Whilst burning solid fuel it can be beneficial to occasionally riddle the
grate bars so any burnt fuel will fall between the grate bars into the ash pan
below. This will ensure a good under draught is maintained. This should
be done with the supplied operating tool whilst wearing protective gloves.

Burning solid fuels in an i Series stove
Solid fuel burns best with its air supply for combustion coming from
underneath the fuel. To achieve this the burn will be controlled by setting
the air control slider into the solid fuel range of settings (see section 4.2.1
on page 7). This allows you to control the flow of air underneath the grate.
Riddling the stove occasionally will also help to ensure that burnt fuel does
not prevent the supply of air from reaching the fire.
Please do not attempt to burn solid fuels in a dedicated wood burning
stove. To burn solid fuel, your stove must have a cast iron riddling grate
to withstand the higher temperatures involved. To do so could damage
your stove and will void your warranty.
1. To begin, set your stove riddling grate to its solid fuel setting as
shown below by pulling the grate control (found behind the stove door)
outwards with the operating tool:
2. Set your slider position to fully open for solid fuels by sliding it to the
right (see instructions on page 7).
3. Light as with wood (see steps 2, 3 and 4 on page 10), with kindling and
fire lighters.
4. Once flue draw has been established, after about five minutes,
carefully load the stove with fuel and close the door.
5. When the fire is well alight regulate the burning rate by setting the air
control slider along its range of motion for solid fuel burning.
