I think they help hold the base on?Not sure,and not gonna flip mine over right now,lol.Yes there are bolts in mine,also.

OK those holes are for screwing it to a floor,if installed in mobile home or trailer,should be plugged otherwise.

Okay thank you, wonder why they had them out. It was used in a basement. Now to figure out bolt type

Some people screw them to the stove board.Don't know why.

Just a thought, if your not going to bolt it down just find decrorative bolts that slide in the holes. Very short and a little rtv just to keep em there

 

[Dontilgon]

Would not having the bolts installed make the stove run any different?

 

[Mt Bob]

Yes can make it run poorly
