FREE-STANDING MODELS (See page 11 for Fireplace Insert models) UNPACKING After removal of the shipping carton, open the door and take out all loose parts except the polystyrene packers above the top baffle.

Page 8: Floor Protector (Hearth) Requirements
FLOOR PROTECTOR (Hearth) REQUIREMENTS — Free - standing models Unless your woodfire will be standing on an un-covered fireproof floor (containing no combustible material) extending at least 500mm from the appliance, it will be necessary to provide a floor pro- tector (hearth). -
Page 9: Corner Floor Protectors (Hearths)
CORNER FLOOR PROTECTORS (Hearths) While the information in the previous section details the MINIMUM size of floor protector necessary to comply with the Safety Standards, it may often be desirable to use a somewhat larger size for aesthetic reasons. A particular example is when the woodfire is installed diagonally in a corner. A neater appearance will result if the floor protector is carried right into the corner and is shaped as shown below. -

5, all heat sensitive wall material must be kept at least 600mm away from any flue which is not fitted with a flue heat shield. In New Zealand we recommend the use of genuine Masport flue kits. The flue MUST be installed in accordance with the detailed instructions accompanying it. Grandview & Toronto ceiling plates must be at least 450mm square. -

However, they MUST be in place, and in good condition, before lighting the fire. All Masport models are supplied with either fire-bricks or insulating board to line the firebox. The LE 2000 has insulating board already fixed in position at the factory. In the other models, two bricks or boards are to be fitted across the back of the firebox wall, and the others will fit against the end walls. -
Page 12: Installing A Water Heating Booster
INSTALLING A WATER HEATING BOOSTER Water heating booster tubes can be fitted to woodfires sold in New Zealand. Fitting a water booster tube converts an /S model into a /W type. If a tube is retro-fitted, in some cases the air metering plate must be changed to ensure that emission requirements are still met. -

LE 3000 Provincial can be installed into a timber framed structure provided that it is mounted in a special ‘built-in’ (or ‘zero clearance’) cabinet. A built-in (zero clearance) installation kit and the special flue components necessary are available from your Masport Dealer. Full assembly instructions are included in the kit. -

The flue recommended for use in Australia is a stainless steel chimney kit such as the Shamic #4. In New Zealand, we recommend the use of the Masport Provincial flue kit. Measure the fireplace recess and remove bricks as necessary to accept the firebox outer case which is 560mm high, 590mm wide and 460mm deep for the LE 3000 models. -

With the ash shelf removed, fit the fascia to the firebox case, keeping a gap of about 2mm between the hearth and the lower edge of the fascia. (See illustration) DOOR Hook the bottom pivot over the lower end of the hinge pin and lift the door up until the top pivot drops over the top end of the hinge pin. -
Page 16: Operating Instructions - All Models
A high fire can be shut down rapidly only by starving it of air, and this will result in undesirable emissions. For this reason, Masport woodfires are designed to settle down to lower heat outputs comparatively slowly. -
Page 17: Lighting Up
LIGHTING UP CAUTION: THIS APPLIANCE SHOULD BE MAINTAINED AND OPERATED AT ALL TIMES IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS Before lighting the first fire, spread the sand provided evenly over the floor of the firebox. Subsequently, always leave sand or ash to the level of the tops of the floor ribs. Slide the heat output control fully to the hot position. -
Page 18: Safety
• Do not modify your woodfire in any way without obtaining written permission from the Manufacturers. CAUTION. THIS APPLIANCE MUST NOT BE USED IF THE GLASS IS CRACKED OR BROKEN. THE GLASS SHOULD BE REPLACED ONLY WITH A GENUINE CERAMIC GLASS REPLACEMENT PART AVAILABLE FROM YOUR MASPORT DEALER. -
Page 19: Maintenance
MAINTENANCE ASH REMOVAL This should be necessary only very occasionally. Simply shovel out any excess, always leaving a bed of sand or ash to the tops of the ribs on the bottom of the firebox. Place the removed ashes in a non- combustible container with a tightly fitting lid, and move the container outdoors immediately to a place clear of combustible materials. -
Page 20: Before Each Heating Season
To ensure continued safety, check the condition of the following items; the flue system (particularly the flue sections nearest the firebox), the firebox top baffle, the firebox liners (bricks and boards) and the door gasket. Replace parts only with genuine MASPORT spares. ________________________________________________...
