(ignition of hot volatile gases as the door is opened). 5. Do not use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to start or “freshen up” a fire in this stove. Keep all flammable liquids and combustible materials 36” from any point of the stove when it is in use. 6. While burning, fuel utilizes oxygen from the air in the room. Be sure to allow an adequate amount of fresh air into the room where the stove is burning. 7. The outside surface of the stove will be hot while burning properly and can set items like clothing and curtains on fire. Keep furnishings and other combustible materials away from the stove. Using the heat from the stove to dry wet clothing can be hazardous if clothes are placed too near the surface of the stove. 8. Hot while in operation. Keep children, clothing furnishings and combustible material a considerable distance away. Contact may cause skin burns. Do not allow children to play near the stove without close supervision.

Page 4: Testing Information
Testing Information This manual describes the installation and operation of the Per- former™ S210 non-catalytic wood heaters. These heaters meet the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s emissions limits for wood heaters sold on or after July 1, 1990. This heater has been developed, tested and constructed in accordance with the require- ments of UL 1482, ULC S627 and HUD standards and is listed by OMNI Test Laboratories, Beaverton, OR. It has been approved for residential, mobile home and alcove installations. Draft Requirements Your wood stove is dependent upon a properly functioning chimney for optimum performance. It is a high efficiency appliance that loses much less heat up the chimney than older appliances and fireplaces. For this reason it is important to match the stove to the chimney. The chimney has two functions: 1. It draws combustion air into the appliance (without air, no fuel will burn) and 2. It exhausts combustion by-products. Your new Country™ Col- lection stove is what is known as a “natural draft” appliance. The appliance depends solely on the natural draft of the chimney system to draw combustion air into the unit. Draft is the force that moves air from the appliance up into the chimney. The amount of draft in your chimney depends on the length of the chimney, local geography, nearby obstructions and other factors. Too much draft may cause excessive temperatures in the appliance (overfiring). Slow or inadequate draft equals poor combustion and possible smoking problems. The following are some conditions that may contribute to poor chimney draft: 1. A chimney too large for your appliance. 2. A chimney with not enough height to produce adequate draft. -

WARNING: In the event that you remove the blower for any reason, make sure a cover plate (available from Lennox Hearth Products) is installed before using the heater. Excessive rear wall temperatures will result if the stove is burned without the cover plate. Note: The cover plate is not necessary if a blower has never been installed because a knock-out will be in place to act as the cover. -

Stove Installation 1. If not previously installed, install floor protection and move the heater into the desired location. 2. Position the stove on your floor protection in the exact location where it is to be located, making sure all minimum clearances are met. 3. If you are installing outside air on your stove, mark a 4” circle on the floor protection just below the oblong ring. When cut out, this hole will accommodate the flexible outside air tube. 4. If the stove is to be fastened to the floor, locate the hold down brackets inside the leg box and mark the floor protection below the holes in the brackets. 5. If you are installing outside air on your stove, remove the stove and cut the floor protection and the floor where the 4” air tube circle had been previously drawn. If the stove is... -

2. Next, install bricks #27-38 on top of the stainless steel secondary burn tubes in the upper part of the firebox. - Page 12 These brick sizes may be slightly smaller to adjust for steel and firebrick tolerances beyond our control. Be sure to measure and mark bricks with their numbers when removing. WARNING: IF THE BRICKS ARE NOT INSTALLED EXACTLY AS SHOWN BELOW, THEY COULD FALL OUT OF PLACE DURING REFUELING OR BURNING OF THE STOVE CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY. Firebox Brick Layout as Viewed from the Front Figure 6 * Bricks 6 and 10 fit up against the back of the firebox.

Page 13: Optional Blower Installation
Optional Blower Installation A blower, cat. no. 71000, can be installed on the stove to improve hot air distribution throughout the room. To install the blower: 1. Remove all the contents from the blower box. Included with the blower should be a blower speed control. 2. Remove the screw in the round knock out plate on the back of the stove. Bend the knock out plate back and forth until it can be removed. 3. Mount the blower as shown below. Make sure the cord is at the bottom when mounted and that it does not touch the stove anywhere. Remove the four screws from the back of the stove. Use one of the four screws with a washer on it and attach the blower through one of the four mounting legs on the blower housing. Check to make sure that the fan blade does not touch the large hole in the rear heatshield. (Spin it to check all directions). Finish attaching the blower with the other three screws. Tighten the screws moderately tight but do not over tighten as you may strip the holes out. 4. Plug in the fan speed control into the nearest outlet then plug the blower cord into the speed control. Do not route the fan power cord under the stove or allow it to come in contact with any surface of the stove. Read the section Starting and Maintaining a Fire for proper fan operating instructions on Page 15. -
Page 14: Starting And Maintaining A Fire
Do not operate the stove with the doors open or ajar, as this will produce extreme temperatures within the stove. Damage caused from over-firing is not covered under the manufacturers limited warranty. 5. For best results, use smaller pieces of wood to get the stove temperature very high before loading larger wood for sustained burns. If necessary, crack the door to al-... -
Page 15: Cleaning Glass
Over-firing a stove also causes the window to soot up. Extremely hot fires with fresh wood may cause the flow rate to exceed one foot per second, which is as fast as a flame can burn. This is why a candle goes out when you blow on it. Blow on it gently and it burns brightly. Blow on it hard and it goes out. This will cause excessive exhaust emissions and your window to soot up, as the stove is unable to burn the gases emitted from the wood. Try slowing the stove down a little by closing the damper somewhat as it warms up. Keeping freshly loaded wood away from the window will also help. Load fresh logs in the rear of the firebox. Build up tends to occur first on the right side of the window. This is caused by the swirling motion of the exhaust gases similar to water running down a drain. Keep fresh logs further back on the right side of... -
Page 16: Maximizing Your Stove's Overall Efficiency
Achieving Clean, Long Burns To achieve long burn times, after having thoroughly preheated the stove, let the stovetop cool down to 75 to 400 degrees (on Elites, locate thermometer on the face of the insert just above the door). Now load the firebox and set the draft control. At this point, you may need to burn the stove with the draft open for a few minutes to ignite the wood. All Country Collection stoves are EPA... -

