Over-firing may lead to damage of 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 8/2/2023 - 1511 Liberty...

Page 27: Hints For Burning
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. Wood Cutting and Storage © Travis Industries 8/2/2023 - 1511 Liberty...
