OTHER COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS AWAY FROM STOVE. CONTACT MAY CAUSE SKIN BURNS.
3. If you plan to use an existing chimney with your stove, inspect it thoroughly to make sure that it is sound and

of a chimney re.
10. Keep a re extinguisher rated for "Class A" res near the stove. The dry chemical type is recommended, as liquid
