This furnace is designed to burn natural wood and coal only. Higher efficiencies and lower emissions generally
result when burning air dried seasoned hardwoods, as compared to softwoods or to green or freshly cut hard-
woods.
DO NOT BURN:
(1) Garbage;
(2) Lawn clippings or yard waste
(3) Material containing rubber; including tires;
(4) Materials containing plastic;
(5) Waste petroleum products, paints or paint thinners, or asphalt products;
(6) Materials containing asbestos;
(7) Construction or demolition debris;
(8) Railroad ties or pressure-treated wood;
(9) Manure or animal remains;
(10) Salt water driftwood or other previously salt water saturated materials;
(11) Unseasoned wood, pallets; or
(12) Paper products, cardboard, plywood, or particle board. The prohibition against burning these
materials does not prohibit the use of fire starters made from paper, cardboard, saw dust, wax and
similar substances for the purpose of starting a fire in this furnace.
NOTE: Once the fire is established, turn the thermostat up to call for the temperature that you want. As
long as there is the appropriate amount of wood in the firebox the thermostat will cycle the draft inducer
motor to keep the temperature in the house at the set temperature.
WARNING: Burning these materials may result in release of toxic fumes or render
the furnace ineffective and cause smoke!
CAUTION: Do not turn wood thermostat down or off while the firebox is full. This
will cause the furnace to damper down and smolder, which could cause creosot-
ing of the furnace or chimney pipe.
