Operating Instructions 

A. Appliance Controls

 

Two controls regulate the performance of the Encore

®

 Model 

2040-CAT-C: a 

primary air control 

supplies oxygen for the 

fire, and a 

damper

 directs air flow within the stove to activate 

and deactivate the combustion system, Figure 2.1.

Symbols on the stove are reminders of the correct directions 

for using the controls. The words ‘Left’ and ‘Right’ in these 

directions are 

facing the stove

.

Figure  2.1

  -  The  Encore

®

  Model  2040-CAT-C  controls  are 

conveniently located and easy to operate.

A Damper Directs Air Flow Within the Stove

The 

damper handle

 on the left side of the stove operates 

the damper to direct air flow within the stove.

The damper is 

open

 when the handle points to the 

rear

enabling smoke to pass directly into the chimney. The damper 

must be open when starting or reviving a fire, and whenever 

the griddle or doors are opened.
The damper is 

closed

 when the handle points 

down.

 Smoke 

travels through the secondary combustion system where 

it can be further burned, before passing up the chimney, 

Figure 2.3.

The damper should always be either fully open or fully 

closed. There are no intermediate positions. When 

closing the damper, be sure to pull firmly enough to snap 

the handle into the locked position.

This wood heater has a manufactured-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 operating 

instructions in this manual.

WARNING

!

A Single Air Control Regulates Heat Output and Burn Time

The 

primary air control lever

, on the right of the stove, 

controls the amount of incoming air for starting, maintaining, 

and reviving a fire.
Once the air control is manually set, a bi-metallic thermostat 

automatically maintains the heat output at a constant level 

for a more even heat over the life of the burn.

More air entering the stove makes the fire burn hotter and 

faster, while less air prolongs the burn at a lower heat output 

level.

For the greatest air supply and maximum heat output (but 

the shortest burn time), move the lever toward the front of 

the stove. For a fire that will last longer with less heat, move 

the lever toward the rear of the unit, Figure 2.2.
