INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS cont.
COMBUSTION AIR
Insure adequate combustion air allowing for all other exhausting type appliances in the dwelling (range hoods,
dryers, etc.). In airtight houses it is recommended to install a fresh air inlet into the room where the stove is
located, to prevent air starvation.
DRAFT
Dra in the chimney system is initiated by the air pressure di erence between the top and bottom of the
chimney. Heat generated within the rebox will rise and accelerate the dra in the chimney. Recommended
dra is .05 in. w.c. operated on high. Too little dra results in a sluggish re and smoke spillage into the room
when the stove door is opened. Too much dra (over 0.06 in. w.c.) makes it unsafe to operate the stove and will
void manufacturers warranty. Use a key damper if necessary to avoid excessive dra .
VENTING SYSTEMS
e venting system consists of a chimney connector and a chimney. ese get extremely hot during use.
Temperatures inside the chimney may exceed 2000 degrees in the event of a creosote re. To protect against the
possibility of a house re, the chimney connector and chimney must be properly installed and maintained. A
listed thimble must be used when a connection is made through a combustible wall to a chimney. A chimney
support package must be used when a connection is made through the ceiling to a listed prefabricated chimney.
ese accessories are absolutely necessary to provide safe clearances to combustible wall and ceiling material.
is stove may be connected to a lined masonry chimney or a listed factory built chimney suitable for use with
solid fuels and conforming to, ULC629 in Canada or UL-103HT in the USA. Do not connect it to a chimney
serving another appliance. To do so will a ect the safe operation of both appliances, and will void the stove
warranty. You must comply with the local authority having jurisdiction and/or in Canada, CSA installation
standard B365-M87.
e chimney connector must be 6” diameter, 24 MSG Black/Blue steel. Do not use aluminum or galvanized
steel. ey cannot properly withstand the extreme temperatures of a wood re. e chimney connector between
the stove and the chimney should be as short and direct as possible. Blaze King recommends the use of double
wall pipe and two 45° elbows instead of a single 90° elbow. A minimum 36” rise is recommended prior to any
elbows being used.
e chimney connector must be attached to either an approved masonry chimney or one of the listed factory
built chimneys suitable for use with solid wood fuel. All joints must be tight and fastened with sheet metal
screws.
THE CHIMNEY CONNECTOR IS TO BE USED ONLY WITHIN THE ROOM, BETWEEN THE STOVE
AND CEILING / WALL. NEVER USE A CHIMNEY CONNECTOR TO PASS THROUGH AN ATTIC
OR ROOF SPACE, CLOSET OR SIMILAR CONCEALED SPACE, OR A FLOOR, OR CEILING. AN
EFFECTIVE VAPOUR BARRIER MUST BE MAINTAINED AT THE LOCATION WHERE THE CHIMNEY
OR COMPONENT PENETRATES TO THE EXTERIOR OF THE STRUCTURE. ALWAYS MAINTAIN
THE MINIMUM CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES AS REQUIRED BY THE APPLICABLE BUILDING
CODES.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS cont.
CONNECTION TO A METAL PREFABRICATED CHIMNEY
When a metal prefabricated chimney is used, the manufacturer’s installation instructions must be followed
precisely. You must also purchase (from the same manufacturer) and install the ceiling support package or wall
pass through and “T” section package, re stops (when needed), insulation shield, roof ashing, chimney cap,
etc. Maintain the proper clearance to the structure as recommended by the manufacturer. is clearance is
usually a minimum of 2 inches, although it may vary by manufacturer or for certain components.
ere are basically two methods of metal chimney installation. One method is to install the chimney inside the
residence through the ceiling(s) and the roof. e other method is to install an exterior chimney that runs up
the outside of the residence (not recommended). If it is necessary to run the chimney outside, build an outside
chase around the chimney.
e chimney must be the required height above the roof or other obstruction for safety and for proper dra
operation. e requirement is that the chimney must be at least 3 feet higher than the highest point where it
passes through the roof and at least 2 feet higher than
the highest part of the roof or structure that is within
10 feet of the chimney, measured horizontally (Fig. 1).
e height requirement is necessary in the interest of
safety and does not necessarily assure proper ue dra .
Use a minimum total system height of 12 feet, measured
from the stove ue collar to the top of the chimney, not
including the chimney cap.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS cont.
