BRiCK REPlACEMENT iNSTRUCTiONS
The firebox is lined with high quality firebrick which has excep-
tional  insulating  properties.    There  is  no  need  for  a  grate, 
simply build a fire on the firebox of your insert.
1
.  Be certain coals are completely cold.  Remove all old 
brick and ash from unit and vacuum out firebox.
2.  Remove  new  brick  set  from  box  and  lay  out  to THE 
diagram as shown. 
.  Lay bottom bricks in unit.
4.  Install rear bricks on the top of the bottom bricks.  Slide 
top of bricks under clip on back of firebox wall and push 
bottom of brick back.
5.  Install side bricks.  Slide top of brick under clips on side 
of firebox and push the bottom of the brick until it is flush

BAFFLE REMOVAL & INSTALLATION
NOTE:  The baffle material is 2700° Fiber Board.  Removing hardware exposed to combustion processes can be frustrating.  If 
your reason for removing the baffle is simply to clean the chimney, you have alternatives which will save time and effort.  Call 
a qualified chimney sweep or an authorized Quadra-Fire dealer for details.
1.   Remove all ash from firebox, and extinguish all hot embers before disposal into a metal container.
2.  Remove ceramic blanket from above the baffle.
.  With a /16” Allen wrench, remove 2 front manifold tube retainer bolts on the air channel under the end of the front tubes.  NOTE:  
Soak the bolts with penetrating oil for at least 15 minutes before trying to remove them. 
Figure 21A.
4.  To remove manifold tubes, slide the tube to one side until one end is out of its hole.  Then, while lifting that end of the fiber board 
baffle, pull tube up over the air channel and out of hole at the other end. It is necessary to remove the first two tubes in order to 
remove the baffle.  
NOTE:  When replacing the manifold tubes, be sure the tube with the larger holes is placed in the front for 
your insert to operate properly.
5.  Slide fiber board baffle forward to front of stove and straight out through door. 
Figure 21B.
6.  To install the fiber board baffle, repeat steps 2 through 4 in reverse.  Be sure the fiber board baffle and ceramic blanket are 
pushed back fully into position and the ceramic blanket lays flat.
