Safety Information
Location
During normal operation, the GF 300 DV gas stove will
reach high surface temperatures. Therefore:
In selecting a location for the stove, consider the
following points:
1) Heat distribution
2) Vent termination requirements
3) Gas supply line routing
4) Traffic areas, furniture, draperies, etc.
„ Due to the high operating temperatures, this appli-
ance should be located out of traffic areas and away
from furniture and draperies.
The GF 300 DV may be located on or near conven-
tional construction materials, however, proper clearance
to combustibles must be maintained in order to provide
adequate air circulation around the appliance. Also, it is
important to provide adequate access around the stove
for servicing and proper operation.
„ Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards
of high surface temperatures and should stay away to
avoid burns and/or clothing ignition.
The clearance and hearth specifications listed in this
manual are the minimum requirements for combustible
material. A combustible material is anything that can
burn (i.e. sheet rock, wall paper, wood, fabrics etc.). These
surfaces are not limited to those that are visible and also
include materials that may be located behind non-
combustibles.
„ Young children should be supervised while they are in
the same room as the GF 300 DV gas stove.
„ Clothing or other flammable materials should not be
placed ON or NEAR the GF 300 DV gas stove.
Surveiller les enfants. Garder les vetements, les
meubles, l’essence ou autres liquides a vapeur
inflammables loin de l’appareil.
If you are not sure of the combustible nature of a
material, consult your local fire officials. Remember,“Fire
Resistant” materials are considered combustible: they
are difficult to ignite, but will burn. Also,“fire-rated”
sheet rock is considered combustible.
„ NEVER store or use gasoline or any other flammable
vapors or liquids in the vicinity of the GF 300 DV gas
stove.
Hearth Requirements
The GF 300 DV gas stove CANNOT be installed directly on
carpeting, vinyl, linoleum or Pergo®.
„ Never burn any other materials in your GF 300 DV
Allagash gas stove, it is strictly designed for use with
natural gas or propane fuel ONLY.
If this appliance will be installed on any combustible
material OTHER THAN WOOD, a floor pad must be
installed that is either metal or wood, or a listed hearth
pad. This floor protection must extend the full width
and depth of the appliance. It is not necessary to remove
carpeting, vinyl or linoleum from underneath the floor
protection. See fig. 1.
·„Any safety screen, glass or guard removed for servic-
ing the appliance must be replaced prior to operating
the appliance.

Venting Requirements
Vent Restriction
The GF 300 DV is equipped with an Exhaust Restrictor
Plate which enables you to regulate the flow of exhaust
gas. The plate prevents overly strong draft that can cause
poor combustion and weak flame picture. Follow the
guidelines below, and on the following pages, to deter-
mine the correct restrictor plate setting for your particu-
lar installation configuration.
The Jøtul GF 300 DV gas stove may be installed with a
vertical or horizontal termination and must conform to
the configuration requirements described below.
This appliance is approved for use with vent systems
from the following manufacturers:
• Simpson Dura-Vent GS
• Amerivent Corporation
• Security Vent Ltd.
• Selkirk Metalbestos
Exhaust Restrictor
Use parts of one manufacturer only - DO NOT MIX
VENT COMPONENTS FROM DIFFERENT MANUFACTURERS
IN THE SAME SYSTEM.
The Exhaust Restrictor is an adjustable shutter located at
the top right side of the firebox. It is adjusted by moving
a pivot pin into one of four positions. It is set in the FULLY
OPEN (D) position at the factory. See Fig. 7. The four
positions correlate to the termination zones (A,B,C,D)
diagramed in figures 9-12. Consult these Vent Window
diagrams on pages 10-11 to determine the setting you
should use.
Installation of any components not manufactured or
approved by Jøtul or failure to meet all clearance require-
ments will void all warranties and could result in prop-
erty damage, bodily injury, or serious fire.
The approved vent configurations described in this
manual are derived from extensive testing under con-
trolled laboratory conditions. Gas appliance performance
can be negatively affected by variables present in the
installation environment, i.e: atmospheric pressure,
strong prevailing winds, adjacent structures and trees,
snow accumulation, etc. These conditions should be
taken into consideration by the installer and stove owner
when planning the vent system design.
Additional restriction may be needed depending the
overall vent height. If necessary, use Simpson Dura-Vent
Restrictor Disk #929.
Adjusting Exhaust Restrictor Plate:
1. Use the Vent Window diagrams to determine which
setting position to use.
IMPORTANT
2. Remove the Top Plate.
• JOINT SEALING REQUIREMENT: APPLY A 1/8” BEAD OF
HIGH-TEMPERATURE (750°F) SEALANT TO THE MALE
SECTION OF THE INNER VENT
3. Locate the pivot pin at the right side of the firebox top.
Use a 7 mm or 9/32 nut driver to loosen the nut on
the pivot pin and then push the pin to the left to
disengage it from the current factory-set position.
Move the pin forward and into the slot appropriate for
your specific vent configuration. See figs. 6 and 7.

