WOODMASTER OUTDOOR FURNACES • OWNER'S MANUAL
Loading the Furnace
Before opening the firebox door, pull the bypass baffle rod out to the first
stop point to vent the furnace. Use caution when opening the fuel door since
fire and high temperatures may be present. When loading your furnace, it is
recommended that you stack your wood lengthwise in two rows as shown
below. This will allow air from the draft fan to circulate properly creating the
optimum burn environment.
Keep your face away and stay as far away as possible from the firebox door area
when opening the door .
Load the back of the furnace first, stacking the wood lengthwise in the fire
box. After the rear is loaded, fill the front of the furnace in the same fashion.
Be mindful of the latch on the door when you are stacking the wood in the
front.
Use extreme care if adding wood when wood or coals are already present . Very hot
gases may be coming out of the firebox door opening.
