Encore Multi-Fuel Heater

recommended only to add briquettes to the level of the front grate.

4.Close the damper.

5.When the surface temperature reaches 230° C (450° F), adjust the air control for the amount of heat you desire.

NOTE: If the remaining coal bed is relatively thick and if wood fuel is well seasoned, it is possible to add fresh fuel (smaller pieces first), close the door and damper, and reset the primary air thermostat for the desired heat output.

CAUTION: The Encore Multi-Fuel will be hot while in operation. Keep children, clothing and furniture away. Contact may cause skin burns.

DO NOT OVERFIRE THIS HEATER. Overfiring may cause a house fire, or can result in perma- nent damage to the stove. If an exterior part of the Endore MF glows, you are overfiring.

Ash Disposal

You should remove ash before it reaches the top of the ash pan. Check the level at least once a day. Every few days, clear any ash from the outer edges of the firebox. Most of the ash will fall through the grate. Slice or stir the ash with a shovel or poker so that it falls through the grate slots.

IMPORTANT: Check the level of ash in the ash pan before reloading the stove. If the ash level is close to the top edge of the pan, empty the pan according to this procedure:

•Open the damper.

•Open the griddle or front doors, and use a shovel or poker to stir excess ash through the ash slots in the grate down into the ash pan.

•Close the griddle or doors, and unlatch the ash door. It will pivot, swinging the ash pan out of the stove.

•Slide the cover onto the pan, making sure it is se- curely closed. (Fig. 28)

•Remove the ash pan, making sure to keep it level.

•To keep the cover from sliding off and to keep ash from falling on the floor, do not tilt the ash pan for- ward.

If the stove is in operation, close the ash door while disposing of the ash.

•Properly dispose of the ash in a metal container with a tight-fitting lid. Store the container outdoors away from all combustible material.

Fig. 27 Turn the handle to the ash pan compartment clock- wise to open and counterclockwise to close.

•Return the ash pan to its original position in the stove, and close and latch the ash door.

•Do not operate the stove with the ash door open. This will result in over-firing, and could cause dam- age to the stove, void the warranty, or even lead to a house fire.

Empty the ash pan regularly, typically every one to three days. The frequency will vary depending on how you operate your Encore: ash will accumulate faster at higher heat outputs.

Remove ash frequently and place it outdoors in a metal container with a tight-fitting lid. Place the closed container of ash on a noncombustible floor or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials, pend- ing final disposal. If the ash is disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, it should be kept in the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.

You can use wood ash as a garden fertilizer.

CAUTION: Never use your household or shop vacuum cleaner to remove ash from the stove; always remove and dispose of the ash properly.
