Drafting PerformanceThis appliance relies upon natural draft to operate. External forces, such as wind, barometric pressure,
topography, or factors of the home (negative pressure from exhaust fans, chimneys, air infiltration, etc.),
may adversely affect draft. Travis Industries can not be responsible for external forces leading to lessthan optimal performance.

Operating Your Appliance17

Safety Notice
If this appliance is not properly installed, a house fire may result. For your safety, follow the installation
directions. Contact local building or fire officials about restrictions and installation inspection
requirements in your area.
Read and follow all of the warnings on pages 4 and 5 of this manual.

Before Your First Fire
Verify the Installation
Before starting the stove, verify that the stove is properly installed and all of the requirements in thismanual have been followed.
Keep all flammable materials 36" away from the front of the stove (drapes, furniture, clothing, etc.).

Curing the Paint

2 to 4 hours

This heater uses a heat-activated paint that will emit some fumes whilestarting the first fire. Open doors and windows to the room to vent these
fumes. This typically lasts two to four hours. You may also notice oil burning
off of the interior of the heater. This rust-stopping agent will soon dissipate.
Door Gasket - The door gasket might adhere to the paint on the front of theheater. Leave the door slightly ajar for the first fire and be careful when
opening the door after the first fire.

Over-Firing the Stove
This stove was designed to operate at a high temperature. But due to differences in vent configuration,
fuel, and draft, this appliance can be operated at an excessive temperature. If the stove top or other area
starts to glow red, you are over-firing the stove. Shut the air control down to low and allow the stove tocool before proceeding.
Over-firing may lead to damage of plated surfaces. If any portion of the heater glows red, it isconsidered over-firing and will void the warranty.

Operating Your Appliance19

Bypass Operation
The bypass controls the flow of smoke inside the heater. When pulled out, smoke goes directly up theflue, creating more draft. When pushed in, the smoke goes around the baffle, utilizing the secondary
combustion and making the heater more efficient.
•

When starting or re-loading, pull the bypass out.

•

During normal operation, push the bypass in.

Use the included pull tool
to operate the bypass rod

Starting a Fire
Since the dawn of time man has debated the best way to start a fire. Some use the boy-scout "tee-pee",some prefer the "tic-tac-toe" stack. Either way, review the hints and warnings below to ensure proper firestarting.
•

Make sure the air control is pushed in and the by-pass pulled out. If additional air is needed, open
the doors 1/4" during the first five minutes of start-up.

Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to startor "freshen up" a fire in this stove. Keep all such liquids well away from the stove while it is in use.
DO NOT USE CHEMICALS OR FLUIDS TO START THE FIRE. DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR
FLAMMABLE FLUIDS SUCH AS GASOLINE, NAPHTHA OR ENGINE OIL. Do not place such fuelwithin space heater installation clearances or within the space required for charging and ash removal.
If using a firestarter, use only products specifically designed for stoves - follow the manufacturer's
instructions carefully.
HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. KEEP CHILDREN, CLOTHING AND FURNITURE AWAY. CONTACT
MAY CAUSE SKIN BURNS.
If the smoke does not pass up the chimney, ball up one sheet of newspaper, place it in the center of thefirebox and light it. This should start the chimney drafting (this eliminates "cold air blockage").
Use plenty of kindling to ensure the stove reaches a proper temperature. Once the kindling is burning
rapidly, place a few larger pieces of wood onto the fire.

Starting a “Top-Down Fire”
One particularly successful method for starting a fire is tostack several large pieces of wood in the center of the stove(see the illustration to the right). Then place a several wadsof newspaper in the center with kindling on top. When you
light the newspaper this “top-down” fire will burn its way tothe center, igniting the larger pieces. With some practice,
this method should work for you.

Adjusting the Burn Rate
Use the air control slider to control the burn rate of the stove. See the illustration below for details.
Use the air control tochange the burn rate.

Low Burn

High Burn(air control closed)(air control open)

Approximate Air Control Settings:
Overnight Burn

Pulled Fully Out to 1/32" In

Medium Burn

1/32" to 1/16" In

Medium High Burn

1/16" to 3/16" InHigh Burn

3/16" to Pushed All the Way In

The air control becomes hot during operation - use gloves or a tool to prevent burns.
The air control may take several minutes to influence the burn rate. When making adjustments, you
may wish to let the stove burn for 10 minutes to gauge performance.

Ash Removal
ASHES

Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The closed container of ashes
should be placed on a noncombustible floor or on the ground, away from all combustible
materials, pending final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locallydispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have thoroughlycooled.

Operating Your ApplianceBlower Operation
The blower will turn on once the stove is up to temperature. This is typically 15 to 30 minutes after
starting the fire. Follow the directions below to alter the blower speed.

