Floor Protection Requirements A non-combustible floor protector (hearth extension) must be installed under the unit. Check with local building authorities as to what other materials are acceptable. The floor protector must extend: 1. Beyond the front door, a minimum of 16 inches (400 mm) in USA and 18 inches (450 mm) in Canada. See measurement “B” on the floor protection drawing below. 2. On both sides of the unit, a minimum of 5 inches (125 mm) in USA and 8 inches (200 mm) in Canada.
Draft Requirements .09 .08 1.0 .9 .8 .7 LOW RANGE OR PRESSURE IN. OF WATER DRAFT .07 .06 .05 THE RECOMMENDED DRAFT REQUIREMENTS FOR YOUR STOVE IS NO LESS THAN -.04 AND NO GREATER THAN -.08. OPERATION OF YOUR STOVE WITH A DRAFT GREATER THAN -.08 CAN POSSIBLY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE STOVE AND VOID THE WARRANTY. .04 .03 .02 .01 .6 .5 .4 .3 .2 .1 .05 IN. OF WATER DRAFT OR PRESSURE - HIGH RANGE The appliance is merely one component of larger system.
Standard Installation Procedure 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Position the unit no closer than the minimum clearances to combustible materials. Check that no overhead cross members in the ceiling or roof will be cut. Reposition unit if necessary, being careful not to move closer than the minimum clearances. Mark the position of the required floor protector on the floor. Remove the unit and install the floor protector. Position the unit on the floor protector at the proper clearances.
Above a Fireplace In this type of installation, the chimney connector rises from the stove, turns 90°, and then goes into the fireplace chimney (Fig. B) The liner of the fireplace chimney should extend at least to the point at which the chimney connector enters the chimney. Follow all the guidelines for installing a chimney connector into a freestanding masonry chimney, and pay special attention to these additional points: • Double check the connector clearance from the ceiling: 18” minimum.
Acceptable Types of Connector Pipe Minimum Flue Diameter: Minimum 6”, Maximum 10” Minimum recommended chimney height (from appliance to termination): 12’-15’ - When Using Single Wall Pipe: Install a 6-inch diameter, single wall, 24 MSG black steel or 26 MSG blued steel connector pipe on the flue collar of the unit. The crimped ends of the pipeshould all point down. Additional sections of single wall pipe should be fastened together with at least three sheet metal screws each section.
The Woodbox© Combustion System Air Distribution System Air is warmed as it rises Permanent secondary air intake (post-combustion) Adjustable primary air intake (Airwash) Adjustable start-up air intake (Ignition Booster) Note: For the purpose of clarity, the refractory bricks lining the firebox are not shown in the illustration above.
Explaination of the Air Intake Controls The Burn Rate Control Knob The burn rate is controlled simply by rotating the control knob with the tool provided. + 2 As the knob is rotated counterclockwise, the cam progressively opens the air shutter to allow an increasing amount of air into the stove.
Operating Instructions WARNING : DO NOT USE GASOLINE, LIGHTER FLUID, KEROSENE OR OTHER FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS TO START OR FRESHEN A FIRE IN THIS HEATER. KEEP ALL SUCH LIQUIDS WELL AWAY FROM THE HEATER WHILE IT IS IN USE. Use the tool provided to adjust the stove’s air controls Slide lever from A to B to adjust burn type Turn knob to adjust burn rate B WARNING: Touching the air controls with bare hands while the stove is in operation may result in severe burns Lighting a Fire 1.
4. After the kindling is burning well, add increasingly larger pieces of wood until the fire is actively burning. 5. When the fire is well established, slide the Burn Type Lever to position A. Then adjust the Burn Rate Knob to the desired heat output, either manually or with the remote control. As the fire grows and the flue warms, the Burn Type Lever can be moved in one or two stages to its uppermost position (A), and the Burn Rate Knob moved progressively (clockwise) to lower settings.
Ash Removal Empty the ash pan regularly to prevent the ash from spilling over. Do not allow ash to build up and touch the under side of the grate. A layer of ash left over the grate when burning wood will protect the grate, retain heat, and promote clean combustion. CAUTION: THE ASH PAN MAY BE HOT. USE HIGH TEMPERATURE GLOVES. Use the tool provided to open the latch on the ashpan door. It is best to empty the ashpan while the stove is not in operation.
Unattended Fires Many structure fires have resulted when a slow burning fire has been left unattended for an extended period of time. These fires normally occur because combustible materials close to an appliance become heated to the ignition point by an over-fired appliance which the operator thought was safely “throttled down.” Fire intensity is a function of several factors. One of these factors is draft. Normally, increasing draft increases fire intensity.
Maintenance WARNING: DO NOT CLEAN STOVE WHILE HOT. Always keep the area around the unit clean and clear of furniture and other objects. Keep all furniture and drapery a minimum of 36” (914 mm) from the heater. Inspect the entire unit frequently for proper operation, fit and soundness of parts. If any malfunctioning, cracked, broken, or loose parts or other problems are noted, contact your dealer or qualified serviceman to inspect and repair the unit.
Creosote Formation and Need for Removal 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.
Door Handle Adjustment Your stove is equipped with an adjustable door latch. For correct operation, the stove door must be airtight when closed. To adjust the door handle latch, loosen the locking nut and adjust the bolt in or out as required. Retighten the locking nut. The adjustment should be made in such away that when the handle is in its closed position the door is airtight.
