and the refractory and paint to cure. You may notice

anindustrialodortherstfewres.Thisisconsidered

normal.

• Usewell-seasonedwood.

• Place crumpled or twisted paper under the replace

grate.

• Looselyarrangekindlingorsmallpiecesofwoodtoform

a‘tent’onthereplacegrate.

• Pre-warm the ue to establish a draft to help reduce

smokespillageduringstart-up.Holdarolleduppieceof

burningnewspaperundertheueforafewmoments.

beenestablished.

C. Starting a Fire

NOTICE: You must establish a good draft to prevent smoke

spillage into the room.

WARNING! Risk of Fire! Keep combustible materials,

gasoline and other ammable vapors and liquids clear of

the replace.

DO NOT:

• store ammable materials close to the replace

• use gasoline, lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter

uid or similar liquids to start or “freshen up” a re in this

replace.

Keep all ammable liquids well away from the replace while

it is in use. Combustible materials may ignite.

B. Seasoned Wood

Properlyseasonedwoodisimportantforsuccessful

operationofyourreplace.Mostwoodburningreplace

problemsarecausedbyburningwet,unseasonedwood.

Seasonedrewoodiswoodthatiscuttosize,splitandair

driedtoamoisturecontentofaround20%.

Imagineawoodenbucketthatweighsabouteight

pounds.Fillitwithagallonofwater,putitinthereplace

andtrytoburnit.Thissoundsridiculousbutthatisexactly

whatyouaredoingifyouburnunseasonedwood.

Atreecutdownayearagoandnotsplitislikelytohave

almostashighamoisturecontentnowasitdidwhenit

wascut.

PleaserefertoSection2.Mformoredetail.
