Install vent at clearances specied by the vent

manufacturer. The chimney connector shall not pass

through an attic or roof space, closet or similar concealed

space, or oor, or ceiling. Where passage through a wall

or partition of combustible construction is desired, the

installation shall conform to CAN/CSA-B365, US-L vent

installation code for solid –fuel –burning appliances and

equipment. Exhaust vent required for residential installation

or mobile home installation (US only) is a listed type “L” or “PL” venting - 3”/76mm or 4”/102mm diameter. If

installed into a tightly constructed home, (Mobile Home) a fresh air opening of at least 2” (150mm) diameter

into the room where the unit is installed is required.

Attach and secure the exhaust venting system to the product and to each adjoining section. All joints for

connector pipe shall be required to be fastened with at least three screws. The area where the vent pipe

penetrates to the exterior of the home must be sealed with silicone or other means to maintain the vapor

barrier between the exterior and the interior of the home. Vent surfaces can get hot enough to cause burns

if touched. Noncombustible shielding or guards may be required.

This stove has no need for electricity, it operates with a natural

draft. The strength of the draft is determined by the height of its

chimney, and that’s why the chimney installation is the determining

factor on how well this stove will perform. This stove will operate

best with a straight chimney either 3” diameter or 4” diameter

with 8ft to 12ft overall height, although it will operate with many

variance’s of chimney height and congurations, they will all bring

varied results in burn time and fuel usage. A straight chimney is

always the best conguration for this pellet stove.

Install option one: When 8ft to 12ft length of chimney is used 3”

diameter chimney will do. When having to use more than 15ft of

chimney, then 4” diameter vent is best. Taller or longer chimney

system’s may need a barometric damper installed immediately

off the top of the stove to be able to control the stove down in

the 400 degree heat range as you can experience excessive draft

and the stove will want to run hotter. You can also adjust the bars

closer together on the burn basket to lower temp if it starts running

to hot.

A 4” diameter pipe is recommended if you decide to go through

the wall, and you need to terminate above the roof at least 24”

using pellet vent. When going into a existing chimney then you

must run 4” vent all the way through any existing chimney.

Mobile homes require outside air, use a

vent with a rigid or ex pipe connected

to the stove, and an outside screen

vent cap, the stove must be secured to

the oor, and grounded with a number

10 gauge wire.

Residential standard construction

requires fresh air source within 24”

of the stove. Follow all state and

local codes for outside air with a

solid fuel appliance.

Install option two: Use minimum 24 gauge single wall pipe in 4, 5 or 6 inch diameter when connecting to listed

factory built chimney. Use a 3-4, 3-5 or 3-6 inch increaser directly off the stove then connect to the required

length of pipe to reach the factory built chimney. A slip joint can be used to allow connection to the factory

built chimney or a plug can be inserted at the entry point of the factory built chimney. The connector pipe

shall pass through the plug a minimum of 4 inches or can pass through the entire length of the chimney. When

using this method install another properly sized plug at the top of the chimney and continue connector pipe

out and above the plug at least 2 inches. Install proper sized cap or in the event factory built cap is already

in place with spark arrester, the connector pipe can be terminated under the existing factory built cap.

When installing your stove, an all vertical stove pipe, straight up and through the roof is best. This will ensure

a good upward draft that all stoves need to operate. The more twists and turns you have in stove piping the

more it will restrict the draft. This is true for all stoves.

IMPORTANT: It is important for the stove pipe to extend to at least as high as the highest point of your roof.

Any reduction in clearance to combustibles may only be done by means approved by a regulatory authority.

Install vent at clearances specied by the vent manufacturer.

COMBUSTIBLE WALL CHIMNEY CONNECTOR PASS-THROUGHS

Method A. 12” (304.8mm) Clearance to Combustible

Wall Member: Using a minimum thickness 3.5” (89mm)

brick and a 5/8” (15.9mm) minimum wall thickness

clay liner, construct a wall pass-through. The clay liner

must conform to ASTM C315 (Standard Specication

for Clay Fire Linings) or its equivalent. Keep a minimum

of 12” (304.8mm) of brick masonry between the clay

liner and wall combustibles. The clay liner shall run

from the brick masonry outer surface to the inner

surface of the chimney ue liner but not past the

inner surface. Firmly grout or cement the clay liner in

place to the chimney ue liner.