Vertical Vent Termination
The Jøtul GF 300 DV can be vertically vented through a
ceiling or to a roof termination with the following
guidelines:
„ The termination should fall within the shaded areas
of the grids depicted in the Vent Window diagrams on
pages 10 - 11.
Figure 7. Use a nut driver to change the Exhaust
Restrictor setting.
„ Maximum Vertical run should not exceed 35 ft. (10.66 m).
„ Minimum Vertical run must be at least 8 ft. (2.43 m).
„ Max. Colinear Horizontal run is 2 ft. (61 cm).
„ Vent Terminus Clearance: In no case shall any dis-
charge opening on the cap be less than 18 in. (610
mm) horizontally from the roof surface.
Horizontal Overhang
„ Steep roofs, nearby trees, and predominantly windy
conditions can contribute to poor draft and/or
promote down-draft occurances. Increasing the
height of the vent may alleviate these conditions.

„ Elbows: Four 45°, or two 90° elbows may be used. Do
not include the 45° elbow attached to the stove.
Whenever possible use 45° elbows instead of 90°
elbows as they are less restrictive to exhaust gas and
intake air flow.
„ A firestop is required at every floor. The opening
should be framed to 10" X 10" inside dimension.
„ Any venting that is exposed above the first floor,
regardless of attic space or living space, must be
enclosed. Always maintain the required 1" clearance
from all sides of the vertical vent system.

Flame Appearance / Air Shutter
Adjustment
Optional Wall Thermostat or
Remote Control
The GF 300 DV gas stove is shipped from the factory
equipped to burn Natural gas. If the stove has been
converted for use with propane, the Air Shutter may
require adjustment to achieve the desired flame appear-
ance. Other installation related variables can also affect
the flame picture. The Air Shutter may be opened or
closed to provide the best flame picture for your specific
installation.
Use only a 750 millivolt DC two-wire circuit thermostat
with this appliance. The thermostat should be placed in
the same room as the heater, typically 5 feet off the
floor. Avoid drafty areas or any area that may affect the
accuracy of the thermostat.
The thermostat should be connected to the GF 300
DV using a minimum of 16 gauge wire with a maxi-
mum length of 25 feet of wire.
Too large an air opening - the appliance will generate
a flame that is blue and transparent, or an “anemic”
flame.
Connect the two thermostat wire leads to the two
lower terminals on the terminal block located directly
above the ignitor button. Do not overtighten the
connections. IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO DISCONNECT
ANY OTHER WIRES. See Fig. 31.
Too small an air setting - the appliance will generate
very long yellow flames resulting in soot. Sooting pro-
duces black deposits on the logs, on the inside walls of
the appliance, and potentially on the exterior termination
cap. Sooting is caused by incomplete combustion in the
flames and lack of combustion air entering the air shutter
opening.
For thermostatic operation, the On/Off/T-Stat
switch on the back of the stove must be in the T-stat
position, and the pilot light must be running, as it is the
power source for the thermostat.
At the thermostat, the two wires should be con-
nected to the two connection screws on the thermostat
base plate per the manufacturer’s instructions.
To adjust the air shutter:
1. Reach under the right side of the stove and loosen the
wingnut located closest to you. See fig. 30. Slide the
wingnut stud forward to open the air shutter and back
to provide less air. Make adjustments in small incre-
ments.
Remote Control
When using a remote, the remote receiver should be
wired to the terminal block the same way the thermo-
stat would be. See the instructions above.
Follow the operating instructions included with the
Remote Control unit.
2. Tighten the wingnut to secure the shutter at the
desired setting.
CAUTION:
3. Allow the stove to burn for 30 minutes on the HIGH
setting, observing the flame continuously. If the flame
appears weak, slow, or sooty, repeat the process
described above until the flame is as desired.
LABEL ALL WIRES PRIOR TO DISCONNECTION
WHEN SERVICING THE CONTROLS. WIRING
ERRORS CAN CAUSE IMPROPER OR DANGEROUS
OPERATION. ALWAYS VERIFY PROPER OPERA-
TION AFTER SERVICING THE APPLIANCE.

