Notes on Wood burning
With a full load of wood, the stove will need to be refuelled approximately every 1.5 hours. Wood can be
stacked higher in the stove than solid mineral fuel but care must be taken that logs do not touch the baffle.
Wood burns most efficiently with the primary air controls closed and the secondary control partially open.
Moving the secondary control will control the burn rate of the stove.
Note – primary and secondary air is needed to light the stove, see section entitled
'Lighting the Stove'.
Wood burns best on a bed of ash and it is therefore only necessary to remove surplus ash from the stove
occasionally.
Burn only dry, well-seasoned wood, which should have been cut, split and stacked for at least 12 months, with
free air movement around the sides of the stack to enable it to dry out. Burning wet or unseasoned wood will
create tar deposits in the stove and chimney and will not produce a satisfactory heat output. Do not use liquid
fuels in this appliance.
Lighting the Stove
We recommend that you have two or three small fires before you operate your stove to its maximum heat
output. This is to allow the paint to cure in steadily and to give a long service life of the paint finish. During this
curing in process you may notice an unpleasant smell. It is non-toxic, but for your comfort we would suggest
that during this period you leave all doors and windows open.
First, load the fire with starting fuel, i.e. paper, dry sticks and/or firelighters in the mode chosen, either wood or
solid mineral fuel.
Light the fire at the base leaving all air controls open. Allow the fuel to reach a steady glow and build the fire up
gradually. Once you have a good fire established across the grate bed, further fuel can be added as required.
Shutting Down
In order to shut down the stove, close the primary air controls, then close the secondary air rotary control by
moving the handle all the way to the left. If the controls are left in this position, the fire will be starved of air
and will go out. If you want to revive the fire it is recommended that the primary air controls are open first, and
then open the secondary air rotary control.
Warning! - The stove will remain hot for a considerable time after the fire has been extinguished.
Notes:
Warning! - Petroleum coke fuels, household waste or liquid fuels must not be burnt on this appliance.
Should any difficulties arise over fuel quality or suitability, consult your local approved coal merchant.
Chimney cleaning
The chimney should be swept at least twice a year. It is important that the flue connection and chimney are swept
prior to lighting up after a prolonged shutdown period.
If the stove is fitted in place of an open fire then the chimney will require sweeping after a month of continuous
operation. This is a precaution to ensure that any "softer" deposits left from the open fire usage have not been
loosened by the higher flue temperatures generated by the closed stove.
