• Do not store wood on floor protector, underneath stovepipe(s) if applicable, or anywhere within clearances

to combustible surfaces specified for this appliance.

• Never operate with secondary tubes, fiber board, or insulation removed.

• Never overfire this appliance by building excessively hot fires as a house/building fire may result. You are

overfiring the appliance if it begins to glow or turn red.

• Never build excessively large fires in this type of appliance as damage to the firebox or smoke leakage may

result.

• Do not build fire too close to glass.

• Hot while in operation. Keep children, clothing, and furniture away. Contact may cause skins burns. Do not

touch the appliance until it has cooled.

• Provide adequate air for combustion to the room where the appliance is installed.

• Inspect chimney liner every 60 days. Replace liner immediately if it is rusting or leaking smoke into the room.

• Attempts to achieve heat output rates that exceed heater design specifications can result in permanent

damage to the heater.

• Never use chemicals, gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar

flammable liquids to start or "freshen up" a fire in the appliance.

• Keep all flammable liquids, especially gasoline, out of the vicinity of the appliance - whether in use or in

storage.

WOOD STOVE UTILIZATION

The operation of this wood heater in a manner inconsistent with the owner's manual will void your warranty and is

also against federal regulations. This heater is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher efficiencies and lower

emissions generally result when burning air dried seasoned hardwoods, as compared to softwoods or too green

or freshly cut hardwoods.

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;

Burning these materials may result in the release of toxic fumes or render the heater ineffective and cause smoke.

Deadwood lying on the forest floor should be considered wet and requires full seasoning time. Standing deadwood

can usually be considered to be about 2/3 seasoned. Splitting and stacking wood before it is stored accelerates

the drying time. Storing wood on an elevated surface from the ground and under a cover or covered area from

rain or snow also accelerates the drying time. A good indicator of if the wood is ready to burn is to check the

piece ends. If cracks are radiating in all directions from the center then the wood should be dry enough to burn.

If your wood sizzles in the fire, even though the surface is dry, it may not be fully cured and should be seasoned

longer.

Do not burn manufactured logs made of wax impregnated sawdust or logs with any

chemical additives. Manufactured logs made of 100% compressed sawdust can be

burned, but be careful burning too much of these logs at the same time. Start with one

manufactured log and see how the stove reacts. You can increase the number of logs

burned at a time but make sure the temperature never rises higher than 475°F (246°C) on

a magnetic thermometer for installation on single wall stove pipes or 900°F (482°C) on a

probe thermometer for installation on double wall stove pipe. The thermometer should be

placed about 18" (457 mm) above the stove. Higher temperatures can lead to overheat

and damage your stove.