Log Set Installation
Brick Kit Note: Install the optional Antique Brick Kit
155370 before installing the logset. See page 27 and
the instructions provided with that kit.
The GF 300 DV logset must be installed before operat-
ing the burner. The logset includes four log pieces,
packaged inside the firebox, and a quantity of ember
stones packaged in the Miscellaneous Parts bag. To
install the log set, remove the packaging and place the
parts inside the firebox as illustrated in figs 32-36. Do
not handle the log set with your bare hands. Always
wear gloves to prevent skin irritation from the ceramic
fibers.
Figure 33. Install Right Log
The ember stones realistically simulate glowing
coals when the burner is operating. These should be
spread evenly over the burner plate and around the logs. DO
NOT OBSTRUCT THE PILOT ASSEMBLY OPENING. Do not pile
up the embers in front ot the burner skirt edges. See fig. 36.
NOTE: You do not need to use all of the
ember stones. With experimentation, you will
find the arrangement and quantity of embers
that works best with your stove. Depending upon
the characteristics of your installation, it is
possible that too many ember stones can pro-
mote sooting on the logs. Adjust the quantity of
ember stones as appropriate to maintain the best
overall flame picture and burner performance.

2. PILOT FLAME: You can monitor the pilot flame
through the view port located at the rear of the
Right Log. See fig. 37. The pilot flame should be
steady - not lifting or floating. The flame should be
blue in color around the pilot hood, with traces of
yellow toward the outer edges.
Figure 37. Proper pilot flame appearance.
The pilot flame should engulf the top 3/8” of the
thermopile (to generate millivolt current) and the
top 1/8” of the thermocouple. The pilot flame
should project out of the pilot hood 1” at all three
ports. See fig. 37.
CAUTION:
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ALTER THE FLAME
APPEARANCE BY POSITIONING THE GAS
VALVE CONTROL IN ANY OTHER POSITION
OTHER THAN THE FULL “ON” POSITION.
3. BURNER ADJUSTMENT: This stove is equipped with a
variable gas control valve that allows easy adjust-
ment of the flame height appearance and heat
output. To adjust the flame between the HI and
LOW setting, rotate the HI/LOW knob, located in the
center of the valve face. Flame height will adjust
approximately 1” to 2” between the LOW and HIGH
settings. See fig. 38.
NO SMOKE OR SOOT SHOULD BE PRESENT. CHECK
LOG PLACEMENT IF ANY SOOT OR SMOKE IS
PRESENT. IF SOOT OR SMOKE PERSISTS, THE AIR
SHUTTER MAY NEED TO BE ADJUSTED.
See Air Shutter/Flame Appearance section of this
manual for proper air shutter settings and adjust-
ments. Note: the more offsets there are in the vent
system, the greater the need for an air shutter
adjustment. See page 20.

Blower Operation
The optional variable-speed blower will enhance heat
circulation around the firebox and out into the room.
The blower is controlled by a heat activated switch
(snapstat) that will ONLY function when the control
switch is in AUTO setting. After the fire has been
burning for a time, the snapstat will react to the heat
and activate the blower. Fan speed may be manually
adjusted with the rheostat knob. If the burner turns off,
the blower will be shut off automatically when the
stove cools down.
