CARE OF ENAMELLED P ARTS

Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean these parts. Buff lightly with a clean, dry cloth. Porcelain enamel compo­nents must be handled with care. The baked-on finish is "glasslike". If struck, it will chip. Touch-up paint is
available through your Napoleon dealer.

CARE OF GLASS

If the glass is not kept clean permanent discolouration and / or blemishes may result. Normally a hot burn will
clean the glass. The most common reason for dirty glass is running the unit at a low burning rate. If it is
necessary to clean the glass, use a soft cloth with a nonabrasive cleaner. Coarse cleaning materials may cause
scratches or otherwise damage the glass. Scratches can develop into cracks or breaking of the glass. DO NOT
CLEAN GLASS WHEN HOT!
The glass is very strong and comes in strips for maximum performance. However, always close the door gently.
If the glass should ever crack while the fire is burning, do not open the door until the fire is out and do not
operate the stove again until the glass has been replaced with new borosilicate glass, available from your
Napoleon / Wolf Steel Ltd. dealer. DO NOT SUBSTITUTE MATERIALS. Check gaskets and seals regularly.

LOCATION AND CLEARANCES

If the stove is to be installed on a combustible floor, it must be placed
on a approved noncombustible hearth pad, that extends the full width
and depth of the unit - 24½" x 21½" (620 mm x 544 mm).

Maintain these minimum clearances to combustibles:
A (side wall to side of stove) 12 inches (300mm)
B (back wall to back of stove) 19 inches (483mm)

C (back wall to back of chimney connector) 12 inches (300mm)

If reduced clearances are needed, obtain requirements from your local building code authorities.

FIGURE 2

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Please read the installation instructions carefully, prior to installing the oil stove.

Your Napoleon oil stove must be installed in accordance with all national and local building code standards.
Consult the authority having jurisdiction (such as municipal building department, fire department, fire prevention
bureau, etc.) to determine the need to obtain a permit. If you are in doubt about the proper installation for your
situation, contact your dealer or local building or fire official.

DRAFT AIR

Most of the heat generated by the oil stove is used to warm the room air. However, part of the generated heat
escapes as exhaust gas through the chimney, creating a ‘chimney draft’. To ensure proper operations of the
stove, it must be connected to a chimney having a sufficient draft capacity to operate the stove satisfactorily.
Flue draft, measured as negative pressure in the chimney, is created by the hot, rising combustion gas. The
draft, in turn, permits combustion air to enter the burner and emit the exhaust gases from the chimney to
complete the combustion cycle. A draft of 0.08" water column for maximum speed burn and 0.024" for mini­mum speed burn is rated best to obtain the utmost performance of the oil stove.
Basic criteria essential to create and maintain chimney draft are:

1. Availability of combustion air

2. Diameter and height of chimney.

3. Heat generated by the fire.
These segments work together to create the chimney draft. To alter one of them will affect the other two and
change the amount of draft in the chimney and ultimately the stove’s performance. To ensure that adequate
chimney draft is maintained, the chimney should be kept clean and without cracks. As soon as the oil stove has
been installed, the chimney draft should be checked with a draftmeter. In order to insert the draftmeter probe
into the chimney connector, drill a ¼” hole at the rear of the connector joint approximately 6” from the rear of the
flue collar. This may then be sealed with a screw once all testing has been completed. Flue draft is measured
when the oil stove is hot (after a minimum use of 30 minutes) to establish a true reading of the draft. For the
recommended operating draft level, see ‘General Information’ on page 4. Draft adjustment can be made through
use of the draft regulator located at the back of the oil stove (item 12, figure 9). In the event that the chimney
draft is excessive or irregular, a draft stabiliser should to be fitted to the chimney.

OUTSIDE AIR

The oil burning stove consumes about 4000 ft3 of air per US gallon of oil (30 m3 of air per litre of oil). This air is
introduced into the burner through air inlets and exits the chimney as combustion gas. For the oil stove to
function properly, an adequate supply of combustion air is required. There are many other appliances in your
home competing for air such as: a kitchen range hood, forced air heating devices, clothes dryer or a bathroom
exhaust fan. Clothes dryers exhaust 400 CFM (cubic feet / minute); range hoods and exhaust fans can exhaust
up to 150 CFM. If there is insufficient combustion air, you may need to open a door or window to avoid adversely
affecting the performance of the oil stove.
The manufacturer of the stove and/or his agent is not responsible for any smoking or related problems or
damages resulting from the lack of adequate combustion air. It is the responsibility of the installation contractor
to ensure that adequate combustion air is available to the stove at all times.

