1. Unscrew the (4) phillips screws at the bottom of the
crate. Remove crate.

2. Remove box, cover plastic and paper. Remove the coal
bar, baffle, wrapped flue flange and legs from inside the
firebox. TO REMOVE BAFFLE: life up and forward until
the bottom is free from the rear air plate. Once the baffle
is clear from the air plate remove from the firebox.

3. Close door and gently set stove on it’s back. NOTE: It’s
best to lay stove on a raised surface so the crate bottom is
off the ground when the stove is on it’s back.

4. Using a 10mm socket remove the (4) bolts on the bot­tom of the crate. Remove crate bottom.

5. Unwrap the stove’s legs and use the given bolts and
washers to secure the legs to the bottom of the stove. If
you are installing the direct-air box bolt this on next. The
direct-air box gets bolted on over the primary & second­ary air gate valve. Stand stove up on it’s legs.

ASSEMBLY / UNBOXING

6. Using a phillips screwdriver install the flue flange.
If installing the flue flange on the top of the stove use
the short hardware that’s installed with the flue flange
cover plate (#14 on parts diagram). If you use the longer
hardware the baffle will not fit. Install the flue flange
cover plate on whichever opening the flue flange is not
installed on.

7. Reinstall the baffle. Lift up and forward until bottom of
the baffle is above the rear air plate then set on top of the
rear air plate.

8. Reinstall coal bar.

9. Once you stove is assembled it’s a good idea to slide in
a small section of pipe and do a initial fire outside. As the
paint cures and oils from manufacturing process burn­off the stove will smoke. It’s best to do this outside your
space. If you do the initial fire inside it’s wise to keep win­dows and doors open.

INSTALLATION

If you have any doubts about installing your small wood
stove it’s highly recommended to get a professional in­staller. For safe installation maintain the following clear­ances from combustibles:

CLEARANCES

Sides: 16” from combustibles
Rear: 18” from combustibles

Single Wall Stove Pipe: 18” from combustibles
Insulated Chimney Pipe: 2” from combustibles

*Clearances can be reduced by 2/3 with a non-combustible
heat shield.

HEAT SHIELD

A basic heat shield should be composed of non-combusti­ble material (metal or cement board) and have at least a
1” air gap behind, above, below and beside the shield. A
heat shield can be as simple as a piece of sheet metal with
a 1” air gap behind and around. The, “air wash” behind
the shield is very effective but there has to be at least a
1” gap on all sides of the shield. Ceramic spacers can be
purchased for installing your shield.
