FLOORING MATERIAL
The stove may be installed on solid concrete or solid masonry flooring. If the
stove is to be installed on combustible flooring, the floor must be protected
with non-insulated ember board.
ACCESSORY INSTALLATION
BLOWER KIT (F500308)
The blower may be mounted to the rear of the stove. When plugged in and while
the stove is in use this blower will propagate air along the outside of the
fire box, warming the air before it is then circulated into the area to be
heated. Check inside the stove to find the blower contained in protective
packaging.
WARNING: BLOWER MUST BE DISCONNECTED FROM POWER SUPPLY BEFORE INSTALLING. IT IS ONLY INTENDED FOR USE WITH THIS STOVE.
Using a 5/16” open end or socket wrench, remove the 4 screws holding the rear panel. Attach the blower mounting box to the rear of the unit using 4 of the supplied #10 screws. Mount the blower assembly to the mounting box with the 4 remaining #10 screws.
ELECTRICAL CONSIDERATIONS
The Blower Motor requires 120V, 60 Hz AC and will draw 0.26 amps of current.
If you plan to ever use the blower, the rear of the stove will need to be
within power cord distance, which is roughly 65 inches (165 cm) of an
electrical outlet. Lay the power cord out such that it will not come into
contact with the stove’s surface. Keep power cord at least 12 inches from
stove surfaces.
INSTALLATION
Take measurements of your space and plan for your chimney system as detailed
in the following instructions.
This stove may also be installed for use in a mobile home in the U.S. ONLY. In
addition to the following instructions, review and adhere to the mandatory
requirements on page 9.
WARNING: When this stove is not properly installed, a house fire may result. To reduce the risk of fire, follow the installation instructions. Contact local building or fire officials about restrictions and installation inspection requirements in your area.

POSITIONING THE STOVE
When deciding on a location for the stove, choose
a location that will favor the most efficient heat distribution possible
throughout the house. Install the stove in the room where the most time is
spent and in the most spacious room possible. A stove installed in an open
living room will have a higher efficiency than one placed in a basement or
outdoors in sub-freezing temperatures. Burning dry wood will also make the
stove more efficient than burning wet wood.
When deciding on the position and orientation of the stove be sure to obey all clearance to combustibles, have the stove on smooth level floor and not raised up, and if using the blower accessory have the stove within 65 inches (165 cm) distance of a 120v electrical supply.
WARNING: DO NOT INSTALL NEAR EXITS OR STAIRS. ENSURE STOVE CAN NOT BLOCK AN EVACUATION IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE.

websites of chimney manufacturers will be able to provide stove pipe that is
rated to these standards.
- This listing indicates that the Chimney is rated for high temperatures up to 2100˚F (1149˚C).
- Only use components that all come from the same manufacturer. Do not mix brands of components for the same ventilation system.
- The following figures illustrate various methods and requirements of using a manufactured chimney and connection pipes to vent the wood stove.
EXISTING FIREPLACE INSTRUCTIONS & DIAGRAM
This stove may be vented through a fireplace with flue liner (clay tile which
protects chimney) only if all of the warnings, requirements and processes
below are obeyed. Installation should be executed so that the system can be
dismantled for periodic cleaning and inspection.
WARNING: VENTING A STOVE INTO A FIREPLACE BY ANY METHOD NOT EXPLICATIVELY COVERED, OR WHICH OTHERWISE DOES NOT SATISFY LOCAL CODES, SHOULD NOT BE ATTEMPTED. DOING SO WILL VOID THE WARRANTY ON THIS STOVE, AND MAY CREATE A HAZARD IN YOUR HOME.
CAUTION: HAVE A QUALIFIED EXPERT INSPECT THE FIREPLACE CHIMNEY AND
APPROVE IT FOR CONVERSION FOR USE WITH A WOOD STOVE.
NOTE: MANY FIREPLACES ARE DESIGNED TO WITHSTAND CONTACT WITH COMBUSTIBLES
AT THE FLOOR BUT MAY NOT HAVE BEEN TESTED FOR USE WITH A WOOD STOVE.
CONNECTION OF A WOOD STOVE TO FIREPLACE CHIMNEY MAY VOID EXISTING WARRANTY ON
THE FIREPLACE CHIMNEY.