CONNECTION TO A MASONRY CHIMNEY
Masonry chimney***
Ensure that a masonry chimney meets the minimum
standards (NFPA) by having it inspected by a
professional. Make sure there are no cracks, loose
mortar or other signs of deterioration and blockage.
Have the chimney cleaned before the stove is
installed and operated. When connecting the stove
through a combustible wall to a masonry chimney,
special methods are needed.
In Canada, the wall cut away is to provide 18”
clearance for the connector. e resulting space
must remain empty. A ush mounted sheet metal
cover may be used on one side only. If covers are to
be used on both sides, each cover must be mounted
on noncombustible spacers at least 1” clear of the
wall.
SC30.1
***Blaze King recommends the use of a Stainless
steel liner, preferably insulated, inside a masonry
chimney. is to maintain proper dra and overall
better operation of the unit.
Your local dealer or local jurisdiction can provide details of approved methods of passing a chimney connector
through a combustible wall in your area. In USA, the National Fire Protection Association has minimum
standards to comply with. In Canada , this type of installation must conform to CAN/CSA-B365, Installation
Code for Solid Fuel Burning Appliances and Equipment.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
YOUR FIRST FIRE!
e following pages contain information on the major components and operation of your stove. Please take time
to read about them as it will give you a better understanding of how your stove works. is understanding will
help you to operate your stove properly thus will extend the life of your stove and allow you to get the highest
e ciencies from your stove.
BYPASS
COMBUSTOR
Most catalytic wood burning appliances have a bypass device to
allow the smoke from the re to temporarily bypass, or go around,
the catalytic combustor. e bypass door is located inside the
rebox at the top of the stove. e bypass is a steel plate door,
hinged inside the stove, and is controlled by the bypass handle on
FLAME
SHIELD
the right side of the stove. When the handle is pointing at you,
the bypass is open, when
pointing away, it is closed.
It is a clockwise rotation
from open to close.
CATALYTIC THERMOMETER
is thermometer is located on the top of the stove. It’s purpose is to show you if the
combustor is active. Always burn the stove in the “active” zone. When the combustor is not
active the stove will emit smoke and will not be e cient. For an accurate reading, turn fans
o for approximately 10 minutes and then read the thermometer.
BYPAS
DOOR
S
THERMOSTAT
e thermostat knob is located on the top right rear corner of the stove. It controls the burn rate of the stove
Any thermostat position between LOW(thin line) and HIGH(wide line) will produce the desired clean burning
characteristics. However, since each installation is di erent, you may nd it necessary to operate the thermostat
to suit your situation. A HIGH(wide line) thermostat setting will produce maximum heat which is more than
suitable for heating the average size home. All adjustments to the thermostat should be done gradually. When
you rst light the stove set the thermostat to HIGH(wide line) setting for 20-30 minutes, or until the re is well
established, then turn the thermostat to the desired setting. Once the re is established turn the thermostat to
MED(middle of line) for 5 minutes and then to a LOW(thin line) setting if desired. Too rapid an adjustment
may cause the stove to operate improperly. e most common mistake new owners make is continually
adjusting the thermostat.

SELECTING WOOD
• THIS APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED TO BURN NATURAL WOOD ONLY. DO NOT BURN
TREATED WOOD, COAL, CHARCOAL, COLOURED PAPER, CARDBOARD, SOLVENTS
OR GARBAGE.
• HIGHER EFFICIENCIES AND LOWER EMISSIONS GENERALLY RESULT WHEN
BURNING AIR DRIED SEASONED HARDWOODS, AS COMPARED TO SOFT WOODS OR
TOO GREEN OR FRESHLY CUT WOODS.
• BURNING WET UNSEASONED WOOD CAN CAUSE EXCESSIVE CREOSOTE
ACCUMULATION. WHEN IGNITED IT CAN CAUSE A CHIMNEY FIRE THAT MAY RESULT
IN A SERIOUS HOUSE FIRE.
Use dry seasoned wood, split and stacked and protected from rain for at least 24 months with a moisture content
of 13% or lower. It takes a great deal of energy to evaporate the moisture contained in green wood and that
energy will not be heating your house. Also, green or wet wood will greatly increase creosote problems. e
only accurate method to determine moisture content in wood is to use a moisture meter.
