designed to ignite the combustion gases (smoke) given off by
the burning wood and increases the ef
fi ciency of the appli-
ance and reduces chimney emissions.
Smoke given off by burning fuel consists of very small organic
liquid droplets. If these droplets condense, they form a sticky
tar-like substance called creosote. When operated properly,
this appliance is designed to burn these droplets. Burning
these droplets releases heat that would otherwise be lost up
the chimney as smoke. Following the instructions below will
help you operate your appliance properly to maximize the ap-
pliance’s performance. Actual performance is dependent on
chimney height, weather, log size, wood species, and mois-
ture content. Some experimentation will initially be required to
fi nd that spot where your appliance performs best. The follow-
ing will give you a starting point to fi nd your optimum settings.
When fi rst loading fuel, set the door air inlet control at the wide
open position for at least 15–20 minutes. When the appliance
is working properly, you should be able to observe secondary
combustion
fl ames above the fuel pieces in front of the sec-
ondary air tubes at the top of the fi rebox. These secondary
fl ames should continue to burn after the primary air inlet is
reset from wide open to the desired operating setting. If the
fl ames do not continue to burn, open the air control to re-es-
tablish the secondary fl ames then slowly reset the air control
to the desired setting. Initially it may take several attempts to
fi gure your appliance out. But once you fi nd the ef fi cient oper-
ating spot and the correct mix of procedures to get there, only
minor adjustments will be necessary.
The best indicator of a properly operating appliance is to look
for smoke coming out of the chimney. You may see steam
emissions that will quickly dissipate. Smoke will thin but con-
tinue to drift without totally disappearing. If you do detect
smoke emissions, open the air control a little bit, let the ap-
pliance adjust for 10–15 minutes and re-check your chimney.
Remember – visible smoke represents lost heat.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTIONS: HOUSE FIRE HAZARDS
•
DO NOT STORE WOOD ON FLOOR PROTECTOR,
UNDERNEATH STOVEPIPE(S) IF APPLICABLE,
OR ANYWHERE WITHIN CLEARANCES TO
COMBUSTIBLE SURFACES SPECIFIED FOR THIS
APPLIANCE.
• NEVER OPERATE WITH SECONDARY TUBES,
FIBER BOARD, OR INSULATION REMOVED.
OPERATING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
•
NEVER OVERFIRE THIS APPLIANCE BY BUILDING
EXCESSIVELY HOT FIRES AS A HOUSE/BUILDING
FIRE MAY RESULT. YOU ARE OVERFIRING THE
APPLIANCE IF IT BEGINS TO GLOW OR TURN
RED.
• NEVER BUILD EXCESSIVELY LARGE FIRES IN
THIS TYPE OF APPLIANCE AS DAMAGE TO THE
FIREBOX OR SMOKE LEAKAGE MAY RESULT.
• DO NOT BUILD FIRE TOO CLOSE TO GLASS.
• HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. KEEP CHILDREN,
CLOTHING, AND FURNITURE AWAY. CONTACT
MAY CAUSE SKINS BURNS. DO NOT TOUCH THE
APPLIANCE UNTIL IT HAS COOLED.
• PROVIDE ADEQUATE AIR FOR COMBUSTION
TO THE ROOM WHERE THE APPLIANCE IS
INSTALLED.
• INSPECT CHIMNEY LINER EVERY 60 DAYS.
REPLACE LINER IMMEDIATELY IF IT IS RUSTING
OR LEAKING SMOKE INTO THE ROOM.
WARNING: EXPLOSION HAZARD
•
NEVER USE CHEMICALS, GASOLINE, GASOLINE-
TYPE LANTERN FUEL, KEROSENE, CHARCOAL
LIGHTER FLUID, OR SIMILAR FLAMMABLE
LIQUIDS TO START OR “FRESHEN UP” A FIRE IN
THE APPLIANCE.
• KEEP ALL FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS, ESPECIALLY
GASOLINE, OUT OF THE VICINITY OF THE
APPLIANCE - WHETHER IN USE OR IN STORAGE.
This appliance is designed to burn
WOOD FUEL ONLY!
Hardwood, 17” to 19”, should be split and air dried (seasoned)
for 6 months to obtain maximum burning ef
fi ciency. Wood
should be stored in a dry, well ventilated area.
Burning fuels other than intended, chemicals, or waste in this
appliance could result in damages to the heater or result in
bodily injury. It will also void any warranty on the appliance.
NOTICE: USE SOLID WOOD FUEL ONLY! DO
NOT BURN GARBAGE , OR FLAMMABLE
FLUIDS. DO NOT USE COAL. THIS APPLIANCE
IS NOT DESIGNED TO ACCOMMODATE THE
AIR FLOW (DRAFT) REQUIRED TO PROPERLY
BURN COAL OR COAL PRODUCTS. DO NOT
ELEVATE THE FIRE USING GRATES OR IRONS.
BUILD THE FIRE DIRECTLY ON THE FIREBRICK.
OPTIMAL FUEL CONSUMPTION
This appliance is designed to get the most ef fi cient transfer of
heat energy from the wood fuel and radiate it into your living
environment. The
fi re box introduces combustion air through
three sources; (1) Immediately beneath the door opening be-
low the window is a Lower Primary Air Ori
fi ce (LPAO), (2) The
door air inlet control brings air into the fi rebox and controls
the rate of burn (and the amount of heat the appliance radi-
ates), (3) The secondary air tubes at the top of the
fi rebox are
