COAL, ANTHRACITE, WOOD SYNTHETIC LOGS,
OR OTHER FUELS. “Never use gasoline” gasoline
type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid or
similar liquids to start or ‘freshen up’ a fire in this

Closed
Setting 4:
Maximum Heat
Rotate the knob to the required setting. The num-
bers are a guide only and experience will dictate the
desired setting for comfort. The numbers indicate
the degree of opening of the control flap from 0-4
(closed to maximum). Setting 4 will provide the most
heat from the appliance. The zero position may not
always be in the 12 o’clock position but the knob will
only rotate once between fully open and fully closed.
(See Fig.8)
LOW / SLUMBER BURN
To achieve an overnight or a low burn rate, close the
air wash slider fully by sliding the lever left using the
ashpan tool and rotate the primary air control knob
in an anticlockwise direction until the lowest burning
rate is found without the fire going out. The exact
setting will be governed by individual requirements.
(See Figs 8 & 9)
RECOMMENDED FUELS
This appliance has been tested using seasoned
wood logs and manufactured briquetted smokeless
fuel (Ancit) for closed appliances, sized between
20g and 140g. Other fuels are commercially avail-
able and may give similar results. Wood logs up to
400mm long are suitable. All fuels should be stored
under cover and kept as dry as possible prior to use.
Do not use fuels with a coke ingredient as this may
cause the grate to overheat, causing damage.
Reduced outputs will result when fuels of lower
calorific values are used. Never use gasoline or
gasoline type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter
fluid or similar liquids to start or freshen up a fire in
this heater. Keep all such liquid well away from the
heater at all times. Operate the stove only with the
fuelling door closed except for re-fuelling.
OPEN
When burning coal, timber or peat.
CLOSE
When burning anthracite and
smokeless fuels.
WARNING:
DO NOT OBSTRUCT PRIMARY
AIR SUPPLY TO THE AIR DUCT AT THE BACK
OF THE STOVE.
WARNING:
THE AIR SLIDER IS HOT WHILE
STOVE IS IN USE - USE TOOL TO OPERATE.
WARNING NOTE
Properly installed, operated and maintained this
stove will not emit fumes into the dwelling.
Occasional fumes from de ashing and re fuelling
may occur. However, persistent fume emission is
potentially dangerous and must not be tolerated. If
fume emission does persist, then the following
immediate action should be taken:
(a) Open doors and windows to ventilate room
(b) Let the fire out or eject and safely dispose of
fuel from the appliance
(c) Check for flue or chimney blockage and clean if
required
(d) Do not attempt to relight the fire until the cause
of the fume emission has been identified and
corrected. If necessary seek expert advice.
The most common cause of fume emission is flue-
way or chimney blockage. For your own safety
these must be kept clean at all times.
Never use an aerosol spray can near the stove
when it is alight as there is a risk of an explosion or
“flare up”.
