STEP 2:
"Dry" assemble (i.e. without mortar) the two halves of the Leveling Pad (Part #1 & #2) on the
"Thermotect" board (optional), or on the concrete floor pad, so that the air intake slot is not
obstructed and is centered in front of the Leveling Pad. Ensure that the 6" (150mm) diameter ash
drop is located within the cut-out section of the base. CHECK THAT THE FLOOR IS
REASONABLY LEVEL BEFORE STARTING TO INSTALL THE LEVELLING PAD -
ADDITIONAL MORTAR MAY BE NEEDED TO LEVEL IT AS REQUIRED.
Lay the two halves of the Leveling Pad in a 1/2" (12mm) bed of common mortar, using refractory
mortar between them. Using the 48" level, tap the base into the mortar, ensuring that it is level.
Before the mortar has set, tap down along the centre-line of the leveling pad, so that the centre of
the pad is about 3/16” lower than the sides. (See illustration below.) This centre-line gap will
ensure that parts in the upper courses lean in slightly, simplifying installation.
