Burning Wood Operating Instructions
When installation is complete, close the supply switch and turn the thermostat above room temperature.
Check to make sure the forced draft fan above the fire door is operating when the thermostat is set above room
temperature. The draft fan should be off when thermostat is set below room temperature. The maximum draft is
not to be more than - .05 as damage may result to the furnace when operated as a gravity unit.
The circulating air blower speed is adjusted at the factory to give an adequate temperature rise under most
conditions. However, because of various temperatures that can result from burning wood, the blower speed can
be adjusted by the motor pulley. Under no circumstances should the temperature rise be more than 80°F (27°C).
To start the fire, turn up the thermostat to Maximum setting to turn ON Forced Draft Fan. Confirm the switch on
the draft fan is in the ON position. Place some newspaper crumpled up in the bottom of the firebox on top of the
minimum requirement of 2” of sand , ash or firebrick. Add kindling and light the fire.
When the fire starts add some larger pieces of kindling or wood until you have a good fire. The idea is to ultimately
end up with a good bed of ash and coals which helps to maintain a good controllable fire.
When reloading the firebox there will be a build up of ash and coals from the previous fire. Rake the coals mixed
with ash to the front of the firebox which places the coals at the front. Load in your wood and the fire should light
in a few minutes.
RETURN THERMOSTAT IN MAIN LIVING SPACE TO REGULAR SETTING
By means of slide plate A above the firedoor, you can control the amount of combustion air allowed into the
fire box. The position of slide plate A will vary with heat requirement, as well as size and type of wood being burnt.
Slide plate B should be open when burning wood.
When the firebox gets full of ash (within two inches of door level), some morning, before loading the firebox,
push or rake the coals to the rear of the firebox. Remove the ash from the front of the firebox using only the shovel
supplied for this purpose. When the ashes only are removed from the front, rake the coals from the back to the
front. Throw in your wood and the fire will again be burning in a few minutes. The fire burns best when the ashes
are 3” to 4” below the fire door level.
When opening the firedoor, do it slowly so you don’t pull smoke into the building. It is recommended that a
back up heating system be used during the mild fall and spring temperatures or else build small, hot “quick
burning” fires from larger pieces of kindling. During the daily inspection, the firebox walls should be cleaned with
the scraper to insure any deposits are removed. This will improve heat transfer and operating efficiency of the
furnace. To assist with starting fires, a manual toggle switch is located on the Forced Draft Fan that can turn off
the fan to prevent nuisance airflows when trying to light matches in the firebox. For safe operating procedure,
refer to the “Notice” label on the furnace.
NOTE: Before loading the fire box, turn the thermostat up to insure that the draft fan is on. This provides an
air curtain to avoid smoke roll out during loading and fans the coals to assist the ignition process of your
new fuel. It also helps to promote draft when there is inadequate draft. After the fire is established, set the
thermostat to desired temperature.
NOTES Do not load wood higher than the firebox liner.
