attaching Princess side panels

[RustyShackleford]

My Princess (circa 2010) shipped with the side panels un-installed. I never installed them but want to try it now. I can't quite figure out how they're supposed to install.

The stove body has two tabs (on each side), near the upper and lower front corners ..

It looks like a slot on the panel just slips over the lower tab . The upper tab is split (two tabs right together) and with a bolt hole; there's a slot on the panel that could fit between the two tabs or over both, and I don't see any way to insert a bolt, so not sure what should be done here. Finally, looks like the rear edge of the cover fit behind the rear edge of the stove; there are bolt holes there too, but I see no way to thread a nut on, so I guess you just use sheet-metal screws.

Thread 'Older Blaze King and Blower Fan and Side Panels'

Feb 9, 2020

Hi I am working on another project. I was in an second hand store and saw this Blaze King sitting against the wall and asked about it and was able to pick it up for $100.00. While it may seem like a good deal the whole top inside was bent and warped. I had to cut the top off the stove and put all new metal inside. And yes this as a catalytic combuster which I would say was in good condition. This stove will be like new when it is finished. I am wondering if anyone knows how the blower hooks up on the back. I have been looking at blower fans on the internet and can come up with a design...
