Blower Operation
The blower will turn on once the stove is up to temperature. This is typically 15 to 30 minutes after
starting the fire. Follow the directions below to alter the blower speed.
The blower rheostat dial may look different. It does operate in the same fashion.
OFF
Turn the dial all the
way counter-clockwise
until it clicks off.
HIGH
The high position is all the
way counter-clockwise,
without clicking off.
LOW
Turn the dial all
the way
clockwise.
The blower may be used to affect heat output (i.e.: to reduce heat output, turn the blower down).
Route the power cord in a location where it will not come in contact with the appliance or become hot.
Re-Loading the Stove
Follow the directions below to minimize smoke spillage while re-loading the stove.
1
Open the air control all the way (push it in). Open the bypass (pull it out).
2
Open the door slightly. Let airflow inside the firebox stabilize before opening the doors fully.
3
Load wood onto the fire.
Overnight Burn
Follow the steps below to achieve an overnight burn.
1
Move the air control to high burn and let the stove become hot (burn for approximately 15 minutes).
2
Load as much wood as possible. Use large pieces if possible.
3
Let the stove burn on high for 15 minutes to keep the stove hot, then turn the air control to low.
4
In the morning the stove should still be hot, with embers in the coal bed. Stir the coals and load
small pieces of wood to re-ignite the fire, if desired.
Differences in chimney height and draft may lower overall burn times.
Normal Operating Sounds
Creaks and Clicks:
The steel may creak or click when the stove heats up
and cools down - this is normal.
Blower Sounds:
The blower will make a slight "humm" as it
pushes air through the stove.