6

THE TOTAL SMOKE PIPE LENGTH SHOULD NOT EXCEED 40% OF THE CHIMNEY HEIGHT ABOVE
THE STOVE TO A MAXIMUM HORIZONTAL RUN OF 10 FEET.
All smoke pipe must slope upwards at a minimum of 1/4" per foot (6mm/0.3m) and all connections
must be tight and secured by three sheet metal screws equally spaced.
An uninsulated smoke pipe shall not pass through an attic, roof space, closet or similar concealed
space, or through a floor, ceiling, wall or partition, or any combustible construction.

CHIMNEY SPECIFICA TIONS

If the chimney is ‘cold’, the normal combustion cycle will not work. A cold chimney may be caused by disuse,
being too large, not insulated, being external or not high enough. Exterior chimneys cool rapidly, causing poor
draft and condensation.

CHIMNEY CONNECTOR

The stove should be located as close as possible to the chimney to avoid draft problems. Horizontal flue
connectors restrict the establishment of the required chimney draft and thereby prevent the normal functioning
of the stove. Ensure that the connection is supported and fastened to the stove. Example: Wrap plumber’s
strapping around the vertical section of the connector and screw to either edge of the rear heat shield. Ensure
that the strapping is snug fitting (As an alternative support, drill three evenly spaced holes into the connector
and flue collar and attach screws.)

A chimney connector may be used only within the room where the unit is located, between the oil stove and the
chimney but never passing through a combustible ceiling or wall. Minimum connector clearances to combustibles
are to be maintained. If necessary, where local codes allow, a wall thimble may be used.

There are two types of chimney connectors:

THE SINGLE WALL CONNECTOR: This connector must be 316 grade 26 gauge stainless steel or 1 mm

vitreous enamelled steel and with a 5" (125 mm) diameter. Secure the connector joints with 3 sheet metal

screws. The joints are to be airtight.
All connector sections must be attached to the unit and to each other with the crimped or male end pointing
down towards the oil stove.

CHIMNEY INST ALLATION

An A-Vent chimney, either 4" (100 mm.) or 5" (125 mm.) in diameter may be used. Six inch diameter ‘L’ vent
may be used but only with No. 2 furnace oil. The minimum chimney height is to be 15 feet or 4.6 metres
measured from the appliance flue collar to the top of the chimney but not including any chimney caps. Installa­tion of all chimney systems is to be in accordance with the chimney manufacturers installation instructions. If
the stove is to be connected to a masonry chimney, a stainless
steel liner is required.

1. Move the stove into position with the flue centred, mid­point between two joists to prevent having to cut them. Use a
plumb bob to line up the centre.

2. Cut and frame an opening in the roof to provide a 2" clear­ance between the outside of the chimney and any combustible
material. DO NOT FILL THIS SPACE WITH ANY TYPE OF
MATERIAL.

Nail headers between the joist for extra support. Firestop
spacers must be placed on the bottom of each framed opening
in any floor or ceiling that the chimney passes through. FIGURE

3.

3. Hold a plumb bob from the underside of the roof to determine where the opening in the roof should be. Cut

and frame the roof opening to maintain proper 2" clearances. FIGURE 4.

FIGURE 3

FIGURE 4

ADDING CHIMNEY SECTIONS

Add chimney sections, twist locking (clockwise) securely, to the required height.
Safety requirements dictate that the chimney must be at least 3 feet (915 mm) higher
than the highest point where it passes through the roof and at least 2 feet (610 mm)
higher than the highest part of the roof or structure that is within 10 feet (3.05 m) of
the chimney, measured horizontally. FIGURE 5. Obstacles close to the chimney
may cause downdrafts which may be prevented by the installation of a chimney cap
fitted with a wind deflector. If your chimney system is enclosed within the attic area,
a rafter radiation shield is required.

FINISHING

LEVELLING THE STOVE

Four adjusting bolts with caps are supplied and which have been placed in the burner
for packing purposes only. Fit the screws and caps to the bottom of the stove legs.
Place the level on the burner ring and adjust the bolts until the burner has reached a
level position.

