Regency Hume Freestanding Wood Fire
8
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
4)
After about 45 minutes, when your wood
has begun to burn strongly, adjust your draft
control down to keep the fire at a moderate
level.
WARNING: Never build a roaring fire in
a cold stove. Always warm your stove
up slowly!
5)
Once a bed of coals has been established
on the base of the firebox, you may adjust
the draft control to a low setting to operate
the unit at its most efficient mode.
6)
During the first few fires, keep the combus
-
tion rate at a moderate level and avoid a
large fire. Only after 5 or 6 such fires can
you operate the stove at its maximum
setting, and only after the metal has been
warmed.
7)
For the first few days, the stove will give
off an odour from the paint. This is to be
expected as the high temperature paint
becomes seasoned. Windows and/or doors
should be left open to provide adequate
ventilation while this temporary condition
exists. Burning the stove at a very high
temperature the first few times may damage
the paint. Burn fires at a moderate level the
first few days.
8)
Do not place anything on the stove top
during the curing process. This may result
in damage to your paint finish.

WARNING: To build a fire in ignorance
or to disregard the information con-
tained in this section can cause serious
permanent damage to the unit and void
your warranty!!
AIR SLIDE CONTROL
Both the primary and air wash drafts are control-
led by the control rod located on the right side
of the unit (when facing the unit). To increase
your draft - pull open, and to decrease - push
closed. All units have a secondary draft system
that continually allows combustion air to the
induction ports at the top of the firebox, just
below the flue baffle.

FIRST FIRE
When your installation is completed and in-
spected you are ready for your first fire.
1)
Open control fully.
2)
Open firebox door and build a small fire us
-
ing paper and dry kindling on the firebrick
hearth. Secure door on the firebox and wait
a few minutes for a good updraft in the flue to
establish the fire. (Leaving the door slightly
open will help your fire start more rapidly.)
CAUTION: Never leave unit unattended
if door is left open. This procedure is for
fire start-up only, as unit may overheat
if door is left open for too long.
3)
With the draft still in the fully open position
add two or three seasoned logs to your fire.
Form a trench in the ash bed to allow air to
reach the rear of the firebox prior to closing
the door.
