INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on purchasing a Masport pot-belly stove. If correctly installed
and operated according to these instructions it will give many years of reliable
service. Following these installation instructions and the instructions
accompanying your flue kit will ensure that the heater complies with the

WE RECOMMEND THAT THE INSTALLATION OF YOUR

CAUTION. SURFACES ON RADIANT HEATERS CAN BECOME VERY HOT. IF
CHILDREN OR ELDERLY AND INFIRM PERSONS MIGHT ACCIDENTALLY
