Hardwoods nrc preferred 10 softwoods since the energy content of wood is relative to its density. Hardwoods will result in a longer burning fire and less frequent refueling. The MAGNUl\l ZC should be fueled with wood cut to 18" (457 nun) or less in length. Moisture content of 15% 10 20%. wood seasoned for approx imately two (2) years is preferred. Excessively wet wood will be difficult 10 bum, and will result in lower efficiency. increased crcosoring, and deposits on the glass. Excessively dry wood will bum well but will also have higher emissions and shorter burning time. Do not bum scrap or garbage, treated wood or wood s uch as driftwood from the ocean which has been exposed 10 salt or other chemicals. Salt or chemicals can corrode the firebox and chimney. Do not abuse the unit by burning large amounts of paper or cardboard. Christmas tree branches or building construction materials such as pressed wood, plywood, or lumber cannot be used. Intense firing with these may overheat the fireplace, causing damage to the unit or a chimney fire if the chimney is creosoted. nRST FlI1ES Labels, which may have been applied to the glass, arc easily removed before the fireplace is started. The first 5 or 6 fires should be small fires of short duration (about 30-60 minutes). The first fire should be especially short. This will help cure (dry) the refractory bricks and paint. The first fires may produce slight smoking and smell due to curing of the paint and steel, and any dust accumulated on the fireplace will be bum! off at this time. fo r this reason the room should be well ventilated for the first few fires. HUII./JIN(,' A nNE To start a fire, place several crumpled up balls of newspaper in the firebox. Place small dry pieces of kindling on top of the paper, crisscrossing the kindling so that there arc air spaces in between. Place larger pieces of kindling on top of the pile. Open the damper and combustion air controls fully and light the newspaper. Once the newspaper and kindling arc well ignited cordwood can be added. The unit will bum best with 2-4 pieces of cordwcod spaced I" (25mll1) to 2" (50 mm) apart allowing air to get under the fuel. Crisscrossing, or arranging the fuel so thai air can get underneath, will help the fire to get started easily. The unit should be operated with the damper and combustion air controls fully open long enough to get the cordwood well ignited. The airtight doors should be left open approximately )" until the fire is well established (usually 30-45 minutes). Th is will help keep the glass clean. IM MPER / COMIlUS ITON A IR CON TROI.S When starting a fire, open the damper and combustion air controls to the full open position (damper handle straight up and ZC-60 combustion air knob pulled out). After the fire has had sufficient time to ignite, close damper control to desired setting, approximately 2/3 to fully closed) Normally the combustion air control will be left fully open when the fire is burning, and closed when you are no longer using the unit. If you have excessive chimney draft or want the unit to bum slower adjust the control up to V, closed. MA(l NUM/£ MANUAI. - NO'fmbcf 2009 PAOE - - 4 NOTE: When you partially o r fully close the co mbustion air-control yo u will get add itional buildup o f soot o n the glass. When the unit is not in operatio n close the damper a nd the combustion air co ntrol s all the way to minim ize cold a ir penetration (fros ting) o f the unit glass when it is cold. Always open the damper co ntrol fully o pen before ope ning the d oor, 10 minimize the possibility o f bac k drafting (smoke) comi ng into the room . Allow approx imately 10 S1.'COnds o f time before ope ning the doors. A CCEL ERATED COM BUST/ON (Iii!:" lInl' Olllplll) The max imum heat o utput for the MAGNU l\l 'I.e is achieved by burn ing with the doo rs closed and the damper nnd co mbustion air co ntrols fully ope ned. By this met hod , the MAGNUM ZC can prod uce 85,000 + BTU' s of heat pe r hour. It will be necessary to reload with wood eve ry one to two ho urs. Th is is the least e fficien t method of'b urnlng the MAGNUM ZC and mu st not be done for long per iods o f time. Usc caution when firing wit h the dampe r co ntrol wide open. Only bum hard eo rdwood in this manner. Never bum scra p wood or softwood in this mann er. Damage to the firebo x o r chimney fires cou ld occur. Do not ove rfill with wood in an atte mpt to prolong reload ing lime. Too much wood may cause an over fire condition d