the use of grates, andirons or other means of elevating the re and must not be used.
18. During the rst 12 to 15 res. Additional smoke and odor may be emitted from the light oils used in construction
of the re box. This should disappear after a short period of time and not occur again. Persons with lung
conditions or owners of susceptible domestic pets (such as birds) should take prudent precautions. Open
windows and doors as needed to clear smoke and/or odor. Paint discoloration will occur if the stove is over
red.
19. This stove has a painted surface which is durable but it will not stand rough handling or abuse. When installing
your stove, use care in handling.
20. CLEAN STOVE FREQUENTLY as soot, creosote and ash may accumulate. Clean exterior with soap and warm
water when stove is not hot. Do not use any acids or scouring soap, as these solvents wear and dull the nish.
21. ALERT ALL PERSONS TO THE HAZARDS OF HIGH SURFACE TEMPERATURES while stove is in operation especially
young children. Keep away from a hot stove to avoid burns or clothing ignition.
22. NEVER LEAVE SMALL CHILDREN UNSUPERVISED WHEN THEY ARE IN THE SAME ROOM AS THE STOVE. If small
children will be in the same room as the stove during operation, provide a sturdy barrier to keep them at a
safe distance from the stove.
23. Keep stove area clear and free from all combustible materials, gasoline, engine oil, naphtha and other
ammable vapors and liquids.
24. WHILE TENDING THE FIRE ALWAYS WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING, re retardant hearth gloves and eye
protection, to prevent burns.
25. Never operate this stove with the door open except when re-fueling. Such actions can result in very dangerous
operating conditions.
26. DO NOT OVER FIRE THE STOVE. Over ring will occur if combustion air is uncontrolled as when feed door is left
open during operation. Such actions can result in very dangerous operating conditions. While in operation,
keep the feed door closed and secured at all times except while tending the re
27. When adding fuel be careful not to smother the re. Do not build res against glass and do not load fuel to

egress in the event of a re.
31. DO NOT INSTALL IN A SLEEPING ROOM. DO NOT INSTALL IN AN ALCOVE OR INSIDE A FIREPLACE.
32. Install at least one smoke detector on each oor of your home. Detectors should be located away from
the heating appliance to avoid false alarms. Detectors should be located close to sleeping areas. Follow
the smoke detectors manufacturer’s placement and installation instructions. Maintain smoke detector per
manufacturer’s instructions.
33. CARBON MONOXIDE (CO) HAZARD. A buildup of CO fumes is toxic and can be fatal. Carbon Monoxide
is a colorless, odorless gas produced during combustion of wood, coal, oil, gas and by other fuel burning
appliances. It is important to have a proper draft and adequate replacement air ventilation so fumes
are drawn out the chimney. Installed as instructed this stove is designed to be as safe as possible yet it is
recommended to install a CO detector. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for proper installation
and use. It is recommended to be placed at table-top level (not near the ceiling) to avoid false alarms.
Realize that devices other than a stove (i.e. motor exhaust) can trigger CO alarms.
34. If alarm sounds:
Recognize the symptoms of CO poisoning (headaches, nausea & drowsiness).
Increase ventilation (open windows & doors).
Make sure stove doors and/or lids are closed and secured.
Check stove for smoking or pufng (open airow controls).
Check chimney & connector pipe for leaks, blockage or down-draft conditions.
Check CO device for false alarm.
Keep power cords, electrical appliances and/or assemblies outside of the clearance area shown in this
manual for combustible materials.
35. Consult your municipal building department or re ofcials about restrictions, permits and installation
requirements for your area.

FIREBRICK ASSEMBLY
Firebrick extends the life of your stove and radiates heat more evenly. Check to see that all rebricks are in their
correct positions and have not become misaligned during shipping or assembly. If removed for ease of locating
stove, rebrick must be replaced before ring. See gures 7a – 7c, for proper positioning.
Fire Brick Dimensions (inches)
A-size: 9˝x4½˝x1¼˝
M-size: 9˝x2¼˝x1¼˝
XD-size: 8˝x4½˝x1¼˝†
XE-size: 9¾˝x1½˝x1¼˝
† XD bricks have offset notches to accommodate air tube side supports – see illustrations
CHIMNEY SIZING
Today’s solid fuel heating appliances are much more efcient than those made in the past. Your heating
appliance has been designed to provide the most efcient transfer of heat possible from the least amount of fuel.