Never burn salt-water dri wood. It is very corrosive and will damage the rebox. Burning salty wood also voids
the warranty.
is controlled combustion rebox has been designed for high e ciency and long burn times. e proper time
to add more wood is when the last charge has been reduced to a glowing charcoal bed. ere will be very little
smoke at this stage in the burn cycle.
Both hardwood and so wood burn equally well in this appliance but hardwood, which is denser, will weigh
more per cord and burn a little slower and longer.
Firewood should be split and stacked in a manner that air can get to all parts of it and covered in early spring to
be ready for burning that fall.
The only accurate way to determine wood moisture is to purchase a moisture meter.
• NEVER START A FIRE UNLESS ALL BRICKS ARE CORRECTLY PLACED INSIDE THE
FIREBOX. CHECK THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY.
• ALWAYS OPEN THE BYPASS DOOR BEFORE OPENING THE LOADING DOOR.
• ONCE THE LOADING DOOR IS CLOSED, CLOSE THE BYPASS DOOR DIRECTLY
AFTER.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS cont.
LIGHTING THE FIRE
NOTE: As you heat up the stove for the rst time, the paint will go through a curing process and will give o
an odor. To minimize the inconvenience, burn the stove at a low temperature setting for several hours. It is
advisable to open a door or window until the odor dissipates. You may also notice a change in color as the paint
cures, this is normal and will appear uniform a er subsequent rings.
1. DO NOT USE A GRATE. BUILD THE FIRE DIRECTLY ON THE BRICK IN THE BOTTOM
OF THE STOVE.
2. Set the thermostat to HIGH (maximum) position.
3. Open the loading door and open the by-pass door (pull handle towards front of stove).
4. Place ve to ten balls of non-glossy paper in the rebox and place a fairly large quantity (15-20) pieces of
kindling on top of the paper.
5. Lay two or three medium size (approx. 3”) pieces of wood on top of the kindling. Light the re and allow
it to get a good start but DO NOT LEAVE THE STOVE UNATTENDED.
6. Keep the loading door closed over but not latched. Allow the kindling and most of the larger logs to get
started before latching the loading door. When the re has the larger pieces of wood burning, close and
latch the loading door, but leave the by-pass door open. Turning down the thermostat too soon may
cause a new re to go out. DO NOT leave your BLAZE KING unattended when the loading door is not
tightly closed or the bypass door is open. Leaving the loading door open a er the re is well started may
cause premature failure of the catalytic combustor.
7. When nearly all the wood in the rebox is burning , nish loading the stove. Lay the wood as far to the
back of the stove as possible. A er the loading door is closed and the catalytic thermometer is in the
active zone, close the bypass door.
8. Let the re burn on a higher setting (on the thermostat) for 20-30 minutes, or until the re is well
established, then turn the thermostat to the desired setting. It is good burning practice to burn the stove
on high for 20-30 mins a er every refueling, this will help in cleaning o any residual build-ups and
lessen the chance of accumulation.
Probably the least understood requirement in maintaining a good re is that of establishing a good base of coals.
A good bed of hot coals will maintain a more even temperature as well as getting the new load of wood started
easily.
Put as much fuel into the stove as it will hold. Don’t be afraid to ll it completely. With the Blaze King automatic
thermostat, the wood will only burn at the rate set on the thermostat.
Once the full load is established, the stove should be le to complete the full burn cycle. is is evident by either
a coal bed remaining or the catalyst’s thermometer hovers in the area between active and inactive zone. is
procedure will maximize the e ciency of the combustor as well as limit chimney emissions and smoke spillage.
DO NOT USE THE APPLIANCE WITHOUT A COMBUSTOR

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS cont.
RELOADING PROCEDURE (with the catalyst temperature in the active zone)
1. Have your next intended load of wood ready before opening the loading door.
2. Turn the thermostat to the highest setting, wait a couple of minutes for the air ow to stabilize.
3. Pull the bypass lever towards the front of the stove to the open position. Again wait a couple of minutes for
the air ow to stablize.
4. Unlatch the loading door but do not open fully, allow the introduced ambient room air to be introduced to
the rebox.
5. Slowly open the loading door and proceed to re ll the rebox. If you experience excessive smoke spillage,
close the door temporarily to allow dra to re-establish.