HIGH

OFF
Turn the dial all theway counter-clockwise
until it clicks off.

The high position is all theway counter-clockwise,
without clicking off.

LOW
Turn the dial all
the wayclockwise.

The blower may be used to affect heat output (i.e.: to reduce heat output, turn the blower down).
Route the power cord in a location where it will not come in contact with the appliance or become hot.

Re-Loading the Stove
Follow the directions below to minimize smoke spillage while re-loading the stove.
1

Open the air control all the way (push it in). Open the bypass (pull it out).

2

Open the door slightly. Let airflow inside the firebox stabilize before opening the doors fully.

3

Load wood onto the fire.

Overnight Burn
Follow the steps below to achieve an overnight burn.
1

Move the air control to high burn and let the stove become hot (burn for approximately 15 minutes).

2

Load as much wood as possible. Use large pieces if possible.

3

Let the stove burn on high for 15 minutes to keep the stove hot, then turn the air control to low.

4

In the morning the stove should still be hot, with embers in the coal bed. Stir the coals and load
small pieces of wood to re-ignite the fire, if desired.
Differences in chimney height and draft may lower overall burn times.
Creaks and Clicks:

Normal Operating Sounds

The steel may creak or click when the stove heats up
and cools down - this is normal.
Blower Sounds:
The blower will make a slight "humm" as it
pushes air through the stove.

Hints for Burning•Get the appliance hot before adjusting to low burn•Use smaller pieces of wood during start-up and high burns to increase temperature•

Use larger pieces of wood for overnight or sustained burns•

Stack the wood tightly together to establish a longer burn•Leave a bed of ashes (1/2" deep) to allow for longer burns•

Be considerate of neighbors & the environment: burn dry wood only•

Burn small, intense fires instead of large, slow burning fires when possible•

Learn your appliance's operating characteristics to obtain optimum performance

Selecting Wood•

Dry Wood is Key•

Dry wood burns hot, emits lesssmoke and creates less creosote.

•

Testing Wood Moisture•

Split wood stored in a dry area will
be fully dry within a year. This
insures dry wood. If purchasing
wood for immediate use, test thewood with a moisture meter. Someexperienced wood burners canmeasure wood moisture byknocking pieces together andlistening for a clear "knock" and nota "thud".

Why Dry Wood is Key
Wet wood, when burned, must release water stored within the wood. This cools the fire, createscreosote, and hampers a complete burn. Ask any experienced wood burner and he or she will agree: drywood is crucial to good performance.

Wood Cutting and Storage
Cut wood to length andchop into quarters.

Store the wood off the ground in acovered area. Allow for airflow
around the wood to dry the wood.

Let the air stabilize before fully opening the door.
Then open the door approximately 1 inch. Let air go
into the firebox for a few seconds. Once the smoke
appears to be flowing up the chimney consistently,
open the door.

•

Insufficient Draft - Chimney height and outside
conditions can negatively affect draft. In these cases asmall amount of smoke may enter the home. Adding
more pipe or a draft-inducing cap may help.

to 30 minutes.

•

Electricity is Cut to the Blower - Check the household
breaker or fuse to make sure it is operable.

•

Depending upon wood, draft, and other factors, theburn time may be shorter then stated. Make sure thedoors are sealing and not allowing air into the firebox See the section "Door and Glass Inspection" on page
26 for details.

•

Check the ash bed for coals. Often, coals are still
glowing under a slight bed of flyash. By raking these
into a pile you can re-start your stove quickly.

4110712Maintaining Your Appliance

25

Failure to properly maintain and inspect your appliance may reduce the performance and life of theappliance, void your warranty, and create a fire hazard.
Establish a routine for the fuel, wood burner and firing technique. Check daily for creosote build-up until
experience shows how often you need to clean to be safe. Be aware that the hotter the fire the lesscreosote is deposited, and weekly cleaning may be necessary in mild weather even though monthly
cleaning may be enough in the coldest months. Contact your local municipal or provincial fire authority
for information on how to handle a chimney fire. Have a clearly understood plan to handle a chimney
fire.

Daily Maintenance (while stove is in use)
Remove Ash (if necessary)•

Ash removal is not required once it builds up. 1/2" to 1" of ash may be desirable because it slows theburn rate. Generally, remove ash once it has built up over 1". Follow the directions below to removeash.
1

Let the stove cool completely (at least two hours after the last coal has extinguished).

2

Place a cloth or cardboard protector over the hearth to catch ash and protect against
scratching.

3

Open the doors and scoop the ash into a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The
closed container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible floor or on the
ground, away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal.