Controlled combustion is the key to optimum heating performance. Controlled combustion requires a ow of
fresh air into the appliance, across the fuel and is nally exhausted up the chimney. Today’s high efciency stoves
transfer more heat into the living area and less up the chimney. Exhaust gases are typically at a lower temperature
than traditional type stoves. With lower exhaust temperatures, it is important that the chimney is correctly sized to
the stove. If the chimney diameter is too large, it will be difcult to raise the chimney ue temperature to provide
for adequate draft. This may result in a poor burn, smoke spillage, and rapid creosote creation. A 6”/152mm
diameter chimney is best suited for this stove. Your heating appliance must have a minimum of a 6”/152mm
diameter chimney. Maximum chimney diameter must not exceed 10˝ /254mm or have a cross sectional area
greater than 85 sq. in. /550cm2. Proper draft for this heating appliance is minimum of 0.05 w.c. (water column
measurement) and is required to prevent back pufng, smoke spillage and prevent safety hazards. Take into
account the chimney’s location to insure it is not too close to neighbors or in a valley which may cause unhealthy
or nuisance conditions.
IMPORTANCE OF PROPER DRAFT
Draft is the force which moves air from the appliance up through 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. Inadequate draft may cause backpufng into
the room and ‘plugging’ of the chimney.
Inadequate draft will cause the appliance to leak smoke into the room through appliance and chimney
connector joints. An uncontrollable burn or excessive temperature indicates excessive draft.
CAUTION: Never operate stove with
missing or cracked re bricks!

Connector pipe is used to make the connection from the nal positioning of your stove to an approved chimney.
Connector pipe is NOT included as part of the stove. Connector pipe must be 6”/152mm diameter minimum of
24 MSG (minimum standard gauge) black or 26 MSG blue steel stove pipe.
Any connector pipe used must be in good condition. Replace if necessary before using stove. Connector pipe is
not rated to provide close contact to combustible materials and must have proper clearance from combustible
materials as shown in the clearance diagrams on the previous pages. Connector pipe should never be used in
place of a chimney. If proper clearances are not observed a house re could result.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Please Note: Installation of a ue damper is NOT recommended. Combustion control is regulated by the intake
of combustion air, not the exhaust.
1. The crimped end of the stovepipe ts inside the stove ue collar. Secure with three (3) equally spaced sheet
metal screws. The rst section of connector pipe must be single walled to properly attach to the stove collar.
Install additional pipe and elbow with the crimped end towards the stove. This will allow any condensation
in the ue to run back into the rebox.
2. Horizontal pipe runs must slope upwards towards the chimney at least 1/4˝/6.4mm per foot of horizontal run.
3. You must have at least 18˝/457mm of clearance between any horizontal piping and the ceiling.
4. The pipe cannot extend into the chimney ue (gure 8).
5. Secure all pipe/elbow sections with three (3) equally spaced sheet metal screws at each joint to make the
piping rigid. DO NOT CONNECT THIS STOVE TO ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCT OR SYSTEM.
6. It is recommended that no more than two (2) 90° bends be used in the stovepipe installation. The use of
more than two 90° bends may decrease the amount of draw and possibly cause smoke spillage. Where
possible, use only corrugated (non adjustable) elbows. These provide a better seal.
7. The connector pipe must not pass through an attic or roof space, trusses, closet, or any concealed space,
oor, ceiling, wall, or combustible construction. (See Chimney Connector Systems & Clearances, page
13.) A manufactured chimney system listed to UL 103 HT (US)/ULC-S629 (CDN) must be used from the rst
penetration of ceiling or wall to the chimney cap. Where passage through a wall or partition of combustible
construction is desired, the installation shall conform to NFPA 211 (USA) or CAN/CSA-B365 (Canada).
Connector Pipe Installation
Figure 8 – Stovepipe/Flue Connections
NOTE: Connector pipe is not included. To purchase, visit your local hardware, home, or building center. See
“locating stove” page 6 for additional specications.
NOTICE: For mobile home installations (US only), connector pipe must be double-wall, high-tempurature pipe
that meets ul 103 ht specications.
WARNING: Do not use single wall connector pipe as a chimney - a house re could result.

The stove must be connected to either a lined masonry or manufactured metal chimney built and tested to the
specications listed on the previous pages.
Chimneys perform two functions:
1. As a means of exhausting smoke and ue gases which are the result of fuel combustion.
2. The chimney (only) provides “draft” which allows oxygen to be continuously introduced into the appliance,
so that proper combustion is possible. This stove relies on natural draft to operate.
NOTICE: Always provide a source of fresh air into the room where the stove is located. Failure to do so may result
in air starvation of other fuel burning appliances and the possible development of hazardous conditions.
A stove DOES NOT create draft. Draft is provided by the chimney. To achieve proper draft your chimney must
meet the four minimum height requirements detailed in gures 11–13. If these minimum requirements are not met
your stove will not operate properly. A minimum of 0.05 w.c. (measured in water column) is required for proper
drafting to prevent back pufng, smoke spillage, and to maximize performance. (Gauges to measure draft are
readily available at stove stores and are economical to rent or purchase.) Factors such as wind, barometric
pressure, trees, terrain and chimney temperature can have an adverse effect on the draft. The manufacturer
cannot be held responsible for external factors leading to less than optimal drafting. Should you have a problem
with inadequate draft, you should contact a licensed heating and cooling contractor for assistance in solving the
problem. For a more in-depth explanation see Chimney Draft.
