When installing your heater, use care in handling. Clean with soap and warm water when heater is not hot. DO NOT use any acids or scouring soap, as these wear and dull the finish. PAINT DISCOLORATION WILL OCCUR IF THE HEATER IS OVERFIRED. FOLLOW OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. 13. All persons, especially children, should be alerted to hazards from high surface temperatures and kept away while in operation. Small children should not be left unsupervised when in the room with the heater. 14. Keep the area adjacent to the heater free from all combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors. CAUTION! Do not touch the heater until it has cooled. NOTE: FOR YOUR SAFETY, WE RECOMMEND INSTALLING SMOKE DETECTORS IN YOUR HOME IF NOT ALREADY INSTALLED. 3 MINIMUM CLEARANCE Installation Place the heater on solid masonry or solid concrete. When the heater is used on a combustible floor, use an Underwriters Listed floor protector. The floor protector must comply with UL Standards. The base should extend at least 16" beyond the door side of the heater and should extend under the flue pipe if it is elbowed towards a wall. (Fig. 5). 1. Uncrate and/or unpack the heater, removing all packing material, being careful not to dispose of the Parts Bag. 2. Open the front feed door and remove the parts from inside the stove. You should find the following: Hearth Plate (1); Solid Damper (1); Lids (2); Pivoting Top (1); Lid Support (1); Parts Package (1) containing nuts, bolts, door handle, door latch and securing hardware; Legs (4); Cast Iron Collar (1); Cast Iron Damper (1); Baffle Assembly (1); Lid Lifter (1). 3. Place cardboard or other soft material adjacent to the stove and carefully turn the stove onto its top side (bottom facing up). 4. Attach hearth plate to the front of the stove in its proper location. 5. Attach both rear and front legs to the stove. Tighten the nuts and bolts securely. The stove may now be CAREFULLY turned over to stand on it's four legs. 6. Attach the baffle assembly and flue collar to the stove by inserting the baffle studs thru the two holes located on the top of the rear of the stove; place the flue collar over the studs and mount using the proper nuts and washers. Place lid support and lid in position on pivoting top. Place the slide damper in position on the top of the hearth plate and under the feed door, and secure with screw in slot. 7. After consulting the installation instructions for minimum clearances to combustibles, locate your floor protector accordingly and carefully place the stove in your selected location. Install stove pipe, elbows and thimble as necessary, utilizing either a recently cleaned and inspected masonry chimney (properly lined) or a UL Listed chimney. Insure that the damper provided is installed in the flue collar. 8. Again, check the following illustrations and be sure you have the clearances shown from the heater and the connector pipe to combustible surfaces. If you have a solid brick or stone wall behind your heater, you may place your heater as close as you wish to the wall. However, if the wall is only faced with brick or stone, consider it a combustible wall. 9. If your chimney drafts excessively, purchase and use a Barometric Draft Regulator (DR6 available from factory). 10. The chimney connection should be as short as possible, and the heater must have its own flue. Do not connect this unit to a chimney flue serving other appliances. 11. Use three sheet metal screws in each stove pipe and or elbow joint to firmly hold the pipe together. 12. Do not install this heater in a mobile home or trailer. 14. Check your local building and insurance codes. The installation must comply with their rulings.

BE SURE TO PUT A LAYER OF SAND OR FIREBRICK APPROXIMATELY 1 1/2" THICK IN THE BOTTOM OF THE STOVE BEFORE STARTING FIRE. 2. Burn wood or wood products only. The wood should be air dried for at least six months prior to use for maximum efficiency. 3. After the fire has been started and is burning satisfactorily, adjust the rate of burning by opening or closing the draft damper wheel on the feed door. 4. Never build extremely large fires in this type of heater as damage to the heater or smoking may result. 5. Provide air into the room for combust...
