Put a few smaller pieces of wood on the coals first, then load up to the middle of the feed door. 8. Set rheostat setting for type and condition of coal or wood. Hard coal and wood requires more forced air than soft, so experiment with dial setting. Start with a center dial setting. The draft fan cover also requires experimenting with. Start with a 20% opening. 9. Set the furnace thermostat for comfort. Set the other thermostat 10 degrees lower. 10. Use caution when opening loading door. Avoid opening loading door rapidly. This could cause flames to flash out the door. This occurs when there is unburned fuel and a large amount of gases on the top of the firebox. When the door is opened oxygen is combined with the gases and ignites. CAUTION Never let ashes build up to grate level. This will reduce the life span of your grate, and void grate warranty. To remove ash pan simply open ash door and pull out your ash pan. But remember, the ash pan can get very hot. Dump ashes in a metal container with a lid and place on a non-combustible surface. CAUTION Never use anything but a metal container to put your ashes in. Every year fires are caused by emptying ashes into cardboard boxes or paper bags. MAINTENANCE Keep chimney and flue pipe clean by cleaning at least twice during a heating season. CREOSOTEFORMATION 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 slow burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining. When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fire. The chimney connector and chimney should be inspected at least twice monthly 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. CAUTION If you have a chimney fire, we recommend the follow ing immediate actions: ASH REMOVAL Every morning when there is just a bed of hot embers, shake the grate very, very lightly. Once every week or two, depending on how much fuel you burn, ashes should be removed. Note: A 2" to 3" bed of ashes will prolong wood burning and protect grates. 1. Alert everyone in the house. 2. Shut any furnace doors, disconnect power to the unit, and close any dampers. This should take no longer than a few seconds. 3. Call the fire department. Page 22 USSC Keeping your chimney and stove pipe clean is the best insurance against chimney fires. Note: Smoke detectors and fire extinguishers should always be a part of your equipment. If you clean your own chimney and stove pipe, we recommended purchasing the equipment professionals use. Wire brushes are available in enough sizes and shapes to be a snug fit inside any common flue. Once a week let your furnace burn with ash door open for a maximum of fifteen minutes while in attendance. This will help minimize creosote buildup. Also placing a surface magnetic thermometer on flue pipe is helpful to keep temperatures at 300 to 400 degrees. Duct temperatures should be 115 to 125 degrees at 12" above furnace. BURNING COAL Your furnace is capable of burning both Bituminous and Anthracite coal. Anthracite is perhaps the best coal fuel because its long even burn time, high heat output, and cleanliness make it a good choice for the home. However, keep in mind it is a much more difficult fuel to use, requires more care and patience, is not so widely available, and is usually much more expensive than bituminous. SIZE OF COAL: Most sizes of Bituminous Coal will work in your New Furnace, for best results we recommend large nut coal to small egg coal (1-3/4" dia. to 4" dia.). When burning Anthracite, use egg or broken with sizes between 2-5/16" thru 4-3/8". Note that it is important to the long life of your furnace to buy coal which has been sized and cleaned. Cleaning insures removal of rocks and other materials. Never use coal smaller than 1" or larger than 5" in diameter. Small sized coal will smother the fire. Too large a size of coal will not burn well. STOVE OPERATION: All coal fires should be started with wood which will allow the fire to get hot enough to ignite the coal. The best ignition fires utilize dry pine or other resinous soft woods as kindling, with hard wood (oak, hickory, ash) added to increase the heat prior to addition of the coal. BURNING BITUMINOUS: Once your kindling and wood fire has produced a bed of well established coals, start adding coal in layers allowing each to ignite before adding more. Bituminous has a high volatile content and, as a result, should be fired with the "conical method" - with the highest portion of your firebed in the center of the firebox. The first flames will be long and generally orange or yellow and produce quite a bit of smoke. As the gases burn off the flames become shorter, change color and produce less smoke. Once the fire is WELL ESTABLISHED add coal to th...
