3.4 Chimneys and flue pipes
• The fireplace can be connected to a chimney and flue
pipe approved for solid fuel fired appliances with flue gas
temperatures specified in «2.0 Technical data.
• The chimney’s cross-section must be at least as big as the
flue pipe’s cross-section. See «2.0 Technical data» when
calculating the correct chimney cross-section.
• Several solid fuel fired appliances can be connected to the
same chimney if the chimney’s cross-section is sufficient.
• Connection to the chimney must be carried out in accordance with
the installation instructions from the supplier of the chimney.
• Before making a hole in the chimney the fireplace should be
test-mounted in order to correctly mark the position of the
fireplace and the hole in the chimney. See fig. 1 for minimum
dimensions.
• Ensure that the flue pipe is inclined all the way up to the
chimney.
• Use a flue pipe bend with a sweeping hatch that allows it to
be swept.
Be aware of the fact that it is particularly important that
connections have a certain flexibility in order to prevent
movement in the installation leading to cracks. N.B. A correct and
sealed connection is very important for the proper functioning
of the product.
Chimney draught; See «2.0 Technical data». If the draught is
too strong you can install and operate a flue damper to control
the draught.
3.5 Assembly prior to installation
N.B. Check that the fireplace is free of any damage prior to
commencing installation.
The product is heavy! Make sure you have assistance when
erecting and installing the fireplace.
• The standard product is delivered in two packing cases. One

fireplace, and attach the legs to the screws (fig. 2A).
2. Attach the stiffener between the rear legs - see fig. 3A.
3. The floor shall be protected from heat from the product using the
supplied heat shield. Attach it to the 4 screws as shown in fig. 4.
4. Make sure to have assistance and lift the product carefully up.
5. Adjust the product with the aid of the 4 adjusting screws in
each corner (see fig. 3B).
6. Re-attach the rear heat shield (cast iron) by first hanging it
on the top screws. Lift it up slightly and then lower it onto
the lower screw.
7. Replace the top plate with the air grid and bowl.
Jøtul F 273 - Attaching the column
1. The pedestal consists of 4 parts, the pedestal foot, 2 pedestal
parts and an air chamber.
2. Screw the pedestal sections together using 2 bolts M8 x 25
and 2 bolts M6 x 25, as shown in fig. 5A.
3. Screw the pedestal to the foot plate using 4 bolts (M8 x 25),
see fig. 5B-6B.
Turn plate
If the turn plate shall be mounted, this shall be done now before
the base plate is attached to the fireplace. See the installation
instructions that are included with the turn plate.
4. Attach the pedestal to the fireplace’s base plate using 4 bolts
(M8 x 20), see fig. 5C. The seams on the pedestal shall face
the sides of the product and the opening for outdoor air shall
face backwards (see: «Fresh air supply through the base»).
5. Make sure to have assistance and lift the product carefully up.
6 Adjust the product with the aid of the 4 adjusting screws in
each corner (see fig. 6A).
7. Re-attach the rear heat shield (cast iron) by first hanging it
on the top screws. Lift it up slightly and then lower it onto
the lower screw.
8. Place the top plate in position with the air grid and bowl.
Jøtul F 274 - Cast iron base
1. Unscrew the screws that are screwed in the corners of the
fireplace, and attach the legs to the screws (fig. 2A).
2. The floor shall be protected from heat from the product using the
supplied heat shield. Attach it to the 4 screws as shown in fig. 4.
3. Make sure to have assistance and lift the product carefully up.
4. Adjust the product with the aid of the 4 adjusting screws in
each corner (see fig. 3B).
5. Re-attach the rear heat shield (cast iron) by first hanging it
on the top screws. Lift it up slightly and then lower it onto
the lower screw.
6. Replace the top plate with the air grid and bowl.
If external air supply through the external air vent is to be used,
connect a flexible hose, Ø 100 mm, to the external air vent (Fig.
4C) on the product at this stage.
Installation with external air supply
1. Push the lever on the external air vent to its forward position
(Fig. 10 A).
2. Attach the hose to the external air vent using a hose clip.
NB! Make sure the hose is long enough so that joints are not
necessary.
3. Push the cast iron base toward the burn chamber and, at the
same time, push the external air hose through the foot and,
if necessary, through the opening in the back edge of the cast
iron base.
4. Attach the base to the burn chamber using the 4 screws (M8
x 30 mm) from the bag of screws.
5. With the help of another person, carefully raise the product
and position it correctly over the external air supply.
6. Adjust the height of the product, if necessary, using the
adjustment screws beneath the foot (Fig. 3B).