Method B. 9” (228.6mm) Clearance to Combustible

Wall Member: Using a 6” (152.4mm) inside diameter,

listed, factory-built Solid-Pak chimney section with

insulation of 1” (25.4mm) or more, build a wall pass-

through with a minimum 9” (228.6mm) air space

between the outer wall of the chimney length and

wall combustibles. Use sheet metal supports fastened

securely to wall surfaces on all sides, to maintain the

9” (228.6mm) air space. When fastening supports

to chimney length, do not penetrate the chimney

liner (the inside wall of the Solid-Pak chimney). The

inner end of the Solid-Pak chimney section shall be

ush with the inside of the code-approved masonry

chimney with a ue liner ue, and sealed with a non-

water soluble refractory cement. Use this cement to

also seal to the brick masonry penetration.

Method C. 6” (152.4mm) Clearance to Combustible

Wall Member: Starting with a minimum 24 gauge

(.024” [.61mm]) 6” (152.4mm) metal chimney

connector, and a minimum 24 gauge ventilated wall

thimble which has two air channels of 1” (25.4mm)

each, construct a wall pass-through. There shall be a

minimum 6” (152.4mm) separation area containing

berglass insulation, from the outer surface of the wall

thimble to wall combustibles. Support the wall thimble,

and cover its opening with a 24-gauge minimum

sheet metal support. Maintain the 6” (152.4mm)

space. There should also be a support sized to t

and hold the metal chimney connector. See that the

supports are fastened securely to wall surfaces on all

sides. Make sure fasteners used to secure the metal

chimney connector do not penetrate chimney ue

liner.

Method D. 2” (50.8mm) Clearance to Combustible

Wall Member: Start with a solid-pak listed factory

built chimney section at least 12” (304mm) long,

with insulation of 1” (25.4 mm) or more, and an

inside diameter of 8” (2 inches [51mm] larger than

the 6” [152.4mm] chimney connector). Use this as

a pass-through for a minimum 24-gauge single wall

steel chimney connector. Keep solid-pak section

concentric with and spaced 1” (25.4mm) off the

chimney connector by way of sheet metal support

plates at both ends of chimney section. Cover

opening with and support chimney section on both

sides with 24 gauge minimum sheet metal supports.

See that the supports are fastened securely to wall

surfaces on all sides. Make sure fasteners used to

secure chimney ue do not penetrate ue liner.

NOTES: Connectors to a code-approved masonry

chimney with a ue liner, excepting method B, shall

extend in one continuous section through the wall

pass-through system and the chimney wall, to but not

past the inner ue liner face. A chimney connector

shall not pass through an attic or roof space, closet or

similar concealed space, or a oor, or ceiling.

• Have your stove and chimney system installed by a certied stove installer or licensed contractor.

• All installations must meet local codes.

• Install option 1: Use 3”-4” listed L vent pellet pipe -or- Install option 2: Use 4, 5, or 6 inch class A 103 HT

chimney system. Note: Do not mix use of chimney systems during installation. Use 1 system type throughout

the installation.

• Use a minimum of 24 gauge, 4 inch or larger connector pipe with the class A 103 HT chimney system (install

option 2).

• This is a wood stove that burns wood pellet fuel. This means natural draft is running the stove. It must be

treated as a wood stove with the pipe installation being as vertical as possible to obtain maximum upward

draft.

• Horizontal runs and elbows are discouraged.

• Do not install a manual ue damper in the exhaust vent.

DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.