6. Latch the door, return the bypass to the closed position (towards the rear of the stove)
7. Run the stove on the hightest thermostat setting for 20-30 mins.
8. Adjust the thermostat to the desired comfort level, keep in mind you may not see a large amount of ame
activity in the lower thermostat setting, the catalyst temperature gauge will be the indicator that the burn
cycle is continuing.
Should you burn the stove on a very low setting for extended periods of time, you will begin to see creosote
deposits forming on the glass door. To remove these deposits, simple run the stove on HIGH for a short time,
approximately 30 minutes. e HIGH setting will burn o most of the deposits.
As every pile of wood is di erent you will learn, over time, which settings are necessary to achieve the optimal
re. is will be based on the type of wood you are burning, your home and of course how warm and cozy you
like it inside.
RELOADING PROCEDURE (with the catalyst temperature still in the inactive zone)
Follow the procedure for “LIGHTING THE FIRE” on the previous page.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS cont.
OPTIMAL THERMOSTAT SETTING
Any thermostat position between LOW and HIGH will produce the desired clean burning characteristics.
However, since each application can vary, you may nd it necessary to operate the thermostat to suit your
application. A thermostat setting on HIGH will produce a maximum heat which is more than suitable for
heating the average size home and o er the cleanest door glass.
1. Starting the re. Each stove / home / installation / homeowner combination works a little di erently.
e rst several times you fuel the stove, it may not react as you expect. A little experimentation may be
needed to nd the right combination of fuel and thermostat setting to achieve the maximum e ciency.
is is one of the joys of burning wood. You, the wood burner, make it work. And you can see what
happens as it is working. Be patient, the air / fuel mixture and temperature must be stabilized before
maximum combustion e ciency can be achieved.
2. As the combustor temperature (as indicated by the thermometer on top of the stove) passes into the
active zone, further adjustment to achieve the desired room temperature should be made in small
increments for the most e ective cleaner burning operation. Changes, generally speaking, should be
made as few times each day as possible. When the thermostat knob is moved from high to low, more
gases is produced, so the combustor has more fuel; consequently the combustor thermometer may
register a higher heat for several hours a er the thermostat is turned down.
3. Keep hot coals active so when you reload the stove you will reduce the time necessary to maintain an
active combustor.
4. e thermostat is adjusted at the factory and should not be tampered with. If the thermostat
malfunctions, the damper will close automatically.
FAN OPERATION
If you have the optional fan assembly installed, the fan should be o until the stove reaches normal operating
temperatures. A er approximately 30 minutes, the fan speed adjustment should match the thermostat control
setting, i.e. if your stove is set at medium then your fan should also be set at medium, low—low, high—high
etc…
ICE - FORMATION AND PREVENTION
Most of what you see coming from the chimney of a properly operating catalytic stove is water vapor. In
extremely cold weather - and with some exterior chimneys - this vapor may freeze in the chimney, to the point of
actually blocking the chimney and extinguishing the re. In such weather, occasionally burn the stove for 4 or 5
minutes with the bypass open and the thermostat set at maximum to melt any possible ice buildup.

MAINTENANCE
RUN-AWAY OR CHIMNEY FIRE
A CHIMNEY FIRE CAN PERMANENTLY DAMAGE YOUR CHIMNEY SYSTEM. THIS DAMAGE CAN
ONLY BE REPAIRED BY REPLACING THE DAMAGED COMPONENT PARTS. CHIMNEY FIRE
DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED BY THE LIMITED WARRANTY.
CAUSES:
1. Using incorrect fuel, or small fuel pieces which would normally be used as kindling.
2. Leaving the door ajar too long and creating extreme temperatures as the air rushes in the open door.
3. Improperly installed or worn gaskets.
4. Creosote build up in the chimney.
Page 27
SOLUTIONS:
1. Do not burn treated or processed wood, coal, charcoal, coloured paper or cardboard.
2. Be careful not to over re the appliance by leaving the door open too long a er the initial start-up.
3. Replace worn, dried out (in exible) gaskets.
4. Have chimney regularly cleaned.
WHAT TO DO IF A RUN-AWAY OR CHIMNEY FIRE STARTS:
1. Close the dra fully (lowest position) by shutting o thermostat, and make sure rebox is closed tightly.
2. Call the local re department.
3. Examine the chimney, attic and roof of the house, to see if any part has become hot enough to catch re.
If necessary spray with a re extinguisher or water from a garden hose.
