A combustible surface is anything that can burn (i.e. plaster, wall paper, wood, fabrics etc.)These surfaces are not limited to those that are visible and also include materials that are behind non-combustible material. Timber frames behind gyprock are considered combustible.
!
IMPORTANT: Frames must also be considered. Timber window frames must be treated as combustible surfaces. Aluminium frames can be treated as noncombustible surfaces

3. INSTALLATION (CONTINUED) 3.5 Engaging The Firebox
! Assemble the shaft & bearing system in the following order:
!
1. Push the thrust bearing over the shaft.
2. Engage the firebox. If firebox is to be locked insert locking plates before engaging.
3. Push the second bearing over the shaft.
4. Push the bearing cap over the second bearing.
5. Tighten the first 16mm nut. If necessary back the nut off slightly until the firebox rotates freely.
6. Tighten the second 16mm nut against the first.
7. Insert the split pin.
IMPORTANT Ensure the threaded shaft DOES NOT KNOCK against the firebox when engaging.
! THIS CAN DAMAGE THE THREAD. ! The firebox MUST BE LIFTED PARALLEL when engaging.
Item NO.
NOTE: The bearings are shipped in the correct order on the shaft.

3. INSTALLATION (CONTINUED) 3.5 Floor protection
!
• You will require a hearth to protect any combustible floor beneath the firebox. Your floor protection must extend 30cm beyond the diameter of the firebox in all directions.
!
• If installed directly on combustible material, the floor protector must be made of a 30mm thick sheet of material with a thermal conductivity of a 0.21W/m.K. Non-combustible finishes can be applied to the floor protector (tiles, steel sheet, light concrete, etc).
!
• If the combustible floor is installed on concrete, you can replace the combustible material with a non-combustible material laid directly onto the concrete.

4. USING THE AETHER ! 4.1 What you should burn • Maximum load capacity: No more than four large logs (not exceeding 110mm in diameter) at a time.
• Untreated, air dried hardwood
• Split logs with a humidity content of less than 20%
4.2 Do not burn • Trash
• Painted plastic
• Coated or preservative treated wood
• Waste or black coal
• Inflammable liquids
• Fire gels
! !
• Moist wood with a residual humidity content of more than 20% (this may cause soothing of the chimney).
IMPORTANT:
• Misuse may lead to unhealthy and environmentally harmful emissions and will void any warranty or guarantee.
• Burning only seasoned hardwood helps to protect the environment and lower emissions.
WARNING: • DO NOT USE FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS OR AEROSOLS TO START OR REKINDLE THE FIRE.
• DO NOT USE FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS OR AEROSOLS IN THE VICINITY OF THIS APPLIANCE WHEN IT IS OPERATING.
• DO NOT STORE FUEL WITHIN HEATER INSTALLATION CLEARANCES.
CAUTION:
• THIS APPLIANCE SHOULD BE MAINTAINED AND OPERATED AT ALL TIMES IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
• THE USE OF SOME TYPES OF PRESERVATIVE-TREATED WOOD AS A FUEL CAN BE HAZARDOUS.
!
• DO NOT TOUCH THE FIREBOX OR FLUE WHEN HOT.

4. USING THE AETHER !
IMPORTANT FOR YOUR SAFETY & THE LONGEVITY OF YOUR FIRE
4.3 High Temperature Stove Paint Initial Firing Process
!
Your stove has been painted with the highest quality coating used in
the heating appliance industry. We have selected Stove
Bright® brand coatings because the product has been proven durable,
colourfast, and beautiful at temperatures to 1200°F.
Stove Bright® high temperature paint has been air dried creating a quality coating.
To optimise the performance of the coating, and to maximise its durability, it needs
to go through a heating process. This process is explained on the next page and
should be followed as closely as possible during the first burn of your
new suspended fireplace. Once this initial firing process is successfully
completed, the coating will bond to the metal with a colourfast finish
that will last for years

4. USING THE AETHER 4.3 High Temperature Stove Paint Initial Firing Process - continued
!
Do the following BEFORE you fire the stove for the first time:
1. Ventilate: Open doors and windows in the room with the stove.
To speed dissipation of odour from the initial firing process,
you can place a fan in the room to move the air.
2. Vacate: The fumes from the initial heating process are non-toxic,
but may be uncomfortable for babies, small children, pregnant
women, elderly, pets, or anyone with breathing difficulties.
! INITIAL FIRING PROCESS !
1. Slowly bring the stove to a medium burn, about 205°C, for
about 45 minutes.
!
2. Increase the burn temperature to a hot burn, about 315°C, for
an additional 45-60 minutes.
! ! !
NOTE: During the initial firing process there are changes in the paint
causing it to give off an odour and some visible smoke. The fumes are
non-toxic, but can be unpleasant. Ventilate and vacate the room to avoid
discomfort. Once the burn is complete there will be no odour or smoke
the next time the stove is fired.
