5.6 SAFETY

Whenever a loading door is opened, it should always be cracked slightly to allow oxygen to enter and burn any gasses that may be present. Failure to do this may result in a sudden ignition of the gasses, leading to an explosion.

A Stove should never be filled with excess coal to where the exhaust is impeded. Burning coal gener- ates carbon monoxide. If the flue gas exit is blocked, the carbon monoxide can be forced out of the stove and into your living space, with fatal consequences.

With the exception of start-up or freshening a fire, the ash pan door should never be left open. NEVER LEAVE THE STOVE UNATTENDED WITH A DOOR OPEN. Serious damage to the stove can occur from over-heating.

Coal stoves should not be installed in a chimney that has a history of down-draft or flow reversal problems. These conditions can cause improper draft, resulting in carbon monoxide entering the living space rather than being drawn up the chimney. REMEMBER! COAL GASES ARE TOXIC!

To clean the chimney, use a stiff brush with an extend- able handle. Start the brush from the top of the chim- ney and run it down through the flue. Continue brush- ing until the entire length of the chimney is cleaned. The debris will collect at the bottom of the chimney. Open the cleanout door or other access point and sweep the collection into a metal container. The con- nector pipe can be brushed also, remove it from the stove if possible, to eliminate pushing the debris into the stove’s spiral chamber.

Ashes should be kept in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a non-combustible floor or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be kept in the closed con- tainer until all cinders have thoroughly cooled. Do not use this same container for garbage, debris, or lawn waste.

Sulfur dioxide, sulfur trioxide and other products of coal combustion may corrode stainless steel and masonry chimneys. Coal with high sulfur content will destroy chimneys especially fast if soot is left in the flue for extended periods. It is important to clean your chimney regularly.

6.1PERIODIC AND EVERYDAY MAINTENANCE

Blower: Monthly, remove the blower and clean the fan. If there are pets in your house, you may want to check this more frequently.

Grates: Keep ash pan emptied. Twice a day.

Chimney and connector: Avoid chimney fires. On a regular schedule, check for creosote and soot build up in the venting and the baffle area of the stove. These areas must be kept clean.

Steel brushes are the safest for cleaning metal surfac- es. Salt solutions and other chemicals may damage the metal surfaces.

This is the Spiral Chamber which must be cleaned periodically.

Secondary Air enters through the

Air -wash opening in the glass frame.

Primary Air enters through the draft control.
