    To become sufficiently dry to burn, wood can not be left in wet or damp conditions. The Kimberly™ stove will not operate at the efficiency level for which it was designed unless you burn properly seasoned wood at 20% moisture content or less. We recommend that you purchase and use a moisture meter to be sure your wood is adequately seasoned.

    STARTING & MAINTAINING A FIRE 1. When the installation is complete and it is time to lay a fire in the Kimberly™ wood stove heater, we urge you to “think small”. It is important to start with a small fire to warm the chimney and establish a good draft in the chimney before building a bigger fire inside the combustion chamber.

    (to the right). Make it a habit during the first few days of burning the Kimberly™ wood stove heater to monitor the smoke output at the chimney top, so as to fully understand the operation of the damper/draft control. There should be little to no smoke exiting from the chimney, except for the initial start-up period (15-20 minutes) and at fuel reloading.

    PROTECTING THE GLASS WINDOW 1. Care should be taken to not damage the glass window in the door of the Kimberly™ wood stove heater, such as striking the glass, or closing the door against a protruding fuel load. Caution should be taken to keep the fire burning towards the back of the Kimberly™...

    3. To replace the Neoceram™ glass-ceramic window in the Kimberly™ wood stove heater, first allow the Kimberly™ to cool to a safe handling temperature, so that you will not get burned. Lift the glass door from its hinges and apply a liberal amount of a penetrating catalyst lubricant, such as PB Blaster® to the nuts holding the glass clips in place.

    4. If the hex-head bolts are difficult to loosen, then warm the metal top of the Kimberly™ wood stove heater and try again, using caution so as not to strip the heads or threads of the bolts. If this is not successful in releasing the bolts, then apply a liberal amount of a penetrating catalyst lubricant, such as PB Blaster®.
  • Page 19 10. After a fire has been well established in the Kimberly™ wood stove heater, it should be operated with the damper/draft control in the mostly to fully closed position (to the right). There should be little to no smoke exiting the chimney except during start-up (15-20 minutes) and when reloading fuel.

    4. Do not store flammables anywhere near the Kimberly™ wood stove heater. 5. Do not use the Kimberly ™ wood stove heater if there are combustible gases in the house, such as propane leaks, or volatile fumes from adhesives, paints, or cleaning fluids.

    This may cause over-firing. Over-firing the stove may cause a house fire. If the stove glows red, you are over-firing. 13. Do not modify the Kimberly™ wood stove heater in any way that is not consistent with the manufacturer’s specifications.
