This manual contains instructions for Installation, Operation & Maintenance.

Please read this entire manual before you install and use your new room heater. Failure to follow

instructions may result in property damage, bodily injury, or even death.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES:

1) When installing your stove, particular attention should be paid to fire protection. If this room heater is not properly installed,

a house fire may result. To reduce the risk of fire, follow the installation instructions. Contact local building or fire officials or
authority having jurisdiction about restrictions, installation inspection and permit requirements in your area.

2) CAUTION: Never use gasoline or gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to start or “freshen
up” a fire in this heater. Keep all such liquids well away from heater while it is in use.

3) During operation, if any part of the stove starts to glow, the stove is in an overfired condition. Close the air controls completely
until the glowing has stopped. OVERFIRING VOIDS YOUR WARRANTY!

4) Cool ashes should be disposed of carefully, using a metal container.

5) Do not burn wet or green wood. Store wood in a dry location.

6) DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE FLUIDS SUCH AS GASOLINE, NAPHTHA OR ENGINE OIL. Do not burn
treated wood, or wood with salt (driftwood, etc.). Burning materials other than wood (including charcoal) under adverse
conditions may generate carbon monoxide in the home, resulting in illness or possible death.

7) Do not permit creosote or soot to accumulate excessively in the chimney or inside the firebox.

8) Check your chimney system thoroughly when installing into an existing metal or masonry chimney. Seek professional
advice if in doubt about its condition.

9) Do not connect this unit to a chimney flue already serving another appliance.

10) Comply with all minimum clearances to combustibles as shown in this manual for this appliance.

11) Build fire on brick firebox floor. Do not use grates, andirons or other methods to support fuel.

12) HOT WHILE IN OPERATION! Keep children, pets, clothing and furniture away. Contact can cause skin burns.

13) Do not connect to any air distribution duct or system.

14) RISK OF FIRE! Do not operate with stove door open without the firescreen or with the ash removal system door open.

15) For further information refer to NFPA 211 (USA) or CAN/CSA-B365 (Canada).

16) Do not operate without fully assembling all components.

17) Do not operate with broken glass.

LISTINGS and SAFETY NOTICES

These installation instructions describe the installation and opera­tion of the QUADRA-FIRE YOSEMITE woodstove. This stove
meets the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s 1990 particulate
emission standards. The Yosemite is listed by OMNI-Test Labora­tories, Inc. to UL Safety Standard 1482, UL737 and ULC S627-00,
and (UM) 84-HUD. The Yosemite is approved for mobile home
installations when not installed in a sleeping room and when an
outside combustion air inlet is provided. The structural integrity of
the mobile home floor, ceiling, and walls must be maintained. Never
use a single wall connector (stove pipe) only double-wall connector
pipe. The stove must be properly grounded to the frame of the
mobile home. Outside Air Kit, Part 831-1780 must be installed in
a mobile home installation.

Check with your local building code agency before you begin your
installation to ensure compliance with local codes, including the
need for permits and follow-up inspections. Be sure local building
codes do not supersede UL specifications and always obtain a
building permit so that insurance protection benefits cannot be
unexpectedly cancelled. If any assistance is required during
installation, please contact your local dealer.

Inspect and clean vent system frequently in accordance with the
instructions contained in this manual. Do not connect this unit to
a chimney serving another appliance.

When using optional Blower, Part 831-1701, route power cord away
from unit. Do not route cord under or in front of appliance.

Do not elevate fire. Build wood fire directly on firebrick.

Do not overfire - if heater or chimney connector glows, you are
overfiring. Stove thermometer recommended.

Operate only with the door closed. Open only to add fuel to the fire
unless using firescreen. Operating with the door open can cause
hot embers or sparks to fall out and a fire may result.

FIRE SAFETY: To provide reasonable fire safety, the following
should be given serious consideration:

1. Install at least one smoke detector on each floor of your
home to ensure your safety. They should be located away
from the heating appliance and close to the sleeping areas.
Follow the smoke detector manufacturer’s placement
and installation instructions, and be sure to maintain
regularly.

2. A conveniently located Class A fire extinguisher to contend
with small fires resulting from burning embers.

3. A practiced evacuation plan, consisting of at least 2
escape routes.

4. A plan to deal with a chimney fire as follows:

In the event of a chimney fire:

A. Notify fire department.
B. Prepare occupants for immediate evacuation.
C. Close all openings into the stove.
D. While awaiting fire department, watch for ignition of

adjacent combustibles from overheated stove pipe,
hot embers or sparks from the chimney.

