Overfiring may lead to damage to plated surfaces. If you are uncertain of over-firing conditions, we suggest placing a stove thermometer (e.g., Rutland® Model 710) directly over the door on the stove top - temperatures exceeding 800° are generally considered over-firing and will void the warranty. © Travis Industries 1/12/2023 - 1574 Endeavor NexGen-Hybrid...

Page 22: Before Starting A Fire
This should start the chimney drafting (this eliminates "cold air blockage"). Use plenty of kindling to ensure the stove reaches a proper temperature. Once the kindling is burning rapidly, place a few larger pieces of wood onto the fire. © Travis Industries 1/12/2023 - 1574 Endeavor NexGen-Hybrid...
Page 23: Adjusting The Burn Rate
The air control may become hot during operation - use gloves or a tool to prevent burns. The air control may take several minutes to influence the burn rate. When making adjustments, you may wish to let the stove burn for 10 minutes to gauge performance. © Travis Industries 1/12/2023 - 1574 Endeavor NexGen-Hybrid...

4. In the morning, the stove should still be hot, with embers in the coal bed. Stir the coals and load small pieces of wood to re-ignite the fire, if desired. Differences in chimney height and draft may lower overall burn times. © Travis Industries 1/12/2023 - 1574 Endeavor NexGen-Hybrid...
Page 27: Normal Operating Sounds
When burned wet wood must release water stored within the wood. This cools the fire, creates creosote, and hampers a complete burn. Ask any experienced wood burner and he or she will agree: dry wood is crucial to good performance. © Travis Industries 1/12/2023 - 1574 Endeavor NexGen-Hybrid...