ASH TRA Y INST ALLATION

To avoid damage to the ash tray during transport, it has been discon­nected and stored behind the main door of the oil stove. To reinstall the
ash tray to the front of the oil stove, tilt the tray at a 45° angle, center onto
tab ‘A’ and lower into place.

FIGURE 7

FUEL SUPPLY

The NAPOLEON OS10 cast iron oil burning stove is designed and fitted with a special carburetor to use only a
specific category of fuel oil. This fuel oil must be clean and free of any dirt or traces of water. Impurities in the
fuel oil can cause a reduced efficiency level.

The only fuel to be used with this heating appliance is FURNACE OIL NO. 2 OR NO. 1.

DO NOT allow the oil tank to get empty. To do so may cause the stove to soot and increase the risk

of a chimney fire.

Never use gasoline, motor oil or any gasoline contaminated oil.

The oil tank should be located in such a manner to prevent exposure to direct sunlight or be close

to any source of intense heat.

The fuel system of an oil burning stove can either be a gravity system or one equipped with a fuel suction pump.
The system selection depends on the location of the fuel tank.
The fuel system of this stove is designed to supply fuel by gravity pressure only. If the supply tank location is
lower than the stove, it will be necessary to use the Napoleon SP32 suction pump. The SP32 should be installed
a minimum of 12” above the stove carburetor and a minimum of 6” horizontally from the stove. This height
difference will provide the necessary head pressure to feed the fuel to the carburetor.
Also, if the height difference between oil tank and oil stove is in excess of 8 feet (2.44 metres), an oil pressure
regulator must be fitted close to the carburetor to mitigate the pressure in the feeder line. The oil feeder line or
oil supply line must be copper tubing with a minimum outside diameter of 5/16" (8 mm). Maximum pressure for
the feed line is 3 psi (20 kPa). A safety shut-off should be installed behind the stove.

Furnace oil is fed from the tank to the burner floor (A) where
is it ignited by means of a firestarter. The heat produced by
this flame brings the burner temperature to the required level
to vaporize the fuel. Oil will only burn as a vapour not a
liquid. Room combustion air enters the burner through the
air inlet holes (B).
The stove carburetor contains a filter to trap impurities. This
filter must be cleaned periodically with the frequency de­pending on the fuel purity. A safety lever controls fuel flow.
Oil can only enter the float chamber when the safety lever is
depressed. Oil temperature variations will affect the oil flow
into the float chamber. A float in the chamber raises the fuel
level available to the burner. The carburetor is also controlled by a control knob which turns from 0 (off) to 6
(high setting).
In the center of the burner is the catalyser (C) which aids in vaporizing the fuel. When the stove is operation, the
catalyser glows red. The stove should not be used without both the catalyser, catalyser top (D) and ring (E).
To the right of the unit, just below the side panel is a small push rod called a de-scaling lever, (item 13, figure 9),
that should be pushed and pulled in and out as well as turning slightly at the same time to keep the inlet pipe
clear of carbon buildup. This should be done on a weekly basis.
Because the draft from the chimney is never uniform, a draft regulator has been added to ensure a constant air
intake to the burner regardless of external factors.

Never light the burner if any oil is in the burner pot.

The burner pot must be cleaned thoroughly prior to lighting or relighting.

Keep the door of the oil stove closed when it is in operation except during lighting procedures.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

Proceed once installation is complete and all necessary instructions have been followed:

When lit for the first time, the stove will emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is a normal temporary condition
caused by the curing and the "burn-in" of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process and
will not occur again. After extended periods of non-operation such as following a vacation or a warm weather
season, the stove may emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is caused by dust particles burning off. In both
cases, open a window to sufficiently ventilate the room.

FIGURE 11

1. Through the open door, remove the catalyser components

(items C, D and E, figure 10) from the burner.

2. Ensure that the burner pot is dry, and clean with no oil remaining.

3. Place a piece of thumb nail size

firestarter gel (methane pellet or
paraffin paper or 2 tablespoons of methylated spirits) into the
burner pot.

NEVER USE ALCOHOL OR GASOLINE AS A

FIRESTARTER.

Light with a long taper or wadded piece of paper. Immedi­ately replace the catalyser components. FIGURE 10. Ensure
that the top is centred.

