Always remember to open the bypass damper when
you are loading, this allows the exhaust gases to pass
directly into the ue outlet and reduces the chance of
smoke spillage into the room.
 Once you have prepared and maintained
a thick charcoal bed, and the secondary combustion is
established, you should be able to reload the stove at
any time by simply opening the bypass damper, then
the load door, adding fuel and closing the door then the
damper. This depends on coal bed size, load size and
moisture content of fuel.
 Before reloading, empty the ash
pan (remember to close the ash door while emptying
the pan). The ashes should be the coolest at this time.
Remove ashes from the re chamber periodically by
raking a poker across the bottom grates.
Excessive ash buildup can prevent proper venting of
exhaust gases. Do not allow the ash pan to over-ll. Ash
buildup between the ash pan and the bottom of the grate
can cause the grate to overheat and wear out prematurely.
The TL300 was designed to allow access to the ash
pan without the need for opening the main door. Before
opening the ash door and removing the ash pan, open
the bypass damper. Wearing heavy protective gloves,
open the ash door and remove the ash pan by pulling it
forward by the handle. Close the ash door and damper
bypass before taking the ashes outside for safe disposal.

Avoid overring your stove.
Overring is a potentially hazardous situation which
can lead to overheating of combustible materials,
damage to the stove, and in extreme cases, cause a re.

As you begin to operate your stove at higher
temperatures, you will notice a “hot” or unpleasant
smell; this is just the paint going through the curing
process, and will disappear after a few res.

1. Too much air owing through the stove too quickly.
2. You may have positioned the primary air control lever
too far to the right.
3. Inadvertently leaving the damper or ash pan door open
4. Not keeping up with routine maintenance, such as
checking door gaskets for wear.
Overring results in excessive fuel consumption, and
may cause parts of the stove or chimney connector to
glow red. If you notice signs of overring, reduce the
air supply to the re, and review the Maintenance section
in this manual.

local re department; make sure everyone is safely out
of the house. Reduce the air intake of the stove as much
as possible using the air control lever; close the bypass
damper to further restrict air ow. Do not throw water
on the re; this can cause stove damage and create an
even more dangerous situation. Have your chimney
professionally cleaned and inspected before relighting
your stove.
