Operation
Attach Handles
The fallaway handle is used to open and close the front
doors. Remove after each use so the handle will not get
hot. Keep in convenient location for each use. (Fig. 27)
Assemble the primary air control and damper handles
by passing the screw through the wood shaft and into
the bright metal hub. Tighten carefully until snug. Do not
overtighten. Wood handle could crack. (Fig. 28)

EWF30 Controls
Three controls regulate the performance of the EWF30
fireplace: A primary air control supplies oxygen for the
fire, the damper directs air flow within the fireplace and
a variable-speed fan control, or rheostat, regulates the
warm air flow into the room. (Fig. 29)
Primary Air Control
A single air control regulates the amount of heat the fire
will produce and how long it will burn.

The primary air control is located in the upper left
corner of the unit. (Fig. 27) It is the primary source of
air for starting, maintaining, and reviving the fire.
Generally, more air entering the fireplace makes the fire
burn hotter and faster, while less air prolongs the burn.
The air supply is open to the maximum when the control
lever is pushed down, and closed when pulled up. To
vary the burn rate, adjust the control to the desired posi-
tion in between these extremes; opening the primary air
control makes the unit burn hotter. Closing the control
slows the unit down. You may adjust to any position you
desire.
The Damper
The damper directs air flow within the fireplace.
The damper is operated by moving the lever located in
the upper right corner of the unit. It has two positions:
Open to start or revive the fire and closed, for normal
operation and to control burn rate. The damper is open
when the lever is pulled out and closed when pushed in.
There are no intermediate settings for the damper.
NOTE: Always open the damper before opening the
doors. Close damper to set burn rate.