amaging the fireplace. Ne ver load o ve r 3-4 pieces of wood at a time a ll (his setting. MEDI UM COM BUS T/ ON This is the recommended way to ope rate you r MAG NUI\I ZC to ach ieve the highest level o f e fficiency and the least amou nt of creosote on the glass and in the chimney. The damper control should he appro ximately 2/3 closed and the combustion a ir 2/3 to fully open. Th e prec ise selling will de pend o n many factors, incl udi ng chimney he ight, house air tightness a nd the moisture con lent o f the wood. Three (3) to fou r (4) med ium size pieces of split wood (ranging from 4" to 8" in diame ter should be burning o n a bed of hot coals. T he heat ou tput will be approximately 65,000 BTU per hour and the loading time will be 3 104 hou rs. So ftwood s may be burned us ing this method but b um time will be substantially reduced. S I.OWCOM IlUSTION Place four (4) to six (6) pieces of split wood six (6) inches o r greater in diameter on to p o f a hot bed of coals. Close the dam per con trol 213 to fully closed lind adj ust the combustion ai r control 2/3 closed. Th is method o f burni ng should be used o nly after operating the MAGNUM with the da mper control op cn to produ ce a hot fire (sec Refueling Fo r Best Performance). Creosote fro m the fire may accumulate on the glass doors unless the firebox is hot. ze Slow combustio n can be used at nigh t in order to reduce the heat output and 10 prolong the bum . Althou gh active bu rning will appear to cease a fter 4 to 6 hou rs, a bed o f hot coa ls w ilt continue to bu m and prod uce hea l. These coal s will remain hot throughout the night and will fac ilitate re-light ing the fire the next morning. This method of o peration will accele rate creosote acc umulatio n in the chimney. There fore, it will be nec essary to inspect and clean the chi mney more frequen tly. MA{lN UMlC MANUAl. - N"",m!>t,2009 PAm: •• s RE-FIIHING FOR /l ES T PERFORMA NCE Th e l\l A(; NUl\1 Z C will operate best if attention is given to operating the unit with the damper op en fo r a sho rt period o f time after refueling in order to bring the fuel load as wel l us the fireplace/chim ney system , tip to its optimum op erating temperatu re. By operating the M AG NUM ZC with a hot start afte r re fuel ing, the MAG NUM ZC can achieve the bum rates o f slow com bustio n, but with the tempe rature a nd performance o f medi um co mbustion. Combustio n effi ciency is relative 10 firebo x temperatu re, and therefore ensuring that there is su fficienllcmpcralure in the firebox will improve pcrfonnancc. Once the firebox is ha l enough so that names reach beyond the baffle, the damper ca n be closed 10 the m inimum selling. If the [lames do not continue beyon d the edg e o f the baffle, the air control should be reopened to establish a holler fire . The bene fit of this technique will be clea ner glass, less crcosotl ng, greate r e fficiency, and the most plea sing fire for your enjoymen t. S MOKING: Cm"ws amI Iro"hle.<;luwlilll: To red uce the likelihood o f smoki ng when ope ning the doo rs, open the dampe r before open ing the doors. Your firep lace has bee n designed and tested to p rovide smoke free ope ration. Occa sionally there may be a sma ll amount o f smoking upon lighting the fire, until the chimney heats up. bu t this should not co ntinue. If the fireplace co ntinues to smoke it is probably du e to one or mo re of tile foll owi ng reasons : 1. T il E IJOOltS AIU: PAIHI ALLV O I'I,:N ./ Open boih doors fully when opening them . 2. NOT ENOUGH IlE I' LAO :MENT Alii (HOUSE Il EI'IU:SSUllI ZATI ON) ./ As the fire bums, air goes lip the chimney. This air 1II11St be replaced through leakage into the house, or lhrough the outside air duct (if installed). When operating jhe MAGNUM ZC. the outs ide air supply should be open. Opcn a nearby window temporar ily 10 check the adeq uacy of the replacement air supply. Correct depressurization problem by installing make-up air. 3, VI:NTILATO Il FAN OI' EIl ATI NG (HOUSE Il EPIl ESSUllI ZATI ON) ./ Th ese fans draw air 0111o f the house and may actually drew air down the chimney. Open a nearby window and tum off all fans to determine if this is the ca use of the problem. 4. TO O LAIlG E 01' A FIIl E ./ Do not bum more than 3"-4" medium (4" diameter) (100 nun} size logs at a lime. 5. WETWOOn ./ Wet or tarred wood will smolder and smoke instead of bum properly. 6. murv O R IILOCKlm C IIIMNF.V ./ Check to make sure the chimney is clear and reasonably clean. 