  • Page 22: Operation

    Operation Your stove’s performance (including its efficiency, pollutant emission level and service lifetime) depends largely on how it is operated. You, then, are the most important factor affecting performance. Read these operation in- structions carefully. BEFORE PROCEEDING FURTHER, be sure to read the following: SAFETY INFORMATION: Pages 11 through 13.

  • Page 23: Your First Fire

    Operation YOUR FIRST FIRE (continued) There are four control features to your new Blaze King that are instrumental in getting your first fire started. 1) The Thermostat located on the right front corner of the stove. Set the Thermostat on “High”. After a bit you can adjust the thermostat to your comfort zone, but for now, leave it on “High”.

  • Page 24: A Couple Of Tips

    Operation A couple of tips: Always have your next intended load of wood ready when you open the Front Loading door. Doing so will de- crease the amount of time that the Front Loading Door is open, allowing for the Combustor to remain quite hot and also provide a margin of safety by not leaving the Front Loading Door open when going to retrieve wood.

  • Page 25: Maintenance

    Maintenance ASH REMOVAL Ashes may be removed at any time, but must be removed when they approach the level of the door opening. DO NOT remove all ashes from the stove as a wood fire burns best when made on a bed of ashes. The frequency with which you need to empty the ashes depends on the type of fuel being used.

  • Page 26: Catalytic Combustor, Testing, Cleaning

    Maintenance GASKET INSPECTION Inspect the gasket for physical deterioration, missing sections or obvious leakage. The stove front should make a groove in the gasket material - one side of the groove (toward the inside) will often be dark or black, and the other side (toward the outside) should be light or white.

  • Page 27: Catalytic Combustor, Replacement

    Maintenance CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR, REPLACEMENT The catalytic thermometer on top of the stove should read in the active zone after the stove has been in operation for several hours. If the thermometer's indicator needle does not stay above the 1/3 mark in the active zone, even with a hot fire, over a 7-10 day period of regular use, the catalyst may need replacement.

  • Page 28: Fan Assembly

    Maintenance FAN ASSEMBLY Routine lubrication of the fan motor is not required. Periodic cleaning of the fan assembly (including fan blades) with a soft brush and vacuum cleaner will ensure longer life and maximum efficiency for the fan assembly. How- ever, should it become necessary to replace the fan contact your local dealer.
