Operator Instructions
Avoiding a Chimney Fire
There are two ways to avoid chimney fires:
1. Do not let creosote build up to a point where a big chimney fire is possible.
2. Do not have fires in the stove that may ignite chimney fires. These are hot fires, such as when burning household
trash, cardboard, Christmas tree limbs, or even ordinary fuel wood; (e.g.. with a full load on a hot bed of coals and
with the air inlet excessively open.)
NOTE: SMOKE AND CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS MUST BE INSTALLED AS PER REGULATION
If smoke detectors have been previously installed, you may notice that they are operating more frequently. This may be
due to curing of stove paint or fumes caused by accidentally leaving the fire door open. Do not disconnect the detectors.
Operation
CAUTION: Never use petrol, petrol type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid or similar liquids to start or "freshen
up" a fire in this stove. Keep all such liquids well away from the stove while it is in use.
CAUTION: Hot while in operation. Keep children, clothing and furniture away. Contact may cause skin burns.
Your PACIFIC ENERGY stove is designed for many years of trouble free operation. Over firing the appliance will shorten
the life of the product. Failure to rectify an over firing condition can be hazardous and may void the manufacturer's
warranty.
Wood Selection
This stove is designed to burn natural wood only. The
Maximum recomended size is 400mm x 100mm The wood
must be less than 22% moisture content. Higher efficiency and lower emissions generally result when burning air-dried
seasoned hardwoods, as compared to softwoods or to green or freshly cut hardwoods.
Wood should be properly air dried (seasoned) for six months or more. Wet or undried wood will cause the fire to smoul-
der and produce large amounts of smoke and creosote. Wet wood also produces very little heat and tends to go out
often.
DO NOT BURN :
• Salt water wood
• Wet or green wood
• Treated wood
• Unseasoned wood
• Coal/charcoal
• Solvents
• Railroad ties
• Garbage
• Lawn
clippings/yard
waste
• Manure or animal remains
• Materials containing rubber, including tires
• Materials containing plastic
• Waste petroleum products, paints or paint thinners, or asphalt products
• Construction or demolition debris
• Materials containing asbestos
• Paper products, cardboard, plywood, or particleboard.
Some of these materials contain chlorides which will rapidly destroy metal surfaces and void warranty.
Burning these materials may result in the release of toxic fumes or render the stove ineffective and cause smoke.
The prohibition against burning these materials does not prohibit the use of fire starters made from paper, cardboard,
saw dust, wax and similar substances for the purpose of starting a fire in an affected wood stove.
Do not burn anything but wood. Other fuels, eg. charcoal, can produce large amounts of carbon monoxide, a tasteless,
odorless gas that can kill. Under no circumstances should you attempt to barbecue in this stove.
WARNING: DO NOT STORE WOOD BENEATH YOUR UNIT.