- Inspect the chimney. Any questions regarding the condition of the chimney may be directed at a qualified licensed contractor, qualified engineer, competent mason, certified Chimney Sweep, or knowledgeable inspector. The chimney must be:
- Structurally sound
- Equipped with flue liner that is in good condition. If the chimney is unlined or damaged it can not be approved for conversion for use with this wood stove.
- Able to be secured and sealed at the throat damper and (if present) clean out or other openings at the base of the chimney which could leak the pressure seal.
- If the connection piping from the stove to a masonry chimney is to be made through a combustible wall, consult a qualified mason or chimney dealer for consultation. To ensure safety, the installation should only be done by a qualified installer. The installation must conform to the regulations established by local fire codes and building codes.
- The stove pipe must enter the chimney at least 8 inches higher than the bottom of the chimney liner. The distance between the ceiling and the vent pipe edge closest to the ceiling must be at least 18 inches (46 cm).
- Install a thimble into the created opening. The thimble must:
- Be made of clay
- Be at least 5/8 inch (16 mm) thick
- Be oversized for stovepipe so that there is approximately a ½ inch (13 mm) air gap. This is a requirement so that the pipe can safely expand and contract as it warms and cools.
- Be located so that it will be surrounded by either 12 inches (305 mm) or masonry brickwork or 24 inches (61 cm) of stone.
- Be installed so that its butt is flush with the chimney lining (see Figure 11 page 10)
- Secure the thimble with refractory mortar.
- Install the stove pipe so that it is as far as possible into the thimble without protruding passed the flue lining (again, see Figure 11 page 10)
- Seal the airspace between the stove pipe and the thimble with either high temperature sealant or ceramic wool.
- Using either high-temperature caulk, ceramic wool, or furnace cement secure and seal the throat damper and (if present) any clean out or other openings at the base of the chimney.
VENTILATION
Air introduction to stove happens in three locations:
- The Lower Primary Air Orifice (LPAO), behind the door.
- The primary air inlet.
- The secondary stage air tubes.
- By pushing the air control (on the front of the stove) into the stove the primary air inlet hole at the back of the stove is closed.
- Pulling the primary air inlet air control away from the stove increases the size of the opening for air to enter the firebox.
In general, the further the air control is pulled out the hotter the stove
will get. The best position for the air control will depend on the chimney
specifications, weather, and fuel.
In order to find the best position for the air control in your installation,
start a stove fire as this manual details. For 15 to 20 minutes have the air
control pulled away from the stove to fully open the Primary Air Inlet. At the
secondary air combustion (top of the firebox) you should be able to observe a
secondary combustion taking place. Push the air control in towards the
stove to the desired heat setting. If the secondary combustion disappears,
restart it by pulling the air control away from the stove. Move the air
control to the desired heat setting by gradually pushing it in and ensuring
that secondary air combustion is still being supported. Secondary air
combustion is important for maximizing the heat transfer from the stove to you
and minimizing the amount of smoke which can condense within your chimney as
creosote.
NOTE: SECONDARY COMBUSTION MINIMIZES, BUT DOES NOT ELIMINATE, CREOSOTE FORMATION AND BUILD UP IN CHIMNEY.
WARNING: Additional combustion air should be provided from the outdoors if these or other indications suggest that infiltration air is inadequate:
- The solid-fuel-fired appliance does not draw steadily, experiences smoke roll-out, burns poorly, or back-drafts whether or not there is combustion present.
- Existing fuel-fired equipment in the house, such as fireplaces or other heating appliances, smell, do not operate properly, suffer smoke roll-out when opened, or back-draft, whether or not there is combustion present.
- Any of the above symptoms are alleviated by opening a window slightly on a calm (windless) day.
- The house is equipped with a well-sealed vapor barrier and tight fitting windows and/or has any powered devices which exhaust house air.
- There is excessive condensation on windows in the winter and
- A ventilation system is stalled in the house.
CHIMNEY DRAFT CONSIDERATIONS
Draft is the force which moves air from the appliance up through the chimney.
The amount of draft in your chimney depends on the length of the chimney,
local geography, nearby obstructions and other factors. Too much draft may
cause excessive temperatures in the appliance. Inadequate draft may cause
backpuffing into the room and ‘plugging’ of the chimney or the catalyst.
Inadequate draft will also cause the appliance to leak smoke into the room
through appliance and chimney connector joints.
An uncontrollable burn or excessive temperature indicates excessive draft.
