ASH DISPOSAL
Ashes should be removed from the stove every few days or when ashes get to 2 to 3 inches deep. Always empty
the stove when it is cold, such as in the morning. Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fi tting
lid. Th
e closed container of ashes should be placed on a non combustible fl oor or on the ground, well away
from all combustible materials, pending fi nal disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise
locally dispersed, they should be retained in the close container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled. Other
waste shall not be placed in this container.

MAINTENANCE
Your wood stove is a high effi
ciency stove and therefore requires little maintenance. It is important to perform
a visual inspection of the stove every time it is emptied in order to insure that no parts have been damaged, in
which case repairs must be performed immediately. Inspect and clean the chimney and connector pipe periodi-
cally for creosote buildup or obstructions.
Never operate the unit without the fi berboard properly installed.
GLASS
• Inspect and clean the glass regularly in order to detect any cracks. If you spot one, turn the stove off imme-
diately. Do not abuse the glass door by striking or slamming shut. Do not use the stove if the glass is broken.
• If the glass on your stove breaks, replace only with the glass supplied from your heater dealer. Never substitute other
materials for the glass.
• To replace the glass, remove the screws retaining the glass mouldings inside the door. Remove the mould-
ings and replace the damaged piece with a new one. Perform the procedure backwards aft er replacing. When
replacing the glass, you should change the glass gasket to make sure you keep it sealed.
• Never wash the glass with a product that may scratch. Use a specialized product, available in the stores where
wood stoves are sold. Th
e glass should be washed only when cold.
GASKETING
It is recommended that you change the door gasket (which makes your stove door air tight) once a year, in or-
der to insure good control over the combustion, maximum effi
ciency and security. To change the door gasket,
simply remove the damaged one. Carefully clean the available gasket groove, apply a high temperature silicone
sold for this purpose, and install the new gasket. You may light up your stove again approximately 24 hours
aft er having completed this operation.
WARNING:
• NEVER OPERATE THE STOVE WITHOUT A GASKET OR WITH A BROKEN ONE. DAMAGE TO THE
STOVE OR EVEN HOUSE FIRE MAY RESULT.
PAINT
Only clean your stove with a dry soft cloth that will not harm the paint fi nish. If the paint becomes scratched or
damaged, it is possible to give your wood stove a brand new look, by repainting it with a 1200° F heat resistant
paint. For this purpose, simply scrub the surface to be repainted with fi ne sand paper, clean it properly, and
apply thin coats (2) of paint successively.
