Maintaining & Servicing Your Appliance
A. Quick Reference Maintenance Guide
BAFFLE & BLANKET PLACEMENT
Baffle and blanket placement is critical to heat out-
put, efficiency and overall life of the unit. Make sure
the baffle is pushed all of the way to the back of the
firebox and the blanket is laying flat.
CHIMNEY & CAP INSPECTION
The chimney and chimney
cap must be inspected for
soot and creosote during
the burn season. This will
prevent pipe blockage, poor
draft, and chimney fires.
Always burn dry wood to
help prevent cap blockage
and creosote build-up.
Start the first inspection of your unit after
the first 2 months of use, or if performance
changes, and adjust your schedule accord-
ingly.

INSPECT FIREBRICKS & ASH COVER
(AFTER EACH CLEANING)
Step Top Models Only
Firebrick is designed to protect your firebox. Replace
firebricks that are crumbling, cracked or broken. If
you have an optional ash door, check to make sure
the door is closing properly.
DOOR & LATCH CHECK
Check the door latch for proper adjustment. This
is very important especially after the door rope has
formed to the stove face.
Maintenance is required for safe opera-
tion and must be performed to maintain
your warranty.

Keeping the door and glass
gasket in good shape will
maintain good burn times on
a low burn setting.
Check the glass frame for
loose screws to prevent air
leakage.