Please be mindful of installation location: Inversion and other air quality issues can arise in valleys or if unit is installed close to neighboring homes. To achieve and maintain the draft:
- After the fuel has burned out and you are finished with the stove, open the Primary Air Inlet all the way by pulling the air control away from the heater.
- Obey all chimney requirements, page 7 through page 12.
- Seal any and all connections of intake and exhaust piping.
- Avoid elbows and long horizontal runs of piping.
- Clean exhaust piping frequently.
- Warm the chimney up by building a large fire at the beginning of use of the stove. DO NOT OVERFIRE THE STOVE. IT IS NEVER PERMITTED TO OVERFIRE THE STOVE.
- If another appliance is venting air outside and creating a negative pressure, air can be sucked down your chimney in the reverse direction instead of exhausting out of the heater. Nullify that effect by opening a nearby door or window.
FIREBRICKS
Firebricks which line the firebox should already be installed in your wood
burning stove. Inspect the firebricks inside your stove to ensure that they
have not shifted or shattered during shipping or installation.
CAUTION: NEVER OPERATED STOVE WITHOUT FIREBRICKS IN PLACE AS SHOWN.
BEFORE FIRING, PUSH FIREBRICKS TOWARDS REAR OF THE STOVE. THERE SHOULD BE NO
GAPS BETWEEN FIREBRICKS.
NOTE: WHEN REMOVING OR INSTALLING FIREBRICK BE SURE TO NOT DAMAGE THE FIREBRICKS.
- Once your wood-burning stove is properly installed, building an effective fire requires good firewood
(using the correct wood in the correct amount) and good fire-building practices. The following section will help you obtain the best efficiency from your wood stove.
OPERATION
CAUTION: NEVER ATTEMPT TO USE ANY OF THE FOLLOWING MATERIALS AS FUEL.
- Unseasoned wood (green, wet, or freshly cut wood);
- Pressure treated wood;
- Paper products, cardboard, or particleboard;
- Salt water driftwood or other previously salt water saturated materials;
- Garbage;
- Animal remains or manures;
- Lawn clippings or yard waste;
- Waste petroleum products,
- Materials containing
- asbestos
- plastic
- rubber (including tires)
- Petroleum products such as
- paints
- paint thinners
- asphalt products
Burning these materials may result in release of toxic fumes or render the heater ineffective and cause smoke.
APPROVED FUEL:
CAUTION: BURN UNTREATED WOOD ONLY. OTHER MATERIALS SUCH AS WOOD PRESERVATIVES, METAL FOILS, COAL, PLASTIC, GARBAGE, SULPHUR, OR OIL, MAY DAMAGE THE CATALYST.
Natural cordwood is the only fuel approved for use with these wood burning stoves. Abide by the specifications below:
- Hardwood that has been air dried (seasoned) for at least 1 year. Properly seasoned wood is darker, has cracks in the end grain, and sounds hollow when smacked against another piece of wood.
- The wood should be 16 inches (41 cm) to 20 inches (50 cm) long.
- If a log has a diameter larger than 6 inches the log should be split.
- The humidity content of the wood must be less than 19%-25% of the weight of the log.
- Newly-cut logs can have a moisture content (MC) of 80% or more, depending on species. Since wood shrinks, and can also split, twist or otherwise change shape as it dries, most wood is dried before being used. Air drying, or ‘seasoning,’ is the most common method used for cord wood. In most parts of the United States, the minimum moisture content that can be generally obtained in air drying is about 12 to 15 percent. Most air-dried material is usually closer to 20 percent moisture content when used.
- To test your firewood, simply push the pins into the wood and wait for a reading. Remember, don’t just stick the meter into the ends of your firewood. To get the most accurate reading, split the wood and test the center. The center of the log will contain the most moisture.
CAUTION: Attempts to use wet or unseasoned wood will result in:
- Ignition difficulty.
- Accelerated creosote build-up resulting in chimney fire.
- Incomplete combustion.
- Low heat yield.
- Blackening of the glass in door.
Some fire starters may be used at the very beginning to help wood catch fire. Examples of potentially effective fire starters include paper wads, cardboard, saw dust, wax, and similar products marketed explicitly for the purpose of starting fires. Burning these materials may result in the release of toxic fumes, rendering the stove ineffective, and causing smoke. Research and understand the guidelines and risks for your chosen fire starter(s).
