2.4 EPA Loading
The loading methods shown below are those that were used during emissions certification.
2.4.1 Air control
The air control is located underneath the ash shelf. To open the air
control, push the air control handle completely to the left (High).
This will increase the burn rate. To close the air control, push the
air control handle completely to the right (Low). This will decrease
the burn rate.
2.4.2 High burn rate (primary air control open)
Open the air control completely. Place six small pieces (2"x2") of wood in the firebox crossing
them at the greatest possible angle. Criss cross fifteen kindling wood pieces on the small pieces
of wood in three layers at the greatest possible angle. Tie knot with five sheets of paper and
place them on top of the kindling wood. Light up the paper and let the door ajar at 90° until all
the kindling wood is on fire and the first row of small pieces of wood is on fire too. Close the
door.
When there is no more fire in the front of the firebox and there are only faint flames on the wood
in the back of the firebox, break ashes, level the coal bed and put four logs in the firebox. Place
the biggest log (about 5"x5") and a medium log (about 4"x4") on the coal bed with a north-south
orientation. Place two other medium logs on the first two with the greatest possible angle. Their
should be air space between each logs and between the logs and the bricks. Let the door ajar
at 90° for approximately two minutes and then close the door.
2.4.3 Medium and low burn rate
On a 2" coal bed that is still slightly red, place five logs of approximatively 4"x4" or 3"x3" with
a north-south orientation. Place three logs on the coal bed and the other two on top with the
greatest possible angle. Their should be air space between each logs and between the logs
and the bricks. Let the door ajar at 90° for approximately 5 min. Then, close the door with the
primary air control open. Leave to burn with the primary air control open for approximately 10
minutes and then close the primary air control completely for the low burn rate and halfway for
the medium burn rate.

3. Clearances to Combustible Material
The clearances shown in this section have been determined by tests according to procedures
set out in safety standards ULC S627 (Canada), UL 1482 (U.S.A.) and UL 737 (U.S.A.). When
the stove is installed so that its surfaces are at or beyond the minimum clearances specified,
combustible surfaces will not overheat under normal and even abnormal operating conditions.
No part of the stove or flue pipe may be located closer to combustibles than the minimum
clearance figures given.
The clearances to combustible walls may be slightly different in Canada and the U.S.A. and may
also differ depending on whether single or double wall flue pipe is used. Make sure to choose
the correct clearance for the stove location and type of flue pipe.
The clearances of the appliance and the flue pipes must be met individually, meaning the appliance
cannot be installed closer to the combustible materials than the single or double wall pipe allows.
For a safe way to reduce clearances refer to section"5. Reducing Wall and Ceiling Clearances Safely".

4. Floor Protection
This stove is designed to prevent the floor from overheating. However, it must be placed on a
non-flammable surface to protect the floor from hot embers that may fall during loading.
The floor protection must be a continuous, non combustible material, such as steel with a minimum
thickness of 0.015" (0.38 mm) or ceramic tiles sealed together with grout. Cement board, brick, or
any other approved or listed material suited for floor protection. No R factor required.
Any type of tile will require a continuous non combustible sheet beneath to prevent the possibility
of embers falling through to the combustible floor if cracks or separation should occur in the
finished surface. Check local codes for approved alternatives.
No protection is required if the unit is installed on a non-combustible floor (ex: concrete).

5. Reducing Wall and Ceiling Clearances Safely
It is often desired to use as little space as possible when installing
a wood stove. To do this, it is possible to reduce the clearances
safely and install the stove closer to the walls by permanently
installing a heat shield between the stove and the flammable
material.
The rules for heat shields are sometimes complicated. Read
and apply the instructions carefully. Some regions may have
different regulations. Consult the local building code or contact
the fire department for restrictions, inspection and installation
requirements in the area.
5.1 Shield Construction Rules
−
Adhesives used in shield construction must not ignite or lose adhesive qualities at temperatures
likely to be encountered.
− Mounting hardware which extends from the shield surface into combustibles may be used only
at the edges of the shield.
− Mounting hardware must allow full vertical ventilation.
A) Minimum clearance between the appliance
top and an unshielded combustible ceiling:
46 ½" (1181 mm)
B) Shield extension above the appliance: 20"
(500 mm)
C) Minimum space behind the shield: 1" (25 mm).
In Canada 7/8" (21 mm)
D) Clearance along the bottom of the shield:
minimum 1" (25 mm) and maximum 3" (75 mm)
E) Minimum clearance along the top of the
shield: 3" (75 mm)
F) Mounting hardware must not be located
closer than 8" (200 mm) from the vertical
centre line of the appliance.
G) Edge clearance for ceiling shields to side and
back walls: 3" (75 mm)
H) Shield extension beyond each side of the
appliance: 18" (450 mm)

