  • Page 23 Fueling instructions for use with ASTM E3053-17 44 Elite High Burn Proced Kindling: Kindling weight in total should be 7.5lbs (±0.4lbs) making sure the weight doesn’t exceed what’s allowed per the standard. Six to eight pieces are to be close to ½’’x ½’’ with a length of 15-17’’. These pieces will be in the middle of the top two rows to help with ignition.
  • Page 24 Fueling instructions for use with ASTM E3053-17 Place the start-up fuel on top of the two kindling pieces in a hatching pattern, using two pieces on each row. The kindling is to be placed on top of the start-up fuel continuing the hatching pattern, using the few smaller pieces in the middle of the top two rows.
  • Page 25 Fueling instructions for use with ASTM E3053-17 When loading, use one of the test pieces to gently level the remaining fuel. Use the by-pass if needed. Place all pieces in a north/south direction with three pieces on the bottom and three on top with little to no gaps between the pieces. The door should be open ≤...
