18.  During the first 12 to 15 fires the special paints and pro-

tective oils used in construction of your stove may give 
off some smoke and odor while they are curing. This 
should disappear after a short period of time and not 
occur again. Persons with lung conditions or owners of  
susceptible domestic pets (such as birds) should take  
prudent precautions. Open windows and doors as 
needed to clear smoke and/or odor. Paint discolor-
ation will occur if the stove is over fired.

19.  This stove has a painted surface which is durable 

but it will not stand rough handling or abuse. When 
installing your stove, use care in handling. 

20. 

CLEAN STOVE FREQUENTLY  as soot, creosote 
and ash may accumulate. Clean exterior with soap 
and warm water when stove is not hot. Do not use 
any acids or scouring soap, as these solvents wear 
and dull the finish. 

21. 

ALERT ALL PERSONS TO THE HAZARDS OF 
HIGH SURFACE TEMPERATURES
 while stove is 
in operation – especially young children. Keep away 
from a hot stove to avoid burns or clothing ignition.  

22. 

NEVER LEAVE SMALL CHILDREN UNSUPER-
VISED WHEN THEY ARE IN THE SAME ROOM 
AS THE STOVE. 
If small children will be in the same 
room as the stove during operation, provide a sturdy 
barrier to keep them at a safe distance from the stove. 

23.  Keep stove area clear and free from all combustible 

materials, gasoline, engine oil, naphtha and other 
flammable vapors and liquids.

24. 

WHILE TENDING THE FIRE ALWAYS WEAR PRO-
TECTIVE CLOTHING
, fire retardant hearth gloves 
and eye protection, to prevent burns.

25. Never operate this stove without ash drawer, ash 

clean out or with the door open except when re-
fueling. Such actions can result in very dangerous 
operating conditions.

26. 

DO NOT OVER FIRE THE STOVE.  Over firing 
will occur if combustion air is uncontrolled as when 
feed door is left open during operation. Such actions 
can result in very dangerous operating conditions. 
While in operation, keep the feed door closed and 
secured at all times except while tending the fire

27.  When adding fuel be careful not to smother the fire. 

Do not build fires against glass and do not load fuel to 
a height or in such a manner that it creates a hazard 
when opening the door.

28. 

NEVER LEAVE THE STOVE UNATTENDED with 
door open. Always close the door after ignition. 

29. 

DO NOT CONNECT TO OR USE IN CONJUNC-
TION WITH ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCT WORK 

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS continued…

UNLESS SPECIFICALLY APPROVED FOR SUCH 
INSTALLATIONS.

30. 

A WOOD-BURNING STOVE MUST NEVER BE 
INSTALLED IN A HALLWAY OR NEAR A STAIR-
CASE
, as it may block egress in the event of a fire.

31. 

DO NOT INSTALL IN A SLEEPING ROOM.

 

DO NOT INSTALL IN AN ALCOVE OR INSIDE A 
FIREPLACE.

32.  Install at least one smoke detector on each floor of 

your home. Detectors should be located away from 
the heating appliance to avoid false alarms. Detectors 
should be located close to sleeping areas.  Follow 
the smoke detectors manufacturer’s placement and 
installation instructions. Maintain smoke detector per 
manufacturer’s instructions. 

33. 

CARBON MONOXIDE (CO) HAZARD. A buildup of 
CO fumes is toxic and can be fatal. Carbon Monoxide 
is a colorless, odorless gas produced during combus-
tion of wood, coal, oil, gas and by other fuel burning 
appliances. It is important to have a proper draft and 
adequate replacement air ventilation so fumes are 
drawn out the chimney. Installed as instructed this 
stove is designed to be as safe as possible yet it is 
recommended to 

install a CO detector. Follow the 

manufacturer’s recommendations for proper instal-
lation and use. It is recommended to be placed at 
table-top level (not near the ceiling) to avoid false 
alarms. Realize that devices other than a stove (i.e. 
motor exhaust) can trigger CO alarms.

 

If alarm sounds:

  •  Recognize the symptoms of CO poisoning (head-

aches, nausea & drowsiness).

  •  Increase ventilation (open windows & doors).
  •  Make sure stove doors and/or lids are closed and 

secured.

  •  Check stove for smoking or puffing (open airflow 

controls).

  •  Check chimney & connector pipe for leaks, block-

age or down-draft conditions.

 

•  Check CO device for false alarm.

34.  Keep power cords, electrical appliances and/or as-

semblies outside of the clearance area shown in this 
manual for combustible materials. 

35.  Consult your municipal building department or fire 

officials about restrictions, permits and installation 
requirements for your area.

36.  For further information on using your stove safely, 

obtain a copy of the National Fire Protection  
Association (NFPA) publication, “Using Coal and 
Wood Stoves Safely” NFPA No. HS-10-1978. Write