Chimney connector must be in good condition and kept clean. The chimney connector and chimney should

be inspected by a qualied person annually or per ton of pellets to determine if a creosote or y ash build-up

has occurred. If creosote has accumulated, it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney re. Inspect

the system at the stove connection and at the chimney top. Cooler surfaces tend to build creosote deposits

quicker, so it is important to check the chimney from the top as well as from the bottom. The creosote should

be removed with a brush specically designed for the type of chimney in use. A qualied chimney sweep

can perform this service. It is also recommended that before each heating season the entire system be

professionally inspected, cleaned and, if necessary, repaired. To clean the chimney, disconnect the vent from

the stove. Exhaust venting system termination requirements, including location restrictions: relationships to air

inlets, distance from windows, doors, air inlets, and distance to combustible materials MUST BE MAINTAINED

AT ALL TIMES.

For residential use Install only with a chimney complying with the requirements for class A 103 HT chimneys in

the standard for chimneys, Factory built, residential type and building heating appliance.

Stove is also Mobile home approved in the U.S. but not in Canada. Mobile home installation also requires that

a direct outside air kit be installed and the stove be bolted or fastened to the oor and a #10 copper wire be

attached to the stove and then attached to the frame of the manufactured home to ground the stove. Only

approved pellet vent can be used. No single wall connector pipe is allowed in a Mobile Home. For mobile

home use (US ONLY) Install with class A 103 HT chimney using 4, 5 or 6 inch diameter with ceiling trim plate,

attic insulation shield, ashing, storm collar and cap. 4, 5 or 6 inch dual wall connector pipe can be used to

chimney.

When this room heater is not properly installed, a house re may result. To reduce the risk of re, follow the

installation instructions. Contact local building or re ofcials about restrictions and installation inspection

requirements in your area.

For basement use, Install only with a chimney complying with the requirements for class A 103 HT chimneys in

the standard for chimneys, Factory built, residential type and building heating appliance Outside air source

must be supplied.

DO NOT CONNECT TO OR USE IN CONJUNCTION WITH ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCT WORK UNLESS SPECIFICALLY

APPROVED FOR SUCH INSTALLATION.

Taller or longer chimney system’s may need a barometric damper installed immediately off the top of the

stove to be able to control the stove down in the 400° range as you can experience excessive draft and the

stove will want to run hotter.

ALL PELLET FUELS ARE NOT CREATED EQUAL!

It is recommend to not buy pellet fuel in bulk until experience has

revealed the best pellet fuel available in your area.

• The stove was developed to burn pelletized wood fuel only! Pellets

1/4” (6.35mm) diameter and approximately 1” (25.4) long should

be used.

• Burning fuels other than wood pelletized fuel is not permitted.

• This stove feeds pellets at a preset rate. Adding fuel by hand or

burning fuel other than pellets will not increase the heat output

and could impair the stove performance.

• DO NOT block the fresh air intake ports – this will seriously affect the

performance of the stove.

• DO NOT try to burn wet pellets or pellets that were previously

opened and have been stored in the elements. Pellets that are

stored in the elements are prone to absorbing moisture resulting in

poor performance from the stove. Storing opened pellets indoors

or in an air tight container is recommended.

• Store pellet fuel in a dry area.

• Stove performance not only depends on the quality of the pipe

installation but also on the quality of the pellet fuel introduced

to the stove. Avoid the use of pellets with excess nes, binders or

high ash content. ONLY USE PREMIUM GRADE PELLETS WITH AN ASH

CONTENT OF .5% OR LESS.

• DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE FLUIDS SUCH AS GASOLINE, NAPHTHA, ENGINE OIL OR ANY OTHER

SUBSTITUTE MATERIALS.

• HOT WHILE IN OPERATION KEEP CHILDREN, CLOTHING AND FURNITURE AWAY. CONTACT MAY CAUSE SKIN

BURNS.

DO NOT STORE PELLET FUEL WITHIN SPACE HEATER INSTALLATION CLEARANCES OR WITHIN THE SPACE REQUIRED

FOR CHARGING AND ASH REMOVAL.

This appliance should only burn pellets graded as standard through an EPA-authorized graded fuel program

such as the PFI (Pellet Fuels Institute) Standards Program after May 16, 2015.

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.

