Encore Woodburning Stove

Set Up Your Stove
Cast iron stoves are heavy, and it will take two to four
people to move your Encore into position.
Wipe the protective
coating of oil from
the griddle with a
clean dry rag or a
paper towel.
Install the handle
on the griddle.
First, place the
griddle upside
down at the edge
of a flat surface and
assemble the handle as shown.
With the handle pointing 45° from its final position,
tighten the nut as far as possible with the pliers. Move
the handle to its final position while still holding the nut
with the pliers.
Install the Optional Bottom Heat Shield
NOTE:
The Bottom Heat Shield is required in most in-
stallations. Refer to Floor Protection, Page 9, for further
details. The bottom heat shield comes with the ash pan
heat shield.
1. Remove the four 10-24 x 1/2” hex head bolts from
the corners of the ash drop on the stove bottom.
2. Screw the four (4) 1
¹⁄₄
" spacers into the holes from
which you removed the bolts, finger-tight.
3. Align the bottom heat shield against the spacers with
the stepped side toward the rear of the stove.
4. Secure the shield with the four (4) hex head bolts
removed from the stove bottom previously.
5. Tighten securely.
Assembly
Adjust the Leg Levellers
Lift the stove slightly so there is no weight on the leg
while making the adjustment.
Reverse the Flue Collar (If Necessary)
Reverse the flue collar by removing the two (2) screws
that attach it to the back of the stove. Be sure the gas-
ket around the flue collar opening is in position when
you screw the collar back onto the stove.
Install the Optional Ash Door Heat Shield
1. Remove the two (2) Phillips pan head screws from
the ash door.
2. Insert the screws through the ash door heat shield
(from the painted side), place the 5/16” spacers over
the screws, and carefully thread them back into the
original holes. The curved lip should be upward,
under the ashlip of the stove.
3. Tighten securely.

Attach the Primary Air Thermostat Handle
The primary air thermostat handle is the smaller of the
two black handles. Secure the handle to the stub on
the right side of the stove with an 8-32 x 2” slot head
machine screw.
Attach the Damper Handle
Use the 1/4” -20 x 3” screw to attach the damper handle
to the damper stub on the left side.
Assemble the Removable Insert Handle
The white removable insert handle opens and closes the
front doors. Remove after each use so it won’t get hot.
Store it in the handle holder installed behind the right
front leg. Assemble the handle by passing the 86 mm
(3
³⁄₈
") screw through the ceramic shaft and into the bright
metal nub. Tighten carefully until snug.