4. Set the control knob to ‘0’. FIGURE 11. Depress safety lever

FIGURE 12

6. Allow 10 to 15 minutes of low burn for the flames and chimney draft to stabilize. The catalyser should glow

red before changing to a higher setting.

7. The stove may now be adjusted to the desired heat setting, usually between 2 and 4. Never switch straight

from 1 to 6. A longer burner life will be achieved if the regulator is moved one setting at a time leaving approx.

5 minutes between settings.
If the fire goes out, return the regulator control knob to the ‘0’ setting. Let the burner cool off completely before

repeating the lighting procedure. Clean out any oil before relighting.

NEVER OPERATE THE STOVE WITH THE DOOR OPEN OR AJAR.

5. Turn the regulator control knob to the # 1 dial setting.

SHUT DOWN

1. Turn the control knob to 0 setting.

2. Lift the safety lever.

3. Turn off the oil tank fuel supply valve.
The oil tank fuel supply valve should always be shut if the oil stove is not in operation.

ADJUSTMENTS

OIL FLOW ADJUSTMENTS

Always burn the stove on low for at least 15 minutes before
attempting to adjust the flow.

TURN THE SCREW ONLY A QUARTER TURN AT A

TIME. WAIT 10 TO 15 MINUTES BETWEEN ADJUST-

MENTS TO ALLOW THE FIRE TO STABILISE.

The oil flow setting is done by the manufacturer and nor­mally should not require any adjustment. If the burner fails to
respond to the control knob settings, other possible causes
should be checked (chimney draft, dirty filter or the oil supply
line) prior to attempting to adjust the carburetor.

A

ADJUSTMENT AT MINIMUM SPEED: Turn the control knob

‘A’ to the # 1 dial setting and allow the burner to run for a few
moments. The flame must completely cover the bottom of
the burner pot and the catalyser should glow red. If the flame
is too small, the oil stove will quickly soot up. Turn the set
screw ‘B’ FIGURE 12 (item 16, Figure 9), located on the top of
the carburetor, clockwise with a screwdriver to increase the flow
of oil.
If the flame is too high, reduce the oil flow by turning the set screw counter-clockwise. The flames should be
blue with occasional yellow tips. The catalyser should glow red.

FIGURE 12

C

B

ADJUSTMENT AT MAXIMUM SPEED: Gradually turn the control knob ‘A’ to dial setting # 6 and allow the burner

to run for a few moments. The flame should be in a cone form with the top level with the upper part of the door.
If the flame is too low, the oil flow rate should be increased by turning the set screw ‘C’ FIGURE 12,
(item 17, Figure 9) on the carburetor counter-clockwise. If the flame is too high, turn the screw clockwise. The
flames should have only occasional contact with the burner ring. The bottom 2” (50 mm) of the flames should be
blue in colour with the rest yellow.

CHIMNEY DRAFT ADJUSTMENT

A volume of air, depending on height and diameter of the flue system, is contained in the chimney. This air starts
to rise as it is heated by the burning stove and begins the draft cycle. The amount of draft depends on the
volume of air within the chimney system and the temperature of that air. Too large a flue could cause cooling of
the flue gases, resulting in a poor draft and stove performance.
The stove is equipped with a draft regulator to ensure a constant and stable air intake despite external varia­tions in wind strengths and other factors.
Adjustments to the draft with the regulator should be carried out when the chimney is hot (after a minimum 30
minutes of operations). See Page 4, General Information, for chimney draft requirements.

OVERHEATING

Adjusting the control knob to a high setting prematurely allows too much oil to enter the burning pot. This and/
or the lack of sufficient draft creates a fire intensity which in turn creates vibrations. Similarly, if the oil stove or
the chimney connector start to glow red, the appliance is being overheated. Turn off the oil supply until the fire
has decreased to a normal steady burn.
Adjustments, if any, to your oil stove have been made by your installer. Do not attempt any further adjustments
yourselves but report any failures or shortcomings in the stove’s performance to your authorized dealer.

CHIMNEY INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE

The chimney and the chimney connector must be inspected at least once every 3 months during the heating
season to ascertain whether there has been a buildup of soot in the system. If a soot buildup has occurred, it
should be removed to reduce the risk of chimney fires. The chimney is to be swept at least once a year. It is also
recommended that prior to every heating season the entire system be professionally inspected, cleaned and
repaired where necessary.
