AIR CONTROLS
This stove is fitted with one air control, this con-
trol operates both the primary and secondary
flow to the stove. The control is located in the
centre of the stove under the door, push the
control to the right to open and to the left to
close. When the control is in the mid position
primary air is fully closed.
The secondary air enters the stove at the top of
the combustion chamber and flows down along
the glass while the primary air enters into the
ash compartment and flows through the grate.
For start up the control can be pushed to the
right for fully open on both primary and sec-
ondary air, when the fire is established the air
control should be pushed to the left beyond the
midpoint to close the primary air, then a position
for the control can be chosen between fully to
the left and mid position based on the desired
burn rate. See Fig.4

RECOMMENDED FUELS
This appliance has been tested using seasoned
wood logs. The appliance is suitable for intermittent
operation in smoke controlled areas using wood
logs.
Wood should be kept under cover and kept as dry as
possible prior to use. Wood logs of diameter less
than 80mm and no more than 500mm long are rec-
ommended.
Do not use liquid fuels or any fuels with a Petro-coke
ingredient as this may cause the grate to overheat
resulting in damage
RE-FUELLING
When refuelling, always refuel onto a bed of glowing
embers, riddle gently if necessary. When refuelling,
adjust the secondary air control to the fully open
position for approximately 3 minutes allowing the
new refuel charge to establish combustion before
adjusting the air control to the desired setting.
Refuelling on to a low fire bed
If there is insufficient burning material in the firebed
to light a new fuel charge, excessive smoke emis-
sion 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 peri-
od. If there are too few embers in the fire bed, add
suitable kindling to prevent excessive smoke.
Fuel overloading
The maximum amount of fuel (2.8 kilograms per
hour) should not be exceeded, overloading can
cause excess smoke.
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.
Remember to reset the controls after refuelling.
DE-ASHING
NOTE - DO NOT OVERFILL THE FIREBOX
Never allow the ashpan to fill more than half way as
it will cause damage to the grate. Empty the ashpan
before lighting. Always ensure that ashes have thor-
oughly cooled before removing the ashpan. Open
the fire door and remove ashpan using the operating
tool. Close the fire door. When the ash is disposed
of, replace the empty ashpan. Do not leave the fire
unattended with the fire door open, even for a
minute.
WARNING - NEVER DISPOSE OF ASH WHEN
STOVE IS LIGHTING.
