Do not burn anything but cord wood. Other fuels, eg. charcoal, can produce large amounts of carbon
monoxide, a tasteless, odorless gas that can kill. Under no circumstances should you attempt to barbecue in
this heater.
How to Test Your Wood
Add a large piece of wood to the stove when it has a good large bed of coals. It is dry if it is burning on more
than one side within one minute. It is damp if it turns black and lights within three minutes. If it sizzles, hisses
and blackens without igniting in five minutes it is soaked and should not be burned.
Lighting a Fire
Remove the retaining clip on the front of the baffle before lighting for the first time.
1. Move air control lever to the left-most position (maximum firing rate) and open door.
2. Place crumpled newspaper in the centre of the heater and crisscross with several pieces of dry kindling.
Add a few small pieces of dry wood on top.
3. Ignite the paper and leave the door ajar approximately 1/2"(13mm) - 1"(25mm) until the wood kindling is
fully engulfed in flame.
4. After the kindling is fully engulfed add a few small logs. Close door.
5. Begin normal operation after a good coal base exists and wood has charred.
Normal Operation
WARNING: This wood heater has a manufacturer-set minimum low burn rate that must not be altered.
It is against federal regulations to alter this setting or otherwise operate this wood heater in a manner
inconsistent with the operating instructions in this manual.
1. Set air control to a desired setting. If smoke pours down across the glass (waterfall effect) this indicates
you have shut the control down too soon or you are using too low a setting. The wide range control panel
makes finding the desired setting for your application easy. As every home's heating needs vary (ie.
insulation, windows, climate, etc.) the proper setting can only be found by trial and error and should be
noted for future burns.
2. To refuel, adjust air control to high, and give the fire time to brighten. Open the door slowly, this will pre-
vent back puffing.
3. Use wood of different shape, diameter and length (up to 14" (355mm)). Load your wood and try to place
the logs so that the air can flow between them. Always use dry wood.
4. Do not load fuel to a height or in such a manner that would be hazardous when opening the door.
5. For extended or overnight burns, unsplit logs are preferred. Remember to char the wood completely on
maximum setting before adjusting air control for overnight burn.
