Cracked/broken door glass, makes the installation unsafe. Do not operate the fire with cracked glass. • Do not use the fire if there is a malfunction, a suspicion of breakage or unusual noises. Contact your nearest Woodsman dealer or Harris Home Fires.
Page 3: Before You Install
The installation of any solid fuel burner requires a Building Consent prior to installation commencing. We recommend the installation of a Woodsman solid fuel burner or flue system be undertaken by the holder of a current SFAIT (Solid Fuel Appliance Installa- tion Technician) qualification issued by the NZHHA (NZ Home Heating Association Inc.).

Page 5 Ceiling plate requirements The Serene has a minimum ceiling plate size of 400mm x 400mm Due to the Serene’s low rear clearance, the ceiling plate may be in close proximity to the wall. This may interfere with ceiling coving or mouldings where the wall and ceilings meet if.
Page 6: Ceiling Heights
Ceiling Heights All Woodsman free standing fires have been tested and approved to ASNZ 2918:2001 App B with a ceiling height of 2.4m and with the factory flue shield fitted in the below configurations. In some cases, the top of the flue shield terminates within 600mm of the ceiling height (refer to ASNZ 2918:2001 4.5.2) but all ceiling temperatures did not exceed the allowable limit in these cases and are therefore able to be installed.
Page 7: Minimum Flue Height
Your Woodsman appliance should be installed with a HeatSaver Flue System. A HeatSaver Flue System is available from all authorised Woodsman dealers throughout New Zealand. Use of a flue system other than a genuine HeatSaver Flue System may affect the safety of the installation, and may affect your warranty.

Load intermediate load 2 (4 pieces) After approximately 30 minutes (or when the fire has burned down to red embers with minimal yellow flame), the fire is ready for the next load.
Page 15: Reloading Procedure
Appropriate Firewood Your Woodsman wood fire is designed to burn logs from trees which would typically be sourced from a reputable wood merchant as firewood. The most common species is radiata pine, which is a soft wood. Other common species of wood like macrocarpa are also appropriate to use and some hard woods like eucalyptus (bluegum) can also be used in conjunction with softwood.
Page 16: Creosote Formation
Creosote Formation A small intense fire is preferable to a large smouldering one, to reduce the amount of creosote. When wood is burned slowly it produces tar and other organic vapours, which combine with expelled vapour to form creosote. These creosote vapours condense in the relatively cool flue of a slow burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the flue.
Page 17 Cleaning the Outside of the Fire Woodsman fires are finished in a high temperature paint. Only use a damp cloth (no • chemicals) when cleaning the outside of the fire. If any scratches occur, you can easily touch up the fire with an aerosol can of matching paint.
Page 18 Fire Safe Drawer (Not Available in Wood Box model) Your Serene comes with a Fire Safe Drawer located in the pedestal of the fire. Its purpose is to provide a convenient place to store kindling wood, matches, newspaper and natural fire lighters. Having a place to store these items can make it very quick and easy to light your fire and reduce clutter around the fire.
Page 19 (Not Available in Wood Box model) Your Serene comes with a No Mess Ash Scoop located on top of the Fire Safe Drawer, in the pedestal of the fire. Its purpose is to provide a clean and simple way to remove ashes from the fire.
