Max Blank offers a line of floor protectors that meet the above requirements. Please contact your local
dealer for more information.
VENTILATION
(Residential homes, which do not require an outside air inlet).
Ventilation is essential when using a solid fuel stove. The combustion process uses oxygen from inside the
home and it may be necessary to open a window or install a vent to provide combustion air in a house that
is well insulated.
OUTSIDE AIR
In many site built residences (subject to local code), a stove may be required to use outside air for
combustion. Washington State requires outside air adapters on all K02 and K03 models.
Most of Max Blank products have outside air adapters. Please contact your dealer for details.
WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT THE FLOOR OR SUBFLOOR IS DESIGNED TO
CARRY THE EXTRA WEIGHT OF THE STOVE.
CHIMNEY CONNECTION
The chimney connector is a single walled pipe used to connect the stove to the chimney. For use with the
Max Blank K02 and K03 woodstoves the chimney connector MUST be 6" in diameter, with a minimum
thickness of 24 gauge black steel or 26 gauge blued steel.
Aluminium and galvanized steel pipe is not acceptable for use with Max Blank woodstoves. These materials
cannot withstand the extreme temperatures of a wood fire and can give off toxic fumes when heated.
Do not use the connector pipe as a chimney.
Each chimney connector or stove pipe section must be installed to the stove flue collar and to each other with
the male (crimped) end toward the stove. See fig 5.

This prevents any amount of condensed or liquid creosote from running down the outside of the pipe or the
stove top. All joints, including the flue collar connection must be secured with three sheet metal screws to
ensure that the sections do not separate.

NOTE — This appliance is NOT approved for installation into a Manufactured (Mobile) Home in Canada
or United States.
COMBUSTIBLE WALL CLEARANCE
WARNING: IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU OBSERVE THE MINIMUM CLEARANCES.
Below are listed clearances for your stove which were determined in a Laboratory test using various "classes"
of stovepipe or chimney. Minimums are first established for the stove itself and increased based on how much
heat is transferred by each class of pipe.
RESIDENTIAL REDUCED CLEARANCE
Using Listed L Vent pipe(double wall air insulated) to the top of the stove not required for product.
Clearances may only be reduced by means approved by the regulatory authority.

FLOOR PROTECTION
This appliance requires a non - combustible floor protection for ember protection. If the floor protection is to
be stone, tile, brick, etc., it must be mortared or grouted to form a continuous non - combustible surface. If a
chimney connector extends horizontally over the floor, protection must cover the floor under the connector
and at least 2" (51 mm) to either side. The floor protection must extend completely beneath the stove and to
the front, sides, and rear as indicated:
USA REQUIREMENTS
16" (40.7 cm) minimum to the front of the fuel door glass

