FINAL CHECK
1. Recheck the specified clearances.
2. Remove all foreign material from the firebox area.
3. Open the primary air draft.
4. Plug the power cord into a 115V AC outlet when using with optional motor.
5. Place crumpled pieces of newspaper in the stove. Light it and close the doors. Ensure that
the stove draws properly through the primary draft.
6. Check for smoke leaks around the door.
If a thorough review of the Troubleshooting Guide in the rear of the manual does not reveal
the problem, contact your dealer for assistance.
CAUTION
Open the doors and check for smoke escaping from the front of the stove. Smoking
usually indicates a defective or poorly positioned chimney. Some chimneys with a
marginal draft can be preheated by lighting newspaper and holding it near the open
damper with a poker or fire tong. Once the chimney heats up, a proper draft can usually
be obtained.
CAUTION
The unit is painted with a specially formulated high temperature paint that cures during
the first two or three firings. You may notice a slight smoking effect and an odor of
burning paint when you build the first fires. This is normal and is not a cause for
alarm. In some cases, these fumes will activate a smoke alarm. Opening a window near
the unit will allow these fumes to escape. DO NOT build a large, roaring fire until this
curing is complete or the heater finish may be damaged.
