    Section 1.0 - Installation When installed and operated as described in these instructions, the Osburn Model 1800 Bay Wood Stove is suitable for use as a freestanding wood stove in either residential or mobile home installations. The Model 1800 is not intended for installation in a bedroom.

  • Page 7: Residential Installation Instructions

    Note: If outside air for combustion is to be used it should be provided for at this time. This requires that the Osburn Fresh Air Kit Wood (#OA10500) be installed (refer to the installation instructions which are provided in the outside air kit. Install the unit.
  • Page 8: Manufactured (Mobile) Home Installations - Additional Requirements

    1.4 Manufactured (Mobile) Home Installations – Additional Requirements 1. The stove must be bolted to the floor (secure the unit by prying out the two plastic plugs in the pedestal, and installing the two 3/8" x 3-1/2" (9.8mm x 88.9mm) lag bolts through the holes provided).
  • Page 9: Factory Built Chimney System

    1.5.2.1 Factory Built Chimney System The following are the generic components required for a factory built chimney system for residential installations: Chimney – in the USA use a 6” diameter (152 mm) listed UL 103 HT chimney system and components Chimney –...
  • Page 10: Connectors

    1.5.3.1 Connectors The minimum connector diameter is 6" (152 mm). A minimum connector length of 4 ft (1.22 m) is recommended for best results. Restrictions to stack gas flow (such as using more than two 90 elbows) should be avoided and any horizontal runs should be kept to a minimum length, especially with short chimneys.
  • Page 11: Exterior Chimney

    When connecting to a factory built chimney, ensure that it is installed according to the manufacturer's listed instructions. If using an existing chimney, inspect and clean the chimney if required (this should be done by a licensed chimney sweep or a qualified professional). Figure 1.3 –...
  • Page 12: Draft

    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). If you test the draft using a pressure gauge, the reading should be between .05 - .07 inches of water column (w.c.) at a medium...

  • Page 14: Section 2.0 - Operation

    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.
  • Page 15: 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, charcoal, ORDWOOD or trash in the unit.
  • Page 16: Simple Wood Moisture Test

    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.
  • Page 17: Maintaining The Fire

    2.5 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.

    a more efficient burn. Extended burn times can be accomplished by first operating the stove on a full load with the air inlet controls wide open. Once the fire is well established, and the moisture has been driven out of the wood, reduce the air control to a low setting.
  • Page 19: Glass Cleaning

    3.1.1 Glass Cleaning Under normal operation the glass is designed to stay clean. Glass cleaning may be required when burning damp wood and/or when burning slow fires. In general if the glass is not staying clean then the unit is being under fired. Dirty glass may be self cleaned by burning a hot fire (i.e. dry wood and opened draft controls) for a couple of hours.
  • Page 20: Chimney Cleaning

    When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fire which could be hazardous. Check frequently for creosote build-up. In the event of a stove or chimney component failure, replace only with equipment that is equivalent to the original, available from your Osburn dealer.
  • Page 21: Baffle Installation And Brick Notes

    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. If creosote has accumulated, it should be removed to reduce the risk of chimney fire.

Install the front secondary air tube as show in figure 3.4c ensuring air holes face forward. Install the cotter pins as in fig 3.4. Installing the front secondary air tube (E) will stabilize baffle assembly during the next step.