VENTING SYSTEM

The venting system consists of a chimney connector and a
chimney. These get extremely hot during use. Temperatures
inside the chimney may exceed 2000°F (1100°C) in the event of
a creosote fire. To protect against the possibility of a house fire,
the chimney connector and chimney must be properly installed
and maintained. An approved 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 prefabricated chimney. These
accessories are absolutely necessary to provide safe clearances
to combustible wall and ceiling material. Follow venting
manufacturer’s clearances when installing venting system.

INSTALLATION MATERIALS NEEDED FOR YOUR SAFETY

CHIMNEY CONNECTOR (also known as flue pipe or stove pipe):

The chimney connector joins the stove to the chimney (see

FLOOR PROTECTION

Minimum Hearth Requirements ONLY

See page 6 for stove clearances

The floor must be non-combustible material, extending beneath heater and to the front/sides/rear as indicated. The floor must be
non-combustible or otherwise adequately protected from radiant heat given off by the unit and from sparks and falling embers. A
layer of thin brick or ceramic tile over a combustible floor is not sufficient.

In USA installations, it is necessary to install a non-combustible floor protector at least 16 inches in front and 8 inches to both
sides of the fuel loading doors. See *exception below.

In Canada, similar floor protection must be provided 18 inches (450mm) in front and 8 inches (200mm) from the sides and rear of
the stove. See *exception below.

*EXCEPTION: Non-combustible floor protections must extend beneath the flue pipe when installed with horizontal venting and
extend 2 inches (51mm) beyond each side.

LOCATING YOUR STOVE

WHEN LOCATING YOUR STOVE consider safety, convenience,

traffic flow, and the fact that the stove will need a chimney and
chimney connector. It is a good idea to plan your installation
on paper, using exact measurements for clearances and floor
protection, before actually beginning the installation. If you’re
not using an existing chimney, place the stove where there will
be a clear passage for a factory-built listed chimney through
the ceiling and roof.

AVOID FIRE: Maintain the designated clearances to combustibles.
Insulation must not touch the chimney. You must maintain the
designated air space clearance around the chimney. This space
around a chimney is necessary to allow natural heat removal
from the area. Insulation in this space will cause a heat buildup,
which may ignite wood framing. NOTE: Clearances may only

be reduced by means approved by the regulatory authority
having jurisdiction.

WE RECOMMEND that you have a qualified building inspector

and your insurance company representative review your plans
before installation.

LEG LEVELING SYSTEM

1. Thread Allen bolts through nuts until flush. Figure 9A. The

Allen bolts and nuts are included in the component pack inside
the stove firebox.

2. Slide assembled nuts and bolts into slots on legs with the nuts

on the bottom. Figure 9B. Use a 5/32" (3.96mm) Allen wrench
to adjust legs up and down to desired level. Figure 9C

SIDE FUEL-LOADING-DOOR LOCKING

MECHANISM

The side fuel-loading-door is shipped locked in place. See Figure
9E. You must first decide where you are locating your stove and

determine if you meet the minimum required clearances from
combustibles for loading wood into the firebox from the side door.
If you do not meet the clearances found on page 6, leave the door
locked in place. If you unlock the door without meeting the minimum
required clearances YOU WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY AND
ASSUME ALL RESPONSIBILITIES. If you meet the minimum
clearances, follow the steps below to unlock the door. If in the
future you decide to relocate your stove, again determine if you
meet the mimimum required clearances to combustibles in the new
location. If you do not, you are required to lock the door shut and
it must remain locked at all times.

INSTRUCTIONS TO UNLOCK SIDE FUEL DOOR

1. Open front door.

2. Using a Phillips head screwdriver, remove the screw from the

locking bracket. Figure 9D.

3. Rotate locking bracket to horizontal position and secure in

place using the same screw.

REVERSIBLE FLUE COLLAR

The flue collar is reversible for either a top or rear venting
installation. Accessory Horizontal Flue Heat Shield, Part
HTSHLD-7006, is required in rear vent installations. The
stove is shipped with the flue collar in the top vent position.

CONVERTING COLLAR FOR REAR VENT INSTALLATION

1. Lift off cast top. Remove 4 Phillips head screws from the
heat shield. Discard heat shield and save the screws.

Figure 10A

2. Remove 4 Phillips head screws from the rear shield, 2 on
each side, lift shield off and set aside. Figure 10D

3.

Remove 1 bolt from each side of the flue transition.
and retrieve nuts attached to bolts. Use 3/8" and 7/16"
wrenches.

4. Turn vent to horizontal position. Inspect sealant to ensure
a leak free application. Figure 10C

5 Manually snap off the knock-out section and discard. See

white outline in Figure 10A.

6. Reattach the rear shield on both sides.

7. Position the bracket (found in the component pack inside
the firebox) over the opening on the rear shield. Use
2 screws removed in Step #1 to secure the bracket.
