You can now add larger pieces of wood and operate the appliance normally. Once the appliance is entirely hot,
it will burn very effi ciently with little smoke from the chimney. There will be a bed of orange coals in the fi rebox
and secondary fl ames fl ickering just below the top fi rebrick. You can safely fi ll the fi rebox with wood to the top
of the door and will get best burns if you keep the appliance pipe temperatures between 250°F (120°C) and
450°F (270°C). A surface thermometer will help regulate this.

Without a appliance thermometer, you are working blindly and have no idea of how the appliance is operating!
A appliance thermometer offers a guide to performance.
Can't get the fi re going?
Use more kindling and paper. Assuming the chimney and vent are sized correctly and there is suffi cient
combustion air, the lack of suffi ciently dry quantities of small kindling is the problem. Thumb size is a good
gauge for small kindling diameter.
Can't get heat out of the appliance?
One of two things may have happened. The appliance door may have been closed prematurely and the
appliance itself has not reached optimum temperature. Reopen the door and/or draft control to re-establish a
brisk fi re. The other problem may have been wet wood. The typical symptom is sizzling wood and moisture
being driven from the wood.
7.1
OPTIMUM BURN METHOD
For optimal emissions performance and effi ciency follow these simple guidelines when using your appliance:
A.
Maintain a 2" (51mm) deep, hot, glowing red coal bed.
B.
Burn dry seasoned wood with less than 20% moisture content and burn so that the glass door remains
clean.
C.
A stove thermometer 18" (457mm) up on the single wall stove pipe should indicate 350°F (176°C) as
an average temperature.
D.
Maintain a minimal trace of smoke coming from the chimney when the appliance is burning as
intended.
E.
Inspect and replace all necessary components such as gaskets, manifolds, glass and other
components which may affect the overall appliance performance.
F.
Ensure an adequate draft to control burn rate and temperature.
Refer to "OPERATION" and "MAINTENANCE" sections for detailed information.
7.2
AIR CONTROL
THIS WOOD APPLIANCE HAS A MANUFACTURER-SET MINIMUM LOW BURN RATE THAT MUST
NOT BE ALTERED. IT IS AGAINST FEDERAL REGULATIONS IN THE UNITED STATES TO ALTER THIS
SETTING OR OTHERWISE OPERATE THIS WOOD APPLIANCE IN A MANNER INCONSISTENT WITH
Draft is the force which moves air from the fi rebox up through the chimney.
The amount of draft in your chimney depends on the length and diameter
of chimney, local geography, nearby obstructions and other factors
including the amount of heat generated by the fi re which can be measured
by an appliance thermometer.
Adjusting the air control regulates the temperature. The draft can be
adjusted from a low burn rate with the handle in fully, to a fast burn rate
with the handle fully out.
Inadequate draft may cause back-puffi ng into the room through the appliance and chimney connector
points and may cause plugging of the chimney. Too much draft may cause an excessive temperature in the
appliance, glowing red appliance parts or chimney connectors or an uncontrollable burn which can lead to a
chimney fi re or permanent damage to the appliance.
Do not operate your appliance for longer than 30 minutes with the draft control on "HIGH" (fully open).
