Fire cautions warn that any splits or racks near the stove and the fire line are dangerous. Ashes should be put out in a metal vessel not a wooden receptacle. Never throw hot ashes in windy conditions. Stovepipe joints should be riveted to prevent sparks. Ashes should be taken from the stove and disposed of at dusk to avoid windborne sparks.
