14. Ashes should not be allowed to accumulate
higher than the side of the ash pan. Dispose of
ashes in a metal container with a tight fitting
lid. Other waste shall not be placed in this
container. Keep the closed container on a non-
combustible floor or on the ground, well away
from all combustible materials. Keep the ashes
in the closed container until all cinders have
thoroughly cooled. The ashes may be buried in
the ground or picked up by a refuse collector.

occur if the feed door is left open during
operation. Such actions will result in very
dangerous operating conditions.

10. The paint used on your stove may give off
smoke and/or odor during the first fires. This
may occur during the first 12 to 15 fires until
the paint has cured. After the paint has cured
this will end and not reoccur. Persons with
lung conditions or owners of susceptible
domestic pets (such as birds) should take
prudent precautions. Open windows and doors
as needed to clear smoke and odor. If the stove
is overfired, paint discoloration will occur.
11. This stove has a painted surface which is
durable but it will not stand rough handling
or abuse. When installing your stove, use care
in handling. Clean with soap and warm water
when stove is not hot. Do not use any acids
or scouring soap, as these solvents wear and
dull the finish.
12. While stove is in operation, all persons,
especially young children should be alerted to
the hazards from high surface temperatures.
Keep away from a hot stove to avoid burns
or clothing ignition. During operation, small
children should be carefully supervised when
they are in the same room as the stove.
13. Keep stove area clear and free from all
combustible materials, gasoline, and other
flammable vapors and liquids.
