Summarization of Contents

Safety and Maintenance
Maintenance Checks
Check parts for damage like cracks, excessive corrosion, burned out sections, and warping.
Creosote
Formation and Need for Removal
Creosote forms from wood vapors in cool chimneys and needs regular removal to prevent fires.
Chimney Fires
Excessive creosote buildup can cause a chimney fire, resulting in an extremely hot fire.
Avoiding a Chimney Fire
Keep chimney clear of creosote and burn only clean, well-seasoned wood.
If You Suspect a Chimney Fire
Signs include a roaring sound, vibration, and flames shooting from the chimney top.
In Case of a Chimney Fire
Close air inlets, evacuate home, and call the fire department immediately.
Installation
Clearances
Minimum clearances to combustibles for single wall connector and connector with shield.
Floor Protector
Stove may be installed on combustible floors with a 6mm non-combustible board.
Chimney and Connector
Installation Procedure
Install components per manufacturer's requirements and local codes.
Combustion Air
Outside air supply
For mobile homes or optional for residential. Draws outside air through the floor.
Room air supply
Stove draws air from the room through an opening in the ash box enclosure.
Operation
Wood Selection
Burn natural wood, preferably air-dried seasoned hardwoods for higher efficiency.
How to Test Your Wood
Test wood dryness by observing its burning behavior within minutes.
Lighting for the First Time
Initial fires help cure paint finish. Ensure room is well ventilated.
Normal Operation
Set air control for desired heat. Monitor smoke for proper draft and combustion.
Restarting After Extended or Overnight Burns
Rake embers, add logs, adjust air control to high to restart the fire.
Proper Draft
Draft ensures airflow up the chimney; inadequate draft causes backpuffing.
Ash Removal
Remove ashes when 76-102mm deep, leaving a 25mm ash bed. Includes chute and cleanout system.
Disposal of Ashes
Place ashes in a metal container with a lid, outside, away from combustibles.
Baffle Removal
Removal
Remove retaining pin, lift baffle, and tilt sideways to remove from the supply tube.
Troubleshooting
Glass is Dirty
Caused by wet wood, early air control reduction, low draft, or gasket leaks.
Excessive Creosote Buildup
Refer to causes for dirty glass; indicates potential chimney fire risk.
Low Heat Output
Caused by wet wood, small fire, or low draft. Use dry wood and larger fires.
Won't Burn Overnight
Caused by high air control, insufficient wood, high draft, or poor wood quality.
Wood Won't Burn
Caused by blocked combustion air or low draft. Check air supply and chimney.
