Introducing Your Lima Wood Stove
Thank you for purchasing a HASE Collection Lima
woodstove from Hearthstone Quality Home Heating
Products. This stove will provide years of
comfortable heat. This stove also provides the
benefits of advanced technology in wood burning
without the cost and maintenance requirements of a
catalytic device. The Lima blends modern
technology with the unique beauty and qualities of
steel and soapstone. We trust that you will
appreciate the quality of this handcrafted product.
Your Lima woodstove is designed to burn efficiently,
and produce a large amount of heat. However, you
should not consider your Lima the primary heat
source for your home. The Lima’s unique ability to
rotate 180 degrees and the very large curved glass
window allow you to enjoy the fire from a variety of
locations in the room.
Please read this manual in its entirety. Its purpose is
to familiarize you with your stove's safe installation,
proper break-in, operation and maintenance. It
contains extremely important information so keep it
handy and refer to it often.
A qualified heating technician may need this owner’s
manual as a reference when installing this stove in
your home. There are national, state, and local
building codes that direct the technician on how to
install your stove. These codes stipulate the
dimension of stovepipe and clearances to walls,
ceilings, hearth, and other combustible surfaces.
The codes exist to reduce the risk of fire. Failure to
follow these instructions can result in fire, property
damage, bodily injury, and even death.
Install the stove in a safe, open area, away from
traffic flow, doors, and hallways. If possible, try to
install the stove near an existing chimney and
chimney connector. It is extremely important to
install this stove with the proper clearance from
combustible surfaces. You can purchase specific
connector pipe and special wall coverings as
specified by this manual and the NFPA 211 code to
protect combustible surfaces. Keep furniture,
drapes, curtains, wood, paper, and other
combustibles at least 36 inches (92 cm) away from
the stove. Never install the stove in a location where
gasoline, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid or other
flammable liquids are used or stored.
Install the stove in your living area to allow heat to
radiate naturally to distant rooms. Do not install your
stove in a poorly insulated area. This is inefficient
and would likely result in higher fuel usage and
possibly unsafe burning conditions.
SAFETY NOTICE: AN IMPROPERLY INSTALLED
STOVE CAN RESULT IN A HOUSE FIRE. FOR
YOUR SAFETY, CAREFULLY FOLLOW THE
INSTALLATION DIRECTIONS. CONTACT LOCAL
BUILDING OR FIRE OFFICIALS ABOUT
RESTRICTIONS AND INSTALLATION INSPECTION
IN YOUR AREA.
READ THIS ENTIRE MANUAL BEFORE YOU
INSTALL AND USE YOUR NEW ROOM
HEATER. IF THIS ROOM HEATER IS NOT
PROPERLY INSTALLED A HOUSE FIRE MAY
RESULT. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE,
FOLLOW THE INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS. FAILURE TO FOLLOW
INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN PROPERTY
DAMAGE, BODILY INJURY, OR EVEN
DEATH.
The safety of your stove will depend on many
factors, some of which include: distance to
combustible objects, correct venting, and adequate
chimney maintenance. Should you have any
questions, do not hesitate to contact your dealer for
additional information.
Contact your dealer for any necessary warranty
service.

CODES
When you install your Lima wood stove, it is
imperative that you adhere to all Federal and local
codes. Obtain these codes from either of the
following sources:
American National Standards Institute, Inc.
(ANSI)
1430 Broadway
New York, NY 10018
National Fire Protection Association, Inc. (NFPA)

