Safety Rules

SAFETY NOTICE: If this heater is not properly installed a house re may result. For your safety, follow the in-

stallation directions. Contact local building or re ofcials about restrictions and installation inspection require­ments in your area.

Read these rules and the instructions carefully.

1. Check with local codes. The installation must comply with
their rulings. Observe closely the clearances to combustibles
(page 4).

2. Do not install this heater in a mobile home or trailer.

3. Always connect this heater to a chimney and vent to the
outside. Never vent to another room or inside a building.

4. Do not connect a wood burning heater to a Type B gas
vent. This is not safe and is prohibited by the National Fire
Protection Association Code. This heater requires approved
masonry or UL Listed Residential Type and Building Heating
Appliance Chimney. Use a 6" diameter chimney, or larger,
that is high enough to give a good draft.

5. Be sure that your chimney is safely constructed and in good
repair. Have the chimney inspected by the Fire Department

or a qualied inspector. Your insurance company may be
able to recommend a qualied inspector.

6. Inspect chimney connector and chimney twice monthly
during the heating season for any deposit of creosote or
soot which must be removed (see Chimney Maintenance,
page 9).

9. 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. HS-10-1978. The address of the NFPA is Batterymarch
Park, MA 02269.

10. Disposal of Ashes - Place ashes in a metal container with a

tight tting lid. Keep the closed container on a noncombus­tible oor 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.

11. CAUTION - The special paints used on your heater may

give off some smoke while they are curing during the rst
few res. Build small res at rst.

12. 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 nish. PAINT DISCOLORATION WILL OCCUR

IF THE HEATER IS OVERFIRED. FOLLOW OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY.

7. Provide air for combustion from outside the house into the
room where the heater is located. If the intake is not in the
same room, air must have free access in to the room.

8. To prevent injury, do not allow anyone to use this heater
who is unfamiliar with the correct operation of the heater.

13. 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.

14. Keep the area adjacent to the heater free from all combus­tible materials, gasoline, and other ammable vapors.

CAUTION! Do not touch the heater until it has cooled.

NOTE:

FOR YOUR SAFETY, WE RECOMMEND INSTALLING SMOKE DETECTORS IN YOUR HOME IF NOT ALREADY

INSTALLED.

Installation

Place the heater on solid masonry or solid concrete. When the

heater is used on a combustible oor, use an Underwriters Listed
oor protector. The oor protector must comply with UL Standards.

The base should extend at least 16" beyond the door side of

the heater and should extend under the ue pipe if it is elbowed

towards a wall. (Fig. 5).

1. Uncrate and/or unpack the heater, removing all packing mate­rial, being careful not to dispose of the Parts Bag.

2. Open the front feed door and remove the parts from inside the

stove. You should nd the following: Hearth Plate (1); Solid

Damper (1); Lids (2); Pivoting Top (1); Lid Support (1); Parts
Package (1) containing nuts, bolts, door handle, door latch
and securing hardware; Legs (4); Cast Iron Collar (1); Cast

Iron Damper (1); Bafe Assembly (1); Lid Lifter (1).

3. Place cardboard or other soft material adjacent to the stove
and carefully turn the stove onto its top side (bottom facing
up).

4. Attach hearth plate to the front of the stove in its proper loca­tion.

5. Attach both rear and front legs to the stove. Tighten the nuts
and bolts securely. The stove may now be CAREFULLY
turned over to stand on it's four legs.

6. Attach the bafe assembly and ue collar to the stove by
inserting the bafe studs thru the two holes located on the
top of the rear of the stove; place the ue 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.

7. After consulting the installation instructions for minimum clear-

ances to combustibles, locate your oor 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 Listed chimney. Insure that the damper provided

is installed in the ue collar.

8. Again, check the following illustrations and be sure 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.

9. If your chimney drafts excessively, purchase and use a Baro­metric Draft Regulator (DR6 available from factory).

10. The chimney connection should be as short as possible, and

the heater must have its own ue. Do not connect this unit to
a chimney ue serving other appliances.

11. Use three sheet metal screws in each stove pipe and or elbow

joint to rmly hold the pipe together.

12. Do not install this heater in a mobile home or trailer.

13. Check your local building and insurance codes. The installa­tion must comply with their rulings.
