Never modify this cookstove in any way.
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.
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 sap the supply
of oxygen or even create an explosion.
Keep all such materials away from the stove.
Never use a wood grate andirons or other
device to elevate the fire.
Do not allow logs to rest against or
otherwise come in contact with the glass
when the door is closed.
Do not slam the door or use it to force wood
in to the cookstove.
Never over-fire your cookstove. (See page
22)
Never put articles of clothing or candles on
a hot cookstove.
Do not connect the cookstove to a flue that
is serving another appliance.
Do not set any materials on the cook top
that are not intended. The surface will
become very hot during operation and even
though ignition may or may not take place
the heat will melt or burn most objects
which may in turn drip into the firebox will
may create an ignition.
Other safety guidelines
Keep all combustible items such as
furniture, drapes, clothing, and other items,
at least 36" (0.92 m) from the cookstove
(See page 100 for more clearance to
combustible information)
Install a smoke detector.
Keep a fire extinguisher handy. We
recommend the type rated "A B C."
Dispose of ashes properly. (See page 22)
PERIODIC CHECKLIST
Perform each of these tasks at the specified
intervals. (While these are to be used as a rule of
thumb, HearthStone recommends that a
qualified service technician should inspect your
wood burning system approximately every other
month during the heavy use season)
Every Week:
• Empty ashes from the firebox and ash pan,
sooner if the firebox is full.
Every Month:
• Visually inspect chimney connector and
chimney for creosote; clean accordingly.
Tap the outside of the pipe to feel for
buildup of creosote. If the pipe feels
hollow, your pipe is most likely clean
and safe for use. If the pipe feels solid
or full, it is probably full of creosote
and should be cleaned before further
use.
Every Other Month:
• A visual inspection of the chimney
connector and chimney for creosote is
recommended depending upon your use of
the stove.
• Check the fuel loading door seal using the
"dollar bill test." (When the fire is out and
the stove is cool, shut the door on a dollar
bill. If the bill pulls out without any
resistance, then your stove’s door isn't
