She's sitting in the parking lot of my office now. Just need to get this 475 pound mass of stone and metal inside. It's times like this that I am glad it's not an Equinox or equally heavy stove.
Is the stove bolted to a pallet and you are moving the pallet onto a dolly? Or are the legs strong enough to be used?
Update...I had 3 guys who will be doing the hearth pad and installation bring a furniture mover. We managed to slide it from the pallet to the furniture mover then rolled it up without too much hassle up the wheelchair sidewalk ramp and inside. Then, we put it near the front door where it will sit for 8 weeks. Applied a generous coating of the supplied stove polish / paint and she looks beautiful. As the guys faced her glass towards the wall, I removed the heat shield so I could polish that part and have that naked stone to look at. This is going to be an easier finish to maintain. My enameled Heritage chips and doesn't look as good when you try to touch it up. This you just wipe down anytime you want with the polish and all looks new again.
I also have a matte black heritage and the paint is so-so. You used that stove polish to make it shine? Just the casting? Anything on the stone?
I still think you got a lemon with your cast iron. Fire's Heritage was made between 2004-2006 and the cast iron is in really good shape.
The iron is fine, the paint is just falling off in a couple of places plus the top front corner by the side loading door where I likely put my hand a little too often.
Waiting for pics of that Beauty installed!
(And BrowningBars 30 too )
That ugly SOB is suppose to be here Monday.
Plenty of time to buy that brown paint.
Congrats to the OP on the new rock.