4. Do not operate the appliance again until you are certain the chimney has not been damaged.
CREOSOTE FORMATION AND REMOVAL
When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors which combine with expelled moisture
to form creosote. ese vapors condense in the relatively cooler chimney ue of a slow burning re and when
ignited, make an extremely hot re. Check your chimney for creosote and soot build-up daily, until a safe
frequency for cleaning is established. e chimney connector and chimney should be inspected at least twice
monthly during the heating season to determine if a creosote build up has occurred. Be aware that the hotter
the re, the less creosote is deposited, and weekly cleaning might be necessary in mild weather, even though
substantially longer period without cleaning may be su cient in colder months. Also note that small intense
res are preferable to large smoldering ones to reduce the amount of creosote deposited.
If accumulation is excessive, clean the chimney. You may want to call a professional chimney sweep to clean it.
Both the chimney and the appliance have to be cleaned at least once a year or as o en as necessary.
Have a clearly understood plan to handle a chimney re.
OM-SC30.1 E V1.01 January 20, 2015
Page 28
SC30.1
MAINTENANCE cont.
CHIMNEY MAINTENANCE
e most e cient method to sweep the chimney is using a hard brush. Brush downwards so soot and creosote
residues will come o the inner surface and fall to the bottom of the chimney where they can be removed easily.
e chimney must be checked regularly and if creosote has accumulated, it must be removed without delay.
Cleaning on a monthly basis should be su cient during the coldest months.
Smoke Flue Inspection:
1. e smoke ue should be inspected regularly during the heating season.
2. If possible, the smoke ue should be dismantled and cleaned.
3. e ue should be inspected for possible damage.
4. If it is in good condition, put the ue back in place; otherwise, it must be replaced.
FIRE EXTINGUISHERS AND SMOKE DETECTORS
All homes with a solid fuel burning appliance should have at least one re extinguisher in a central location,
known to all, and at least one smoke detector in the room containing the appliance. If it sounds an alarm,
correct the cause but do not de-activate or relocate the smoke detector.
ASH REMOVAL
is appliance is required to be cleaned frequently because soot, creosote and ash may accumulate. Wait until
the stove is fully cooled o before removal of the ashes. Ashes should be removed any time they come within
one inch of the door opening. It is not necessary or advisable to completely remove all of the ashes when
cleaning this stove. Wood burns best in a bed of ashes 1/2” thick. Ashes should be placed in a metal container
with a tight tting lid. e closed container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible oor or on the
ground (outside), 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

CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR, TESTING
(Conduct test with fans o ) Test the combustor in your Blaze King as follows:
Build a re using the same technique (paper, kindling, logs) you have used in the past. Leave the thermostat
knob on a MED setting. When the re is well established (within one to three hours) turn the thermostat knob
between LOW and MED. A properly operating combustor will remain active, and the combustor thermometer
will remain in the “active” zone until the wood load is mostly consumed. A “tired” or “dead” combustor will,
with the thermostat on MED or lower, go out completely, and the thermometer needle will fall into the “inactive”
zone. Repeat this procedure several times over several days. (Remember that the combustor thermometer
has a built-in lag of 4-8 minutes.) If, a er several test burns, the thermometer will not indicate an “active”
combustor, it may require cleaning or replacement. Contact Blaze King for a replacement combustor, read
“REPLACEMENT PARTS”. It is also possible that the thermometer, itself, may not be reading accurately.
Before condemning the combustor, read “THERMOMETER”.
CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR, CLEANING
Under certain conditions, ash particles may become attached to the face of the combustor. ese may be seen
while the combustor is in the glowing stage, or when the re is out. Any deposit on the visible face of the
combustor should be removed. Wait until the re is out and the stove is cold. (Hot ash in a vacuum cleaner bag
will burn.) Brushing the combustor with a so bristle paint brush will remove some deposits. Passing a plastic
vacuum cleaner wand or brush near the face of the combustor will remove most deposits. Never scrape the
combustor with any hard tool or brush. Some stove owners have run pipe cleaner through every individual cell
of the combustor. is is not needed, and may actually do more harm than good. Limit cleaning to the face of
the combustor.
NOTE: Never remove a combustor without approved combustor gasket in hand as original gasket will fall apart
when removed from stove. Remember to re-install the Flame Shield (the perforated plate) in same position it
was found.
