Hey, everybody! I am installing an Englander 17VL today, and in my preparation, I noted that the top vermiculate baffle had shifted during delivery. It seems like it's supposed to be adhered to the back of the stove and rest on the refractory baffles. In the image I've shifted it to the back of the stove (bottom of the picture) against the adhesive I think lost its grip. Is this correct?

Hello darl,
i am pretty sure that the second baffle board (closest to the exhaust exit) is supposed to be all the way towards the front of the stove, unless mine is in there wrong. haha.
