Introducing Your Tribute Wood Stove - HearthStone 8040 04-28-04 Owner's Manual

Congratulations! You have just invested in a most unique
wood burning stove – the Tribute Wood Burning Stove
from HearthStone Quality Home Heating Products Inc®.
The Tribute Model –8040 is a clean burning EPA
certified, non-catalytic wood burning stove. At 1.1 cubic
feet capacity and 2.97 grams per hour particulate you can
be proud to join the HearthStone family with our Premier
Soap Stone Wood Burning Stove. The front door, along
with the generous depth allow for loading of wood up to
16 inches long!
Your purchase insures years of clean, comfortable heat
with minimal maintenance. You will receive the benefits
of the most advanced technology in wood burning without
the cost and maintenance requirements of a catalytic
stove. The Tribute blends modern technology with the
unique beauty and heating qualities of soapstone, long
known for its even heat production and long heat-
retaining ability. We trust that you will appreciate the
quality of our handcrafted product.
Please read this manual in its entirety. Its purpose is to
familiarize you with your stove's safe installation, proper
break-in, operation and maintenance. It contains
information that will be useful to you now, and in years to
come, so keep it handy and refer to it as needed.
Use these instructions as well as national, state, and local
building codes to install your stove. Be sure to maintain
the designated stovepipe and stove clearances to walls,
ceilings, hearth, and other combustible surfaces. This will
help reduce the risk of fire. Failure to follow these
instructions can result in property damage, bodily injury,
and even death.
Locate your stove in a safe, convenient, open area; away
from traffic flow, doors, and hallways; and near a
chimney and chimney connector. Review the proper
clearance measurements from combustible surfaces. You
can safely reduce required clearances in most cases by
using the, optional, rear heat shield, and also with a
special connector pipe and special wall coverings as
specified by this manual, the NFPA 211 codes, and your
local authorities having jurisdiction.
Keep furniture, drapes, curtains, wood, paper, and other
combustibles far away from the stove. Never install the
stove in a location where gasoline, kerosene, charcoal
lighter fluid or other flammable liquids are used or stored.

Introducing Your
Tribute Wood Stove
Locate the stove centrally in your living area to allow the
heat to travel naturally to distant rooms. We recommend
that you do not locate your stove in an uninsulated
basement. The amount of radiant energy required to heat
concrete basement walls is so great that most of the usable
heat is absorbed by them and lost.
SAFETY NOTICE:
A HOUSE FIRE MAY RESULT IF THIS
STOVE IS NOT INSTALLED PROPERLY.
