Operation

Read the following section carefully before building
a fire in your fireplace insert..
Fuel
This stove is designed to burn natural wood ONLY.
Wood that has been air-dried for a period of 6 to 14
months will provide the cleanest most efficient heat.
Frequent use of green or inadequately seasoned
wood is conducive to creosote accumulation and
generally poor performance.
DO NOT BURN...
•Coal •Treated or painted wood
•Garbage •Chemical Chimney cleaners
•Cardboard •Colored paper
•Solvents •Any synthetic fuel or logs
The burning of any of these materials can result in
the release of toxic fumes. NEVER USE GASOLINE,
GASOLINE-TYPE LANTERN FUEL, KEROSENE, CHAR-
COAL LIGHTER FLUID, OR SIMILAR LIQUIDS TO START
OR "FRESHEN-UP" THE FIRE. Always keep such liq-
uids away from the heater at all times.
WARNING
NEVER ALLOW THE FIRE TO REST
DIRECTLY ON THE GLASS. THE
LOGS SHOULD ALWAYS BE SPACED
AT LEAST ONE INCH FROM THE
GLASS TO ALLOW FOR PROPER AIR
FLOW WITHIN THE STOVE.
OPERATE THIS FIREPLACE INSERT
ONLY WITH THE FRONT DOORS
FULLY CLOSED. PARTIALLY OPENED
DOORS MAY RESULT IN OVERFIRING.
ALSO, IF DOORS ARE LEFT PARTLY
OPEN, GAS AND FLAME MAY BE
DRAWN OUT OF THE STOVE OPEN-
ING, CREATING RISKS FROM BOTH
FIRE AND SMOKE.

Air Control Settings
A single lever regulates the Primary Air flow that
controls the intensity of the fire and consequent heat
output and burn time. This lever is located within the
slot on the upper right front of the fireplace insert.
When first starting or reviving the fire, the
control lever should be set at the far right position
to allow the maximum amount of air into the stove.
See fig.15. After the fire is well-established, the lever
should be set at position to moderate incoming air to
maintain the desired long term heat output and/or
burn time.
In general, the more air made available to the
fuel will result in the hottest fire intensity and the
fastest fuel consumption. Alternatively, the less air
made available to the firebox will result in low heat
output and slow fuel consumption.
