1.2 WOOD-BURNING
The SCOTSMAN Wood Furnace will burn most wood fuels, however it is recommended
that only dry, seasoned hardwood be used as much as possible since it affords cleaner,
safer and more efficient operation. Burning seasoned hardwood will leave less ash,
soot and creosote residue and will require fueling less often. Use smaller loads of wood
on warmer days.

WARNING: DO NOT use chemicals or fluids to start the fire or during operation.
DO NOT burn driftwood or manufactured logs (compressed wood).
Before adding fuel to an existing fire turn up the thermostat for about five minutes or lift
damper chain to hold damper fully open for about one minute before opening the
loading door. This action will allow residual smoke to clear from the combustion
chamber and reduce smoke entering the basement during refueling.

Twice daily refueling may be sufficient in modern well-insulated homes. However,
KERR recommends that small fuel loads be added morning, noon and early evening
and late evening, rather than large quantities infrequently. A small intense fire will burn
more efficiently than a large smoldering fire in the SCOTSMAN Wood Furnace and will
produce less creosote.

When refueling the SCOTSMAN, the remaining coals should be raked to the front of the
combustion chamber before adding any new fuel. Place the fresh supply of wood to the
rear of the combustion chamber. This gives more of an even cigar type fuel burn, rather
than a large hot fire to a slow amber fire. This will help create a more even and efficient
burn. The SCOTSMAN owner should attempt to gauge fuel quantities with outdoor
temperatures; a little practice will provide greater satisfaction and efficiency.
