USER INSTRUCTIONS

It is important to keep an approximate minimum depth of ¾" (20mm) of wood ash in the

fire box at any time. You will achieve this after the first few firings.

Place 1 or 2 firelighters in the bottom, then add some kindling wood criss-crossed, and

finally a small log on top. Light the firelighters, open the air vent to maximum (to the

right) and close the door to the first latch so there is an air gap around it.

Leave it like this for around five minutes or so, the fire should be well alight and the door

can now be closed to become air tight. Leave the air control lever to the right for a further

10 to 20 minutes to get the stove completely up to running temperature. If the stove

does goes out when the door is closed then the flue is still too cold and will not pull, in

this case you may need to leave the door open with kindling burning for longer. The flue's

pull will change dependant on temperature and atmospheric conditions.

The best lever position to achieve maximum efficiency will depend on the chimney draw,

but will normally be near the centre. Every chimney is different, and you will eventually

find your stove's optimum position. This is when the flames are swirling in a lazy manner

around the stove, not roaring. If the lever is pushed too far to the left, you starve the fire

of oxygen, causing the glass to darken. Move the lever a small amount to the right until

the glass just stays clean. We do not recommend use of a stove thermometer – the high

efficiency of the stove means flue gases are cool and would give an inaccurate reading,

leading to over firing and damage to internal components.

The best way to run any wood stove is 'little and often'. If you are with the fire, it is best

to keep adding a small log every 45 minutes rather than adding large ones every 2 hours.

THE STOVE IS NOT DESIGNED TO BE USED WITH THE DOOR OPEN!

To reload, open the door slowly to allow the pressure to equalise. Using the glove

provided, place the fresh log towards the rear of the appliance. Close the door.

Do not over load the stove with wood and close the damper down, this produces lots of

creosote and blackens the glass
