RE-LOADING THE FIREPLACE

When refueling open the door slowly to prevent smoke spillage. Use a pair of long fireplace gloves when feeding the fire. Keep a small steel shovel nearby to use as a poker and to remove ashes. Do not store wood within 4 feet (1m) of the fireplace.

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

1.Move the air control to high.

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

3.Load wood to the top of the cast retainers and burn at a medium low setting.

FLASH FIRES

A flash fire is a small fire burned quickly when you don't need much heat. After your kindling has "caught", load at least 3 pieces of wood, stacked loosely. Burn with the draft control fully open or closed only slightly.

OVERNIGHT BURN

This fireplace is large enough to accomodate overnight, 14 hour burns. Follow these steps below to achieve an overnight burn.

1.Get the fireplace hot by moving the air control to high and letting the fireplace burn for 15 minutes.

2.Load your larger pieces of wood compactly, packed close enough to prevent the flames from penetrating it completely.

3.After approximately 30 minutes, depending on the size of the load, close the draft control completely making sure that the fire is not extinguished.

4.In the morning the fireplace 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.

Note: Differences in chimney height and draft may lower overall burn times.

DO NOT OVERFIRE THE FIREPLACE! Overfiring can occur by: a) burning large amounts of smaller wood pieces. b) vigorously burning large loads of wood with the draft control on "HIGH" (fully open) for long periods of time (one or two hours).

ASH REMOVAL PROCEDURES

A bed of ashes approximately 1 inch deep should be left on the firebox bottom to help maintain a hot charcoal bed. When the fire has burned down and cooled, remove any excess ashes. To remove the ash, follow the directions below.

1.After the last coal has extinguished, let the fireplace cool at least two hours.

2.Open the fireplace doors.

3.Scoop the ash from the firebox into a metal, airtight, con- tainer with a lid. Cover the container with the lid and move the container away from the fireplace to ensure the ashes cool. Dispose of the ashes.

Warning: Improper disposal of ashes result in fires. Do not discard ashes in cardboard boxes, dump in back yards, or store in garages.

Note: If using a vacuum to clean up ashes, be sure the ashes are entirely cooled. Using a vacuum to clean up warm ashes could cause a fire inside the vacuum.