7. C III MNEY HI:IGIIT NOT SUFFIC IENT ./ The chimney IIIl1st extend at least 3' (9 15 mm) above its point of COil tact with the roof and at least 2' (6 10 mm) higher than any roof or wall within 10' (3 m) of it. When Installed with offsets, additional height is required 10 maintain the minimum height and to compensate for the decrease in draft. Additional height will increase draft and will decrease the tendency to smoke if ca used by low draft. Tall buildings, trees, and surrounding hills will cause down drafts resulting in back drafting (smoking) when opening the fireplace doors. 8. NEGATIVE IIUESSUltE IN T in: 1I0USE MAONUM1.c MANU....I, - N""~mbcr 2009 PAOE •• 6 ./ With no fire, there should be sufficient dran to exhaust cigarette smoke or other smoke introduced under the barnc. If the chimncy has b"ee n installed properly and is opcret log properly, thenthe smoke should go lip the flue. Chimneys that have lin installation defi ciency, or one or more of thc above problems. may be drawing cold air down the Ilnc and into the room. TI1Cse chimneys will often smoke temporarily on startup until the chimney is heated up. Closing upstairs windows and opening a nearby window will help to overcome smoking caused by house depressur ization. I MPOR TA N T POIN J:4i : • Use Solid Fuel Only ./' ./' ./' ./' 1>0 1I0t block the hot air vents or air inlet to the fireplace, as this will cause the fireplace to o verheat.

A SIJ ES Remove ashes o nly when the fire is out and the ashes are cold . Place the ashes in a metal co ntainer with a tight fitting lid. Do not put ashes in II cardboard box , and do not place the container on or ncar combustible material. The ashes remain hot for days and can start II fire. Do not leave the ashes in the house as they give off ca rbon monoxide and other toxic gases. Stirring the as hes in the firebox occasio nally when loading wood will cause them to bum thorou ghly and reduce the need for remo ving the ashes. M AClNUMZC MANUAl - Novcmbct2009 !'Alm - - 7 ~ MA I NTA INING YOWl MAG NUM II zc CRf.'OSOTE When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organ ic vapors, which combine with expe lled moisture to fonn a black deposit. called creosote. The creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney Ilue of a slow-burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining. When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fire. lf the creoso te accumu lation is large. a creosote fire in the chimney can damage the chimney and overheat the surrounding wood framing. Creosote formation in a chimney can be minimized by making small hal fires rather tha n slow burning, smoldering fires, and by proper refueling techniques. The l\tAG N U~ 1 ZC is designed and tested to produce a low amount of emissions when operated correctly. CH IMNEY MA I N TENA NCE Regular chimney inspections and maintenance combined with proper operation will prevent chimney fires. Keep your chimney clean. Do nor allow more than 1/16" creosote buildup in your chimney. 111e amount of creosote will depend on variables such as frequency of use and type of fire. We recommend that you : ./ Initially inspec t the chimney system every month or two. From this you will learn how often it will be nec essary to clean your chimney. ./ l iavc your chimney cleaned by a qualified chimney sweep. If yOIl wish to clean it yoursel f, we recommend using a stiff plastic or non-metallic brush. If a metal brush is used. its size should be slightly smaller than the flue to avoid damaging the chimney. Do not lise a brush Ihal will scratch the stainless steel interior of the ch imney. Do not expec t che mical cleaners 10 keep your chimney clean. ./ The rain cap can be removed for inspection and/or cleaning of the chimney. 1)f.i1UN G WITH A CH IMNEY n n E Regular chimney maintenance and inspection combined with proper operat ion can prevent chimney fires. If you have a chimney fire, follow these steps: Close the fireplace doors and damper I combustion air dampers. Alert your family of the possible danger. Alert your fire department. If possib le. use a dry chemical fire extinguisher. baking soda or sand to control the fire. Do not usc water as it may ca use a dangerous steam explosion. S) Check outside to ensure that sparks and hoi embers coming out of the chimney arc not igniting the roof. 6) Do not usc the fireplace again until your chimney and fireplace has been inspected by a qualified chimney swee p or II Fire Department Inspector.
