for visible and/or concealed
damage. The unit should appear to be square and
true. The stones should be whole and without
cracks, chips, or breakage. The sheet metal parts
should be smooth and free of bends and/or dents.
If the heater is enameled, the enameled cast iron
should be free of chips and/or cracks. If visible or
concealed damage is found or suspected, contact
your local dealer for instructions.
The Owner’s Manual, thermostat (with wire),
removable ash lip, and the decorative ceramic fiber
logs, supplied with the Tucson, are contained within
the firebox. It is important to wear the safety
goggles and gloves when handling the log set.
Open the firebox door using a 5/32 allen wrench
and inspect the logs for damage. If a damaged log
is encountered, contact your local dealer for
replacement logs. Put the logset, thermostat, and
the ash lip aside. They will be installed later.