IMPORTANT INSTALLATION POINTS
1. Size chimney ue to stove collar. This stove requires a minimum of a 6”/152mm diameter ue.
2. Never connect this unit to a chimney serving another appliance.
3. The chimney must meet all minimum height requirements.
4. Never use a chimney to ventilate a cellar or basement.
5. Contact your local building authority for approved methods of installation and any necessary permits and/
or inspections.
MASONRY CHIMNEY
The chimney must be a code-approved, masonry
chimney with ue liner. Before using an existing
masonry chimney, clean the chimney, inspect the
ue liner and make any repairs needed to be sure
it is safe to use. Make repairs before attaching the
stove. The connector stove pipe and ttings you will
need to connect directly to a lined masonry chimney
are shown in gure 10. If the connector stove pipe
must go through a combustible wall before entering
the masonry chimney, consult a qualied mason or
chimney dealer. The installation must conform to local
building and re codes and latest edition of NFPA 211
US or CAN/CSA-B365. If there is a clean out opening in
the base of the chimney, close it tightly.

MANUFACTURED CHIMNEY
REFER TO CHIMNEY AND CHIMNEY CONNECTOR MAKER’S
INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION AND USE.
Use only 6˝/152mm diameter manufactured chimney
system listed to UL 103 HT (US) or ULC-S629 (CDN).
Chimney made to this listing is High Temperature rated to
2100°F/1149°C. Use chimney from only one manufacturer.
Never mix brands. Carefully follow the chimney
manufacturer’s stated requirements and clearances.
Use the chimney manufacturer’s attic guards, roof
supports, ashing and re stops when passing through a
ceiling. Use a listed wall pass-thru when passing through
a combustible wall. Do not use makeshift compromises
during installation.
WARNING: DO NOT USE A SINGLE-WALL CONNECTION
PIPE AS A CHIMNEY!
When using a pre-existing chimney, have its condition
and installation inspected before using. Make sure that
the chimney meets all of the UL rating requirements listed
above. Be aware that not all manufactured chimney is
UL 103 HT/ULC-S629 rated. NOTE: It is recommended that
you contact a licensed heating and cooling contractor
(consult your local yellow pages) for chimney installation.
Manufactured chimney with the proper required UL/ULC
listing is available from most home centers, hardware
stores, and HVAC supply stores. You may wish to view
chimney manufacturers’ information on-line. See, www.
duravent.com, www.selkirkinc.com or www.mtlfab.com.
VENTING TO EXISTING FIREPLACE
In some instances, people desire to convert an existing
replace for stove use. Usually, safe connection to an
existing masonry chimney requires more work than using
a prefabricated chimney. The existing replace must be
closed and sealed at the damper with high-temperature
caulk, ceramic wool, or furnace cement. Prior to
installation, clean and inspect the existing ue and smoke
shelf. Installation should be designed so the system can
be dismantled for periodic cleaning and inspection.
Before conversion, make sure the existing chimney is
structurally sound, the chimney incorporates a ue liner
and make sure it is in good condition. (A ue liner consists
of clay tile that protects the brickwork of a chimney. If a
chimney does not have a liner, or it is damaged, have it
relined by a professional. Do Not use a chimney that is
unlined or damaged! If you have any question regarding
the condition of the chimney, consult a qualied licensed
contractor, qualied engineer, competent mason, cer
tied Chimney Sweep, or a knowledgeable inspector.
Consult your insurance company if you cannot nd a
qualied expert.
-12-
CAUTION: Not all replace chimneys are suitable for conversion to accommodate connection to a wood
stove. Check with a qualied expert.
Many prefabricated replaces are of the “zeroclearance replace” category. These consist of multi layered
metal construction. They are designed with enough insulation and/or air cooling on the base, back and sides so
they can be safely installed in direct contact with combustible oors and walls. Although many prefabricated
replaces carry endorsements from nationally recognized organizations for use as replaces, they have not been
tested for connection to wood stove heaters. Connecting a stove to such a device will void the manufacturer’s
warranty. Venting a stove directly into a replace does not meet code and should not be attempted. The stove
warranty will be void with such an installation. Do not create a hazard in your home by connecting in this manner.
FIREPLACE INSTALLATION
NOTE: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ROUTE THE CHIMNEY CONNECTOR PIPE THROUGH THE THROAT OF THE FIREPLACE.
Directly connecting the stovepipe into the existing masonry chimney (gure 14 “Type A” Fireplace Conversion) of
the replace is the ONLY approved method of installation. If the chimney is behind a combustible wall, you must
use an approved wall passthrough system to gain access to the chimney. This is a complicated and involved
process and to ensure safety should only be done by a qualied installer.
