OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
FUEL
Hardwood, 18" to 23" should be split and
air dried (seasoned) for 6 months to obtain
maximum burning e ciency.
Wood should be stored in a dry, well venti-
lated area. A Wooden box or crate is ideal
for storage.

CHARCOAL LOGS!

5. Set thermostat higher or lower for
desired temperature.
ADDING FUEL
When possible, add small amounts of fuel
each hour or so instead of adding large
quantities of fresh fuel every 4 to 5 hours.
 is will give more complete combustion and
less build-up of tars or soot in the chimney.
1. Set  ermostat to HIGH before open-
ing feed door.
2. Empty ash pan regularly. Do not allow
ashes to build up to grate as grate will
warp and burnout will occur, and you

RULES FOR CONNECTOR PIPE INSTALLATION
1.  e crimped end of the stovepipe  ts
inside the heater  ue collar. Install additional
pipe and elbow with the CRIMPED END
TOWARD THE HEATER.  is will allow
any condensation in the  ue to run back
into the heater. Smoke will not escape when
installed in this manner.
2. Slope any horizontal pipe upward toward
the chimney at least 1/4 inch for each foot
of horizontal run.
3. You must have at least 18 inches of clear-
ance between any horizontal piping and
the ceiling.
4.  e pipe cannot extend into the chimney
 ue. (Fig. 8)
5. Seal each connector pipe joint with furnace
cement. Also seal the pipe at the chimney.
6. Use 3 Sheet Metal screws at each joint to
make the piping rigid.
7. It is recommended that no more than two
90 degree bends be used in the stovepipe
installation as more than two may decrease
the amount of draw and if possible, use only
corrugated (non-adjustable) elbows.  ey
are much more airtight.
8.  e chimney connector must not pass
through an attic or roof space, closet, or
any concealed space, or  oor, ceiling, wall
or combustive construction.
