Clean all the fingerprints and oils from plated surfaces
BEFORE firing the appliance for the first time. If not cleaned
properly before lighting your first fire, the oils can cause
permanent markings on the plating.
After the plating is cured, the oils will not affect the finish
and little maintenance is required. Wipe clean as needed.
6. Inspect Firebrick
• Frequency: After each ash removal
• By: Homeowner
Replace the firebrick if they become crumbly and/or if there
is a 1/4 inch (6.35mm) gap between the bricks.
The firebox is lined with firebrick, which has exceptional
insulating properties. Do not use a grate; simply build a fire on
the firebox floor. Do not operate appliance without firebrick.
1. After the coals have completely cooled, remove all old
brick and ash from unit and vacuum firebox.
2. Remove new brick set from box and lay out to the
diagram shown in the instructions that come with the
brick set or refer to the diagram on the service parts list
at the end of this manual.
3. Lay bottom bricks in unit.
4. Install rear bricks on the top of the bottom bricks. Slide
top of bricks under clip on back of firebox wall and push
bottom of bricks back.
5. Install side bricks. Slide top of brick under clips on side
of firebox and push the bottom of the brick until it is flush
with the side of the unit.
D. Correct Baffle & Blanket Placement
Fire Risk.
Firebox damage due to improper baffle
placement is not covered by warranty. Operate
the wood burning appliance with the baffle in
the correct position only.
Not doing so could result in:
• Reduced efficiency
• Overheating the chimney
• Overheating the rear of the firebox
• Poor performance
Ensure correct baffle placement and replace baffle
components if damaged or missing.
The baffle boards are FRAGILE. Use extreme caution
when loading firewood to prevent:
• Cracking, breaking or damaging the baffle boards
DO NOT operate the appliance without baffle boards
NOTE: A missing, damaged or improperly positioned
baffle is dangerous and may cause damage and poor
efficiency. It will also void your warranty.
