1. Follow L-vent chimney manufacturer’s instructions.
2. Position the stove, adhering to the clearance in Fig 1 & 2. Mark the center of the

hole where the pipe is to pierce the masonry chimney.

3. It will be necessary to cut out the masonry around the location of the pipe center

mark. Cut a 101.6 mm (4 in) diameter hole for 76.2 mm (3 in) pipe and 127 mm
(5 in) diameter hole for 101.6 mm (4 in) pipe.

4. Measure and build chimney top plate. Cut out hole for chimney pipe and if used

for the outside air pipe.

5. Install the tee on the bottom of the vertical pipe system and lower it down the

chimney until the center branch of the tee is level with the center of the hole
in masonry as shown in fig 12.

6. Install and seal the top plate from step 3 with flexible waterproof sealant. Slip

the storm collar over the pipe and while holding the pipe at the proper eleva-
tion, affix the collar with a minimum of three 6.35 mm (1/4 in) stainless steel
metal screws. Seal all joints and seams around the collar.

7. Connect the horizontal pipe by pushing it through the hole in the masonry and

lining it up with the branch in the tee. Push the pipe into the tee while twisting it
to lock the tee.

8. If needed, once the horizontal pipe is in place, the space between the pipe and

masonry may be filled with high temperature grout.

9. Install the trim collar. An adjustable pipe length and adaptor may be needed to

align and complete the connection to the stove.

OpERATION: USINg CORRECT FUEL

This stove is designated for burning pelletized wood fuel only. Pellet of 6.35 mm (1/4
in) or 21.17 mm (5/6 in) in diameter and approximately 25.4 mm (1 in) long shall be
used. Longer or thicker pellets sometime bridge the auger flights, which prevents
proper pellet feed.
Burning wood in forms other than pellets is not permitted. It will violate the building
codes for which the stove has been approved and will void all warranties.
This stove feed pellets at preset rates, adding fuel by hand will not increase heat
output but may seriously impair the stove performance by generating considerable
smoke.
Do not burn wet pellets.
The stove performance depends heavily on the quality of your pellet fuel. Avoid the
use of pellet which is excess fines, with binder and high ash content.
