RULES FOR CONNECTOR PIPE
INSTALLATION
1. The pipe should be firmly attached to the collar top
with 3 screws and sealed with stove cement.
2. Slope any horizontal pipe upward toward the chimney
at least 1/4” for each foot of horizontal run.
3. You must have at least 18” clearance between any
horizontal piping and the ceiling.
4. The pipe cannot extend into the chimney flue.
5. Seal each connector pipe joint with stove cement.
Also seal the pipe at the chimney.
6. Use 3 sheet metal screws at each joint to make the
piping rigid.
7. It is recommended that no more than two (2) 90
degree bends be used in the stove pipe installation as
more than two (2) may decrease the amount of draw
and possibly cause smoke spillage.
NOTE: The chimney connector shall not pass through an
attic, roof space, floor, ceiling, or similar concealed space.
Where passage through a wall or partition of combustible
construction is desired, the installation must conform
with NFPA 211.
OPERATION OF THE STOVE
1. Fully open slide draft on ash door and keep spin
damper on feed door closed.
2. Burn coal only. Use wood for coal ignition purposes
only. Build six (6) small fires upon initial firing. Light
wood using paper, twigs, etc.
3. After the fire has been started and is burning
satisfactorily, close slide draft almost all the way.
4. Open/adjust spin draft on feed door to allow additional
air into the stove (on top of the fire). This will allow a
more ecient burn cycle.
5. Never build extremely large fires in this type stove as
damage to the stove or smoking may result.
6. DO NOT touch the stove after firing
7. Never over fire this stove by building excessively hot
fires as a house/building fire may result.
8. Inspect stove pipe every 90 days. Replace
immediately if stove pipe is rusting or leaking smoke
into the room.
9. This is a cast iron stove. It does not have welded
seams. From time to time you may have to “tune-
up” the stove by refilling and/or replacing the stove
cement or mortar along the seams.
10. If stove begins to glow or turn red, you are over firing.
CAUTION:
OVER FIRING THE APPLIANCE MAY CAUSE A
HOUSE FIRE. IF A UNIT OR CHIMNEY CONNECTOR
GLOWS, YOU ARE OVER FIRING.
CAUTION:

FUEL, KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID, OR
FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS TO START OR “FRESHEN
UP” A FIRE IN THE HEATER.
