The blower may be used to affect heat output (i.e.: to reduce heat output, turn the blower down).

Route the power cord in a location where it will not come in contact with the appliance or become hot.

Re-Loading the Stove

Follow the directions below to minimize smoke spillage while re-loading the stove.

1Push the air control all the way in (high burn).

2Open the door slightly. Let the airflow inside the firebox to stabilize before opening the doors fully.

3Load wood onto the fire.

Overnight Burn

This stove is large enough to accommodate burn times up to eight hours. Follow the steps below to achieve an overnight burn.

1Move the air control to high burn and let the stove become hot (burn for approximately 15 minutes).

2Load as much wood as possible. Use large pieces if possible.

3Let the stove burn on high for 15 minutes to keep the stove hot, then turn the air control to low.

4In the morning the stove should still be hot, with embers in the coal bed. Stir the coals and load small pieces of wood to re-ignite the fire, if desired.

Differences if chimney height and draft may lower overall burn times.

Normal Operating Sounds

Creaks and Clicks:

The 3/16" and 5/16" steel may creak or click when the stove heats up and cools down - this is normal.

Blower Sounds:

The blower will make a slight "humm" as it pushes air through the stove.

Hint:

Make sure the leveling bolts on legs are extended - preventing the hearth from amplifying any vibrations.
