Installation requirements vary in different districts, and the local building officials have the final
authorization to approve your installation. You should discuss the installation with them before
beginning. Please ask your dealer for further information.
Do not connect to any air distribution duct or system
Important: If the installation instructions are not followed carefully, it may cause
dangerous situations like chimney - and house fires. Follow the instructions
carefully and do not deviate from them as it may cause injuries to people or
property.

1.1 Checking loose parts in the stove

After unpacking, check that the center grate (in the centre of the fire bed) and the fire bricks
are firmly in position and have not shifted in transit. Check also that the air control works freely.
The stove is heavy and therefore it is strongly recommended that when lifting, it is undertaken
by two people.
Fitting instructions for Legs
Morsø 3112: After removing the outer packaging, flatten it and lay onto the floor close to the
stove; this can then act as protective work surface during the assembly process.
Next, remove the legs and bolts from inside the stove. Gently lay the stove onto its back and
unscrew it from the wooden pallet. Using the bolts supplied, now screw the legs into position
on the underside of the base. The stove should now be lifted and moved into the upright posi-
tion, avoiding excess load on the back legs.
Morsø 3142: After removing the outer packaging, the stove should now be lifted and moved
into the position.
How to position the baffle and access baffle
Make sure that the upper baffle plate (2) is located
into its correct position. It should be placed on top of
the rear (fixed) baffle section and secured into posi-
tion against the 2 upstanding cast lugs.
Note: The access baffle (3) must always be fitted when
the stove is in use, as it not only assists the combusti-
on process, but also gives essential protection to the
stove's top plate.
Standard Accessories
Poker, ceramic flue connection gasket and riddling tool
are standard accessories, and can usually be found in
the ashpan or firebox area.

1.2 The chimney / flue system

Note that the flue system must be independently secured and must not rely on the stove for
support.
The stove must not be connected to a chimney flue serving any other appliance.
(Several flues may run up a single chimney stack; use one flueway per appliance).
Use a residential type masonry or listed type HT factory-built chimney.
High Temperature (H.T.) Chimney Standard UL-103-1985 (2100º F.) for the USA, and High
Temperature (650ºC) Standard ULC S-629 for Canada.
The internal dimensions of the chimney connector and chimney must not be less than 6 inches
diameter (or equivalent cross section), and should not be significantly larger than this. Too
large a section will tend to allow the flue gases to cool excessively, causing sluggishness or
unpredictability in the stove's performance.
We recommend the length of the chimney system should be at least 16 feet (not required) above
the stove in normal domestic situations, measured from the flue collar to the top of the chimney.
Local conditions like for example - roof constructions, large trees nearby and high altitude, may
influence the chimney draft and height. Therefore, contact the local professional chimney sweep
or your Morsø dealer.
