General Rules
Rules for the Safe Installation and Operation of Your
Furnace...
Check local codes, the installation must comply with strict
conformance in regard to clearances.
The Furnace must be installed on a noncombustible floor.
Connect the furnace to tile lined inside masonry chimney or
approved insulated all fuel prefabricated chimney only.
Keep smoke pipe connection as short as possible, using a
minimum 24 gauge pipe with a minimum 1/2" per foot rise
from the flue collar to the chimney opening.
Be sure there is a sufficient supply of combustion
air to the area where the furnace is to be located.
Do not over draft the furnace! It is designed to operate at
.04 to .06 inches of water column and must be set with a
draft gauge to maintain a steady draft.
Do not use flammable liquids for starting a fire.
Do not store fuel or combustibles near the furnace. Some
areas of the furnace are hot and could cause an explosion
and possible bodily or property damage.
Store all ashes in a metal container with a tight sealing lid
and allow ashes to cool before disposing of them, possibly
a week.
Familiarize yourself with the furnace's solid fuel burning
characteristics before leaving unit unattended for long pe-
riods of time.
The loading door and ash door must be tightly closed dur-
ing furnace operation to insure safety and efficiency.
CAUTION -
The furnace has hot surfaces. Keep Children Away.
Do not touch during operation.
The furnace is designed to burn air dried wood and coal at
a predetermined firing rate. Over firing could result in dam-
age to the heat exchanger and cause dangerous opera-
tion. Over firing occurs when the ash door is left open
during operation or a highly volatile fuel, such as large
amounts of small kindling, is used. Note: This action voids
all warranty.
Follow a regular service and maintenance schedule of the
furnace and chimney for efficient and safe operation.
Do not leave the ash door open when the fire is burning.
Do not let ashes build up closer than 2" to the grate.
With new steel, there is a small amount of oil or dirt on the
metal. You may smell an odor. This is normal during the
first operation. You should assemble the furnace out of
doors and build a small fire in it to "burn off" this dirt and
oil before installing the unit.
During the first few fires, heat may slightly warp
the front and back panels. This is normal and will
not hamper your unit's operation.
DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE SERV-
ING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.
BURN WOOD OR COAL ONLY IN MODEL 24AF. DO NOT
MIX OTHER THAN THE USE OF WOOD TO START A COAL
FIRE.
DANGER - Risk of Fire or Explosion: Do not burn gar-
bage, gasoline, drain oil or other flammable liquids.
WARNING - Risk of Fire:
Do not operate with flue draft exceeding 6 inches
water column.
Do not operate with fuel loading or ash removal
doors open.
Do not store fuel or other combustible material
within marked installation clearances.
Inspect and clean flues and chimney regularly.
In the event of a chimney fire call the fire depart-
ment, then be sure the furnace doors are closed
tightly and the power to the unit is turned off.
This Furnace Must Be Installed By A Qualified Installer.