Using The Correct Fuel

VENTILATION

Adequate ventilation air is required to operate this heater. During operation, the heater draws air for

combustion which can be assisted by the installation of outside combustion air inlets. However, certain

weather conditions such as icing or use of kitchen exhaust fans may impact and reduce the effectiveness

of vents. It is important to note that room air starvation will negatively impact the operation of the heater.

Depending on your location and home construction, outside air may be necessary for optimal performance

Below is a list of possible indicators that a source of outside combustion air may be required.

1. Your stove does not draw steadily, smoke rollout occurs, wood burns poorly, or back-drafts occur whether

or not there is combustion present.

2. Existing fuel-red equipment in the house, such as replaces or other heating appliances, smell, do

not operate properly, suffer smoke roll-out when opened, or back-drafts occur whether or not there is

combustion present.

3. Opening a window slightly on a calm (windless) day alleviates any of the above symptoms.

4. The house is equipped with a well-sealed vapor barrier and tight tting windows and/or has any powered

devices that exhaust house air.

5. There is excessive condensation on windows in the winter.

6. A ventilation system is installed in the house.

INSTALLATION

• Have your stove installed by a certied chimney installer or licensed contractor. Do not make changes to

the draft recommendations during the installation of the chimney or stove. This is a stove that burns pellet

fuel, if adequate draft is not accomplished this stove will not operate properly and can potentially cause

smoke to come from the stove. If draft is compromised, it can drastically impede the performance of the

stove, especially when using hardwood pellet fuel.

• Long horizontal chimney runs will impede draft and cause poor performance of this stove.

• Basement installations and air tight houses will require an outside air source.

PERFORMANCE

• Use premium pellets that contain .5% or less ash content. Pellet quality and performance will vary from

brand to brand. Experiment with different brand pellets.

• Learn your stove! This stove has no moving parts and requires no electricity; it does however require

your attention much like a wood stove, especially when burning a hardwood pellet. CLEARING YOUR

SECONDARY BURN PLATE IS A MUST WHILE BURNING HARDWOOD PELLETS. This is simple. NOTE: surfaces will

be hot.

• First, remove the ashtray and dispose of any ashes as previously described, and reinstall ashtray.

• Second, remove secondary burn plate. This will allow any built up ashes and hot coals to fall into the

ashtray. Inspect the secondary burn plate, any layers of ash should be removed and discarded. Lightly tap

the secondary burn plate on the edge of your disposal container to clear any clogged hole(s) in the burn

plate. This will resume proper air ow through the burn plate; reinstall the secondary burn plate.

• Considering the numerous different fuels and installations, there is no one formula for how often this needs

to be performed. Letting the secondary burn plate build up with ashes can choke the stove causing a

decrease in temperature and increase the possibility of smouldering fuel and smoke.

• Until experience has helped you establish a regular routine it is not recommended to leave the stove

unattended for long periods of time. ALWAYS EMPTY THE ASHTRAY AND CLEAR THE SECONDARY BURN

PLATE PRIOR TO LEAVING THE STOVE UNATTENDED!

QUESTIONS

If you have questions, additional needs, or encounter problems, please contact the Dealer where you made

your purchase. This is the quickest remedy to whatever challenges you might encounter. If your Dealer cannot

help you, they will contact their Distributor.

Helpful Hints

You will need a handheld propane torch to ignite your stove. We recommend a high quality torch with a

squeeze trigger ignition system. DO NOT USE CHEMICALS OR FLUIDS TO START THE FIRE.

1. Make sure the pellet feed door is in the closed position, this is the external knob located on the front of

the hopper. All the way down indicates closed.

2. Remove hopper lid and add desired amount of pellets.

3. Make sure front damper slide is in the closed position, holes should be blocked.

4. Inspect primary burn chamber, secondary burn plate and ashtray for soot build up and cleanliness.

Perform any maintenance required.

5. Reinstall primary burn chamber, secondary burn plate and ashtray.

6. Remove the primary chamber end slide (the top handle).

7. Light the torch and insert into primary burn chamber. Let the torch run for approximately one minute. This

will start the necessary draft and speed the ignition process.

