MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
The Harvester Model HR-01 has minimal maintenance requirements; however, failure to perform cleaning or
maintenance items will lead to degraded performance and potential safety hazards for both the home and its
occupants. The Harvester stove should not be operated routinely without thorough monthly cleaning (or more
often) depending on frequency of use.
The three most common maintenance chores will be:
a) Refilling the hopper with fuel as needed.
b) Cleaning the firebox and glass as required, satisfying the customer.
c) Emptying the ash bin to ensure ash buildup does not interfere with operation.
Country Flame strives to use high quality low maintenance components in the Harvester.
STOVE DOOR INSTALLATION
The Harvester door has been mounted and checked for proper fit at the factory. If the door is removed for any
reason, care must be taken in reinstalling the door to ensure proper alignment and fit. Setting the door is quite
simple. Ensure the door is in the fully open position. Once done, align the female portion of the door hinge
with the male portion of the stove hinge. Gently lower the door hinges over the stove hinge pin. Once the
door hinges have been set, the door can be closed to check for proper fit. The Harvester door installation
should now be complete. To remove the door, simply lift up on the door from the stove hinges. Store the
door in a secure place. If the door is left sitting, ensure that the door cannot fall and injure someone or
damage the door or glass. The Harvester door has been adjusted at the factory. If the door fit is not
satisfactory, the homeowner can adjust the door using the hinge screws, refer to FIGURE 19.