1. An entry hole must be cut through the masonry and tile liner with minimal damage to the liner. At least
8˝/203mm of liner must remain below the entry position. When locating the stove and stovepipe, all minimum
clearances must be observed from combustible surfaces including mantels, combustible trim work, ceilings,
and walls. Positioning the center of the stove pipe entry into the chimney 24˝/61cm below the ceiling should
insure proper clearance for a 6˝/152mm stovepipe.
2. Install a re clay (5/8˝/16mm minimum thickness) thimble. Make sure the thimble is ush with the inner surface
of the chimney liner and does not protrude into the ue (see gure 9 on page 9).
3. Secure the thimble with refractory mortar. The thimble should be surrounded by 12˝/305mm of solid unit
masonry brickwork or 24˝/61cm of stone.
4. Install the stovepipe into the thimble as far as possible without extending past the ue lining.
5. A small airspace (about 1/2˝/13mm) should remain between the stovepipe and thimble to allow for
expansion of the pipe. Seal this airspace with high temperature caulking or ceramic wool.
6. Secure and seal the damper in the closed position using high-temp caulking, ceramic wool, or furnace
cement. Also check to see if the chimney has a clean out.
If it does, make sure it is closed and sealed as well. A leaky clean out will greatly reduce draft efciency. If
you have any questions regarding venting your stove, contact the manufacturer or contact the National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA) and request a copy of the latest editions of NFPA Standard 211 and NFPA Standard
908. Their address is: Battery March Park, Quincy, MA 02269.

OPERATING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Never overre this stove by building excessively hot res as a house/ building re may result. You are overring
the stove if unit or stovepipe begins to glow or turn red.
2. Never build extremely large res in this type of stove as damage to the stove or smoke leakage may result
3. Do not build re too close to glass.
4. Unit is hot while in operation. Keep children, clothing, and furniture away. Contact may cause skin burns. Do
not touch the stove after ring until it has cooled.
5. Provide air into the room for proper combustion.
6. Inspect stovepipe every 60 days. Replace immediately if stovepipe is rusting or leaking smoke into the room.
7. Attempts to achieve heat output rates that exceed heater design specications can result in permanent
damage to the heater.
THIS STOVE IS DESIGNED TO BURN NATURAL WOOD FUEL ONLY!
Hardwood, 18˝ to 20˝ / 45cm to 50cm should be air dried (seasoned), for a minimum of 6 months. Logs grater
than 6˝/152mm in diameter should be split. Wood should be stored in a dry, well ventilated area. The humidity
content for usable rewood must be less than 20% of the weight of the log. This heater is designed to burn natural
wood only. Higher efciencies and lower emissions generally result when burning air dried seasoned hardwoods,
as compared to softwoods or to green or freshly cut hardwoods.
Attempts to use wet or unseasoned wood will cause:
- ignition problems - rapid creosote build-up resulting in chimney re
- incomplete combustion - low heat yield
- blackened glass
DO NOT BURN:
1. Garbage;
2. Lawn clippings or yard waste;
3. Materials containing rubber, including tires;
4. Materials containing plastic;
5. Waste petroleum products, paints or paint thinners,
or asphalt products;
6. Materials containing asbestos;
7. Construction or demolition debris;
8. Railroad ties or pressure-treated wood;
9. Manure or animal remains;
10. Salt water driftwood or other previously salt water
saturated materials;
11. Unseasoned wood; or
12. Paper products, cardboard, plywood, or
particleboard. The prohibition against burning
these materials does not prohibit the use of re
starters made from paper, cardboard, saw dust,
wax and similar substances for the purpose of
starting a re in an affected wood heater.
Burning these materials may result in release of toxic fumes or render the heater ineffective and cause smoke.
Dead wood lying on the forest oor should be considered wet, and requires full seasoning time. Standing dead
wood can usually be considered to be about 2/3 seasoned. Splitting and stacking wood before it is stored
accelerates drying time. Storing wood on an elevated surface from the ground and under a cover or covered
area from rain or snow also accelerates drying time. A good indicator if wood is ready to burn is to check the
piece ends. If there are cracks radiating in all directions from the center then the wood should be dry enough
to burn. If your wood sizzles in the re, even though the surface is dry, it may not be fully cured, and should be
seasoned longer.
Operating Instructions
Caution: House Fire Hazards
Do not store wood on oor protector, underneath stovepipe or anywhere within minimum clearances from
combustible surfaces specied for this stove.
Overring may cause a house re. You are overring if a unit or chimney connector glows red.
Warning: Explosion Hazard
Never use chemicals, gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter uid, or similar
ammable liquids to start or “freshen-up” a re in the stove.
Keep all ammable liquids, especially gasoline, out of the vicinity of the stove— whether in use or in
storage.