8. Slide the feed to the all the way open position (the knob should now be at the top of the slot).

9. Let the torch run till the stove reaches 200 degrees (this should only take approximately 5 minutes

depending on the type of fuel).

10. Remove, turn off and store your torch.

11. Keep the primary slide cover off until the stove reaches approximately 400 degrees.

You will need a 120 volt industrial heat gun available at most hardware stores.

DO NOT USE CHEMICALS OR FLUIDS TO START THE FIRE.

1. Follow steps 1-6 of the lighting with a handheld

propane torch instruction.

2. Plug in and turn on heat gun to the high setting

then insert heat gun.

3. Let heat gun run for 30 seconds.

4. Open the pellet feed door.

5. Ignition of the pellets will take approximately

one minute. You will hear a “whoosh” when the

pellets ignite.

6. Turn heat gun down to the low setting and

continue to run until the stove reaches 400

degrees, this will happen rapidly after ignition of

the pellets.

7. Remove, turn off and store your heat gun.

8. Reinstall the primary chamber end slide.

OPEN

Because the damper slide is located behind the combustion

chamber, adjusting the temperature is the opposite of a

traditional wood stove.

To adjust the damper slide: turn handle counter clockwise one

half turn then slide to the desired position and retighten.

The open position will reduce the draft and slow the stove down

much like a crack in a drinking straw.

Closing the damper will increase higher temperatures and heat

output.

SHUTTING DOWN THE STOVE

When you are ready to shut your stove down simply close the

pellet feed door (move to the down position).

After you have closed the pellet feed door the stove will continue

to run for approximately 45 minutes.

When shutting down the stove make sure to close the draft slide

(holes blocked).

Lighting With A Heat Gun

Controlling The Temperature

CAUTION: Do not over loosen the damper slide handle! This

may cause the handle to separate from the damper plate.

After your stove is installed and ready for use there will be a period of time

where some adjustments may be necessary to t your specic needs from

the stove. We like to refer to this as “getting to know your stove”. Each stove

demonstrates its own unique personality based upon; type of pellet fuel,

elevation, square footage you are heating, barometric pressures, common

wind currents, natural drafts within your home to name a few.

Specically this means learning how often you will need to dump ashes,

clear the secondary burn plate, experiment with different brand pellets and

determining what position the damper slide needs to be in to get your specic

desired results. After you have become familiar with the stove it is possible that

you may need to adjust the primary burn cage.

The primary burn basket that comes with every stove is sent out at a preset

measurement. This measurement ts most applications but sometimes a user

will need to make an adjustment. This is simple to perform; we nd the best tools

for widening the basket is two chisels. For narrowing the spacing use a pair of

pliers.

The three black arrows indicate the three spaces where pellets drop through

the basket and on to the secondary burn plate. The minimum spacing should not be adjusted to less than

.290, or on a tape measure the closest mark would be just under the 19/64”mark. The maximum adjustment

should not exceed .320, or just over the 5/16” mark on a tape measure. Only make small adjustments at a

time as you will discover a small adjustment can result in a drastic temperature change. Narrowing will slow

the pellet feed rate resulting in lower running temperature. Widening will result in an increased pellet feed

rate resulting in a higher running temperature.

Tuning Your Stove

Mobile Home Installation (US ONLY)

Mobile home installation should be done in accordance with the Manufactured Home and Safety Standard

(HUD), CFR 3280, Part 24. Canadian installations require that the heater must be connected to a 3 or 4 inch,

factory-built chimney conforming to CAN/ULC-S629. See the installation illustrations in this manual for minimum

height above the roof. The chimney installation must allow for removal in case of mobile home transportation,

especially outside connections. You may contact your local building authority or person having jurisdiction

on height restrictions. Securely fasten this stove to the oor by screwing 1/4” lag bolts up through the oor into

the leg levelling holes.

CAUTION: The structural integrity of the manufactured home

oor, wall, and ceiling/roof must be maintained. Make sure

to maintain an effective vapor barrier by sealing with silicone

where the chimney or other components penetrate to the

exterior of the structure. Refer to and follow the chimney

manufacturer’s installation instructions.

