For further information on using your heater
safely, obtain a copy of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) publication "Using
Coal and Wood Stoves Safely" NFPA No. HS10-1978. The address of the NFPA is
Batterymarch Park, MA 02269.
For more information on a Canadian Installation, obtain a copy of CAN/CSA - B365 - M91
Installation Code for Solid-Fuel-Burning Appliances and Equipment.
Disposal of Ashes- Place ashes in a metal
container with a tight fitting lid. Keep the closed
container on a non-combustible floor or on the
ground, well away from all combustible materials. Keep the ashes in the closed container
until all cinders have thoroughly cooled. The
ashes may be buried in the ground or picked up
by a refuse collector.
CAUTION- The special paints used on your
heater may give off some smoke while they are
curing during the first few fires. Build small fires
at first.
CARING FOR PAINTED PARTS- This heater
has a painted jacket, which is durable but it will
not stand rough handling or abuse. When
installing your heater, use care in handling.
Clean with soap and warm water when heater
is not hot. DO NOT use any acids or scouring
soap, as these wear and dull the finish. PAINT
DISCOLORATION WILL OCCUR IF THE
HEATER IS OVERFIRED. FOLLOW OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY.
All persons, especially children, should be
alerted to hazards from high surface temperatures and kept away while in operation. Small
children should not be left unsupervised when
in the room with the heater.

Place the heater on solid masonry or solid concrete. When
the heater is used on a combustible floor, use an Underwriters Listed floor protector. The floor protector must comply
with UL Standards(USA) and CAN/ULC S627(Canada).The
base should extend at least 16" beyond the door of the
heater and should extend under the flue pipe if it is elbowed
towards a wall
(Fig. 5).
Uncrate and/or unpack the heater, removing all pack-
1.
ing material, being careful not to dispose of the Parts
Bag.
Open the front feed door and remove the parts from
2.
inside the stove. You should find the following: Hearth
Plate (1); Solid Damper (1); Lids (2); Pivoting Top (1);
Lid Support (1); Parts Package (1) containg nuts,
bolts, door handle, door latch and securing harware;
Legs (4); Cast Iron Collar (1); Cast Iron Damper (1);
Baffle Assembly (1); Lid Lifter (1).
Place cardboard or other soft material adjacent to the
3.
stove and carefully turn the stove onto its top side
(bottom facing up).
Attach hearth plate to the front of the stove in its proper
4.
location.
Attach both rear and front legs to the stove. Tighten
5.
the nuts and bolts securely. The stove may now be
CAREFULLY turned over to stand on its four legs.
Attach the baffle assembly and flue collar to the stove
6.
by inserting the baffle studs thru the two holes located
on the top of the rear of the stove; place the flue collar
over the studs and mount using the proper nuts and
washers. Place lid support and lid in position on
pivoting top. Place the slide damper in position on the
top of the hearth plate and under the feed door, and
secure with screw in slot.
After consulting the installation instructions for mini-
7.
mum clearances to combustibles, locate your floor
protector accordingly and carefully place the stove in
your selected location. Install stove pipe, elbows and
thimble as necessary, utilizing either a recently cleaned
and inspected masonry chimney (properly lined) or a
UL/ULC Listed chimney. Insure that the damper
provided is installed in the flue collar.
Again, check the following illustrations and be sure
8.
you have the clearances shown from the heater and
the connector pipe to combustible surfaces. If you
have a solid brick or stone wall behind your heater,
you may place your heater as close as you wish to the
wall. However, if the wall is only faced with brick or
stone, consider it a combustible wall.
If your chimney drafts excessively, purchase and use
9.
a Barometric Draft Regulator (DR6 available from
factory).
The chimney connection should be as short as pos-
10.
sible, and the heater must have its own flue. Do not
connect this unit to a chimney flue serving other
appliances.
Use three sheet metal screws in each stove pipe and
11.
or elbow joint to firmly hold the pipe together.
Do not install this heater in a mobile home or trailer.
12.
Check your local building and insurance codes. The
13.
installation must comply with their rulings.