Standard, Title 24 CFR, Part 3280 (United States).
SAFETY INFORMATION
Read and understand this Owner's Manual
thoroughly before installing and using this
stove.
Make sure to install your stove:
According to the manufacturer's
recommendations,
In accordance with all applicable codes, and
With the proper sized chimney.
When using your stove:
Warn children and others of the danger of touching hot,
radiating surfaces of your woodstove. For your additional
safety, you can purchase hearth and stove guards through
your local dealer.
Burn natural wood only. Higher efficiencies and lower
emissions result when burning air-dried, seasoned
wood, as compared to green or freshly cut wood.
Use caution when loading firewood into a hot stove.
Keep the front door closed and secured at all times
except when loading wood.
Keep the ash pan tray fully inserted and the handle
tightly latched.
Inspect the stovepipe, chimney connector and
chimney, as recommended.
Follow these safety precautions:
Never modify this stove in any way.
Never burn kiln dried, painted or treated wood in this
stove.
Never burn garbage or trash, colored or glossy paper,
solvents, plywood, artificial logs, cardboard, or
driftwood, in this stove.
Never burn coal in this stove.
Never use gasoline, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid,
or other flammable fluids to start or invigorate the fire.
These fuels will cause dangerous burning conditions
in the stove. Keep all such materials away from the
stove.
Never use the stove if the ash pan is open, damaged,
not present, or does not fully seal. The ash pan cover
must be present under the pan to ensure the pan
seals properly.
Never use a wood grate or other device to elevate the
fire.
Never allow logs in the firebox to contact with the
glass when the door is closed.
Never slam the door or use the door to force wood in
to the stove.
Never over-fire your stove. (See page 21)
Never put articles of clothing or candles on a hot
stove.
Never connect the stove to a flue used by another
appliance.
Other safety guidelines:
Keep all combustible items such as furniture, drapes,
clothing, and other items, at least 36" (0.92 m) from
the stove (See page 10)
Install a smoke detector, preferably in an area away
from your wood stove.
Keep a fire extinguisher handy. We recommend the
type rated "A B C."
Dispose of ashes properly. (See page 21)
Keep children and pets away from the stove when it is
burning; they could be seriously injured by touching a
hot stove.
Clean your chimney system as needed. (See page
22)
PERIODIC CHECKLIST
Perform each of these tasks at least at the specified
intervals.
At the End of Every Week:
Empty ashes from the firebox and ash pan,
sooner if the firebox or the ash pan is full.
At the Beginning of Every Other Month:
Hearthstone Quality Home Heating Products, Inc ® Lima Model 8150

Depending upon your use of the stove, visually
inspect the chimney connector and chimney for
creosote. (Please see page 22)
Check door seals using the "dollar bill test." -
When the stove is cool, shut the door on a dollar
bill. If the bill pulls out without any resistance,
then your stove’s door is not sealing properly. To
tighten the seal, adjust the door latch
mechanism or change the door gasket. (Refer to
page 22.)
At the End of Every Season:
Dismantle the chimney connector and clean it
thoroughly. Replace any pieces that show signs
of rust or deterioration.
Inspect and, if necessary, clean your chimney.
Thoroughly clean out the inside of the stove.
Inspect all door gasket material and replace if
worn, frayed, cracked or extremely hard.
Inspect and replace cracked or damaged
vermiculite panels.

PROTECTION
Ensure you protect combustible flooring with a
covering of a noncombustible material. The floor
protection must extend beyond the body of the
stove at the minimum as follows:
In Figures 1 and 2 you will find two hearth options;
one hearth for the freely rotating stove and the other
for the locked stove.
* Installations in Canada require 18” (45.72 cm) of floor
protection on both side and front.
** Rear clearance required only if stovepipe runs horizontally
back above the top of the stove.
Note: Dimensions shown in previous figures
are from the body of the stove.
The Lima wood stove has a unique feature that
allows it to rotate. This rotation allows positioning the
body of the stove into 13 different positions, up to a
full 90 degrees to either side. In order to install the
Lima onto the smaller hearth protector shown in
Figure 2, you must lock the stove in place. To do
this, follow the instructions below:
ROTATION LOCK INSTALL PROCEDURE
1. Open the lower control door and locate the
rotation control.
2. Ensure the stove is in its 0-degree
orientation (line up the index marks) and
then position the stove to center the door on
the hearth.(see fig. 3)
3. Press the control lever and release. Using a
13mm wrench, remove the hex screw at the
base of the control knob and washer (see
fig. 4).
4. Rotate the stove body very slightly. Slide the
Locking Stopper down through the hole on
the deck of the control knob. Be sure the
Stopper slides all the way into place over the
matching groove (see fig. 5).