OPTIMAL FUEL CONSUMPTION
This stove is designed to get the most efcient transfer of heat energy from the wood fuel and radiate it into your
living environment. The re box introduces combustion air through four sources. (1) Immediately beneath the door
opening below the window is a Lower Primary Air Orice (LPAO). (2) The primary air inlet control (center control
lever) brings air into the rebox and controls the rate of burn (and the amount of heat the stove radiates). (3)
The high burn duct control (right control lever) provides additional air for maximum burn rate. (4) The secondary
air tubes at the top of the rebox are designed to ignite the combustion gases (smoke) given off by the burning
wood and increases the efciency of the stove and reduces chimney emissions. Smoke given off by burning
fuel consists of very small organic liquid droplets. If these droplets condense, they form a sticky tar-like substance
called creosote. When operated properly, this stove is designed to burn these droplets. Burning these droplets
releases heat that would otherwise be lost up the chimney as smoke. Following the instructions below will help
you operate your stove properly to maximize the stove’s performance. Actual performance is dependent on
chimney height, weather, log size, wood species and moisture content. Some experimentation will initially be
required to nd that “sweet spot” where your stove performs best. The following will give you a starting point to
nd your optimum settings.
TAMPER WARNING
This wood heater has a manufacturer-set minimum low burn rate that must not be altered. It is against federal
regulations to alter this setting or otherwise operate this wood heater in a manner inconsistent with operating
instructions in this manual.
EFFICIENCIES
Efciencies can be based on either the lower heating value (LHV) or the higher heating value (HHV) of the fuel.
The lower heating value is when water leaves the combustion process as a vapor, in the case of woodstoves the
moisture in the wood being burned leaves the stove as a vapor. The higher heating value is when water leaves
the combustion process completely condensed. In the case of woodstoves this would assume the exhaust gases
are room temperature when leaving the system, and therefore calculations using this heating value consider
the heat going up the chimney as lost energy. Therefore, efciency calculated using the lower heating value of
wood will be higher than efciency calculated using the higher heating value. In the United States all woodstove
efciencies should be calculated using the higher heating value.
The best way to achieve optimum efciencies is to learn the burn characteristic of you appliance and burn well-
seasoned wood. Higher burn rates are not always the best heating burn rates; after a good re is established a
lower burn rate may be a better option for efcient heating. A lower burn rate slows the ow of usable heat out
of the home through the chimney, and it also consumes less wood.
When rst loading fuel set the primary air inlet control (center) at the wide open (push in) position for at least
15–20 minutes (the high burn duct control should be closed – pulled out – when starting res). When the stove is
working properly you should be able to observe secondary combustion ames above the fuel pieces in front of
the secondary air tubes at the top of the rebox. These secondary ames should continue to burn after the primary
air inlet is reset from wide open to the desired operating setting. If the ames do not continue to burn, open the air
control to re-establish the secondary ames then slowly reset the air control to the desired setting. Initially it may
take several attempts to gure your stove out. But once you nd the operating “sweet spot” and the correct mix
of procedures to get there, only minor adjustments will be necessary. The best indicator of a properly operating
stove is to look for smoke coming out of the chimney. You may see steam emissions that will quickly dissipate.
Smoke will thin but continue to drift without totally disappearing. If you do detect smoke emissions, open the air
control a little bit, let the stove adjust for 10–15 minutes and re-check your chimney. Remember visible smoke
represents lost heat.
NOTICE - INITIAL BURNS TO CURE PAINT BECAUSE OF THE HIGH OPERATING TEMPERATURES, THIS STOVE USES A
SPECIAL HIGH-TEMP PAINT WHICH REQUIRES A SERIES OF BURNS TO CURE THE PAINT FOR DURABILITY AND A LIFETIME
OF SERVICE.
Proper curing of the high-temp paint requires a series of three initial burns. The stove should be allowed to cool
off between each burn. The rst two burns should be small res and low temperatures (250°F/120°C) for a duration
of 20 minutes each. The third re should be at a medium-high temperature (500 to 700°F/260 to 370°C) for twenty
minutes. Provide adequate cross ventilation to clear any smoke or odor caused by initial rings.
Notice: Use solid wood materials only. Do not burn garbage or ammable uids such as gasoline, naphtha
or engine oil. Do not use coal. This stove is not designed to accommodate the air ow (draft) necessary to
properly burn coal or coal products. Do not elevate re or use grates or andirons. Build re directly on bottom
of rebox.
-16-
STARTING A FIRE
DO NOT LEAVE STOVE UNATTENDED WITH DOOR OPEN! The top down method of re building is recommended
for this appliance. After making sure that the stove air intake controls are fully open (completely pull-out towards
you), Place the largest pieces of wood on the bottom, laid in parallel and close together. Smaller pieces are
placed in a second layer, crossways to the rst. A third layer of still smaller pieces is laid crossways to the second,
this time with some spaces between. Then a fourth layer of loose, small kindling and twisted newspaper sheets
tops off the pile.
Add large pieces of wood as the re progresses being careful not to overload. (Do not ll rebox beyond rebrick
area.) An ideal coal bed of (25mm - 50mm) should be established to achieve optimum performance.