CAUTION: NEVER USE GASOLINE, GASOLINE-TYPE LANTERN FUEL, KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID, OR SIMILAR LIQUIDS TO START OR ‘FRESHEN UP’ A FIRE IN THIS STOVE. KEEP ALL SUCH LIQUIDS WELL AWAY FROM THE STOVE WHILE IT IS IN USE.
Do not store fire wood or fire starting materials on floor protector,
underneath stovepipe, or anywhere withing minimum clearances from combustible
surfaces specified on page 5.
Wood should be stored in a dry, well ventilated area.
OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION: A CHIMNEY FIRE MAY CAUSE IGNITION OF WALL STUDS OR RAFTERS WHICH WERE ASSUMED TO BE A SAFE DISTANCE FROM THE CHIMNEY. IF A CHIMNEY FIRE HAS OCCURRED, HAVE YOUR CHIMNEY INSPECTED BY A QUALIFIED EXPERT BEFORE USING AGAIN.
-
Inspect stovepipe at the start of the season and at least once every 60 days. Replace immediately if stovepipe is rusting or leaks smoke into room.
-
Use only the approved fuel.
WARNING: BURNING FUELS OTHER THAN CORDWOOD, PARTICULARLY COAL AND CHARCOAL, CAN RESULT IN HAZARDOUS CONCENTRATIONS OF CARBON MONOXIDE BEING EMITTED INTO THE DWELLING. FOR THESE REASONS, NEVER BURN COAL OR CHARCOAL IN THIS CORDWOOD STOVE. INSTALLING A CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR AND BEING AWARE OF THE SYMPTOMS OF CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING CAN HELP REDUCE THE RISK OF CARBON MONOXIDE RELATED ISSUES. -
Inspect the glass door. CAUTION: Do not operate if the glass is cracked or broken. Never load fuel to a height that could present a hazard when opening the door again later.
-
Do not position fuel against the glass.
WARNING: THIS UNIT WAS DESIGNED FOR OPERATION ONLY WITH THE DOOR CLOSED AND TIGHTLY LATCHED. OPERATING THIS UNIT WITH THE DOOR LATCHED LOOSELY OR OPEN WILL ALLOW EXCESSIVE COMBUSTION AIR TO REACH THE FIRE AND WILL RESULT IN DANGEROUSLY HIGH UNIT TEMPERATURES. HIGH UNIT TEMPERATURES “OVERFIRING” CAN DAMAGE THE UNIT, VOID THE WARRANTY OR IGNITE CREOSOTE DEPOSITED IN THE CHIMNEY SYSTEM BY PREVIOUS, SLOW BURNING FIRES. -
Do not obstruct the lower air inlet (bottom of the firebox by door) or the secondary air tubes (along the top of the firebox).
PAINT CURIN G
NOTE: BECAUSE OF HIGH OPERATING TEMPERATURES, THIS STOVE USES A SPECIAL
HIGH-TEMPERATURE PAINT. TO ENABLE THE PAINT TO BOND DURABLY TO THE STOVE,
FOLLOW THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURE:
- Build a small fire in the stove for 20 minutes.
- Build another small fire in the stove which lasts 20 minutes.
- Build a final medium sized fire in the stove which lasts 20 minutes.
The paint curing process is now complete. Provide cross ventilation to eliminate odors or smoke cause by curing process.
HIGH FIRE WITH A COLD START
To start the fire from a “cold” stove:
-
Inspect that all seals on the door, ash drawer, and ash plug are in good condition. Close the ash drawer. Plug ash hole. Inspect the chimney and chimney connector, see maintenance on page 18.
CAUTION : DO NOT OPERATE STOVE IF THE GLASS IS BROKEN.
WARNING: THE CHIMNEY CONNECTOR MUST BE IN GOOD CONDITION AND BE KEPT CLEAN TO SAFELY USE THIS STOVE. -
Cut and split approximately 15 kindling pieces 16 inches long. Half of them should be approximately 3/4 inch square, the rest 1/2 inch square. The kindling should be very dry and weigh approximately 4.5 lbs.
WARNING: DO NOT USE GRATE OR ELEVATE FIRE – BUILD WOOD FIRE DIRECTLY ON HEARTH. DO NOT OPERATE WITH THE MAIN DOOR OPEN – OPERATING THE STOVE WITH THE MAIN DOOR OPEN WILL CREATE AN OVER-FIRE. -
Cut and split approximately 15 start-up fuel pieces 16 inches long. Half of the pieces should be larger cross-section (approximately 1 ½ inches square) and the rest smaller cross-section (approximately 1 inch’s square). These can be split from larger fuel pieces that are in the range of 19-25% moisture (Dry-basis). The total weight of the start-up fuel should be approximately 6.8 lbs.
