UNPACKING – PITTSBURGH & FATSO To facilitate shipping, the top belly is packed upside down inside the bottom belly. First bolt the four legs securely to the base. If a water heating coil is to be fitted, remove the two cover plugs in the bottom belly and insert the coil, securing it with the backing nuts provided. -

To fit the water coil, remove the mounting hole plugs, apply sealant to the belly joint as described for the PITTSBURGH and FATSO stoves (above), and hook the top end of the coil into the hole in the top belly. Lower the top belly onto the bottom one, feeding the lower end of the coil into the lower hole. -
Page 5: Minimum Unshielded Wall Clearances
To find the reduced minimum distances, multiply the figures in Table 1 by the appropriate clearance factor. EXAMPLE: A PITTSBURGH has a normal minimum rear clearance of 850mm and a side clearance of 900mm. The reduced minimum clearances for type A shielding would be 850 x 0.4 (340mm) at the rear, and 900 x 0.4 (360mm) at the side. -
Page 6: Wall Shield Sizes
If the rearward extension of the hearth is not limited by a wall heat screen, it must extend back from the stove feet by 300mm for the PITTSBURGH and FATSO, 325 for the YUKON and 415 for the KLONDIKE or OREGON. The hearth must extend forward from the feet of all models by 375mm. -
Page 7: Flue Installation
FLUE INSTALLATION The stove must be installed using a Masport approved flue kit (including a ceiling plate). Approved flue kits are supplied with detailed fitting instructions which, if followed, will ensure that the installation will meet the required safety standards for performance and durability. -

The multi-purpose handle supplied may be used to remove the hot-plate (whether it is hot or cold), and to open the top door of the PITTSBURGH, KLONDIKE or YUKON stoves. The FATSO and OREGON have built-in ‘heat-proof’ handles to open their top doors. -
Page 10: Controlling The Fire
Before lighting the fire, the damper must be fully open (its handle in line with the flue). If your stove has a STEADIHEAT control, its handle should be no lower than mid-way between the bottom(low) and top(high) positions. With all hot plates in place, light the paper in several places and close the top door. If your model has a rotating air control on the front of the top door, turn the round plate (using the multi-purpose tool) until the air holes in it are fully open. -
Page 11: Refuelling
Eventually it may be necessary to touch up the exterior finish. Use only a special Very High Temperature black Stove Paint (available from your Masport Dealer). We do not recommend the use of stove polishes. -