This unit is designed to function most effectively when air is allowed to circulate to all areas of the rebox. TIP: If
ash or coals remain in the stove, make sure to clear them away from the Lower Primary Air Orice (LPAO) and
rake a slight (1˝ 2˝/25mm-50mm wide) trough down the center of the coal bed from front to back prior to
loading the fuel. Once fuel has been loaded, close the door and leave the air inlet control fully open until re is
well established (at least 15–20 minutes) being careful not to over re (if any of the exterior parts of the stove or
chimney connections begin to glow you are over ring the stove). Re-adjust the primary air inlet control (A) to
desired burn rate. For “low” setting pull the primary air control (center control) all the way out, for “high” push
all the way back. (If excessive smoke lls the rebox, open air inlet control slightly until ames resume and wood
is sufciently ignited.) The basic rule of thumb is “closed (pull out) = low,” “half way open = medium” and “fully
open (push in) = high.” The high burn control lever (B) is used to deliver additional air to an established re when
the primary control is set at 3⁄4 to fully open (all the way in) position. Push the secondary (right) control in to open/
high burn position. When adjusting the primary air to a lower setting, close (pull out) the high burn (right, 3/4 lever)
by pulling control fully out.
1. Set Primary Air Inlet Control Lever “A” to fully open by pushing the center control lever (located under hearth
plate) inward toward the rear of stove. Set the Secondary Air (High Burn) Control Lever “B” to the closed
position by pulling the lever fully out. NOTE: OPEN/HIGH = IN; CLOSED/LOW = OUT (see iIlustrations below)
2. Open the feed door and place several wads of crushed paper in the rebox. Cover the paper with a few
pieces of small kindling wood.
3. Ignite the paper and leave the door slightly open until the kindling re is established. Close and secure the
door. DO NOT LEAVE STOVE UNATTENDED WITH THE DOOR OPEN! Slowly add additional wood, adding larger
pieces as the re progresses.
4. Once the re is fully established you may select the desired burn rate. Be careful not to over re the stove.

ADDING FUEL
If the coal bed is not hot and glowing, rake the coals to the front of the stove, close the door and adjust the
primary air inlet control to the wide open position. Let the coals re-heat for 10–15 minutes. When hot and glowing,
spread them out and place your next fuel load into the stove (make sure no coals or ashes block the LPAO).
Leave the primary air inlet control in the wide open (pushed in) position for 15–20 minutes. Fuel load size can vary
but should be kept 1–2˝
(25mm-50mm) below the secondary air tubes. Also position the fuel to leave space so the air from the inlet can
work between the pieces of fuel. This reduces the time it takes for new fuel to burn properly.
1. When refueling, adjust primary air inlet (center) control to the fully open (pushed in) position. When re
brightens, slowly and carefully open the door. This procedure will prevent unburned gases from igniting
causing smoke and ame spillage.
2. When adding fuel be careful not to hit, bump or damage the ceramic bafe board located at the top of
the rebox.
3. Add fuel being careful not to overload or over re the stove.
4. When adding fuel be careful not to smother the re. Do not build res against glass and make sure the coal
bed does not obstruct the air inlet. Do not load fuel to a height or in such a manner that it creates a hazard
when opening the door.
5. Close the feed door and secure tightly.
6. Adjust the air inlet control as described above.
7. Empty ashes regularly. Do not allow ashes to pile up (see Safety Instructions #14 on page 2.)
8. Properly dispose of hot ashes (see Safety Instructions, item #14 on page 2.)
9. Do not over re the stove (over ring is when any part of the stove exterior or chimney connections glow).
VISIBLE SMOKE
The amount of visible smoke being produced can be an effective method of determining how efciently the
combustion process is taking place at the given settings. Visible smoke consist of unburned fuel and moisture
leaving your stove. Learn to adjust the air settings of your specic unit to produce the smallest amount of visible
smoke. Wood that has not been seasoned properly and has a high wood moisture content will produce excess
visible smoke and burn poorly.
-18-
Chimney Connections
Caution: Do not over re appliance. You are over ring if the chimney connectors or stove glows red. Close
the door and immediately shut all air controls (pull out) to reduce the air supply and slow down the re.
Caution: Slow burning res and extended use may cause excessive creosote buildup. Ignition of creosote or
over ring may cause a chimney re. Chimney res burn extremely hot and may ignite surrounding materials.
In case of a chimney re call the re department immediately.
OPERATIONAL TIPS
Get the appliance hot and establish a good coal bed before adjusting to a low burn rate (this may take 30
minutes or more depending on your wood)
Use smaller pieces of wood during start-up and a high burn rate to increase the stove temperature
Be considerate of the environment and only burn dry wood
Burn small, intense res instead of large, slow burning res when possible
Learn your appliance’s operating characteristics to obtain optimum performance
Burning unseasoned wet wood only hurts your stoves efciency and leads to accelerated creosote buildup
in your chimney
Caution: risk of re when wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors, which combine
with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney ue
of a slow-burning re. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the ue lining. When ignited this creosote
makes an extremely hot re. The chimney connector and chimney should be inspected at least once every
two months during the heating season to determine if a creosote buildup has occurred. If creosote has
accumulated (3mm or more) it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney re.
