Installation and Operation Manual - Osburn 3500
3.2.7 Compressed Wood Logs
Do not burn manufactured logs made of wax impregnated
sawdust or logs with any chemical additives. Manufactured
logs made of 100% compressed sawdust can be burned,
but use caution in the number of these logs burned at one
time. Start with one manufactured log and see how the wood
fire reacts. You can increase the number of logs burned at a
time to making sure the temperature never rises higher than
246°C (475°F) on a magnetic thermometer for installation on
wood fire flue. The thermometer should be placed about 450
mm (18") above the wood fire. Higher temperatures can lead
to overheat and damage your wood fire.
4. Operating Your Wood fire
Before using the stove, the following steps should be completed :
Install the door overlay (see «Appendix 1: Door Overlay Installation»),
Install the blower (see «Appendix 2: Blower and Optional Thermodisc Installation»)
Install the ash lip pan.
Figure 7: Installing the ash lip pan
The following steps are optional :
Install the fresh air intake (see «Appendix 3: Optional Fresh Air Intake Kit Installation»)
Install the thermodisc (see «Appendix 2: Blower and Optional Thermodisc Installation»)
NEVER OVERFIRE YOUR WOOD FIRE. IF ANY PART OF THE WOOD FIRE STARTS TO
GLOW RED, OVER FIRING IS HAPPENING. READJUST THE AIR INTAKE CONTROL AT A
LOWER SETTING.
NEVER LOAD YOUR WOOD FIRE UP TO THE BAFFLE. ALWAYS LEAVE 5 TO 10 CENTIMETERS
TO ALLOW PROPER COMBUSTION THROUGH SECONDARY AIR OPENINGS (NEVER PUT
WOOD ABOVE THE FIREBRICK LINING ON THE FIREBOX). THIS WILL ALSO PREVENT
OVERFIRING OF YOUR WOOD FIRE.
SHOULD THERE BE A SOOT OR CREOSOTE FIRE IN YOUR FLUE SYSTEM, CLOSE THE AIR
CONTROL COMPLETELY. IMMEDIATELY CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
