CARE AND OPERATI0N

ASH DRAWER

The large ash drawer located on the left side of the ped- estal is designed to make cleaning easier by containing the ashes in a removable drawer.

WARNING: DO NOT OPERATE THIS STOVE WITHOUT THE ASH DRAWER PROPERLY INSTALLED AND SE- CURED (SEALED), AS THIS WILL PRODUCE EX- TREME TEMPERATURES, RESULTING IN OVERFIR- ING. THE ASH DRAWER GASKET PROVIDES AN IM- PORTANT SEAL, AND MUST BE MAINTAINED (SEE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS ON PAGE 19). OVERFIRING CAN RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE AP- PLIANCE OR A HOUSE FIRE. OPERATION WITH THE ASH DRAWER OPEN OR AJAR, NULLIFIES THE SAFETY LISTING AND VOIDS THE WARRANTY.

CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR

How it works: From 5 to 30 percent of the chemical en- ergy contained in every log escapes up the chimney when wood is burned in a conventional stove. The cata- lytic combustor is designed to make use of this energy, converting it into useful heat as it lessens chimney creo- sote build-up and air pollution. The catalytic combustor consists of a durable temperature resistant ceramic com- position, which is extruded into a cellular, or honeycomb, configuration. After extrusion, this ceramic monolith is fired and then covered with a noble-metal catalyst. When wood smoke contacts this catalyst, chemical changes occur that causes the smoke to ignite at temperatures around 600° F. Normally, smoke will ignite and burn only at temperatures around 1000° F.

CATALYTIC BYPASS DAMPER CONTROL

The operating handle of your Bypass Damper Control is located on the front of the Stove Flue Collar. By moving the Bypass Damper Control the operator can route the exhaust either through the Catalytic Combustor (pushed in) or directly up the flue (pulled out). When starting a fire or refueling, the bypass damper control handle should be pulled out. Once the fire is established it should be pushed in.

PRIMARY AIR CONTROL

The primary combustion air delivery is controlled by the Primary Air Control Assembly. The control handle is lo- cated on the lower right side (front) of the stove - see illustration below. The heat output can be controlled by sliding the handle to a higher or lower heat output set- ting. The fuel, the amount of heat and burn times de- sired, the type of installation are all variables that will affect the control setting. The same control settings in a variety of installations will produce different results. You will need to try different settings so you can learn how much heat to expect and how long the fire will burn.

Primary Air Control Handle

Slide the control to the left for a lower burn

rate, to the right for a higher burn rate.

You will generally want to set the primary air control on low or medium. The stove is safe burning on any setting as long as combustibles are kept at the specified safe distances.
