Maintenance
Your wood stove is a high efciency stove and, therefore requires little maintenance. It is important to perform
a visual inspection of the stove every time it is emptied, in order to ensure that no parts have been damaged,
in which case repairs must be performed immediately. Inspect and clean the chimney and connector pipe
periodically for creosote buildup or obstructions.
GASKETING
This door uses a 3/8" rope gasket. It is recommended that you change the door gasket (which makes your stove
door air tight) once a year, in order to ensure good control over the combustion, maximum efciency, and
security. To change the door gasket, simply remove the damaged one. Carefully clean the available gasket
groove, apply a high temperature silicone sold for this purpose and install the new gasket. You may light up your
stove again approximately 24 hours after having completed this operation.
AIR TUBES
The air tubes assembled in this unit are designed to provide an accurate mix of secondary air to ensure the
highest efciency. Any damage or deterioration of these tubes may reduce the efciency of combustion. The
air tubes are held in position by either screws or snap pins. Locate these to either side of the tube and remove to
allow the tube to be removed and replaced.
SECONDARY AIR TUBES
The secondary air tubes must be cleaned with a wire brush. If debris remains in holes lightly tap with a wooden
stick to remove.
PAINT
Only clean your stove with a dry soft cloth that will not harm the paint nish. If the paint becomes scratched or
damaged, it is possible to give your wood stove a brand new look, by repainting it with a 1200° F heat resistant
paint. For this purpose, simply scrub the surface to be repainted with ne sand paper, clean it properly, and apply
thin coats (2) of paint successively.
WARNING:
NEVER OPERATE THE STOVE WITHOUT A GASKET OR WITH A BROKEN ONE. DAMAGE TO THE STOVE OR EVEN
HOUSE FIRE MAY RESULT.
