— Welcome —

Getting Acquainted

The Artisan stove is a time proven heating and cooking
appliance. Take your time to acquaint yourself with the
principles on which your new stove operates as a heater
and a cooking stove.

Familiarizing yourself with the primary principles of the air

intake controls, the oven damper, the ame path for the
re and the relationship to the chimney will give you a very

comprehensive understanding of what you are trying to
accomplish with the stove.

Save These Instructions

Keep the manual available for future reference. The manual
is an important part of your stove. If your stove is sold, deliver
the manual to the new owner along with the stove.

The quality of the installation (especially the chimney connector
and chimney), and the quality of the fuel being burned will
affect the performance of your stove, but the most important
factor is the way you operate the stove. With the help of this
manual, you will learn how to effectively heat and cook with
your stove. Be sure to read it entirely, including the terms of
reference and function.

Safety Notice: If your stove is not properly installed and
maintained, a house re may result. For your safety, follow
all installation, operation and maintenance directions.
Contact local building ofcials about restrictions and
installation inspection requirements in your area.
(“Makeshift” compromises in the installation may result
in hazardous conditions, including a house re.)

Note: Do NOT connect to or use in conjunction with any air
distribution ductwork. This stove is not approved for such
installations.

Do NOT use chemical or uids to start the re.

Do NOT burn garbage or ammable uids such as gasoline

or engine oil.

CAUTION: Stove is hot while in operation. Keep children,
clothing, and furniture away. Contact may cause skin
burns.

Spend some time becoming familiar with the various parts of
the stove by operating them before you burn your stove.

In addition, your own experience will help you to learn the
role that the chimney plays in stove performance. The
Artisan has been tested and is listed by Warnock Hersey.
The test standards are ULC S-627for Canada and UL
1482 for U.S.

The Artisan is listed for burning wood only. Do not burn
other materials or garbage. The Artisan is not listed for
installation in mobile homes. Do not install the stove in
mobile homes.

After a few weeks of operating the stove re-read this manual.
Many of the procedures will become clearer after you have
had some experience with the stove.

The serial number is located on a pull out plate at the bottom
right hand side of the front of the unit. The listed rating plate
is located on the back wall of the unit.

INSTALLATION

Place the stove in the intended position and lift out the
hotplate, checking that the joint between the underside
of the hob and the top of the stove is intact. Any joints

which have opened should be made good with the re

cement provided.

Replace the hotplate making sure that it is seated evenly
on

the soft rope and that it is approximately 0.1" (1.5 mm)

higher then the enamelled top plate, with an equal space

all round. Fit the ue chamber which should have a rope
seal already installed. The ue chamber is screwed to the

stove making a good seal as any air leak at this point will

impede the working of the stove. Open the rebox and

ashpit doors and check that the reciprocating bottom grate
bars are in position. Operate the riddling lever to ensure
bottomgrate operation.

Be sure to read the sections on clearances, oor
protection and chimneys before actively starting the

installation.

A woodburning stove radiates heat in all directions. Heat
directed toward living areas in front of the stove is usually
very welcome. However, heat radiating in other directions will
not be as welcome if it results in overheating nearby walls,

ceilings and oors.

An important part of planning a safe installation is to be sure
that the combustible material located near your stove does
not overheat.
Clearance is the distance between your stove and stovepipe

and nearby walls, ceilings and oors.

If there is adequate clearance, then the nearby surfaces will
not overheat.

Fig.1

Handrail:

The handrail brackets are held on the front ends of the stove
top-plate casting. Remove the travel nuts and replace with

the handrail brackets ensuring the bre protecting washers
are in position. Insert the handrails with tted endcaps into

the brackets, positioning them correctly, and tighten the
locating bolts (See Figure 1). Do not use handrail to move

stove. Do not hang combustible material on handrail
during stove operation.

Warning

The ashpit and rebox door must be closed during

normal use, except when lighting or refueling.

It is very important that you match the stove pipe you are

using to the clearances specied. Failure to do so will result

in an unsafe condition.

Unit must be placed on a continuous non-combustible pad

(oor tile with grouting or sheet metal pad) extending 21" (540
mm) in front and 8" (203 mm) to the sides and back.

Air owing between the stove pipe and nearby surfaces
carries away heat. Do not ll the empty space with any

insulating material.

A chimney approved to CSA B.365-01 in Canada or

NFPA 211 in the USA must be used to connect to the

Clearances must be maintained to all combustible
material. These include doors, trim, furniture,
drapes, newspapers and clothes. See local codes
for a description of combustible material.

Make sure that no oor or chimney supports will be cut due

to chimney installations.

Contact local building ofcials about restrictions and

installation inspection in your area.
