Chimney Installation; (A) General; (B) Importance Of Proper Draft - Appalachian Stove & Fabricators Trailmaster 4N1-XL Installation And Operation Procedures

(B) PEDESTAL: Position on the bottom of the stove
so that it is centered and 2" back from the edge of
the stove bottom. The longest solid panel and the
opening in the bottom of the pedestal are located at
the front of the stove. The pedestal should be
replaced with the "turned out" flange against the
bottom. LEG KIT: There are holes drilled on the
bottom of the stove that will line up the legs properly.
The legs are attached with screws from the bottom of
the stove.
NOTE: The vent opening should be completely
inside the pedestal.
(C) Attach the pedestal using the three (3) drill screws
provided. Drill the holes in the correctly positioned
pedestal. The front left corner (blower side of stove)
will not have a screw. The screws will make their own
holes in the stove bottom.
5. ATTACHING THE STOVE PIPE
Secure the first section of the pipe to the top of the
stove using the "L" bracket, place it behind the stove
pipe so that one leg rests on the stove top and the
other rests against the pipe. This will hold the joint
firmly together. (FIGURE 8)

6. CHIMNEY INSTALLATION

(A) GENERAL

1. The single wall stove pipe used to connect the
stove to the flue, whether masonry or factory-built,
must be a minimum of 24-gauge, blue or black steel.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE A GALVANIZED PIPE.
2. Secure every pipe joint with three or more separate
metal screws to prevent accidental separation.
3. If an elbow is installed, the horizontal section of
the stove pipe should slope 1/4" per foot of run
toward the stove to allow creosote to drip into the
firebox and be burnt.
4. Always install the single wall stove pipe with the
male (crimped end) down to prevent leakage of
creosote or moisture.
5. The pipe is to be a MINIMUM OF 6" inside
diameter.

(B) IMPORTANCE OF PROPER DRAFT

Draft is the force which moves air from the appliance
up through the chimney. The amount of draft in your
chimney depends on the length of the chimney, local
geography, nearby obstructions, and other factors.
Too much draft may cause excessive temperature in
the appliance and may damage the catalytic
combuster. Inadequate draft may cause backpuffing
into the room and "plugging" of the chimney or
catalyst.

ATTACHING THE STOVE PIPE
NOTE: Inadequate draft will cause the appliance to
leak smoke into the room through appliance and
chimney connector joints.
NOTE: An uncontrollable burn or glowing red stove
part of chimney connector indicates excessive draft.
