Operating your stove

Instructions for use with

wood

• Pull the secondary air slider (marked

with a double hole) fully forward and

open the primary air slider (marked

with a single hole) fully by pulling the

lever forward.

• Pull the tertiary air slider (Marked with

no holes located under the body of the

appliance) out by approximately 50%

• Lay firelighters or rolled up news-

papers on the grate and add a small

amount of kindling wood to the top.

Place 1 or 2 small logs on the top.

• Light the newspaper or firelighters

using a long taper and push the door

closed but do not engage the locking

handle fully.

• When the fire is burning fiercely, after a

couple of minutes add more logs and

close the door.

• When the fire has become established,

close the primary air (marked with a

single hole) down by pushing the lever

inwards.

• The burning rate can be altered by

moving the secondary air slider

(marked with a double hole) - push the

lever inwards to close down and pull

outwards to increase the burn rate.

• Care should be taken to ensure that

the logs are not placed higher than

the log guard allows. This stove

features a split log guard to allow

differing loads to be managed, only

alter the log guard when the appliance

is fully cold.

Re-fueling

When refueling the stove always refuel

onto a bed of hot embers, fully open

the secondary and primary air controls

until the new fuel is well alight, before

adjusting the air controls for the desired

setting.

If there is insufficient burning material in

the firebed to light a new fuel charge,

excessive smoke emission can occur.

Refuelling must be carried out onto a

sufficient quantity of glowing embers

and ash that the new fuel charge will

ignite in a reasonable period. If there are

too few embers in the fire bed, add

suitable kindling to prevent excessive

smoke.

Operating your stove

Fuel overloading

Never overload the stove - it will work

very well with two medium sized logs.

The amount of fuel specified in this

manual should not be exceeded,

overloading can cause excess smoke.

Daily Maintenance

The ashpan should be checked and

emptied regularly.

Operation with door left open

Operation with the door open can cause

excess smoke. The appliance must not

be operated with the appliance door left

open except as directed in the

instructions.

Air controls left open

Operation with the air controls or

appliance dampers open fully can cause

damage to the appliance. The appliance

must not be operated with air controls,

appliance dampers or door left open

except as directed in the instructions.

• Never leave the stove unattended

until the new fuel is well alight.

• You should never allow the ashes in

the pan to build up to the level of

the grate.

If they are allowed to build up, the grate

will become sandwiched between the

ash below it and above it. This will

overheat the grate and cause distortion

and premature wear.

Persistent fume emission is

dangerous and must be investigated.

If fume emission persists, open doors

and windows to ventilate the room and

let the fire die. Have the chimney

inspected for blockages and clean if

required. Do not relight the fire until the

cause has been found. We recommend

that you seek professional advice.

This appliance has been designed to

be burned with the door closed at all

times other than when refueling.

It should not be operated as an open

fire.

Typical refueling intervals for wood is

1 hour and smokeless fuel is 2 hours.
