CARBON MONOXIDE, FIRE & EXPLOSION HAZARD
There are serious hazards associated with using this stove and fuel. Accidental
fire, explosion, and misuse can cause death, serious burns, and property
damage. You are responsible for your own safety and the safety of those in
your group. Please use good judgment.
This stove is for OUTDOOR USE ONLY. Never use this stove in a tent, car,
house, or any enclosed area. This stove consumes oxygen and produces carbon
monoxide, which is poisonous and has no odor. This stove can easily ignite
nearby combustible materials and flammable liquids or vapors. If you use this
stove in an enclosed area, you can be killed or seriously burned.
Keep stove and fuel canister away from other heat sources. Never place empty
cookware on a burning stove, boil cookware dry, or burn food in cookware.
Dry cookware or burned food can overheat the canister and cause it to explode
or leak fuel. Never use any kind of windscreen. Never use non-WindBurner
cookware, because these accessories can overheat the fuel canister. If you
expose the fuel canister to high heat, it will explode and you can be killed
or seriously burned.
Never let children use this stove. Keep children at least 10 feet (3+ meters)
away from the stove and cooking area and supervise them at all times.
READ, UNDERSTAND, AND FOLLOW ALL instructions and warnings in this
manual before using this stove. Failure to follow warnings and instructions can
result in death, serious burns or other injuries, and property damage.

DANGER
Never attempt to use this stove (1) before you have read and fully understood this
Instruction Manual, (2) if you are not prepared or comfortable attending to a burning or
hot stove at all times, (3) if you observe leaking fuel, or (4) if you observe any condition
with the stove system or in the surrounding environment that would make operation of
an open-flamed device dangerous. Failure to follow these directions can cause an unsafe
situation leading to fire, burns, severe injury or death.
This stove is only designed for the outside boiling of water or cooking of food—never
use it for any other purpose. Use of stove in any enclosed space (e.g., tents) or purposes
other than boiling water or cooking food can cause fire, burns, severe injury or death.
Never disassemble stove beyond what is specified in these instructions. Never modify
stove. Disassembly or modification of stove in any manner not consistent with these
instructions voids its warranty and can result in an unsafe situation where fire, burns,
severe injury or death can occur.
Because of the compact nature of the WindBurner
Stove System and its resulting height,
the WindBurner stove system may tip more easily than stove systems of lesser height. To
mitigate tipping (1) use stove only with WindBurner cookware, (2) never leave the stove
unattended, (3) keep children and pets far away from stove, (4) always use stove on a
solid stable, even surface, and (5) never use stove in a manner inconsistent with these
instructions or contrary to its intended use. Tipping of the WindBurner stove system can
result in an unsafe situation where fire, burns, severe injury or death can occur.
THERMAL TRIP MECHANISM
GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
To avoid being killed or seriously burned, READ, UNDERSTAND, AND FOLLOW ALL
warnings and instructions in this manual before you use this stove.
This stove is a lightweight, compact device made for cooking outdoors. Cooking out-
doors is more hazardous than cooking as you normally would at home. Please consult
with your local outdoor retailer to learn more about cooking outdoors. Seek qualified
instruction before you venture outdoors.
You are responsible for your own safety and the safety of those in your group. This
manual is not intended to replace your good judgment.
Fuel Canister Safety
This stove uses a liquid pressurized gas (LPG) canister that is highly flammable and
explosive. Use only MSR
®
IsoPro
or MSR Butane-Propane fuel canisters (4 ounces/
113 grams or 8 ounces/227 grams) with your WindBurner
stove, as it may be
hazardous to use other canisters. Follow this safety information:
Listen and smell for leaking gas. Leaking gas is a serious hazard. LPG is
invisible and odorless, and strong odorant additives can fade over time. Leaks
are not always detectable by smell.
Check that the stove and fuel canister connection is secure and tight. If the con-
nection does not look or feel secure, or if you hear or smell leaking gas, do not
use stove or canister. Move it to a well-ventilated area away from any ignition
source to locate and stop the leak.
Never use fuel canisters that weigh more than 8 oz. (227 g) and never
use canisters more than 4 inches (~10 cm) high, because oversized canisters
increase stove instability.
Use MSR canister stand when using canisters with a diameter less than 4 inches
(~10 cm).
Keep stove and fuel canister away from other heat sources. If you expose the
fuel canister to high heat, it will explode or leak and you can be killed or
seriously burned.
Follow all warnings on fuel canister regarding use and storage.
The WindBurner
stove is designed with an internal Thermal Trip mechanism,
which will shut the stove off if it becomes overheated. Overheating may result
from the use of incorrect cookware, storage in an excessively hot environment,
damage to the burner unit, or improper lighting.
The Thermal Trip mechanism can be reset once and only if the stove is cooled
to a safe temperature. Note that repeated resetting of the stove may result in
damage to internal components which may cause fuel to leak and cause fire,
burns,severe injury or death. If the stove’s Thermal Trip is activated more than
once, discontinue use of the stove and contact Cascade Designs customer ser-
vice department. (See Troubleshooting.)
RESETTING THERMAL TRIP
1. Wait 5 minutes for stove to cool.
Disconnect fuel canister from stove.
2. Open the Flame Adjuster counterclockwise 2 full turns.
3. Insert one leg of Fuel Canister Stand into the hole in stove’s mixer tube.
Inserted leg should stop against mixer tube.
4. Rotate the leg clockwise to press the brass jet downward until a click is heard.
5. Close the Flame Adjuster before reconnecting fuel canister.
Stove is now ready for use.
