MONTANA INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION:
Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel,
kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liq-
uids to start or freshen up a fire in this fire-
place. Keep all such liquids well away from the
fireplace.
WARNING!
Fireplaces equipped with doors should be op-
erated only with the doors fully open or fully
closed. If doors are left partially open, gas and
flame may be drawn out of the fireplace open-
ing, creating the risk of both fire and smoke.
Note: The first three or four fires should be of mod-
erate size to allow the oils and binders to be burned
from the fireplace and the refractory and paint to cure.
You may notice an industrial odor the first few fires.
This is considered normal.
As you use the fireplace, expansion and contraction
will cause minor cracking of the refractory. This is
normal, unavoidable, and will not affect the perfor-
mance of the fireplace. If the cracks become large
enough that the metal behind the refractory is ex-
posed or large pieces fall out, the panels should be
replaced.
7. Starting a Fire
Check the flue damper to be certain it is in the full open position. Place crumpled or twisted paper under the fireplace grate. Loosely
arrange kindling or small pieces of wood to form a layer above the paper.
The fires must be built on the fireplace grate, without danger of the burning fuel falling out of the fireplace opening.
Light the paper and add small pieces of wood until a hot bed of embers has been established.
After establishing the fire bed, and the small firewood is burning briskly, add a minimum of three average sized pieces of split
firewood, place the wood in such a manner to allow combustion air and flames between them.