7. Maintenance/Parts Replacement
Do not clean the glass when the stove is hot.
Do not abuse the glass door by striking or slamming shut.
Do not use the stove if the glass is broken.
7.1 Replacement
The glass used is a ceramic glass, 5/32" (4 mm) thick, 15 ⅞" x 9 ⅞" (403 mm x 251 mm), tested
to reach temperatures up to 1400º F. If the glass breaks, it must be replaced with one having
the same specification.
THE IMAGES SHOWN ARE FOR GUIDANCE ONLY AND MAY BE DIFFERENT FROM YOUR PRODUCT,
BUT THE ASSEMBLY REMAINS THE SAME.

E
1. Remove the door (E) from its hinges and lay it on a soft, flat surface.
2. Remove the six screws (A), the six glass retainers (B), and the metal frames (C).
3. Remove the glass (D). If it is damaged install a new one in place. The replacement glass must
have a gasket all around (see procedure below).
4. Reinstall the glass, being careful to centre the glass in the door and not to over-tightening the
retaining screw.
The two main causes of broken door glass are uneven placement in the door and over-tightening
the retaining screws.
Page 32
Installation and Operation Manual - Wood Stove
ENGLISH
7.2 Gasket
The glass gasket is flat, adhesive-backed, woven fibreglass. The gasket must be centred on the
edge of the glass.
1. Follow the steps of the previous section to remove the
glass.
2. Remove the old gasket and clean the glass thoroughly.
3. Peel back a section of the paper covering the adhesive
and place the gasket on a table with the adhesive side
up.
4. Stick the end of the gasket to the middle of one edge,
then press the edge of the glass down onto the gasket,
taking care that it is perfectly centred on the gasket.
5. Peel off more of the backing and rotate the glass. The
gasket must not be stretched during installation.
6. Cut the gasket to the required length.
7. Pinch the gasket onto the glass in a U shape, all around
the glass.
7.3 Door
In order for the stove to burn at its best
efficiency, the door must provide a perfect
seal with the firebox. The tightness of the
door seal can be verified by closing and
latching the door on a strip of paper. The
test must be performed all around the door.
If the paper slips out easily anywhere, either
adjust the door or replace the gasket.
Page 33
Installation and Operation Manual - Wood Stove
ENGLISH
7.3.1 Adjustment
In order for the stove to burn at its best efficiency, the door must provide a perfect seal with the
firebox. Therefore, the gasket should be inspected periodically to check for a good seal. The
gasket seal may be improved with a simple latch mechanism adjustment:
1. Remove the split pin by pulling and turning it using pliers.
2. Turn the handle one counterclockwise turn to increase pressure.
3. Reinstall the split pin with a small hammer.
Figure 17: Removing the split pin Figure 18: Installing the split pin
7.3.2 Gasket
It is important to replace the gasket with another having the same diameter and density to
maintain a good seal.
1. Remove the door and place it face-down on
something soft like a cushion of rags or a piece
of carpet.
2. Remove the old gasket from the door. Use a
screwdriver to scrape the old gasket adhesive
from the door gasket groove.
3. Apply a bead of approximately 3/16" (5 mm)
of high temperature silicone in the door gasket
groove. Starting from the middle, hinges side,
press the gasket into the groove. The gasket
must not be stretched during installation.
4. Leave about ½" long of the gasket when cutting
and press the end into the groove. Tuck any loose
fibers under the gasket and into the silicone.
5. Close the door. Do not use the stove for 24 hours.
