Operating
Instructions
These stoves have been designed to burn clean and efficiently only when operated correctly following
the manufacturer’s guidance given in this manual.
WARNING
These appliances will be
HOT
when in operation and due care should be taken when
operating the controls.
Air
Controls
It is essential for the stove to have an adequate air supply for combustion and ventilation.
The primary and secondary air inlets must be kept clear from obstruction.
Primary
Air
Primary air is controlled via the two rotary air controls on the bottom of the door.
This provides a conventional air draught to the bed of the fire. The primary air intakes can be adjusted
to give the best possible results when burning different fuels.
Secondary
Air
The cast iron stove is fitted with an “air wash” system. This secondary air supply to the stove is
controlled through a slider assembly located at the top of the stove.
Note:
The
secondary
air
control
is

Multi-fuel
Grate
There are two types of multi-fuel grates for these stoves, Rotary style and grid style. For the rotary style
grate, you can operate it by dragging the stainless steel rod forward and backward. For grid style grate,
a special hook is supplied to de-ash. It is important to de-ash regularly, to ensure that the primary
airflow
is
not
impeded,
as
a
build-up
of
ash
can
damage
the
cast
iron
bed.
Ashpan
It is essential that you empty the ashpan regularly. Use the supplied tool to lift the ashpan out of the
stove.
IMPORTANT
- It is very important to empty the ashpan regularly. If the ash is allowed to build up on
the underside of the grate then burnout or distortion of the grate may be caused
