TYPICAL SIDE-WALL PROTECTION FOR CLEARANCE REDUCTION OF 50%

RULES FOR SAFE INSTALLATION AND OPERATION

1.
Always connect this heater to a residential type chimney and vent to the outside. Never vent to another room or
inside a building
2.
Read these rules and the instructions carefully.
3.
Check your local codes. The installation must comply with their requirements.
4.
Do not connect to aluminum Type "B" gas vent. An approved masonry or residential type pre-fabricated chimney
for use with solid fuel is required. See CHIMNEYS above. The inside diameter must be at least 150 mm (6").
5.
Make sure the chimney top is high enough to give a good draft. Keep the chimney and pipe clean inside to avoid
blockage. Otherwise, smoking will result.
6.
Examine and clean flue pipe frequently to prevent chimney fires.
7.
To prevent injury, do not allow anyone who is unfamiliar with the operation to use the heater.
8.
Do not install damper or restrictions of any kind in flue pipe.
9.
Burn wood only. Do not use wet or green wood. The wetter or greener the wood, the more creosote will be
produced. (See Facts on Creosote). Do not use artificial logs or barbecue charcoal fuel.
CAUTION
Indicates a situation in which injury or damage to your appliance, or both, could result if the caution is ignored.
1.
Do not install models NS220 (Newmac Status) or NC100 (Newmac Classic) in a mobile home or trailer.
2.
Do not install room heater in a sleeping room.
3.
The NCM120 (Newmac Classic II Mobile) mobile home heater should be installed in the largest room of the mobile
home.

6.
Do not connect to any air distribution duct or system.
7.
Do not use chemicals or fluids to start the fire.
8.
Do not burn garbage or flammable liquids, such as gasoline, naptha, engine oil, etc, as these may cause an
explosion.
9.
Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to start or 'freshen
up' a fire in this heater. Keep all such liquids well away from the heater while it is in use.

the heater until it has cooled.

operation and smoking. Be sure that sufficient air is provided to exhaust fans on other household devices.
12. Install a smoke detector to warn of possible hazardous situations.
