OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS continued …

10. NEVER OVER FIRE this barrel stove by building

excessively hot ﬁres as a house/building ﬁre may

result.

11. Inspect stove pipe and barrel every 60 days.

Replace immediately if there is rusting or smoke

leaking into the room.

12. If barrel stove begins to glow or turn red, you are

over ﬁring the barrel stove. Immediately adjust

slide draft to the closed position and turn 6” cast

iron damper to a fully closed position. This will limit

the amount of air being allowed into the barrel and

will reduce the burn rate of the ﬁre.

ADDING FUEL

Add small amounts of fuel each hour or so

instead of piling large quantities of fuel at one

time. This will insure a more complete combustion

process and less buildup of tars, soot, or creosote will

occur in the chimney.

1. Always open draft damper before opening the feed

door.

2. When adding fuel be careful not to smother the ﬁre.

3. Close the feed door and secure tightly.

4. Adjust the damper and slide draft control.

5. Empty ashes regularly. Do not allow ashes to pile

up higher than lower edge of the slide draft.

6. Properly dispose of hot ashes (see Safety

Instructions, item #14 on page 2.)

7. Do not over ﬁre the stove (see step #12 above).

OPERATING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

NEVER OVER FIRE THIS STOVE BY BUILD-

ING EXCESSIVELY HOT FIRES AS A HOUSE/

BUILDING FIRE MAY RESULT. YOU ARE OVER

FIRING THE STOVE IF STOVE OR STOVEPIPE

BEGINS TO GLOW OR TURN RED.

NEVER BUILD EXTREMELY LARGE FIRES IN

THIS TYPE OF STOVE AS DAMAGE TO THE

STOVE OR SMOKE LEAKAGE MAY RESULT.

STOVE IS HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. KEEP

CHILDREN, CLOTHING, AND FURNITURE

AWAY FROM HOT STOVE. CONTACT MAY

CAUSE SKIN BURNS. DO NOT TOUCH THE

STOVE AFTER FIRING UNTIL IT HAS COOLED.

PROVIDE AIR INTO THE ROOM FOR PROPER

COMBUSTION.

INSPECT STOVE AND PIPE EVERY 60 DAYS.

REPLACE IMMEDIATELY IF STOVEPIPE IS

RUSTING OR LEAKING SMOKE INTO THE

ROOM.

CAUTION: SLOW BURNING FIRES AND EX-

TENDED USE MAY CAUSE EXCESSIVE CREO-

SOTE BUILDUP. IGNITION OF CREOSOTE

BUILDUP OR OVER FIRING MAY CAUSE A

CHIMNEY FIRE. CHIMNEY FIRES BURN EX-

TREMELY HOT AND MAY IGNITE SURROUND-

ING MATERIALS. IN CASE OF A CHIMNEY FIRE

IMMEDIATELY LEAVE THE BUILDING AND

CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT FROM A SAFE

LOCATION.

CREOSOTE – FORMATION AND NEED FOR

REMOVAL

CAUTION: RISK OF FIRE When wood is burned

slowly, it produces tar and other organic va-

pors, which combine with expelled moisture to

form creosote. The creosote vapors condense

in the relatively cool chimney ﬂue of a slow-

burning ﬁre. As a result, creosote residue ac-

cumulates on the ﬂue lining. When ignited this

creosote makes an extremely hot ﬁre.

The chimney connector, heat transfer barrel

and chimney should be inspected at least once

every two months during the heating season to

determine if a creosote buildup has occurred.

If creosote has accumulated (3mm or more)

it should be removed to reduce the risk of a

chimney ﬁre.

Failure to remove creosote may result in ignition

and may cause a house/building ﬁre. Creosote may be

removed using a chimney brush or other commonly

available materials from your local hardware retailer.

Chimney ﬁres burn very hot. If the unit or chimney

connector should glow red, reduce the ﬁre by clos-

ing the inlet air control and immediately call the ﬁre

department.

CAUTION: A CHIMNEY FIRE MAY CAUSE IGNI-

TION OF WALL STUDS OR RAFTERS WHICH

WERE ASSUMED TO BE A SAFE DISTANCE

FROM THE CHIMNEY. IF A CHIMNEY FIRE

HAS OCCURRED, HAVE YOUR CHIMNEY IN-

SPECTED BY A QUALIFIED EXPERT BEFORE

USING AGAIN.

A ﬁre in the ﬁrebox may be smothered by pouring

a large quantity of coarse salt, baking soda, or cool

ashes on top of the ﬁre.

PREVENTING CREOSOTE BUILDUP

1. Creosote will inevitably form in your chimney and

connector pipe. Following these steps will help

reduce the rate of build up.
