HEATER OPERATION

IMPORTANT: DO NOT USE THE HEATER UNTIL A PROFESSIONAL INSPECTION HAS BEEN MADE OF THE ENTIRE INSTALLATION BY YOUR LOCAL FIRE DEPARTMENT, FIRE MARSHAL OR BUILDING CODE INSPEC- TOR. INSTALL A SMOKE DETECTOR ON EACH FLOOR OF YOUR HOME; IN CASE OF ACCIDENTAL FIRE FROM ANY CAUSE IT CAN PROVIDE TIME FOR ESCAPE.

This heater must be operated as outlined in this manual or a serious fire may occur.

THE PAINT ON THE EXTERIOR OF THE FIREBOX WILL GO THROUGH A CURING PROCESS DURING THE FIRST FIRING OF THE HEATER AND WILL EMIT SMOKE AND ODOR. BE PREPARED FOR THIS BY RAISING A WIN- DOW OR OPENING A DOOR TO PROVIDE VENTILATION.

The first three times the heater is fired, the fire should be regulated so as to increase in intensity gradually to allow the painted components to cure slowly and to allow the other components to adjust to their expanded size.

Be sure the room is adequately ventilated and the flue unobstructed before beginning a fire in the heater.

TO BUILD A FIRE

1.Set the heater’s thermostat control knob to the “Hi” position. See figure 9.

2.Open the feed door (see figure 10) and lay paper and kindling on the rate in sufficient quantities to ensure good ignition.

WARNING: NEVER USE GASOLINE, GASOLINE-TYPE LANTERN FUEL, KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID, OR SIMILAR LIQUIDS TO START OR “FRESHEN UP” A FIRE IN THIS HEATER. KEEP ALL SUCH LIQUIDS WELL AWAY FROM THE HEATER WHILE IT IS IN USE. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS WARNING COULD CAUSE AN EXPLOSION.

3.Light the fire.

4.Close the feed door (see figure 10).

5.Add larger pieces of wood as the fire gains in intensity. As soon as the fire is established, wood may be added as desired.

6.MAKE SURE THAT THE FEED DOOR AND CABINET DOOR ARE SECURELY CLOSED. CAUTION: OPERAT ING THE HEATER WITH THE ASH DOOR OPEN CREATES AN ABNORMAL FIRING CONDITION WHICH CAN OVER HEAT THE HEATER, CHIMNEY AND ADJACENT COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS. THIS CAN DRASTICALLY SHORTEN THE HEATER’S LIFE AND VOID THE FACTORY WARRANTY.

7.Set the heater’s thermostat control knob to a point midway between “Hi” and “Lo”. If the house or heating situation requires a higher or lower setting to obtain the desired amount of heat, adjust the thermostat control knob appropri ately.