WARNING: Do not install in sleeping room.

WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE STOVE WHILE RUNNING OR HOT!

Establish a routine for the fuel, the burner, and the ring technique. Check daily for creosote build-up until

experience shows how often cleaning is needed to be safe. Be aware, hotter the re the less creosote is

deposited so weekly cleaning may be necessary during colder weather; however, monthly cleanings may

be enough during warmer months.

CLEANING

It is very important to thoroughly clean

the y ash out of this unit weekly. The

window will need to be remove to

properly clean the y ash out of the

unit. Steps for removing the y ash are

as listed:

1. Allow the unit to cool completely.

2. Remove the 5/16” diameter pin

on the right side of the window as

shown

3. Lift up on the window frame to

disengage the left side of the

window as shown.

Note: When removing the window be

very careful to hold both the glass and

the frame.

4. Vacuum the cooled ash out of

the unit. Be sure to vacuum both

upstream and downstream of

the window opening. Note: All

vacuuming must be performed

using an ash vac.

5. Remove the burn pot and vacuum

out the burn pot chamber.

6. When nished cleaning the ashes

reinstall the window and burn pot.

WARNING: Never burn this unit with

a broken or missing glass.

CREOSOTE–FORMATION AND NEED FOR REMOVAL

When solid fuel is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors and these combine with expelled

moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney ue associated with

a slow burning re. As a result, creosote reside accumulates on the ue lining. When ignited, this creosote

can result in an extremely hot re; the chimney should be inspected periodically during the heating season

to determine if a creosote build-up has occurred. If a signicant layer of creosote has accumulated (3mm or

more) it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney re. Contact your local municipal or provincial

re authority for information on how to handle a chimney re. Have a clear understood plan to handle a

chimney re.

DISPOSAL OF ASHES

Ashes should be placed in a steel container with a tight tting lid. The closed container of ashes should be

placed on a noncombustible oor or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials, pending nal

disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in

the closed container until all cinders have been thoroughly cooled.

SOOT AND FLY ASH: FORMATION AND NEED FOR REMOVAL

The products of combustion will contain small particles of y ash. The y ash will collect in the exhaust venting

system and restrict the ow of the ue gases. Incomplete combustion occurs during startup, shutdown, or

incorrect operation of the room heater and will lead to some soot formation which will collect in the exhaust

venting system. The exhaust venting system should be inspected at least once every year to determine if

cleaning is necessary.

Cleaning And Maintenance

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 back puf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. Take into account the chimney’s location to ensure it is not too close to neighbours

or in a valley which may cause unhealthy or nuisance conditions.

TAMPER WARNING

This wood heater has a manufacturer-set minimum 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.

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.

OVER FIRING

Attempts to achieve heat output rates that exceed heater design specications can result in permanent

damage to the heater.

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 you 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. A working smoke detector must be installed in

the same room as this product. Install a smoke detector on each oor of your home; incase of accidental re

from any cause it can provide time for escape. The smoke detector must be installed at least 15 feet (4,57 M)

from the appliance in order to prevent undue triggering of the detector when reloading.

DOOR AND GLASS GASKETS

Inspect the door and glass window gaskets periodically. The door may need to be removed to have frayed,

broken, or compacted gaskets replaced by your authorized dealer. This unit’s door uses a 0.125 x 1” at

gasket. Inspect and clean the secondary burn plate, primary burn basket, primary burn tube and ashtray

prior to igniting the stove. Do not operate your stove with the viewing door open, safety concern may arise.

The feed door must be closed and sealed during operation.

GET TO KNOW YOUR STOVE

Experience will determine how often you need to clear the secondary burn plate and ashtray while the stove

is in operation. Experience will determine how often the heat exchanger needs to be cleared of ash build up

(DO NOT ATTEMPT WHILE THE STOVE IS IN OPERATION). HINT –You will be able to see any ash build up in the

heat exchanger by moving the draft slide to the all the way open position. A shop vacuum works well for heat

exchanger ash removal.

