Hi-Flame HF-717UA Installation And Operation Instructions Manual Download Page 6

 

Check Building Codes 

•  When installing, operating and maintaining your stove, follow the guidelines presented in 

these instructions, and make them available to anyone using or servicing the stove. 

• 

Your city, town, county or province may require a building permit to install a solid fuel 
burning appliance. 

•  In the U.S., the National Fire Protection Association's Code, NFPA 211, Standards for 

Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents and Solid Fuel Burning Appliances, or similar regulations, may 
apply to the installation of a solid fuel burning appliance in your area. 

• 

Always consult your local building inspector or authority having jurisdiction to 
determine what regulations apply in your area

Before installing your stove 

You need to consider the following to ensure the safe operation of your stove: 

•  Provision of adequate air to support efficient combustion of the fuel 
•  A well-sealed flue/chimney system, herein after referred to as the "flue system"  
•  The protection of combustible materials in proximity to the stove 

Adequate air provision 

It is essential for the safe and efficient use of your stove that you provide an adequate air supply 
when lighting a fire, especially if there are extraction units such as cooker hoods or clothes 
dryers in the vicinity. Crack the door open a little and allow air to enter. Once the air in the stove 
and the flue stabilize, you can then close the door of the stove. Failure to do so will mean that 
fuel is burned inefficiently, causing smoke and blackening the glass and may also cause smoke 
to come back into the room. 

Installation 

Unpacking and preparing your stove for installation: 

1. Remove your stove from the outer packaging and place on floor. Please inspect stove and 
check that it is not damaged in any way. Never attempt to use a stove that has been damaged. 

2. Remove and check the following contents (spare parts found in ash pan):  

•  Instruction manual 
•  Legs & Screws – 4 sets (M8 x 20mm) 
•  Height adjustment bolts – 4 pc (M8 x 20mm) 
•  Glass clips - 2 pc plus 4 screws (M5 x 6) 
•  Wooden handle – 1 pc 
•  Wooden handle holder – 1 pc 
•  Ash pan & shovel - I pc each 
•  Operating tool - I pc 
•  Spare screws – 2 pc (M5 x 8mm)
