- expelled moisture to form creosote.
e creoso e vapors condense in the relatively
cool
chimney flue lining. When ignited, this creo-
so e makes an extremely hot fire.
The accumulation of creosote is greater with green
wood, pine, and slower burning, cooler fires. Your
chimney connector and chimney should be in-
spected at least twice monthly during the heating
season to determine if a creosote buildup has
occurred. If creosote has accumulated, it should be
removed to help reduce the risk of a chimney fire.
UNPACKAGING AND ASSEMBLY
Remove all external poly wrappings. The loading
door should be removed from its protective foam,
mounted on hinges and checked for proper open-
ing and closing operation. The two pickets should
be installed into the inside frame of the loading
door. The pickets protect the glass from falling
logs.
Both the Russo # 1 C/W and #2 C/W have fire-
bricks lining the combustion chamber of the stove.
The bricks, and in the
#
1 C/W, the pans holding
the bricks, should be checked for proper position-
ing. The ash pan should be checked for proper
position and, if purchased, the optional 265 cfm
blower mounted according to instructions included
with the blower. The Handy Tool should be re-
moved from inside the stove. The baffle, which is
packed inside the #2 C/W, should be positioned in
the stove. (see diagram)
Before installation, your stove and stove pipe
should be burned outdoors to cure the paint and
steel. If this is not possible, and the stove must be
cured indoors, proper ventilation should be pro-
vided to minimize possible smoke and odor.
