This heater is approved for burning coal only. Use of any

other  fuel,  except  for  the  purpose  of  coal  ignition,  is  a

violation of U.S. law.
When and if the chimney pipe or connector reaches 500˚ f.

(maximum temperature), the stove is being over-fired. It is

recommended that you use magnetic thermometers on the

stove and flue connector, to ensure safe operation.
This stove consumes air when it is burning. If your house

is especially tight, It is advisable that a nearby window be

opened slightly while burning the stove.

this 

manual 

is 

manufacturer’s

recommendations. If there is a discrepancy between these

recommendations  and  your  local  code  requirements,  you

must follow local codes.

1.3 CURING PAINT.

During the first few hours of burning, a blue smoke will be

observed  rising  from  the  painted  surfaces  of  the  stove.

This is the paint being cured, and will disappear over time.

Increase  the  amount  of  fresh  air  in  the  room  during  this

initial  break-in  period.  This  may  be  achieved  by  opening

doors or windows.
