Build  and  maintain  your  first  fire  and  first  fire  each 
season thereafter as outlined above.  Your patience 
will be rewarded by a properly seasoned stove. 

 

NOTE:

  Cool  flue  gas  temperatures  present 

during  the  break-in  procedure  may  cause  rapid 
creosote  build-up.  The  glass may  also  get  dirty. 
A  good  hot  fire  will  clean  it.  We  recommend  a 
visual  inspection  (and  cleaning  if  necessary)  of 
your  stovepipe  and  chimney  once  the  break-in 
procedure is completed.

PERATION 

 

If  your  stove  is  not  used  continuously  or  has  not 
been  used  in  quite  some  time,  follow  the  break-in 
procedure  at  least  once  to  minimize  the  stress  of  a 
hot  fire  on  a  cold  stove  before  proceeding  with 
normal operation.  We recommend one break-in fire 
at the start of each heating season.   

Prior  to  loading  the  stove,  ensure  the  ash  grate, 
refractory  soapstone,  and  the  ash  pan  are  in  place. 
Ensure the ash door is closed to prevent over-firing. 

Also,  ensure  you  clear  away  the  ashes  around  the 
“doghouse.”    The  doghouse  is  the  slight  bulge  of 
metal, located in the front lower center of the firebox.  
If the front door is open, the doghouse is in the lower 
center of the door opening.  There is a hole located 
on  the  opposite  side,  which  directs  primary  air  into 
the  coal  bed  area  of  the  firebox.  Obstructing  this 
hole will hinder the operation of the stove. Along with 
the  glass’ air  wash, the  air flow  is regulated via the 
primary air control lever. 

Building A Fire For Everyday Use 

1.  Open the front or side door and place five or six 

double sheets of tightly twisted newspaper in the 
center of the firebox.  Arrange kindling in a 
crisscross pattern over the newspaper.  Kindling 
should be approximately ten pieces, 1/2" (13 
mm) in diameter and 10" to 18" (254 to 457 mm) 
long. 

2.  Fully open the primary air control by pushing it 

completely to the left, away from the firebox. 

3.  Light the paper under the kindling.  Leave the 

front door slightly ajar momentarily until the 
kindling has started to burn and draft begins to 
pull. 

4.  Close the door and allow the fire to burn. 

5.  Once the kindling is burning, open the front or 

side door and add logs, small at first, to build the 
fire up.  Make sure to keep the logs away from 
the glass in front in order for the air-wash 

system to work properly.  Keep the front door 
and ash door closed while the stove is in use. 

6.  Once the fire is burning well, use the primary air 

control to regulate the desired rate of burn.  
Pushing the handle to the left opens the 
PRIMARY AIR CONTROL for a high rate of burn 
or pushing it to the right for a low rate of burn. 

 

NOTE:

  When opening the front or side door 

to reload or re-arrange logs, it is advisable to 
open  the  door  just  a  crack,  pause  for  a 
moment then open the door completely.  This 
procedure  will  allow  the  firebox  to  clear  of 
smoke before the door is opened fully.  Also, 
reloading on  a bed of hot,  red coals reduces 
smoking time and will bring fresh fuel up to a 
high temperature rapidly. 

Burn Rate  

HIGH  BURN:

  Fully  load  the  firebox  with  wood  on  a 

bed  of  hot  coals  or  on  an  actively  flaming  fire  and 
fully open the primary air control by moving it fully to 
the  left,  away  from  the  firebox.    This  will  fully  open 
the  primary  air  shutter.    A  high  burn  rate  is 
recommended  once  or  twice  a  day  to  fully  heat  the 
stovepipe  and  chimney,  which  will  help  minimize 
creosote  accumulation.  Sustained  top,  center  stone 
temperature  should  not  exceed  600°  Fahrenheit 
(316

C). 

MEDIUM  HIGH  BURN:

  With  the  primary  air  control 

in  the  closed  position,  move  the  control  handle 
slightly to the left. 

MEDIUM  LOW  BURN:

  With  the  primary  air  control 

in  the  closed  position,  move  the  handle  half  way 
between  the  medium  and  low  settings.    A  medium-
low  burn  rate  should  be  the  typical  setting  and  is 
preferable if the stove is to be left unattended.  

LOW  BURN:

  Close  the  primary  air  control  by 

moving  it  fully  to  the  right.    A  low  burn  rate  over 
extended  periods  of  time  is  not  advisable  as  it  may 
promote  the  accumulation  of  creosote.    Inspect  the 
venting  system  frequently  if  low  burn  rates  are 
maintained consistently.  

 

NOTE:

 If equipped  with the optional blower,  the 

following settings are recommended: 

Low  and  Medium-Low  Burn:  Run  the  blower  on  low 
for  slower  moving,  but  warmer  air  circulation.  Turn 
the knob ‘ON’, and then continue turning the control 
knob  clockwise  until  the  blower  is  running  at  a  low 
speed. 

Medium  High  and  High  Burn:  Run  the  blower  on 
high for maximum circulation. The blower speed is at 
its  highest  setting  when  the  control  knob  is  first