Determining the lowest setting for efficient low burns. This will require some experimentation on your part. Try closing the air control all the way with the stove temperature at 325 to 350 degrees. If the flames are completely extinguished, open the air control halfway and then slowly close it until there is only a small amount of flame. It is important to check the stove about 20 minutes after setting the draft control as it takes this long for the stove temperature to stabilize. There should still be some small flames on or above the wood load. Use 5 degrees as a starting point. You can try starting tem- peratures 25 degrees higher or lower to achieve desired burn... -
Page 18: Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting Problem Solution POOR DRAFT: Extend chimney in length or have the chimney realigned to the proper size flue. Oversized chimneys nor- mally have poor drafts. Remember, the stoves’ draft depend solely on the natural draft of the chimney (See Drafting section on Page 4). If your stove is not drafting properly, your chimney is the problem. All stoves are thoroughly tested to ensure proper draft with the correct size chimney flue. EXCESSIVE DRAFT: With better chimneys being more common, excessive draft can be an issue. Alleviate excessive draft by slowing the burn rate of the stove once it has reached proper operating temperature (See Maximizing Your Stoves Overall Efficiency on Page 16). DIRTY GLASS: 1) Burn smaller, hotter fires and check to make sure you are not setting the draft down too far with the draft control. 2) Make sure your wood is well-seasoned and dry (not open to rain - see Creosote and Fuel sections on Page 4). 3) See Poor Draft section (above) and Cleaning Glass on Page 15. SMOKES WHEN 1) If smoke is entering the room, check to make sure your baffle bricks are properly installed DOOR IS OPEN: and that the insulating blanket is pushed back flush with the front of the baffle brick. 2) Check the chimney for blockage due to creosote (see Chimney and Creosote sections on Pages 3 and 3) Check draft (See POOR DRAFT section above). WOOD BURNS 1) The draft control must be closed further. TOO FAST: 2) Add fuel at lower firebox temperatures. 3) Load wood side to side and reduce the flow of air under wood. 4) The door seal may need replacing, check for leakage. 5) See “Excessive Draft.” POOR HEAT OUTPUT: 1) Check your wood. Wet, moist, unseasoned wood will not produce heat. -
Page 19: Do's And Don'ts
Do’s and Don’ts DO NOT: Install or operate this stove before reading this manual. DO NOT: Close the draft beyond the point at which the flames are completely extinguished. DO NOT: Open the stove door without fully opening the draft first. DO NOT: Burn driftwood or wood that has been in salt water. This includes some mill ends and scrap lumber that has been floated in salt water on the way to the mill. (This will void your warranty). DO NOT: Handle the Nickel or Gold faceplate unnecessarily. Use the door handle only. DO NOT: Force oversized logs into the firebox as this may dislodge the baffle assembly. DO NOT: Close the door tightly during Burn-In Period. DO: Be sure to clean any fingerprints from the Gold or Nickel faceplate before burning the stove. Clean the Gold or Nickel door only with a household type glass cleaner and a very soft cloth. DO: Consult local building department if other than recommended clearances are desired. DO: Read instructions for the brick baffles occasionally to ensure you have not bumped or moved them out of place when loading wood. DO: Check the chimney and baffle a minimum of every 3 months to make sure they are clean. DO: Burn seasoned, dry wood only! (RAIN = WET WOOD) DO: Complete and return your warranty card. DO: Open the door frequently during Burn-In Period to keep gasket from adhering to the curing paint. DO: Enjoy the warm feeling of your new Country™ Collection stove. - Page 20 BRICKS, BLANKET AND GASKETS H564 Firebrick (replacement - specify size) H5611 Firebrick Letter A - -1/8” x 9” ( per stove)” H5606 Firebrick Letter B - 4-1/” x 5-1/” (4 per stove)” H09 Firebrick Letter C - 4-1/” x 6-1/4” ( per stove)”...
