  • Page 6: Installation

    INSTALLATION IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE INSTALLATION OF YOUR OSBURN WOODFIRE BE CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED SPECIALIST INSTALLER. IF ANY ELECTRICAL WORK IS REQUIRED, IT MUST BE CARRIED OUT BY A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN. WARNING: The instructions pertaining to the installation of your wood stove comply with the AS/NZS 2918 standard.

  • Page 7: Positioning The Stove

    POSITIONING THE STOVE It is very important to position the wood stove as close as possible to the chimney, and in an area that will favour the most efficient heat distribution possible throughout the house. The stove must therefore be installed in the room where the most time is spent, and in the most spacious room possible.

  • Page 8: Clearances To Heat-Sensitive Materials

    It is of outmost importance that the clearances to heat-sensitive materials be carefully maintained upon installation of the stove you have selected. Refer to the table below : CLEARANCES TO HEAT SENSITIVE MATERIALS Model OSBURN 1800 125mm 450mm 75mm 300mm 200mm ...

  • Page 9: Reduced Clearances Using Shielding

    REDUCED CLEARANCES USING SHIELDING You may decrease the minimum clearances to heat-sensitive materials by installing heat radiation shields between the walls or the ceiling and the stove. These heat radiation shields must be installed permanently, and must be made of a heat-resistant or heat-tolerant material. An air gap must separate the heat shield from any heat-sensitive surface.

  • Page 12: Testing Your Wood

    Many problems related to the operation of a wood stove are caused by the fact that the wood used is too damp or has dried in poor conditions. These problems can be:  problems lighting the fire  creosote build-up causing flue fires ...
  • Page 13 Before igniting the paper and kindling wood, it is recommended that you warm up the flue. This is done in order to avoid back draught problems often due to negative pressure in the house. If such is the case, open a window slightly near the stove and twist together a few sheets of newspaper into a torch.

  • Page 14: Heating

    If you push it fully to the left, the combustion air is reduced to a minimum. Your OSBURN stove may burn differently according to the species of wood used, its moisture content, the size and density of the pieces, the length of the flue, the altitude, and outside temperature.

  • Page 15: Reloading

    RELOADING Once you have obtained a good bed of embers, you should reload the unit. In order to do so, open the air control to its maximum for approximately 15 seconds prior to opening the stove door. Then, proceed by opening the door very slowly; open it by 20 to 40 mm for 10 to 15 seconds before opening it completely.

  • Page 16: Creosote Formation And Need For Removal

    CREOSOTE FORMATION AND NEED FOR REMOVAL When wood is burnt slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapours, which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapours condense in the relatively cool flue of a slow- burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the flue system. When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fire.

  • Page 17: Ash Disposal Using Ash Drawer

    ASH DISPOSAL USING ASH DRAWER Make sure the fire is out, and the stove is cold. Lift the ash dump plug at the left rear of the firebox by hooking the poker through the loop on the cover and lifting up. Push the ashes through the hole and leave some ashes to cover the ash dump plug once it is replaced.

  • Page 18: Baffle Installation And Brick Notes

    BAFFLE INSTALLATION AND BRICK NOTES 1. Stack the baffle boards (A) on top of the vermiculite boards (B) as shown in figure 3a . Figure 3a 2. Put them on the horizontal air duct (C) (see figure 3b). Afterwards, push them towards the bottom and sides so that they rest on the back of the firebox (D) and on the side air ducts.

  • Page 19: Secondary Air Tubes Replacement

    4. Install the middle (F) and rear (G) secondary air tubes ensuring air holes face forward. Install the cotter pins as in fig 13. All firebrick and duraboard baffles must be properly in place for correct burning operation. Have any damaged firebricks replaced. Check the firebricks annually for damage and replace if they are broken or damaged.
  • Page 20 Remove cotter pin at LH end of tube. Slide tube to right and lower tube end below LH plenum. Slide tube to left to remove. Reassemble in reverse order using a new cotter pin. The cotter pin is a hammerlock style and locks into place by hitting the head sharply with a hammer.
