For fireplace installations, first remove the fireplace
damper. It is usually held in place by its own weight,
and is controlled by the damper actuating
mechanism. Center the stove in the fireplace
opening and install 6" stovepipe just beyond the
damper. Make templates to close the remaining
opening of the flue. They should fit snugly around
the stove pipe and should extend about W' beyond
the edge of the damper opening. Convert the tem-
plate to 24 gauge or heavier sheet metal. Discard
the template; install the sheet metal, securing it to
existing masonry or damper opening. Inspect for a
snug fit, using stove cement to fill all cracks, seams
or holes.
WARNING: Only a blower labeled "Russo Ap-
proved" may be used with your # 1 C/W or #2
C/W. Use of other non-approved blowers will void
the safety label required in most states and may
void the stove warranty.

HOW TO USE YOUR STOVE
WARNING: Never use gasoline, gasoline type
lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or
similar liquids to start or "freshen-up" a fire in this
heater. Keep all such liquids well away from the
heater while it is in use.
BURNING WOOD
Wood is burned on the center steel plate supplied
with the #1 C/W. Wood should be burned on top of
the three firebricks packed with the #2 C/W. These
bricks should be placed on the grate with air
spaces allowed between each brick.
Only paper and kindling should be used to start a
fire. The air inlet located on the ash drawer door
and the damper should be fully opened. During
normal use this draft control and the flue damper
should be toward the closed position. The loading
door and ash drawer door should always be shut
when the stove is in operation. Resinous woods
and manufactured logs should not be used in your
stove as they create undesirable by-products
which could damage the stove or chimney system.