ASHES

Improperly disposed ashes lead to fires. Hot ashes placed in cardboard boxes, dumped in back yards,
or stored in garages, are recipes for disaster.
Wood-burning stoves are inherently dirty. During cleaning have a vacuum ready to catch spilled ash(make sure ash is entirely extinguished).
There are vacuum cleaners specifically made to remove ash (even if the ash is warm). Contact yourdealer for details.

Clean the Glass (if necessary)
This appliance has an airwash to keep the glass clean. However, burning un-seasoned wood or burning
on lower burn rates leads to dirtier glass (especially on the sides). Do not clean glass with abrasive
cleaners. Allow the stove to fully cool before cleaning.
Apply glass cleaner or soapy water to the inside of the glass. Wipe with newspaper or a paper towel toclean. For stubborn creosote, dip a moist paper towel or newspaper in cold ash before cleaning. The
ash acts as a mild abrasive.

The glass will develop a very slight haze over time. This is normal and will not affect viewing of the fire.

Maintaining Your Appliance

Monthly Maintenance (while appliance is in use)
Make sure the appliance has fully cooled prior to conducting service.

Door and Glass Inspection
The door can be lifted off the hinges if extensive repairs are conducted.
The door must form a seal to the firebox for the stove to work correctly. Inspect the door gasket asshown below.

Use RTV hightemperature silicone toadhere any loose
gasket.

If the glass is damaged,
replace it - see“Replacement Parts” fordetails.

Severely frayed or thread-baregasket should be replaced.

Door Latch Adjustment
The door latch should pull the door against the face of the stove (but not so tight as to not allow fullhandle rotation). If the latch requires adjustment, follow the directions below.

Remove the face. Loosen the bottom nut
with a 7/16” wrench (see arrow to the right).
Tap the bottom nut inwards, moving the door
catch inwards. Tighten the nut and test
operation. You may need to repeat thisprocess, either moving the nut inwards oroutwards, until the door catch is in thecorrect position.

Door Handle

Creosote - Formation and Need for Removal
When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors, which combine with expelled
moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slowburning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining. When ignited, this creosote
makes an extremely hot fire. The chimney and chimney connector should be inspected at least once
every two months during the heating season to determine if a creosote buildup has occurred. If creosote
has accumulated, it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney fire.
If you are not certain of creosote inspection, contact your dealer or local chimney sweep for a fullinspection. Excess creosote buildup may cause a chimney fire, that may result in property damage,injury, or death.
Operating this appliance continually at a low burn rate (air starvation) or using green (un-seasoned)
wood will increase the formation of creosote.

Yearly Maintenance
Make sure the appliance has fully cooled prior to conducting service.

Touch Up Paint
Included with the owner's pack of this appliance is a can of Stove-Brite®
paint. To touch up nicks or dulled paint, apply the paint while the appliance iscool. Sand rusted or damaged areas before preparation (use 120 grit
sandpaper). Clean and dry the area to prepare the surface. Wait at least one
hour before starting the appliance. The touched up area will appear darker
than the surrounding paint until it cures from heat. Curing will give off somefumes while curing – open windows to ventilate.

Touch-Up
Paint

Cleaning the Air Duct and Blower (if applicable)
Use a vacuum to clean the air ducts (channels). This prevents dust from burning and creating odors.
The blower should be vacuumed every year to remove any buildup of dust, lint, etc.

Remove the face. Use avacuum cleaner to remove any
debris or dust in the convection
chamber or near the blower(WARNING: do not touch theblower blades).

Firebrick and Baffle Inspection
Use the illustration on page 28 as a reference for checking the following items. Make sure the applianceis cool before proceeding.
Baffle - check the baffle plate and bricks along the ceiling of the firebox to make sure they are intact.
Check the bypass assembly.
Secondary Air Tubes - Check the air tubes and collars to make sure they are intact and not severely
deteriorated. Slight scaling or rusting of the metal is normal. Make sure the air tubes are secured
correctly.
Floor and Wall Firebricks - replace any severely damaged firebrick along the side or floor of the firebox.

Replacing the Glass
The glass must not contact the door retainer or glass clips directly. The glass gasket and glass clip
gaskets insulate the glass to prevent cracking. Do not over-tighten the glass clips.
Lay the glass gasket in the door frame (cut off excess gasket). Place the glass on the gasket. Secure
the glass clips to hold the glass in place (make sure the glass clip gaskets are in place).

Replacing the Door Gasket
The door gasket inserts into the outer groove of the door retainer. Stove gasket cement holds it in place.
Before installing, remove any residual cement. Lay the gasket in place (start at the lower left corner) andcut off any excess gasket (do not stretch the gasket. The cement fully cures with heat from the stove.
You may need to open and close the door repeatedly to get the gasket to seat fully.