CAUTION: WHEN TENDING THE STOVE ALWAYS WEAR FIRE RETARDANT CLOTHING AND PROTECTIVE EYEWARE. -
Arrange the start-up fuel pieces in a grid as shown in the following Figures. Place two of the larger pieces about six inches apart going front to back. Next, two more pieces the same size left to right about six inches apart. Place about seven of the small pieces front to back on top of the gird. See Figure 18. Place the remaining start up fuel sideways on top.
-
Next arrange the kindling pieces in a similar alternation grid pattern with the larger pieces first followed by the smallest with a layer of three pieces going left to right as shown with six or seven pieces on the top. See Figure 19.
Start up fuel and kindling on top, start up fuel on the bottom, stacked in the fire box from largest cross-section on the bottom to smallest on the top.
WARNING: NEVER LEAVE A RUNNING STOVE UNATTENDED WHILE DOOR IS OPEN.
THE DOOR MAY ONLY BE OPEN FOR FIRE STARTING AND FIRE TENDING. TO CLOSE: FIRMLY ROTATE DOOR HANDLE CLOCK WISE UNTIL THE DOOR IS SECURELY LATCHED. DO NOT SLAM THE DOOR. -
To start make sure the air control is pulled all the way out.
-
Using a propane torch, light the top front of the kindling grid. The torch should be operated for 60 seconds.
-
Close the door until it hits the latch. This will leave the door in a slightly open position.
-
After one minute, close the door fully and secure the door latch.
-
Make sure the air control is still in the maximum open position.
ADDING THE HIGH FIRE FUEL LOAD
- When the kindling and start up fuel have burned down by approximately 2/3, rake the remaining coals and fuel pieces forward until they are equally distributed and level.
- Place the largest fuel piece in the center of the firebox with two smaller pieces on the either side packed tightly together and making sure there is space on both sides of the load for good air flow. Place the remaining pieces on top of the bottom pieces. All fuel pieces should be in a front- to-back orientation. Air control should be set to maximum open (all the way out).
LOW FIRE FUELING AND OPERATION (LOADING ON COALS AFTER HIGH FIRE OPERATION)
- At the end of the high fire rake the remaining coals forward until they are equally distributed and level across the firebox.
- Place the three largest pieces in first, they should be close together with small gaps between. Place the remaining pieces on top of the first in the same way close together with small gaps between them.
- Immediately close the door and open the air control to maximum open (all the way out).
- Leave the air control on the max setting for up to 15min. Then push the air control all the way in.
MEDIUM FIRE FUELING AND OPERATION (LOADING ON COALS AFTER HIGH FIRE OPERATION)
- At the end of the high fire rake the remaining coals forward until they are equally distributed and level across the firebox.
- Place the largest piece in the center of the firebox with two smaller pieces on either side, packed tightly together making sure there is space on both sides of the load for good air flow, place the remaining pieces on top. All fuel pieces should be in a front-to-back orientation.
- Immediately close the load door and set the air control to maximum open (all the way out).
- After 5 minutes set the control to the medium air flow position which is 3/8 pulled from fully closed.
CAUTION: IF THE STOVE OR STOVE PIPE GLOWS RED THE UNIT IS OVERFIRING. CLOSE STOVE DOOR AND IMMEDIATELY SHUT AIR CONTROL (PUSH AIR CONTROL TO THE “IN” POSITION) TO REDUCE AIR SUPPLY AND SLOW DOWN COMBUSTION.
WARNING: IN CASE OF CHIMNEY FIRE:
- CLOSE AIR INLET CONTROL BY PUSHING AIR CONTROL IN TOWARDS STOVE.
- GET OUT OF THE HOUSE OR BUILDING.
- CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
MINIMIZING CREOSOTE FORMATION
See “MAINTENANCE” on page 18 for an explanation on Creosote formation and
removal. To slow the build up of creosote within your chimney, comply with the
following guidelines:
- Burn only the recommended fuel “APPROVED FUEL” on page 14.
- Do not mix green or wet wood with the approved fuel. Wood that does not ignite but instead hisses, sizzles, and blackens is definitely too wet. It will cause accelerated creosote build up in chimney and will also reduce the heat output of the stove.