TIP: A nice hot re will usually prove to be the best method of cleaning the combustor of deposits.
CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR, REPLACEMENT
e catalytic thermometer on top of the stove should read in the active zone a er the stove has been in operation
for several hours. If the thermometer’s indicator needle does not stay above the 1/3 mark in the active zone, even
with a hot re, over a 7-10 day period of regular use, the combustor may need replacement. If the combustor
needs replacing then discontinue use of the appliance until the combustor is replaced. If the combustor must be
examined or replaced contact your Blaze King dealer.

DOOR GLASS, CLEANING
e best way to keep the glass clean is to leave the stove on high burn for a period of time a er each reloading
e moisture which is driven from a new load of wood contributes much of the creosote on the inside of the
glass. Removing that moisture at the beginning of the burn cycle helps to keep the glass clean. Leaving the
thermostat on a higher setting for 30 minutes to an hour before turning to low for an overnight burn will also
help. Heavier deposits may require hand cleaning. Manual glass cleaning should be done when the stove and
glass are cool. DO NOT CLEAN THE GLASS WHILE IT IS HOT. WARNING: Do not use abrasive
cleaners to clean the glass. Use a so cloth. A er using any cleaner, thoroughly rinse the glass with water
to remove any deposits le by the cleaner. Failure to remove all traces of glass cleaner will result in the glass
cleaner residue baking on. is residue may be very di cult to remove.
DOOR GLASS, REPLACEMENT
( Blaze King recommends your dealer perform this task)
Your BLAZE KING is equipped with a door which uses a strong, heat-resistant ceramic glass intended to
withstand extremely high temperatures and tested for continuous use above 1200 degrees Fahrenheit. However,
this glass can be broken through improper use. If glass replacement becomes necessary, use only BLAZE KING
CERAMIC GLASS (see “REPLACEMENT PARTS”). DO NOT SUBSTITUTE ANY OTHER MATERIAL
FOR THIS PURPOSE.
BROKEN DOOR GLASS IS SHARP. ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION AND PROTECTIVE
GLOVES WHEN HANDLING GLASS. DISCARD THE GLASS IN A CLOSED CONTAINER
INACCESSIBLE TO CHILDREN.
1. Allow the re to completely burn out and the stove to cool down.
2. Retain all metal parts for re-installation.
3. Open the door and remove the door gasket, then remove the nuts holding the retainers to the inside of
the door.
4. Remove the damaged glass and the old glass gasket.
5. e replacement glass has the gasket installed on its outer perimeter. Place the glass in the door frame. Be
sure the words “Blaze King” etched in the glass read correctly when the door is closed.
6. Replace the gasket and reinstall the retainers with the proper nuts. (Do not over tighten nuts as studs
may break o )

MAINTENANCE cont.
DOOR GASKET INSPECTION
Inspect the door and bypass door gasket for physical deterioration, missing sections or obvious leakage. e
stove front should make a groove in the gasket material - one side of the groove (toward the inside) will o en be
dark or black, and the other side (toward the outside) should be light or white. Dark smudges on the outside of
the groove may indicate a air leak. If the groove is very shallow or missing, or if there is a heavy ash or creosote
deposit along the bottom edge of the gasket, it may need to be replaced. Frayed or broken gasket material, or a
gasket that is hard and unyielding, will also indicate need for replacement. Any time a piece of gasket is missing
or is broken anywhere, the entire gasket must be replaced.
To check the gasket further, wait until the stove is cooled and insert a piece of paper (a dollar bill will work) into
the door opening and close and latch the door. Obvious resistance should be felt when pulling the paper out
Repeat this check several times around the perimeter of the door.
LOADING DOOR TENSION ADJUSTMENT
To tighten the seal, use a 9/16” wrench to loosen
retainer nut on the outside and tighten nut on inside
rebox to move latch catch in (see gure beside).
Secure retainer nut and (repeat) paper test (see
previous paragraph).
Use penetrating oil if necessary to make turning easier.
DO NOT FORCE !!
DO NOT OPERATE THIS WOOD STOVE IF THE DOOR GASKET IS MISSING OR DAMAGED
DANGEROUS OVER FIRING CAN OCCUR WHICH CAN DAMAGE THE APPLIANCE OR IGNITE
CREOSOTE IN THE CHIMNEY, POSSIBLY CAUSING A HOUSE FIRE. IF ANY PART OF THE
WOODSTOVE OR FLUE SYSTEM IS GLOWING THE STOVE IS BEING OVER FIRED.

