1.0 Installation The Osburn Model 2400 is a freestanding space heater. If used and installed according to this instruction manual this stove is designed for safe operation. Altering or modifying the unit or the installation without proper authorization will void the certification, warranty, and safety listing. This may also result in a safety hazard.
Clearances to combustibles and floor protector To install your appliance correctly, it is extremely important to respect all clearances to any combustibles as indicated on your stove’s certification label. Clearances to combustible materials (see figure 1.3 to match each letter to a clearance) CLEARANCES (SINGLE WALL PIPE) CANADA 14"...

Reducing Clearances With Shielding TYPE OF PROTECTION Sides and Rear/Back Sheet metal, a minimum of 0,024" (0,61mm) spaced out at least 1" (25mm) by non-combustible spacers (see graphic 2). Ceramic tiles, or an equivalent non-combustible material on fire-proof supports spaced out at least 1" (25 mm) by non- combustible spacers (see graphic 3).

Chimney System 1.5.1 Definitions For clarity, the following definitions should be used with respect to these instructions: A chimney system consists of the connector off the top of the stove, and a chimney, which joins to the connector and terminates outside the building envelope. A chimney can be a masonry chimney (of masonry construction with an inside liner), or a factory built chimney.
We recommend that you use Avoid 90 degree eblows two 45 degree elbows instead 1.5.3.2 Chimney Systems The minimum chimney size is 6" (152 mm) in diameter. The minimum overall height of the chimney system, measured from the base of the appliance is 12' (3.66m). Existing masonry and metal chimneys should be inspected to check for deterioration and to determine if they meet the minimum installation requirements;...
1.5.3.4 Draft Your Osburn stove will attain its best performance if installed with a chimney system that has proper draft. (Draft is the force that moves air from the appliance up through the chimney and is predominantly affected by the height and diameter of the chimney, and the stack temperatures of the stove).
Figure 1.4 Connections to a Masonry Chimney (Exterior Shown) 1.5.4 Typical Types of Chimney Systems There are basically two types of chimney systems; one employs an existing masonry chimney, while the other employs a manufactured or factory built chimney. In either system the chimney may be of an interior or an exterior type.

1.6 Door overlay installation In order to complete the assembly of your Osburn 2400 wood stove, you need to install the door overlay. See figure 1 below for installation instructions : 1- Position the overlay on the door frame and fix it in place from behind using the 4 screws.
Misuse is not covered by warranty. Even though your Osburn has been specifically designed and tested to prevent smoke spillage, always open the door slowly as this will minimise the likelihood of smoke spillage or a back draft of flame or smoke into the room.
Fuel for the stove must not be stored closer than the required clearances to combustibles and not in the space required for charging and ash removal. Your Osburn stove is designed to burn . Do not burn coal, charcoal, or trash ORDWOOD in the unit.
2.2.1 Simple Wood Moisture Test Add one large piece of wood to the top of an established fire. If it starts to burn on three sides, within one minute, it is dry and seasoned and right for burning. If it turns black and starts to burn in three minutes, it is damp.
Page 22
Use Table 2.2 to adjust the draft control to the desired burn rate: Draft Setting Burn Rate Move Control against the L.H. side. Medium Low Move Control right by 2.5 cm from low position. Medium High Move Control right by 5 cm from low position. High Move Control against the R.H.
Maintaining The Fire Your Osburn stove will work best if a thick bed of hot embers is maintained in the bottom of the firebox, and a minimum of two large pieces of seasoned fuel are added. Combustion efficiency is largely related to establishing a hot ember bed, and hot firebox temperatures.
(Optional) Fan Installation and Operation Allow the stove to reach operating temperature (approximately one hour), before turning on the fan, since increased airflow from the fan will remove heat and affect the start-up combustion efficiency. NSURE ONTACT URFACE TOVE REVENT LECTRICAL HOCK AMAGE...
The chimney and the chimney connector pipe must be maintained in good condition and be kept clean in order to be safe. This means that the chimney should be checked regularly for creosote build-up. Inspection and cleaning of the chimney is facilitated by a removable baffle. 2400 W AUTION PERATION...
If creosote has accumulated, it should be removed to reduce the risk of chimney fire. Call a professional chimney sweep, or go to your local Osburn dealer, purchase a chimney brush, and have the chimney cleaned.

Figure 3.4a Figure 3.4b Figure 3.4c 1- Install the stainless steel brick retainers (A) on the rear centre bricks intersections. 2- Install the first side baffle support (B) on one side of the firebox as shown in figure 3.4a. 3- Put the vermiculite boards on top of the rear secondary air tube. The vermiculite boards must be placed next to each other (not stacked).
Secondary Air Tube Replacement Remove cotter pin at LH end of tube. Slide tube to right and lower tube end below LH plenum. Slide tube to left to remove. Reassemble in reverse order using a new cotter pin. The cotter pin is a hammerlock style and locks into place by hitting the head sharply with a hammer.
