LIGHTING

1. Open the door
Note: In the case that there is a bed of coals in the bottom of the furnace, go to Pre-heating.
2. Remove the steel plate on the ash grid and dump the ashes in the ash drawer.
3. Put the steel plate back in place, making sure it is properly seated. The steel plate on the ash grid is intended to
optimize the heat retention into the combustion chamber.
4. Place one or two dry kindlings at the front of the furnace.
5. Place newspaper strips on top of the kindlings.
6. Cover the newspaper with more kindlings and small pieces of dry wood.
7. Add newspaper strips, then light the fire a low as possible and leave the door 1/2" (13 mm) opened. If you fail
lighting the fire, you might experience a back draft through the air inlets.

PREHEATING

1. Once the kindling is well ignited or the coals revived, put 2 or 3 fire logs in such a way that the flames can
interlace between the logs then close the door. It is important to respect these loading sequences so that the
wood will burn from the front to the back of the furnace.
2. Wait 15 to 20 minutes, then proceed with loading the furnace.

HEATING

1. When loading the furnace, lower the kindled pieces of wood and place them at the center of the combustion
chamber before adding new logs.
2. Do not overload. Air must circulate freely in the upper part of the combustion chamber in order to obtain an
efficient operation of the appliance. Please note that a small hot fire will produce much less residues than a large
smouldering one.
IMPORTANT: DURING THE HEATING PROCESS, REMOVE THE ASHES AND WOOD THAT COULD
OBSTRUCT THE 1/4" (6.4 mm) HOLE LOCATED BELOW THE DOOR INSIDE THE FURNACE.
TO MINIMIZE THE RISK OF SMOKE SPILLAGE, OPEN THE DOOR 1"
AND WAIT ABOUT 10 SECONDS BEFORE OPENING COMPLETELY.
THE PURPOSE IS TO STABILIZE THE PRESSURE INSIDE THE FURNACE.