- Only add to ½ the fuel capacity of the fire box at a time to ensure thorough combustion and temper the amount of smoke produced.
- Every time fuel is added, fully open the Primary Air Inlet by pulling the air control away from the stove.
- Periodically throughout the day, fully open the Primary Air Inlet by pulling the air control away from the stove for a few minutes. This will help keep the chimney at a warm temperature and subsequently reduce the condensation of creosote.
DISPOSAL OF ASHES
Whenever ash accumulates within the fire box or ash pan to a height of 3-4
inches:
-
After ashes have cooled, remove ash plug and carefully sweep ashes down into the ash bin.
-
Replace ash plug,remove ash bin, and empty into a suitable container.
NOTE: You may also purchase a Cleveland Ironworks Ash Vacuum, model# AV65GALB/AV65GALSS. -
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible floor or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
-
Other waste shall not be placed in ash containers.
MAINTENANCE
DAILY MAINTENANCE
- Inspect the firebox for ash accumulation; remove excess ash and follow instructions below regarding disposal.
MONTHLY MAINTENANCE
- Check the blower for dust accumulation (if installed); check the door handle for proper operation and to be certain an airtight seal is still being made by the door.
- Inspect the chimney system and chimney connector and sweep if necessary. Although cleaning may be required less than monthly, ALWAYS inspect the venting system monthly to decrease the chance of a chimney fire.
- Visually inspect the ceramic fiberboards in the firebox for cracks and/or breakage. Slight surface cracks will not affect the performance of the boards, but cracked or crumbling boards should be replaced immediately.
- Visually inspect the secondary combustion pipes for cracks, warping and corrosion. Although
these tubes are constructed from stainless steel, they operate at very high temperatures and can eventually wear out from normal use.
YEARLY MAINTENANCE
- Check all gaskets (window and door) for wear and to be certain they still maintain an airtight seal. See the following page for instructions.
- Thoroughly clean the chimney system and the chimney connector system. Since the chimney connector is generally exposed to high exhaust temperatures, inspect it carefully for leaks and weak spots; replace any questionable pieces. In the case of straight through the roof chimney system, be certain to remove the ceramic fiberboards before pushing the chimney sweeping brush down into the firebox. Forcefully hitting the top of the board with a cleaning brush or rod can damage or destroy the boards.
- Remove all ash from the stove. Leave the air control open during the non-heating months to allow some air to flow through the stove to help prevent corrosion.
WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN OR SERVICE WHILE THE STOVE IS HOT. BEFORE OPENING THE CLEVELAND IRONWORKS WOOD FIRE STOVE DOOR FOR ANY TYPE OF SERVICE, BE SURE THAT THE STOVE IS COOL AND THAT THE BLOWER IS UNPLUGGED.
- USE ONLY MANUFACTURER’S REPLACEMENT PARTS. USE OF ANY OTHER PARTS COULD CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH.
CREOSOTE – FORMATION AND NEED FOR REMOVAL
Failure to remove creosote may result in a dangerous chimney fire.
When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors, which
combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapors condense
in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow-burning fire. As a result,
creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining. When ignited this creosote
makes an extremely hot fire. The chimney connector and chimney should be
inspected at least once every two months during the heating season to
determine if a creosote buildup has occurred. If a significant layer of
creosote has accumulated (eighth of an inch, 3 mm, or more) it should be
removed to reduce the risk of a chimney fire.
Establish a routine for the fuel, wood burner and firing technique. Check daily for creosote build-up until experience shows how often you need to clean to be safe. Be aware that the hotter the fire the less creosote is deposited, and weekly cleaning may be necessary in mild weather even though monthly cleaning may be enough in the coldest months. Contact your local municipal or provincial fire authority for information on how to handle a chimney fire. Have a clearly understood plan to handle a chimney fire.
CLEANING GLASS
Be certain the stove and the glass are completely cool. The build-up on the glass will generally be light and water is normally sufficient to remove the deposits. If stubborn soot persists, use a cleaner made specifically for this purpose. Rinse the glass with clean water and dry the glass before resuming normal operation. These cleanings help prevent the accumulation of acidic ash build up which can weaken the glass and result in cracks. It is not acceptable to operate the stove with cracked or broken glass.
WARNING: DO NOT CLEAN GLASS WITH ABRASIVE CLEANERS OR BY ANY OTHER PROCESS WHICH MAY SCRATCH OR DAMAGE THE GLASS. DO NOT CLEAN WHEN HOT!
