Explorer II Medium Wood Stove

G. Building A Fire

Before lighting your ﬁ rst ﬁ re in the stove:

1. Conﬁ rm the bafﬂ e is correctly positioned. It should be

even with the front tube and resting on all tubes. Figure

11.1 and 11.2 on page 11.

2. Remove all labels from glass and inside of stove.

NOTE: The special high temperature paint that your stove

is ﬁ nished with will cure as your stove heats. You will

notice an odor and perhaps see some vapor rise from

the stove surface; this is normal. We recommend that

you open a window until the odor dissipates and paint is

cured.

There are many ways to build a ﬁ re. The basic principle is

to light easily-ignitable tinder or paper, which ignites the fast

burning kindling, which in turn ignites the slow-burning ﬁ re-

wood. Here is one method that works well:

Open the Burn Rate Air and Start-Up Air Controls fully.

2. Place several wads of crushed paper on the ﬁ rebox ﬂ oor.

Heating the ﬂ ue with slightly crumpled newspaper before

adding kindling keeps smoke to a minimum.

3. Lay small dry sticks of kindling on top of the paper.

4. Make sure that no matches or other combustibles are in

the immediate area of the appliance. Be sure the room

is adequately ventilated and the ﬂ ue unobstructed.

5. Light the paper in the appliance. NEVER light or rekindle

ﬁ re with kerosene, gasoline, or charcoal lighter ﬂ uid; the

results can be fatal.

6. Once the kindling is burning quickly, add several full-length

logs 3 inches (76mm) or 4 inches (102mm) in diameter.

Be careful not to smother the ﬁ re. Stack the pieces of

wood carefully; near enough to keep each other hot, but

far enough away from each other to allow adequate air

ﬂ ow between them.

7. Set the Burn Rate Air Control and activate the timer

system (ACC).

8. When ready to reload, It is best to fully open both the Burn

Rate Air and Start-up Air Controls before reloading. This

livens up the coalbed and reduces excessive emissions

(opacity/smoke). Open door slowly so that ash or smoke

does not exit appliance through opening. Large logs burn

slowly, holding a ﬁ re longer. Small logs burn fast and hot,

giving quick heat.

As long as there are hot coals, repeating steps 6 through

8 will maintain a continuous ﬁ re throughout the season.

F. Burn Rates and Operating Efﬁ ciency

For maximum operating efﬁ ciency

1. This appliance has a timer system (ACC) that operates

the stove at its maximum efﬁ ciency removing any guess

work for the homeowner. Follow the instructions below

for each burn rate for the Start-Up Air Control and Burn

Rate Air Control. Figure 9.1

2. Burn dry, well-seasoned wood.

Burn Rates

Primary control is open when moved to the left…

1. Low burn setting- Burn rate control on high for 5 min.

Activate the boost/startup air, then close burn rate con-

trol to stop (move right)

2. Medium low burn setting- Burn rate control on high

for 5 min, Activate the boost/startup air, then 1/8”-1/2”

open (move left from low setting)

3. Medium high burn setting- Burn rate control on high.

Activate the boost/startup air, 1/2 – full open (move left

from low setting)

4. High burn setting: Burn rate control open (left) boost/

startup open.

Note: 1-3 burn settings the fan shall be off for the ﬁ rst 30

minutes and then be operated in the high position at 30

minutes. High burn setting, fan shall be may continue to be

on full after the loading of the fuel.

NOTE:

Due to altitude and other circumstances this

operation information is a guideline, units may run

settings not in accordance with these guidelines to

achieve same desired burn rates.

WARNING

Risk of Fire.

When set on High Burn Rate and over-riding the Auto-

matic Combustion Control system an overﬁ re situation

can occur and may result in a chimney ﬁ re.

Overﬁ ring will void the stove warranty.

NOTE: Operate appliance on High Burn 45 minutes a

day to help keep ﬂ ue/chimney clean.

NOTE:

• Build ﬁ re on brick ﬁ rebox ﬂ oor.

• Do NOT use grates, andirons or other methods to support

fuel. It will adversely affect emissions.

WARNING

Fire Risk

Do NOT store wood:

• Closer than required clearances to combustibles to

appliance

• Within space required for loading or ash removal.

Do NOT operate appliance:

• With appliance door open.

• With ash removal system door open.

• Do NOT burn wet or green wood.

• Store wood in dry location.

• Stack wood so both ends are exposed to air.

Wet, unseasoned wood can cause accumulation of

creosote.

Fire Risk.