NEVER LEAVE AN UNATTENDED STOVE BURNING ON HIGH. Operation of the stove with the
primary air control at its highest burn rate setting for extended periods can cause dangerous overfiring
conditions. The primary air control should only be positioned at the highest setting during start-up
procedures and for short durations. When leaving the stove unattended ensure that the primary air control is
set to the low or medium low range.
IN THE EVENT OF CHIMNEY FIRE - Make sure the fuel door is securely closed. Adjust the primary
air control to the lowest (most closed) setting. Call the fire department immediately. After a chimney fire, the
complete chimney system should be checked by a qualified technician before further use. Consult your
dealer for suggestions on proper chimney care. Contact your local municipal or provincial fire authority for
information on how to handle a chimney fire. Have a clearly understood plan for handling a chimney fire.
IN THE EVENT OF A COMPONENT FAILURE, USE ONLY COMPONENTS PROVIDED BY
THE MANUFACTURER AS REPLACEMENT PARTS. SEE YOUR LOCAL APPROVED
DEALER FOR PARTS.
Burning any kind of fuel uses oxygen from the dwelling. Be sure that you allow an adequate source of fresh
air into the room where the stove is operating
CAUTION: HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. An appliance hot enough to warm your home can severely
burn anyone touching it. Keep children, clothing and furniture away. Contact may cause skin burns. Do
not let children touch the appliance. Train them to stay a safe distance from the unit.
Do not operate this appliance without all the firebox brick and baffle properly installed.
Build fires directly upon the brick(shamotte) inside the stove. Do not use grates, irons or any other
method to elevate the fire.
LOCAL BUILDING OFFICIAL RECOMMENDATION
A correct installation is critical and imperative for reducing fire hazards and perilous conditions that can
arise when wood burning appliances are improperly installed. The installer must follow all of the
manufacturers' instructions. The installation of a wood - burning appliance must conform to local codes and
applicable state and federal requirements. Familiarity with these requirements before installation is
essential. Consult your local Building Inspector or Fire Marshall before installation of a Max Blank stove
regarding any restrictions and installation inspection requirements in your area. Also, in some areas, special
permits are required.
WARNING: ELECTRICAL GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS: (ON SPECIFIC MODELS ONLY)
THIS APPLIANCE MAY BE EQUIPPED WITH A THREE -PRONG (GROUNDING) PLUG FOR
YOUR PROTECTION AGAINST SHOCK HAZARD AND SHOULD BE PLUGGED DIRECTLY
INTO A PROPERLY GROUNDED THREEPRONG RECEPTACLE. DO NOT CUT OR REMOVE
THE GROUNDING PRONG FROM THIS PLUG.
SMOKE DETECTORS
Since there are always several potential sources of fire in any home, we recommend installing smoke
detectors. If possible, install the smoke detector in a hallway adjacent to the room (to reduce the possibility
of occasional false activation from the heat produced by the stove). If your local code requires a smoke
detector be installed within the same room, you must follow the requirements of your local code. Check
with your local building department for requirements in your area, such as rooms where installation may not
be allowed.

INSTALLATION
PRECAUTIONS AND SPECIFICATIONS
If utilizing an older chimney, it must be inspected for adequate serviceability. It highly recommended that
you have a professional mason or stove installer do a complete check -up of your chimney, liner and flue.
The minimum clearances must be maintained for all combustible surfaces and materials including;
furniture, carpet, drapes, clothing, wood, papers, etc. Do not store firewood within this clearance space.
Failure to maintain clearances to all combustibles may result in a house fire. Pile and store wood
outdoors under cover.
WARNING — THIS APPLIANCE REQUIRES NON - COMBUSTIBLE FLOOR PROTECTION.
See you local dealer for approved floor protectors.
Minimum ceiling height must be 7 feet (213 cm) (measured from base of appliance to ceiling).
DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE THAT IS CONNECTED TO
ANOTHER APPLIANCE, and do not connect this appliance to air ducts or any air distribution system.
PREVENT CREOSOTE FIRE: Inspect and clean chimney frequently. Under certain conditions of use,
creosote buildup may occur rapidly. Inspect chimney connector and chimney twice monthly and clean if
necessary. Using green or inadequately seasoned wood can greatly increase creosote buildup. Use dry
wood to minimize creosote buildup.
Creosote — Formation and Need for Removal - When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar
and other organic vapors, which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote
vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow burning fire. As a result, creosote
residue accumulates on the flue lining. When ignited this creosote makes an extremely hot fire.
Also, creosote deposits tend to form in long runs of venting where gases become too cool prior to
exhausting. Note: Single wall pipe cools rapidly, therefore installations using this type of flue are
more susceptible to creosote deposits. To inhibit the build up of creosote, adjust the primary air
control to a medium -high or high setting for a 10- minute period each day. Do not attempt to burn
out heavy creosote accumulations in this manner. This must be removed from the chimney by
scraping or brushing to reduce the risk of a chimney fire.
USE SOLID WOOD FUEL ONLY: This appliance is approved for burning dry seasoned natural wood
only. CAUTION: BURN UNTREATED WOOD ONLY. DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR
FLAMMABLE FLUIDS SUCH AS GASOLINE, NAPHTHA, OR ENGINE OIL.
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
DO NOT OVERFIRE: If heater or chimney connector glows, you are overfiring. Overfiring this appliance
could cause a house fire. Overfiring is a condition where the appliance is operated at temperatures above its
design capabilities. Overfiring can be caused by improper installation, improper operation, and lack of
maintenance or improper fuel usage. Damage caused from overfiring is NOT covered under the
manufacturers limited warranty.