Warning: In Case Of Chimney Fire
1. Close air inlet control
2. Get out of the house
3. Call the re department.
CHIMNEY DRAFT
The chimney is critical to the proper operation of the stove. It is the chimney that creates draft; THE STOVE DOES
NOT AND CANNOT CREATE DRAFT. The chimney provides two vital functions for proper stove operation. First, it is
the passage to exhaust smoke and hot gases created in the combustion process. Secondly, it supplies the draft (or
pressure) to bring oxygen to the re to sustain combustion. Draft is the natural movement of air or gases through a
chimney. Chimney draft comes from the natural tendency for hot (less dense) air to rise. As the hot air rises within
the chimney it creates a lower pressure at the bottom of the chimney to which the stove is connected. The higher
pressure air outside the stove then rushes into the stove where the lower air pressure level exists, thus bringing
oxygen to the re. This constant ow of air is referred to as the draft. Many factors or combination of factors can
act together to build or impede the draft. Without the correct amount of draft, the stove will not operate properly.
If there is excessive draft, an unsafe condition will arise with too much air being drawn into the stove and creating
an excessively hot re. This could cause over ring which runs the risk of igniting structural elements around the
stove and chimney. The most common experience is that of insufcient draft. Under insufcient draft conditions,
the re will be starved for oxygen, improper or incomplete combustion occurs resulting in smoke spillage into the
area around the stove. A re that is starved for oxygen will not burn well. Such a re will produce excessive smoke
that will cool and condense in the chimney creating creosote. Excessive amounts of creosote buildup can ignite
causing a chimney re with the possibility of structural elements igniting as well. Correct any draft related issues
before using the stove. The following are some possible causes of insufcient draft. Please note that one or more
factors may play a role in a draft issue and certain factors may change over time as conditions vary.
-19-
1. Atmospheric Pressure and Air Supply Atmospheric pressure that affects the draft may occur from outside
the structure, inside the structure, or both. High pressure weather (clear and cold) usually produces a better
chimney draft than low pressure (overcast and damp) conditions. Negative pressure can be created inside
a home by appliances that expel air from within such as bathroom vents, range hoods, clothes dryers, and
forced air furnaces. Do not allow such appliances to overcome the natural draft. Note that newer homes
tend to be built more tightly allowing less make upair to seep freely in. Negative pressure may be overcome
by opening a nearby door or window. In extreme conditions of negative draft, the airow in the chimney will
reverse direction. This is known as “down drafting.”
2. Environmental Factor - Wind or air deecting off external objects such as the roof, neighboring structures,
trees, or hills. These can cause a pressure change in the air surrounding the chimney.
3. Chimney Temperature - The temperature of the chimney is an important factor in how well it drafts. Warm
chimneys draft better than cold chimneys. This is based upon the principle that hot air rises while cold air
sinks. Hot gases going up a cold chimney will cool rapidly. Warm the chimney by allowing a hot re to burn
for the rst fteen to thirty minutes after starting the re. Be careful not to over re the stove. If any part of the
stove or chimney starts to glow, you are over ring the stove. Masonry chimneys will take longer to warm than
manufactured chimneys on account of their greater structural mass. Chimneys that have a ue diameter
larger than the stove outlet take more heat to warm, thus resulting in a faster cooling of the hot gases
needed to build or maintain draft.
4. Chimney Installation and Maintenance - Conrm that all four minimum chimney height requirements listed
in the Chimney Connection section of the manual have been met. The physics that link chimney height
with draft creation are vital to the proper operation of the stove. Failure to meet each of these minimum
requirements will have an adverse affect on draft. Avoid long horizontal runs or multiple elbows. Use stove
cement to seal joints in the connector pipe section. Regularly clean the chimney, connector pipe, rain cap,
and spark arrestor screen. Creosote build up can reduce the chimney draw and possibly create a chimney
re.
5. Temporarily Out of Operation - After the re has burned out, open the air control to its fully open position.
This will allow warm room air to enter the chimney and keep it as warm as possible until the stove is used
again. For assistance involving chimney draft issues, contact a knowledgeable licensed heating and cooling
contractor in your area. For questions regarding manufactured chimney, contact the manufacturer of the
chimney.
NOTE: A DRAFT READING OF 0.05 TO 0.06 W.C. (WATER COLUMN) IS REQUIRED FOR PROPER BURNING OF THIS
STOVE.
AIR TUBES
The air tubes assembled in this unit are designed to provide an accurate mix of secondary air to insure the
highest efciency. Any damage or deterioration of these tubes may reduce the efciency of combustion. The
air tubes are held in position by either screws or snap pins. Locate these to either side of the tube and remove to
allow the tube to be removed and replaced.
