• Before beginning your installation, consult with your local building code agency or fi re offi cials and
insurance representative to ensure compliance.

• Non-toxic smoke will be emitted during the paint curing process, to help dissipate the smoke open a
window near the appliance.

• Remove any dust or debris off the top of the appliance before fi ring the appliance as the paint will be-
come soft as the appliance heats up and will harden as the appliance cures. To cure the paint on your
appliance burn your appliance moderately hot during the fi rst few fi res.

• To keep the gasket from sticking to the appliance as the paint is curing, periodically open the door
every 5-10 minutes.

• For the fi rst two weeks use generous amounts of fuel and burn the appliance with the damper wide
open for an hour as the appliance goes through a process of eliminating moisture in the steel and fi re-
bricks. The initial heat output will be reduced while the moisture is being drawn from the appliance and
it will be necessary to build several hot fi res to remove this moisture. DURING THIS PROCESS DO

NOT OVERFIRE THE APPLIANCE. REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF AIR COMING INTO THE APPLI­ANCE IF THE APPLIANCE OR CHIMNEY BECOMES RED.

2.4 GENERAL INFORMATION

!

WARNING

DO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE WITHOUT THE PEDESTAL INSTALLED.

Your appliance has been specifi cally designed over many months of research to meet the 1990 U.S.A. EPA particu-
late emission standards and have been extensively tested in Canadian and American laboratories. This system is
the most effi cient, simple and trouble free we know and works as follows:

The chimney vent system used on your wood burning appliance should be designed with the least amount of
restriction possible to enable the exhaust products to easily fl ow through it. Chimney vent systems that are too
short or too long can also have an adverse affect on the fl ow of exhaust through it. The wood burning appliance
and chimney vent system also require a suffi cient supply of combustion air not only to support the combustion in the
combustion chamber but to replace the exhaust leaving it so it can fl ow freely up through the vent system and out
into the atmosphere. It is the correct balance of combustion air and the chimney vent system that will ensure the
appliance provides you with its optimum performance.

Combustion air enters through two holes in the bottom
which can be adjusted by a single air control. Air from
the front hole goes up on either side of the door into a
preheating airwash located across the top and then down
the window to feed the fi re and also to ensure that the
glass remains clean. Air from this hole also feeds directly
into the combustion chamber at hearth level. Secondary
air from the rear hole travels up the back in the secondary
air housing to the manifold located at the top and shoots
out laterally to oxidize the gases below the smoke exit.
The combustion chamber is lined with high temperature
fi rebrick on 2 sides, the back and across the bottom, with
a layer of fi bre baffl es at the top to maintain a high tem-
perature in the combustion chamber so that gases mixing
with the preheated air from the secondary air manifold
tube are easily ignited and burned. The stove sides and
back are shielded to direct the heat upwards and for­wards into the room.

INTAKE

Be sure to provide suffi cient combustion air. There are many other appliances in your home competing for air such
as: a kitchen range hood, forced air heating devices or a bathroom exhaust fan.

W415-0892 / 03.05.10

We suggest that our woodburning hearth products
be installed and serviced by professionals who are
certified in the U.S. by the National Fireplace
Institue® (NFI) as NFI Woodburning Specialists or
who are certified in Canada by
Wood Energy Technical
Training (WETT).

Expansion / contraction noises during heating up and cooling down cycles are normal and to be expected.

After extended periods of non-operation such as following a vacation or a warm weather season, the appliance may
emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is caused by dust particles on the fi rebox burning off. Open a window to suf-
fi ciently ventilate the room.

CALIFORNIA PROP 65 WARNING:

Use of this product may produce smoke which contains chemicals
known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other
reproductive harm.

If optional ash drawer is purchased, ensure that the ash dump door is
tightly closed, allow the door to snap shut dislodging anything (ashes or
pieces of coal) that may be stuck in the opening.

If outside air is utilized, you should never experience a shortage of combustion air. If you choose not to utilize out­side air and experience draft or smoking problems, you may need to open a door, a window or otherwise provide
some method of supplying combustion air to the appliance.

EXHAUST FAN OPERATING ETC., DANGEROUS FUMES AND SMOKE FROM THE OPERATING APPLI-

The following are signs that a fresh air kit may be required:

• When there is combustion present: Wood burns poorly, smoke spills, back-draft takes place and your
chimney does not draw steadily.

• In the winter there is too much condensation on the windows.

• Opening a window seems to alleviate the above symptoms.

• A ventilation system is installed in the house.

• Other devices are present that exhaust house air.

Your appliance may be hooked up with a factory built or masonry chimney. If you are using a factory built chim­ney, it must comply with ULCS629 (Canada) or UL103 (USA) standards. It must therefore be a 6" HT Type
(2100°F) chimney. It is extremely important that it be installed according to the manufacturer's specifi cations.
The manufacturer's installation instructions and specifi ed clearances should always be followed in accordance
with local and national codes. In Canada the CSA B365 and the CSA C22.1 installation codes are to be fol­lowed. In the USA the ANSI NFPA 70 and ANSI NFPA 211 installation codes are to be followed.

Chimney and chimney connector must be in good condition and kept clean.
