DOOR / GLASS GASKET AND ASH DRAWER GAS-
KET
A 3/4" (19 mm) spun fiberglass gasket provides the seal
around the fuel door and a 1/8” (3.2 mm) x 1” (25.4 mm)
flat woven gasket glass provides the seal around the
glass. A ½” (13 mm) flat fiberglass gasket provides the
seal around the ash drawer. Should these gaskets be-
come frayed or damaged, they should be replaced with
the same size and type as the original gasket. Contact
your dealer for ordering. Use high temperature silicone
sealer as an adhesive for the fuel door gasket. The
glass and ash drawer gaskets have self-adhesive back-
ing.
WARNING
: THE GASKETS MUST BE KEPT IN GOOD
CONDITION. DO NOT LEAVE THE STOVE BURNING
WITH THE DOOR OR ASH DRAWER OPEN OR AJAR.
THIS WILL CAUSE EXCESSIVE HEAT BUILD UP IN THE
UNIT AND COULD IGNITE SURROUNDING COMBUSTI-
BLES AS WELL AS DAMAGE THE STOVE BY OVERFIR-
ING IT. OVERFIRING IS A CONDITION WHERE EXCES-
SIVE TEMPERATURES ARE REACHED, BEYOND THE
DESIGN CAPABILITIES OF THE STOVE (SUCH DAMAGE
IS NOT COVERED BY THE MANUFACTURER'S WAR-
RANTY).
SERVICING GLASS
CAUTION:
BE CAREFUL NOT TO ABUSE THE DOOR
ASSEMBLY BY STRIKING OR SLAMMING IT. IF THE
DOOR ASSEMBLY OR GLASS IS BROKEN OR DAM-
AGED, THEY MUST BE REPLACED BEFORE HEATER
CAN BE SAFELY OPERATED. USE ONLY COMPO-
NENTS PROVIDED BY THE MANUFACTURER AS
REPLACEMENT PARTS.
Cleaning Glass: Ensure stove is cold prior to cleaning glass.
A commercial glass cleaner designed for stoves is recom-
mended. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
Replacing Glass:
1. Remove door from stove by lifting door up and off
hinge pins: Place the door on a flat protected (towel)
clean flat surface with the inside of the door facing up.
Remove the glass clips (by removing screws holding
clips), then carefully remove broken glass one piece at
a time (protective gloves are recommended).
2. Clean area where the glass with gasket will be in-
stalled.
3. Install new glass with gasket (use only factory 5 mm
glass with glass channel gasket. Do not substitute).
Carefully reinstall glass clips. Be very careful not to
overtighten screws.
4. Reinstall door.
CREOSOTE FORMATION AND NEED FOR REMOVAL
What is Creosote - When wood is burned slowly, it pro-
duces tar and other organic vapors, which combine with
expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapors
condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow-
burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on
the flue lining. When ignited this creosote makes an ex-
tremely hot fire. Also, creosote deposits tend to form in
long runs of venting where gases become too cool prior to
exhausting. Note: Single wall pipe cools rapidly, there-
fore installations using this type of flue are more suscepti-
ble to creosote deposits.
To inhibit the build up of creosote, adjust the primary air
control to a medium-high or high setting for a 10-minute
period each day. Do not attempt to burn out heavy creo-
sote accumulations in this manner. This must be re-
moved from the chimney by scraping or brushing to re-
duce the risk of a chimney fire.
Burn Approved Fuel Only - This stove is approved for
burning dry seasoned natural wood only. Using green
or inadequately seasoned wood may increase creosote
buildup.
Inspection Frequency - The chimney connector and
chimney should be inspected at least twice monthly
during the heating season to determine if a creosote
buildup has occurred. If creosote has accumulated it
should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney fire.
Cleaning - Remove the catalytic combustor and open
the bypass damper prior to having your chimney
cleaned (should be done by a qualified chimney
sweep). See Maintenance Section,
Catalytic Combus-
tor , page 20 for instructions on removing catalytic com-
bustor.
IMPORTANT: Make sure the bypass damper is in
the open position prior to chimney cleaning.
In the event of a chimney fire - Make sure the fuel door
is securely closed. Adjust the primary air control to the
lowest (most closed) setting. Call the fire department im-
mediately. After a chimney fire, the complete chimney
system should be checked by a qualified technician be-
fore further use.
Consult your dealer for suggestions on proper chimney
care. Contact your local municipal or provincial fire author-
ity for information on how to handle a chimney fire. Have a
clearly understood plan for handling a chimney fire.
