DEFINITIONS CHIMNEY One or more passageways, vertical or nearly so, for sending flue gases (smoke) to the outside atmosphere. You must ensure proper clearances are maintained from combustible materials. CHIMNEY CONNECTOR Also known as stove pipe. Connects a fuel-burning appliance to a chimney. A chimney connector shall not pass through an attic or roof space, closet or similar concealed space, or a floor, ceiling, wall or partition of combustible construction.
THIMBLE A manufactured or site-constructed (brick) device installed in combustible walls. It is intended to keep walls from overheating. Note; Unprotected single wall flue connector pipe requires 18 inches clearance to combustibles unless otherwise specified on the appliance label.
BUILDING AND FIRE CODES, PERMITS, AND INSPECTIONS. The installation of this woodstove must comply with your local building and fire codes. Always contact your local Building Inspector and/or Fire Department before beginning the installation process. If required, obtain a permit before installation and have the completed installation inspected. CHILDREN Do not allow children to play near the stove or with the operating knobs.
DISPOSAL OF ASHES 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. WARNING REMOVE ASHES ONLY WHEN THEY ARE COLD. NEVER STORE HOT ASHES IN A GARAGE OR BASEMENT.
OPERATION Your stove's performance (including its efficiency, pollutant emission level and service lifetime) depends largely on how it is operated. You, then, are the most important factor affecting performance. Please read these operation instructions carefully. WARNING - PROVIDE ADEQUATE AIR CIRCULATION It is essential that a source of fresh air for combustion be provided at all times when this woodstove is in operation.
at all times. When there is no flame pattern in the top of the firebox, the stove is less efficient (produces less heat from a load of wood) and burns less clean (makes and deposits more creosote in the chimney system). When starting a low fire, do not turn the fans on for the first 30 minutes. For a medium burn (16,000 to 22,000 btu/hour) leave the air control set at high for 15 minutes, or until the fire is well established. Then move the air control to the medium setting.
FAN OPERATION (Optional) If you have the optional Fan Assembly installed, wait 30 minutes before you turn on the fans to begin circulating the warm air into the room. Use a LOW speed setting when the stove is set for a low burn and a higher speed setting with hotter fires. ASH REMOVAL The ashes should be removed any time they come within three inches of the doors lower sill. A thick bed of ashes will significantly limit the amount of wood you can get in the firebox.
ADJUSTING THE DOOR CATCH TENSION The door catch on the front of the stove is adjustable. If you need to adjust the door to ensure a gasket air seal around the door, loosen the lock nut. Rotate the catch clockwise to tighten the gasket. Make this adjustment one turn at a time and be careful not to over tighten, that could place excess strain on the door and glass. REPLACING THE DOOR GASKET 1) If the door gasket is to be replaced, be sure you have a replacement part ready to re-install.
WARNING BROKEN DOOR GLASS IS SHARP. ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION AND PROTECTIVE GLOVES WHEN HANDLING GLASS. DISCARD THE GLASS IN A CLOSED CONTAINER INACCESSIBLE TO CHILDREN. l) Allow the fire to completely burn out and the stove to cool down. 2) Retain all parts for re-installation. 3) Open the door and remove the twelve (12) # 10 x 3/8" screws holding the six retainers to the inside of the door. 4) Remove the damaged glass and the old glass gasket.
TROUBLESHOOTING Your Blaze King is designed to allow a wide selection of heat output levels. If you begin to lose control of the amount of heat the stove is emitting, determine the problem early so that major problems can be avoided. The four major needs of a well-controlled fire are: 1) Knowledgeable operator. 2) Adequate air supply. 3) Firewood of good quality and proper size. 4) Clean chimney, properly sized and installed.
POSSIBLE CAUSES PROBLEM: Too much heat. Thermostat not operating properly Loading door gasket leaking, admitting excess air into firebox Excessive draft in the chimney POSSIBLE SOLUTION Consult your Blaze King dealer. Replace door gasket and/or adjust door. (see Page 16). Measure draft with a Manometer. Consult your Blaze King dealer or a chimney sweep. Install a cap. Use larger diameter pieces.
POSSIBLE CAUSES Strong, gusting winds causing downdraft in chimney Tightly sealed house, inadequate air supply Burning poorly seasoned wet wood, POSSIBLE SOLUTION Install wind-resistant chimney cap. Open a window, slightly, near the stove.

Horizontal runs should be as short as possible and slope up 1/4" per foot run. 2) The chimney connector must not penetrate a combustible wall without using an acceptable thimble system.
