SITE PREPARATION
THE GOALS TO GOOD SITE PREPARATION ARE:
To place the FireBox for easy access.
To sort the waste wood pile.
To organize the inflow of new wood waste.
When locating the FireBox;
1) Consider access for your truck and trailer to load and unload the FireBox. Ensure
there is enough room to maneuver your truck and trailer.
2) Consider where the waste piles will be located. We generally recommend two
waste piles (explained in next section).
3) Consider the predominate wind direction. Hot embers
will be
escaping from the
FireBox during all burning operations.
4) Consider clearances to empty the FireBox. The unit must raised and towed
forward
until all the ash remains behind. When emptying, the tires can not come in contact
with the hot embers or they will be damaged. In most cases cold ash can be reapplied
to the land. Check your local ordinances.
5) Once the box is in position, it is important to place dirt around the inside bottom of
the FireBox where the thermo ceramic panels meet the ground to
“
seal
”
the bottom.
This will prevent smoke and heat from escaping. Pay particular attention to the seal
between the tires and firebox and between the front wall and engine bay.
DANGER:
This machine DOES NOT prevent hot embers from escaping.
This machine is designed primarily as a pollution control device to reduce
the smoke generated from burning clean wood waste.
DANGER:
Never dig a pit in the center of the FireBox. This will allow high level
heat to destroy the bottom of the FireBox, voiding the warranty.
