I. Starting a Fire
Check the ue damper to be certain it is in the full open po-
sition. Place crumpled or twisted paper under the replace
grate. Loosely arrange kindling or small pieces of wood to
form a layer above the paper.
The res must be built on the replace grate, without danger
of the burning fuel falling out of the replace opening.
Light the paper and add small pieces of wood until a hot bed
of embers has been established.
After establishing the re bed, and the small rewood is burn-
ing briskly, add a minimum of three average sized pieces of
split rewood, place the wood in such a manner to allow
combustion air and ames between them.
Note: The rst three or four res should be of moderate
size to allow the oils and binders to be burned from the
replace and the refractory and paint to cure. You may
notice an industrial odor the rst few res. This is considered
normal.
Note: When rst lighting your replace, it may be necessary
to pre-warm the ue to establish a draft. This is done by
holding a rolled up piece of burning newspaper under the
ue damper for a few moments. This will help reduce smoke
spillage during start-up.
Odors and vapors released during initial
operation.
Curing of high temperature paint.
Open windows for air circulation.
Odors may be irritating to sensitive individuals.
CAUTION
