How to Test Your Wood
Add a large piece of wood to the stove when it has a good large bed of coals. It is dry if it is burning on more
than one side within one minute. It is damp if it turns black and lights within three minutes. If it sizzles, hisses
and blackens without igniting in five minutes it is soaked and should not be burnt

Curing of the Paint Finish
To acheive the best finish, the paint on your stove must be baked on. When burning your stove for the first
2-3 times it is very important that the room be well ventilated. Open all windows and doors. Smoke and fumes
caused by the curing process may cause discomfort to some individuals.
Lighting a fire
WARNING: Never use chemicals or any other volatile liquid to start a fire.
1. Adjust air control to “High” position(all the way to the left) and open door.
2. Place crumpled newspaper in the centre of the heater and criss-cross with several pieces of dry kindling.
Add a few small pieces of dry wood on top.
3. Ignite the paper and leave the door ajar approimately 1/2"(13mm) - 1"(25mm) until the wood kindling is
fully engulfed in flame.
4. After the kindling is fully engulfed add a few small logs. Close door.
5. Begin normal operation after a good coal base exists and wood has charred.
Normal Operation
1. Set air control to a desired setting. If smoke pours down across the glass (waterfall effect) this indicates
you have shut the control down too soon or you are using too low a setting. The wide range control panel
makes finding the desired setting for your application easy. As every home's heating needs vary (ie. insu-
lation, windows, climate, etc.) the proper setting can only be found by trial and error and should be noted
for future burns.
2. To refuel, adjust air control to high, and give the fire time to brighten. Open the door slowly, this will pre-
vent backpuffing.
3. Use wood of different shape, diameter and length (up to 18"(457mm)). Load your wood endwise and try
to place the logs so that the air can flow between them. Always use dry wood.
4. Do not load fuel to a height or in such a manner that would be hazardous when opening the door.
5. For extended or overnight burns, unsplit logs are preferred. Remember to char the wood completely on
maximum setting before adjusting air control for overnight burn.
