SAFETY INFORMATION
Read and understand this Owner's Manual
thoroughly before installing and using this stove.
Make sure to install your stove:
q According to the manufacturer's recommendations.
q In accordance with all applicable codes.
q With the proper sized chimney.
When using your stove:
q Warn children and others unfamiliar with woodstoves
of the danger of touching hot, radiating surfaces of
your stove. For your additional safety, obtain hearth
and stove guards through your local dealer.
q Follow recommended break-in procedure as outlined
in this manual.
q Burn natural wood only. Higher efficiencies and
lower emissions result when burning air-dried,
seasoned wood, as compared to green or freshly cut
wood.
q Use caution when loading firewood into a hot stove.
q Keep the door closed at all times except when
loading wood.
q Inspect the stovepipe, chimney connector and
chimney, as recommended.
Follow these safety precautions:
q Never modify this stove in any way, especially the
primary air control system.
q Never burn kiln dried wood, painted or treated wood,
solvents, trash, plywood, colored or glossy paper,
artificial logs, cardboard, coal, garbage or driftwood.
Especially, do not burn coal in this stove.
q Never use gasoline type fuel, kerosene, charcoal
lighter fluid, or other liquid fuels or solid fire starters
to start or invigorate the fire. These fuels can
possibly generate carbon monoxide, which can
deplete the supply of oxygen. Keep all such
materials away from the stove.
q Never use a wood grate or other device to elevate the
fire.
q Do Not allow logs to rest against or otherwise come
in contact with the glass when the door is closed.
q Do Not slam the door or use the door to force wood
in to the stove.
q Never over-fire your stove. (See page 18)
q Never put articles of clothing or candles on a hot
stove.
q Do Not connect the stove to a flue that is serving
another appliance.
