ROOM HEATER FEATURES
Before attempting to install or operate your heater, it is a good idea to familiarize yourself with the features and
operating controls of the unit.

NOTE: “Do not use grate or elevate fire. Build wood fire directly on inner bottom of fire box.”
1. Bypass Damper: The bypass damper control is located in top center of heater front just under top. It is
operated by pushing or pulling the rod. The damper is fully open when the handle is pulled out and fully
closed when it is pushed in. The damper must be open before the door is opened.

the variable speed blower. For blower to operate turn switch from “OFF” position to either “LOW”,
“MEDIUM” or “HIGH”. When stove temperature reaches 110oblower will automatically come on.
