SAFETY NOTICE
•
If this stove is not properly installed, a house fire may result. To reduce the risk of fire, follow the installation
instructions.
•
Consult your municipal building department or fire officials about permits, restrictions and installations
requirements in your area.
• Use smoke detectors in the room where your stove is installed.
• Keep furniture and drapes well away from the stove.
•
Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to start or
“freshen up” a fire in this heater. Keep all such liquids well away from the heater while it is in use.
•
In the event of a chimney fire, push the air control full closed to deprive the fire of oxygen. Call the fire
department.
• Do not connect to any air distribution duct or system.
• A source of fresh air into the room or space heated shall be provided when required.
POSITIONING THE STOVE
It is very important to position the wood stove as close as possible to the chimney, and in an area that will favour
the most efficient heat distribution possible throughout the house. The stove must therefore be installed in the
room where the most time is spent, and in the most spacious room possible. Wood stoves produce radiating
heat, that is the heat we feel when we are close to a wood stove. A wood stove also functions by convection.
Convection is the displacement of hot air accelerated upwards and its replacement with cooler air. If necessary,
the hot air distribution from the stove may be facilitated by the installation of a blower.
The wood stove must not be hooked up to a hot air distribution system since an excessive accumulation of heat
may occur.
A wood stove must never be installed in a hallway or near a staircase, since it may block the way in case of fire
or fail to respect required clearances.

HOW TO OPEN THE TOP LID
CAUTION! DO NOT OPEN OR CLOSE THE TOP WHEN THE HEATER IS HOT!
To open, grasp the top at the front or on each corner and lift all the way up
until the support rod stops the motion. Then gently lower the top allowing the
support rod to settles in the cup, holding the top open.
To Close, lift the top until the support rod is out of the cup. Pull the rod forward
and lower the lid closed.
THERMODISC KIT FOR B36 BLOWER - OPTIONAL
Wish your blower would turn ON and OFF as the heater gets warm and cold?
It can with this optional kit from U.S. Stove. It connects in line with your power
supply cord and mounts to the back of the heater. When the snap disc
reaches 120 degrees, the blower automatically turns ON and turns itself OFF
if it reaches 90 degrees. See your Dealer for details or call U.S. Stove directly.
