THERMOSTAT
This wood heater thermostat has a manufacturer-set minimum low burn rate that must not be altered. It is
against regulations to alter this setting or otherwise operate this wood heater in a manner inconsistent with
operating instructions in this manual. If the thermostat malfunctions contact your dealer for replacement by a
qualifi ed installer.
THERMOMETER
The combustor thermometer tells you what was happening 4-8 minutes ago, and remember, it is only an
indication of the temperatures of the gasses after they pass through the combustor. The thermometer probe,
the part that fi ts into the stove, must be cleaned at least once a year. Lift it from the stove (be careful, it may
be hot) and wipe or scrape it clean. At room temperature, away from the stove, the indicator should point near
the bottom of the “Inactive” zone. If, after several years use, you fi nd that the needle no longer points to the
bottom of the “Inactive” zone when the thermometer has been at room temperature for 10 minutes or longer, it
may need adjustment. Holding the probe with a pair of pliers, loosen the bolt on the top of the dial. Turn the
dial to align the pointer with the bottom of the “Inactive” zone, then retighten the bolt.
