1. Initial (cold) start-up: Leave blower off until your stove
is hot and a good coalbed is established. The blower
may be turned on approximately 30 minutes after a good
coalbed is established.
2. High burn setting: The blower may be left on through-
out the burn at your desired setting.
3. Medium burn settings: The blower should be left off
until a good burn is established, then turned on at your
desired setting.
4. Low burn setting: The blower tends to cool off the
stove. Leave blower off until burn is well established.
Then turn on at your desired rate.
5. The highest blower speed is obtained by turning the
speed control on and then adjusting counterclockwise
towards "OFF" as far as possible without turning the
blower off. For a low blower speed, turn the control knob
clockwise as far as possible.

K. Opacity (Smoke)
Opacity is the measure of how cleanly your appliance is
burning.
Opacity is measured in percent:
• 100% opacity is when an object is totally obscured by
the smoke column from a chimney, and
• 0% opacity means that no smoke column can be seen.
As you become familiar with your appliance, you should peri-
odically check the opacity. This will allow you to know how to
burn as nearly smoke-free as possible (goal of 0% opacity).

L. Frequently Asked Questions
ISSUES SOLUTIONS
Odor from appliance When fi rst operated, this appliance may release an odor for the fi rst several hours. This is
caused by the curing of the paint and the burning off of any oils remaining from manufacturing.
Metallic noise Noise is caused by metal expanding and contracting as it heats up and cools down, similar to
the sound produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect the operation or
longevity of the appliance.
Whirring sound The blower may produce a whirring sound which increases in volume as the speed is
increased.
