OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS cont.
RELOADING PROCEDURE (with the catalyst temperature in the active zone)
1. Have your next intended load of wood ready before opening the loading door.
2. Turn the thermostat to the highest setting, wait a couple of minutes for the air fl ow to stabilize.
3. Pull the bypass lever towards the front of the stove to the open position. Again wait a couple of minutes for
the air fl ow to stablize.
4. Unlatch the loading door but do not open fully, allow the introduced ambient room air to be introduced to
the fi rebox.
5. Slowly open the loading door and proceed to refi ll the fi rebox. If you experience excessive smoke spillage,
close the door temporarily to allow draft to re-establish.
6. Latch the door, return the bypass to the closed position (towards the rear of the stove)
7. Run the stove on the hightest thermostat setting for 20-30 mins.
8. Adjust the thermostat to the desired comfort level, keep in mind you may not see a large amount of fl ame
activity in the lower thermostat setting, the catalyst temperature gauge will be the indicator that the burn
cycle is continuing.
Should you burn the stove on a very low setting for extended periods of time, you will begin to see creosote
deposits forming on the glass door. To remove these deposits, simple run the stove on
HIGH
for a short time,
approximately 30 minutes. Th
e
HIGH
setting will burn off most of the deposits.
As every pile of wood is diff erent you will learn, over time, which settings are necessary to achieve the optimal
fi re. Th
is will be based on the type of wood you are burning, your home and of course how warm and cozy you
like it inside.
RELOADING PROCEDURE (with the catalyst temperature still in the inactive zone)
Follow the procedure for “LIGHTING THE FIRE” on the previous page.
