Installation
Place the stove in the intended position and lift out the hotplate, checking that the joint between the underside of the hob and the top of the stove is intact. Any joints which have opened should be made good with the fire cement provided.
Replace the hotplate making sure that it is seated evenly on the soft rope and that it is approximately 0.1” (1.5mm) higher than the enamelled top plate, with an equal space all round. Fit the flue chamber which should have a rope seal already installed. The flue chamber is screwed to the stove making a good seal as any air leak at this point will impede the working of the stove.

Flue Chamber Box is located in Main Oven compartment during shipment.
Remove all bubble wrap and protective film from inside of oven doors prior to stove ignition.
Refer to Fig. 7 for definition of terms and installation orientation of Flue Chamber.
a.Remove two screws (1/4” x 20) and fiber washers from oven top cutout.
b.Prior to positioning Flue Chamber, ensure that chamber damper is in its full open position to allow for access to screw hole locations.
c.Position Flue Chamber on stove top ensuring that it is nested as close as possible to the stove top, to allow for a minimal gap - front and side.
d.Install fiber washers and 1/4” x 20 screws - ensuring fasteners are tightly securing Flue Chamber.
e.Close Flue Chamber door.
Open the firebox and ashpit doors and check that the reciprocating bottom grate bars are in position. Make sure the three restriction plates are in place on the bottom grate
-one at the front and two at the rear. The riddling lever will not operate with restriction plates in place - it is intended for cleaning purposes only.
Be sure to read the sections on clearances, floor protection and chimneys before actively starting the installation.
A woodburning stove radiates heat in all directions. Heat directed toward living areas in front of the stove is usually very welcome. However, heat radiating in other directions will not be as welcome if it results in overheating nearby walls, ceilings and floors.
An important part of planning a safe installation is to be sure that the combustible material located near your stove does not overheat.
Clearance is the distance between your stove and stovepipe and nearby walls, ceilings and floors.
If there is adequate clearance, then the nearby surfaces will not overheat.
It is very important that you match the stove pipe you are
using to the clearances specified. Failure to do so will result in an unsafe condition.
Unit must be placed on a continuous
Air flowing between the stove pipe and nearby surfaces carries away heat. Do not fill the empty space with any insulating material.

Handrail:
The handrail brackets are held on the front ends of the stove
Endcaps, brackets and hardware, referenced in Fig. 1 are located in the lower warming drawer during shipment. Handrail is located on Stovetop in a round tube during shipment.
Do not hang combustible material on handrail during stove operation.
Warning
The ashpit and firebox door must be closed during normal use, except when lighting or refuelling
Clearances must be maintained at all combustible material. These include doors, trim, furniture, drapes, newspapers and clothes. See local codes for a description of combustible material.
Make sure that no floor or chimney supports will be cut due to chimney installation.
Contact local building officials about restrictions and installation inspection in your area.
