OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Fan Operation
The fan is to be operated only with the draft control rod
pulled out at least 1/2"(13mm) from the fully closed
position. The fan is not to be operated when the draft
control rod is in the closed position (pushed in). The fully
closed position is the low burn setting.
The fan unit must not be turned on until a fire has been
burning for at least 30 minutes and the unit is hot
enough. As well, after each fuel loading the fan must be
shut off until 30 minutes has elapsed.
To operate fan automatically, push switch on side of fan
housing to "Auto" and second switch to either "High" or
"Low" for fan speed. The automatic temperature sensor
will engage the blower when the unit is at temperature
and will shut off the blower once the fire has gone out and
the unit has cooled to below a useful heat output range.
To manually operate the fan system, push the first
switch to "Man" and second switch to either "high" or
"Low". This will bypass the sensing device and allow full
control of the fan. Switching from "Auto" to "Manual" or
"High" to "Low" may be done at any time.
Ash Disposal
During constant use, ashes should be removed every
few days. Please take care to prevent the build-up of ash
around the start-up air housing located inside the firebox,
under the loading door lip.
DO NOT ALLOW ASHES TO BUILD UP TO THE
LOADING DOORS.
Only remove ashes when the fire has died down. Even
then, expect to find a few hot embers. Always leave 1 to
2 inches of ash in the bottom of the firebox. This helps
in easier starting and a more uniform burn of your fire.
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight
fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be
placed on a noncombustible floor or on the ground, well
away from all combustible materials, pending final
disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or
otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in
the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly
cooled. Other waste should not be placed in the ash
container.
Some Safety Guidelines
1) Never use gasoline, gasoline type lantern fuels,
kerosene, charcoal lighter fuel, or similar liquids to
start or ‘freshen up’ a fire in your heater. Keep all
such liquids well away from the heater while it is in
use.
2) Keep the door closed during operation and maintain
all seals in good condition.
3) Do not burn large quantities of paper in your in-built
fireplace.
4) If you have smoke detectors, prevent smoke spillage
as this may set off a false alarm.
5) Do not overfire your in-built fireplace. If the in-built
fireplace or its flue baffle begin to glow, you are
overfiring. Stop adding fuel and close the draft
control. Overfiring can cause extensive damage to
your stove including warpage and premature steel
corrosion. Overfiring will void your warranty.
6) Do not permit creosote or soot buildup in the chimney
system. Check and clean chimney at regular
intervals.
7) Your Masport In-built Fireplace can be very hot.
You may be seriously burned if you touch the in-built
fireplace while it is operating. Warn children of the
burn hazard.
8) The in-built fireplace consumes air while operating,
provide adequate ventilation with an air duct or
open a window while the in-built fireplace is in use.
9) Do not use grates, irons or other methods for
supporting fuel. Burn directly on the bricks.
10) Open the draft control fully for 10 to 15 seconds prior
to slowly opening the door when refuelling the fire.
11) Do not connect your unit to any air distribution duct.
12) Your in-built fireplace should burn dry, standard
firewood only. The use of “mill ends” is discouraged
as this fuel can easily overheat your in-built fireplace.
Evidence of excessive overheating will void your
warranty. As well, a large portion of sawmill waste
is chemically treated lumber, which is illegal to burn
in many areas. Chemically treated fire logs also
must not be burned in your in-built fireplace.