SC30.1
MAINTENANCE cont.
CHIMNEY DRAFTS
If you suspect a dra problem in an existing chimney, determine the dra by using a water manometer (or
digital dra gauge). e dra should be measured with the stove at medium burn. A er the measurement is
completed, ll any holes that were made in the chimney connector by using a sheet metal screw of proper size.
Recommended dra is .02 -.03 in. w.c. at medium re. Too little dra results in a sluggish re and smoke spillage
when the stove door is opened. Too much dra (over 0.06 in. w.c.) makes it unsafe to operate the stove and will
void manufacturers warranty. Use a key damper if necessary to avoid excessive dra .
OPTIONAL FAN ASSEMBLY
Routine maintenance of the OPTIONAL Fan Assembly on the back of the stove is not required. However,
should it become necessary to replace an individual fan or rheostat, contact your local dealer.
THERMOMETER
e combustor thermometer tells you what was happening 4-8 minutes ago, and remember, it is only an
indication of the temperatures of the gasses a er they pass through the combustor. e thermometer probe,
the part that ts into the stove, must be cleaned at least once a year. Li it from the stove (be careful, it may be
hot) and wipe or scrape it clean. At room temperature, away from the stove, the indicator should point near the
bottom of the “Inactive” zone. If, a er several years use, you nd that the needle no longer points to the bottom
of the “Inactive” zone when the thermometer has been at room temperature for 10 minutes or longer, it may
need adjustment. Holding the probe with a pair of pliers, loosen the bolt on the top of the dial. Turn the dial to
align the pointer with the bottom of the “Inactive” zone, then retighten the bolt.
NOTE: IF YOUR BLAZE KING IS EQUIPPED WITH OPTIONAL FANS, TURN OFF FANS AND
WAIT 10 MINUTES PRIOR TO READING CATALYTIC THERMOMETER INDICATOR. AIR
MOVEMENT ACROSS THE TOP OF THE STOVE MAY PROVIDE FALSE READING.
THERMOSTAT
e thermostat is adjusted at the factory and should not be tampered with. If the thermostat breaks, the damper
will automatically close and replacement (by a quali ed technician) of the complete thermostat is required.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Your Blaze King is designed to allow a wide selection of heat output levels. If you begin to lose control of the amount of heat the stove
is emitting, determine the cause early so that major problems may be avoided.
e six major needs of a well-controlled re are:
1. Knowledgeable operator.
2. Adequate air supply.
3. Firewood of good quality and proper size.
4. Catalytic combustor in good condition.
5. Clean chimney, properly sized and installed.
6. Door gasket tight and rm.
Considering all of the above, number one is the most important for safe and e cient operation of any woodstove. Please study the
operation instructions carefully. Consult your BLAZE KING dealer or call the Customer Service Department at Blaze King in the
U.S.A. at 509-522-2730 or in Canada at 250-493-7444 if you have any questions not answered in this manual.
All of the six above mentioned needs are interrelated. A de ciency in any one will a ect all of the others. If you encounter a problem,
determine the source of the problem and then follow-up by checking the other needs as possible contributing factors.
PROBLEM: Chimney Fire
CAUSE
Act immediately regardless of cause
A er the re is out, have your chimney and ue connector inspected by a certi ed chimney sweep. A damaged masonry chimney
should be repaired or rebuilt. A prefabricated chimney (factory built) that is damaged should be replaced. Any damage to the ue
connector should be corrected before the system is used again.
SOLUTION
Turn the thermostat to lowest setting, check loading door to be
sure it is tightly closed.
Call Fire Department.

Burning poorly seasoned wet wood, or wood with
high pitch content.
PROBLEM: The combustor temperature cannot be controlled. Turning the thermostat down often makes the
combustor temperature go up.
CAUSE
Turning the thermostat down, particularly in the fi rst half of the burn cycle, causes the fi re to emit more smoke, which is
fuel for the combustor. The combustor temperature therefore climbs for up to several hours. This is normal, and is of no
concern. As long as only the combustor temperature is elevated, there is nothing to worry about.
SOLUTION
Inspect chimney and / or chimney connector. Repair or replace
as necessary. Check to be sure that the chimney connector is
installed correctly.
