Safety
•
Do not operate with fuel loading or ash removal doors open.
•
Do not connect this unit to a chimney flue serving another appliance.
•
Danger: Risk of fire or explosion. Do not burn garbage, gasoline, naphtha, motor oil, or other inappropriate
materials. Do not use chemicals or fluids to start the fire.
•
Warning: Risk of fire. Do not operate with flue draft exceeding .060” water column/14.93 Pascals. Do not
operate with fuel loading and ash removal doors open. Do not store fuel or other combustible materials
within marked installation clearances. Inspect and clean flues and chimney regularly.
•
Caution: Hot surfaces. Keep children away. Do not touch during operation.
•
The heat exchanger, flue pipe, and chimney must be cleaned regularly to remove accumulated creosote
and ash. Ensure that the heat exchanger, flue pipe, and chimney are cleaned at the end of the heating
season to minimize corrosion during the summer months. The appliance, flue pipe, and chimney must be
kept in good condition. These instructions also apply to a draft inducer if used. To prevent flame or smoke
spillage, the slide baffle must be pulled out and the fuel loading door left cracked for 10 seconds prior
to opening door fully. Load fuel carefully or damage may result. For Canadian installations - not to be
connected to a ductwork that is still connected to another furnace.
•
Hot while in operation. Keep children, clothing and furniture away. Contact may cause skin burns.
•
Do not use chemicals or fluids to ignite the fire.
•
Do not leave the furnace unattended when the door is slightly opened.
•
Do not burn garbage, flammable fluid such as gasoline, naphtha or motor oil.
•
Always close the door after the ignition.
•
Consult your municipal building department or fire officials about permits, restrictions and installations
requirements in your area.
•
INSPECT FLUE PIPES, FLUE PIPE JOINTS, AND FLUE PIPE SEALS REGULARLY TO ENSURE THAT SMOKE AND FLUE
GASES ARE NOT DRAWN INTO, AND CIRCULATED BY, THE AIR-CIRCULATION SYSTEM.
•
CAUTION: CLEAN OUT OF THE HEAT EXCHANGER, FLUE PIPE CHIMNEY, AND DRAFT INDUCER, IF USED, IS
ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT AT THE END OF THE HEATING SEASON TO MINIMIZE CORROSION DURING THE SUMMER
MONTHS, CAUSED BY ACCUMULATED ASH.
•
CAUTION: Do not operate furnace with power disconnected from the unit.
