OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR BURNING COAL
ON 1/2-INCH OPENING GRATES
(Optional)
The following instructions are for burning various types
of coal, storage of coal, and the cleaning of the furnace.
Some coal is oil-treated at the mine. Some users have
indicated that it tends to make the coal difficult to start.
Burning coal requires some patience and a regular
procedure. With improper tending, a coal fire can go out
in a short time. Once the fire starts to go out, it is almost
impossible to reverse.
After a coal fire goes out, the coal must be removed
from furnace. Then the starting process can be
repeated.
Our coal burning instructions are general, as coal
comes in various sizes and types. Anthracite coal is
most recommended as it burns with little smoke when
burning properly.
CAUTION
:
Burn Anthracite, Bituminous, or Lignite
coals only. DO NOT BURN Petroleum,
Coke, or Cannel Coals.