NOTE: Failure to keep a clean burn chamber or secondary burn plate can result in poor stove performance.

Cleaning And Maintenance

WARNING: Dropping or striking the glass with a hard object can result in breaking the glass, care should be

taking when removing, replacing or cleaning glass. Never operate with broken or cracked glass.

WARNING: Abrasive cleaners can cause damage to glass.

WARNING: Do not attempt to clean surfaces while hot or in operation.

Helpful Hints For Running Your Stove

NOTE: Letting ash build up into the primary burn basket can cause choking of the stove and increase the risk

of smouldering fuel and or smoke spillage.

Cleaning the window is simple; simply remove the hinge pin located on the right side of the window frame by

pushing the pin up and out. The window frame will now swing open. Use caution as glass will now be loose.

Perform necessary cleaning and reinstall.

NOTE: There are cleaning products available at your local stove dealer specically for cleaning stove glass.

DO NOT USE SUBSTITUTE MATERIALS WHEN REPLACING GLASS.

NOTE: It may be necessary to replace the gasket rope wrapped around the glass. When damaged or worn,

a poor seal around the glass will result in lower performance or temperatures.

• Gasket material specication: 3/4” x 1/8” at gasket.

• Replacement glass specications: 3”W x 10”L x 1/4” Thickness –Neoceram.

• Adequate hand protection should be worn.

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.

• When the stove is not in use take the opportunity to inspect and perform any cleaning or maintenance of

the primary burn tube, secondary burn plate and ashtray.

• Keep foreign debris out of the hopper.

• Starting the draft by letting the hand held torch run for one minute before introducing pellets is highly

recommended. When the stove is cold and it is colder outside than it is inside, there is a downward draft

in the chimney. Running the torch for one minute rst will overcome this downward draft that is present.

• This stove was developed using Douglas Fir pellet fuel. If Douglas Fir pellet fuel is available in your area they

are highly recommended.

• If smoke becomes present during ignition, reposition the torch head so the ame is burning across the

bottom of the burn basket not directly on it.

• Installing the stove pipe straight up is highly recommended. This will ensure a good upward draft that all

wood stoves need to operate. Elbows and horizontal runs restrict draft.

• The secondary burn plate can be slid out up to one inch to provide maximum air ow during operation.

• While operating the stove on low (damper holes open) the temperature gauge should never fall below

300 degrees. Two things happen when the stove falls below 300 degrees. 1) The draft will slow down

enough to impede the performance of the stove. 2) Creosote will build up causing poor performance and

increase the risk of a ue re.

• WHEN INSTALLING IN A BASEMENT FRESH AIR MUST BE PRESENT! There are negative pressures present in most

basements that can disrupt draft.

• Operating the stove in a basement with the basement door open is discouraged. When an appliance with

any sort of fan is used or a window opens or a door opens upstairs it causes a sudden rush of air to escape

from the basement having a negative affect on the stove.

• If it was necessary to adjust the primary burn basket wider, it may be necessary to clear the secondary

burn plate more often during operation.

• Barometric damper will help solve problems when stove is experiencing constant high heat output.

Barometric gives the user the ability to regulate draft through the chimney until desired temperatures are

established on the appliance it has been installed on.

• A VacuStack chimney cap are recommended when experiencing draft issues or uctuating temperatures

or low heat output. VacuStack caps are designed to increase draft on any chimney by causing a vacuum

effect through the ue below when the air moves past the cap.

• CAUTION: In high wind areas, excessive draft can be experienced resulting in extended high temperature

output on the stove. We recommend a barometric damper be installed when this occurs which gives you

the ability to control the excessive draft created by the vacustack and persistent wind currents above.

• Remedies for those that experience a temperature drop after several hours of operation: First, dump the

ashtray and properly dispose of ashes as described in this manual. Second, clear the secondary burn

plate as described in this manual. If this does not bring the temperature back up then close the pellet stop

plate for approximately 35 minutes running the stove on high. Reopen the pellet stop plate. This clears the

vertical feed tube of any pre-heated pellets and reintroduces fresh pellet fuel.
