Clean the Griddle Before Use
At the factory we coat the griddle with vegetable oil to
prevent rusting while the stove is in transit and storage.
Remove the oil with a dry rag or paper towel before you
use the stove.
Set Up the Stove
Remove the griddle, front grate bar, the bottom grate,
the side bricks, and the ash pan from inside the stove.
Place a protective pad on the floor, arrange some sec-
tions of 4 x 4 lumber on the pad for support, and care-
fully tip the stove back onto them.
Remove and discard the four large slot-head screws
from the stove bottom (Fig. 26) and install the stove
legs, using the hex head bolts from the parts bag. Use
3/8” washers with three of the legs; the door/damper
handle holder installs in place of a washer on the right
front leg. Position the holder so the hole to accept the
handle nub faces out from the right side of the stove.
Tighten the bolts firmly.

Install the Bottom Heat Shield
To install the bottom heat shield, loosen the leg bolts,
and slip the bottom heat shield C-clips onto the bolts.
Orient the heat shield so that the longest (10³⁄₄”) edge is
at the front of the stove. (Fig. 27) Attach the heat shield
to the C-clips with the wing nuts and then tighten the
leg bolts.
Storing the Handle
Use the removable handle to open or close the front
doors, or to change the position of the damper. After
use, remove the handle so it will not get hot, and store it
in the handle holder installed behind the right front leg.

Reversing the Flue Collar
You can reverse the flue collar by removing the two
screws that attach the collar to the back of the stove, as
in Figure 29. Be sure the gasket around the flue collar
opening is in position when you screw the collar back
on to the stove.
Attach the Griddle Handle
Install the handle on the griddle. Place the griddle
upside down at the edge of a flat surface and assemble
the handle as shown. (Fig. 30)
With the handle pointing 45° from its final position,
tighten the nut as far as possible with pliers. Move the
handle to its final position while still holding the nut with
the pliers.
