WARNING! 

 

 

  Make sure you read this manual and follow the recommendations contained in it to have 

the joy of operating your furnace for years to come. 

 Improper use and/or installation 

may void warranties.

  Always follow local code requirements and seek the help of 

qualified craftsmen when installing the furnace or systems associated with your furnace.   

 

  Do not operate this equipment for other than its intended purpose nor other than in 

accordance with the instructions contained in this manual and all other instructions 
accompanying the furnace.  

Do not modify the furnace in any manner! Any 

modification without express written consent of manufacturer will void warranty.

  

 

  For furnaces covered by this instruction book, it is important to observe safety precautions 

to protect yourself from possible injury.  Among the many considerations, you are advised 
to:  

 

  Observe all safety stickers on the furnace.  

 

  This furnace must be wired by a qualified electrician in accordance with local and/or 

National Electric Codes and must have a power ground.  

 

  Never use any type of petroleum product, petroleum based product, charcoal starter, 

lighter fluid, lantern fuel, kerosene or any other flammable accelerant to start your furnace. 

  

  KEEP ALL SUCH LIQUIDS WELL AWAY FROM FURNACE WHEN IN USE 

 

  Keep antifreeze, which is flammable, well away from the furnace.   

 

  The use of treated wood (painted, treated, etc) and any other salvaged material that can 

emit toxic gases into the environment and may be corrosive toward the components of the 
appliance is NOT ALLOWED and eliminates the rights of the warranty. 

 

  DO NOT BURN GARBAGE, HOUSEHOLD WASTE OR YARD WASTE IN THE 

FURNACE.  In most areas, this is illegal.  The furnace is designed to burn seasoned 
cordwood and coal.  

Burning non-approved materials can reduce the life of the 

furnace and will void your warranty.

 

 

  Open-loading door – when opening the door, pause momentarily between the first latch 

and the safety latch to allow any combustion gases to burn off. 

 

  Earth Manufacturing strongly recommends using a spark arrestor with your furnace. 

 

  DO NOT OPERATE THE FURNACE WITH THE DOOR OPEN.  Always latch the doors 

securely.  If the door is open for any extended period of time, it will cause over-firing of the 
fire. Always remember to keep your hinges oiled. 

 

  Always use proper care when installing, operating and maintaining the furnace. 

 

  Always wear protective gloves and glasses and be aware that loose or hanging clothing 

can catch fire!