CREOSOTE – FORMATION AND NEED FOR REMOVAL
Failure to remove creosote may result in ignition and may cause a house/building re. Creosote may be removed
using a chimney brush or other commonly available materials from your local hardware retailer. Chimney res
burn very hot. If the unit or chimney connector should glow red, reduce the re by closing the inlet air control
and immediately call the re department. A re in the rebox may be smothered by pouring a large quantity of
coarse salt, baking soda, or cool ashes on top of the re.
ASH DISPOSAL
Whenever ashes get 3 to 4 inches deep in your rebox or ash pan, and when the re has burned down and
cooled, remove excess ashes. Leave an ash bed approximately 1 inch deep on the rebox bottom to help
maintain a hot charcoal bed. Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight-tting lid. The closed
container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible oor or on the ground, away from all combustible
materials, pending nal disposal. The ashes should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have
thoroughly cooled.
Service Hints
Caution: A chimney re may cause ignition of wall studs or rafters which were assumed to be a safe distance
from the chimney. If a chimney re has occurred, have your chimney inspected by a qualied expert before
using again.

PREVENTING CREOSOTE BUILDUP
1. Creosote will inevitably form in your chimney and connector pipe. Following these steps will help reduce the
rate of build up.
2. BURN ONLY SEASONED WOOD that has dried for at least one year. (<20% humidity by weight)
3. Burn hardwood rather than softwood. Hardwood is denser or heavier wood and burns hotter.
4. Do not attempt to burn (or mix in) green or wet wood. The use of green or wet wood will cause a rapid build
up of creosote. Wood that hisses, sizzles and blackens without igniting in ve minutes must be considered too
wet to burn.
5. Do not attempt to extend the burn time by using wet wood. Not only does burning wet wood rapidly build
up creosote, but it reduces the heat output by up to 25 percent.
6. Burn the stove with the primary air inlet control wide open (pushed in) for 10-25 minutes every time fresh
wood is loaded into the stove. Do not load more than ¼ to ½ of the fuel capacity at one time. Loading too
much wood at once will cause excessive smoke which contains creosote. Mature res or coals produce very
little creosote-producing smoke.
7. Burn with the primary air control open (pushed in) for several minutes at numerous intervals throughout the
day, being careful not to over re the unit. Following this process will help to warm the chimney and reduce
the amount of creosote forming condensation within the chimney.
8. Establish a routine for the handling of fuel, ring, and operating the stove. Check daily for creosote build up
until experience shows how often you need to clean for safe operation. Be aware that the hotter the re,
the less creosote is deposited and weekly cleaning may be necessary in mild weather even though monthly
cleaning may be enough in the colder months.
SMOKE AND CO MONITORS
Burning wood naturally produces smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions. CO is a poisonous gas when
exposed to elevated concentrations for extended periods of time. While the modern combustion systems in
heaters drastically reduce the amount of CO emitted out the chimney, exposure to the gases in closed or conned
areas can be dangerous. Make sure your stove gaskets and chimney joints are in good working order and sealing
properly to ensure unintended exposure. It is recommended that you use both smoke and CO monitors in areas
having the potential to generate CO.
GLASS CARE
Periodic cleaning of glass will be necessary to prevent accumulations of ash. Acidic ash buildup can eventually
etch and weaken glass. Creosote accumulations should burn off during hot res. The following usage and safety
tips should be observed:
1. Inspect the glass regularly for cracks and breaks. If you detect a crack or break, extinguish the re immediately
and contact the manufacturer for a replacement before re-ring the stove.
2. Do not slam the door or otherwise impact the glass. When closing doors, make sure that logs or other objects
do not protrude to impact the glass.
3. Do not build res against (or that might fall against) the glass.
4. Do not clean the glass with materials that may scratch (or otherwise damage) the glass. Scratches on the
glass can develop into cracks or breaks during operation.
5. Never attempt to clean the glass while the unit is hot; allow to dry thoroughly before reuse. If deposits are not
very heavy, normal glass cleaners are adequate using a soft, non-abrasive cleaning pad.
6. Never put substances which can ignite explosively in the unit. Even small explosions in conned areas can
blow out the glass.
GLASS REPLACEMENT
Gasket and Glass cleaning products are available at local retail home centers. Manufacturers of cleaning
products include, A.W. Perkins Co. (www.awperkins. com) or Rutland Products (www.rutland.com). After extensive
use, the gasket material which provides glass and door seal may lose it’s resiliency and will need to be replaced.
Inspect glass and door gaskets periodically to ensure proper seal; if gaskets become frayed or worn, replace
immediately.
This wood heater needs periodic inspection and repair for proper operation. It is against federal regulations
to operate this wood heater in a manner inconsistent with operating instructions in this manual.
