AIR CONTROLS
On the Ellesmere range of multifuel stoves there is
one air control controlling both primary and sec-
ondary air. When in the centre it will provide 50%
secondary and 50% primary, when pushed to the
right the percentage primary will increase and the
percentage secondary reduce. When pushed fully to
the right the air supply is 100% primary air and 0%
secondary.
When pushed to the left the percentage secondary
will increase and the percentage primary reduce.
When pushed fully to the left the air supply is 100%
secondary air and 0% primary.
When burning wood the air control should always be
in the centre or to the left of centre. On initial light
up the lever should be marginally left of the centre
and pushed fully in providing some under grate air
for the fire bed to become established.
When the fire has established the air control should
be pushed towards the left to provide for a more effi-
cient burn on wood and then pulled forwards to slow
the burn rate as desired.
If necessary to provide a little primary while burning
wood the control can be moved a little towards the
centre to provide a little primary to maintain the fire.
When burning coal the air control should always be
to the right of centre. On initial light up the lever
should be pushed slightly to the right and pushed
fully in providing under grate air fully while still pro-
viding some window - wash air to maintain a clear
viewing glass.
See Fig.6.
To engage the operating tool onto the air control,
rotate the tool as shown in Fig.8, push forward onto
air control until hole engages with pin to secure in
place for use.
RECOMMENDED FUELS
This appliance has been tested using seasoned
wood logs and smokeless coal. The appliance is
suitable for intermittent operation in smoke con-
trolled areas using wood logs and smokeless coal
approved for use in smoke controlled areas.
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 recommend log length
should be used. See Technical Data Section.
Do not use liquid fuels or any fuels with a Petro-coke
ingredient as this may cause the grate to overheat
resulting in damage.
When the fire has established the air control should
be pushed pushed fully to the right for most efficient
burning of smokeless coals and then pulled forwards
to slow the burn rate as desired. See Fig.7
