position). For a low burn setting once the high
burn (or medium) fuel load is burned down to an
established coal bed, load the unit with 19 lbs of
cordwood and close the door immediately. Leave
the air control fully open (in the “HI” position) for
13 minutes. After 15 minutes begin to push the air
control in to the “Low” position (air control fully
pushed in). NOTE: Do not close the air too quickly.
Closing the air too quickly will cause the unit to
smoke.

WARNINGS:
• NEVER OVERFIRE YOUR STOVE. IF ANY
PART OF THE STOVE STARTS TO GLOW RED,
OVER FIRING IS HAPPENING. READJUST
THE AIR INTAKE CONTROL AT A LOWER
SETTING.
• THE INSTALLATION OF A LOG CRADLE OR
GRATES IS NOT RECOMMENDED IN YOUR
WOOD STOVE. BUILD FIRE DIRECTLY ON
FIREBRICK.
• NEVER PUT WOOD ABOVE THE FIREBRICK
LINING OF THE FIREBOX.
• ATTEMPTS TO ACHIEVE HEAT OUTPUT
RATES THAT EXCEED HEATER DESIGN
SPECIFICATIONS CAN RESULT IN
PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE HEATER.
VISIBLE SMOKE
The amount of visible smoke being produced can be
an effective method of determining how efficiently
the combustion process is taking place in the given
settings. Visible smoke consists of unburned fuel
and moisture leaving your stove. Learn to adjust
the air settings of your specific unit to produce the
smallest amount of visible smoke. Wood that has
not been seasoned properly and has a high wood
moisture content will produce excess visible smoke
and burn poorly.
AIR TUBES
The air tubes assembled in this unit are designed to
provide an accurate mix of secondary air to ensure
the highest efficiency. Any damage or deterioration
of these tubes may reduce the efficiency of
combustion. The air tubes are held in position by
screws or snap pins. Locate these to either side
of the tube and remove it to allow the tube to be
removed and replaced.
BLOWER OPERATION
The variable-speed blower circulates air warmed
by the firebox into the living area to distribute
the heat more evenly. The blower control knob is
located on the side of the blower housing. Turn the
knob clockwise to turn the blower on. The speed is
controlled by turning the knob clockwise for slower
speeds and counter-clockwise for faster speeds. To
turn the blower off, turn the speed control knob
fully counter-clockwise. It is recommended to turn
the blower off when the unit is not in operation.
The blower should be removed at the beginning of
every “burn” season and air-blown clean, removing
any dust or build-up.