REPLACING GLASS
WARNING: DO NOT ABUSE THE GLASS DOOR BY STRIKING IT OR SLAMMING THE DOOR SHUT.
Replace the door glass only with 5 mm high-temperature ceramic single-pane glass. The glass size is 15 in.(381 mm) x 11.25 in.(285.75 mm). DO NOT use substitute materials! Never replace ceramic glass with tempered or any other type of glass. Contact the manufacturer for more information on ordering factory original or equivalent parts.
- Remove the door from the stove and rest it face down on a firm work surface.
- Using a 5/16” wrench, remove the ten window bracket retaining screws.
- Remove the four window tabs from the door. Take extra care to avoid shards of glass if the glass window has been broken.
- Lift the old glass panel out of the door and discard.
- The glass panel must be wrapped with a self-adhesive fiberglass rope gasket. If you purchased a new glass, it will come already wrapped. If reusing the same piece of glass, remove old gasket, scrape off old adhesive and wrapped with the new gasket. This gasket serves to cushion the glass from the cast iron door.
- Reinstall the window retaining tabs using the ten screws previously removed. Do not over-tighten the screws.
REMOVING DAMAGED GASKETS
Over time the sealing gaskets along the glass (3mm x 16mm flat, fiberglass
rope) and door (9/16” dia. fiberglass rope) may lose their rigidity. These
seals are essential for providing a seal which allows the stove to operate
safely. Inspect the gaskets periodically, and if they become worn contact the
manufacturer for information on original or equivalent gasket.
To replace the gasket:
- Ensure that all coals and fuel are extinguished and that the stove is cool to the touch.
- Remove old gasket and clean the gasket gutter.
- Apply a thin coat of high temperature gasket cement along the inside of the gasket gutter.
- Press the beginning of the replacement gasket into the most up and most left position of the prepared gasket gutter.
- Continue pressing the replacement gasket clockwise along the gasket gutter until it has wrapped back to where the gasket was pressed in initially.
- Trim any excess replacement gasket away ,and press the remaining butt into the gutter to complete the seal.
- Close the door, drawer, or ash plunger and allow 3 to 4 hours for the cement to set before operating the stove.
Replacing Air Tubes
NOTE: HANDLE THE FRONT AIR TUBE DELICATELY TO AVOID DAMAGING IT OR
DAMAGING THE STOVE ITSELF.
- Use a 5/16” open end or socket wrench to remove the screw securing the air tube.
- Remove the air tube by sliding it into the space to the right, followed by sliding the tube left and partially forward, and finally remove the tube by sliding to the right and out of the firebox. Overall this pattern looks like the letter Z. See Figure 20.
- Installation of the same, or a replacement, front air tube is step 1 done in reverse. The other air tubes may be removed and replaced by the same manner.
CERAMIC FIBERBOARD REPLACEMENT
To replace a cracked or broken board, first remove the front burner tube as
descibed above. Then tilt the front of the board down and slide out the board
you need to replace. Install the new board (the two boards should sit flush on
the tubes side by side). Replace the tube previously removed.
To replace the ceramic blanket, follow the previous steps to remove the
ceramic boards, then pull out
the blanket. Replace with new blanket following the previous steps in reverse
order.
BLOWER CLEANING
To remove debris such as dust and dirt, lightly vacuum the outside of the
enclosure of the 120 Volt / 60 Hz / 0.26 Amp blower. Be sure that the motor is
unplugged before vacuuming, or before preforming any other stove maintenance.
NOTE: IF ANY OF THE ORIGINAL WIRE SUPPLIED WITH THE APPLIANCE MUST BE REPLACED, IT MUST BE REPLACED WITH WIRING MATERIAL HAVING A TEMPERATURE RATING OF AT LEAST 105˚C AND RATED FOR 600V.
DOOR LATCH
When opening and closing the door repeatedly it is possible to unintentionally
move the door handle thread so that the door no longer latches shut. If this
happens, open the door and inspect the position of the door handle thread.
Adjust the door handle until it is possible to close and seal the door tightly
with the latch by rotating the handle counterclockwise.
- Rotate the door handle clockwise to extend the latch further into the firebox to allow the door latch to catch the inside frame of the stove.
- Rotate the door handle counterclockwise to decrease the distance between the latch and the stove.
