Hearth mount stove for masonry or zero clearance fireplaces. The 1100 is not intended for installation in a sleeping room. * The 1100 wood stove is ‘mobile home approved’ only with the pedestal option and with optional OA10500 and AC02090.
CHIMNEY ADAPTOR DOUBLE WALL CONNECTOR DOUBLE WALL 45° ELBOW OSBURN 1100 Figure1.1 Necessary installation components. Note: For manufactured home installations in the USA, the stove must be grounded to the frame of the home using a # 8 ground wire with approved terminations and star lock washers.
INSTALLATION When installed and operated as described in these instructions, the Osburn 2000 wood stove is suitable for use as a freestanding wood stove in residential installations. The E.P.A Osburn wood stove is not intended for installation in a bedroom.
DOOR OVERLAY INSTALLATION In order to complete the assembly of your freestanding Osburn 1100 wood stove, you need to install the door overlay. See Figure 1.2 below for installation instructions : 1- Position the overlay on the door frame and fix it in place from behind using the 4 screws.
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 20"...

CHIMNEY SYSTEM DEFINITIONS For clarity, the following definitions should be used with respect to these instructions: consists of the off the top of the stove, and a , which chimney system connector chimney joins to the connector and terminates outside the building envelope. can be a (of masonry construction with an inside liner), or a chimney...
RESIDENTIAL CLOSE CLEARANCES CHIMNEY SYSTEM In addition to the requirements of section 1.6.2.1 the following components are required for residential close clearances installations: Double walled connectors must be used instead of single walled connectors GENERAL INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS DO NOT F AUTION RAMED PACE...

The connector must not pass through any combustible material, nor may it pass through a concealed space (such as an attic, roof space, or closet). If passing through a wall, ceiling, or into a masonry chimney, use either chimney components listed for that specific use, or means acceptable to local authorities having jurisdiction over the installation.
The assembly should be as short and direct as possible between the stove and chimney (See figure 2.4 (A)). The use of two 45 degree elbows (See figure 2.4 (C)) is often preferable to a single 90 degree elbow (See figure 2.4 (B)) because less turbulence is created in the exhaust flow and they result in less horizontal run.
Figure 1.6 – Chimney height EXTERIOR CHIMNEY Chimneys constructed outside of the home on an exterior wall should be avoided if possible, especially in colder climates. Exterior chimneys may not draft well and in fact may down draft (reverse flow) due to the difficulty in heating them up to operating temperature while trying to evacuate the stack gases.
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. The following illustrations are provided to demonstrate the basic components required for a proper and safe installation.

Do not abuse the unit, either by over firing or by using wood or combustibles with salt content, or harmful chemicals. 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 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, ORDWOOD charcoal, or trash in the unit.
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.

Open the draft control (located on the front of the stove) fully by moving it from the left to the right, as shown in Figure 2.1 and as indicated on the ash shelf trim. Use the following table to adjust the draft control to the desired burn rate: DRAFT SETTING BURN RATE Low &...
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...
MAINTENANCE CARE AND CLEANING Clean the stove frequently so that soot, ash and creosote do not accumulate. Do not attempt to clean the stove, glass or door when the unit is hot. Special care must be taken with Gold surfaces in order to maintain the finish at its original brilliance. Do not use an abrasive glass cleaner which will scratch the glass or gold finish.

Figure 3.1 Ash removal 5. Cover the plug with the remaining ashes and continue operation of your stove as usual. The Ash Drawer is shown in Figure 3.1 and can be removed by pulling it out toward you. Lift the Ash Drawer slightly or the pedestal base may get scratched. Close the rear half of the Ash Drawer lid to prevent spillage.
Osburn dealer. Your Osburn stove has been designed to reduce the amount of creosote produced. Even so, the chimney connector pipe and chimney should be inspected at least once every two months during the heating season to determine if a creosote build-up has occurred.
BAFFLE INSTALLATION AND BRICK NOTES Follow these instructions to remove the baffle: Lift the front bricks over the front of baffle support and out Raise the front baffle support up to right and move the left end down and out the door.
BRICK LAYOUT Figure 3.3 SECONDARY AIR TUBE REPLACEMENT (See Figure 3.4) 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.
