OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION!
“Never use gasoline” 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 stove only with fuelling door closed. This
heater is hot whilst in operation. Keep children,
clothing and furniture a safe distance away.

PRIMARY AIR SETTINGS
The spin valve (Part No. 33), located at the bottom
end of the door, controls the primary air supply to the
stove. For maximum heat output and burn rate
rotate the spin valve (Part No. 33) fully in an anti-
clockwise direction and for a minimum heat output
and burn rate rotate the spin valve clockwise until
fully closed. For nominal heat output the spin wheel
needs to be open between 1 – 2 turns. You will soon
learn the spin valve settings to best suit your
requirements. When burning wood logs the primary
air control should be closed and the secondary air
wash should be used to control the rate of burn.
Opening the slider less than halfway should be
enough to obtain nominal output. It is important to
use this air control when burning manufactured
smokeless fuels. The air passing over the grate will
help to cool it and will prevent premature failure.
IMPORTANT: The first few fires should be
relatively small to permit the refractory to set
properly and to season the stove.
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
300mm 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.
AIR WASH SETTINGS
The following settings should be observed for the
Air Wash Shutter (Fig. 8) when burning the specified
fuels.
Note: This part can become very hot.
Always use
the operating tool when opening and closing the Air
Wash Shutter.
OPEN
When burning house coal, timber or peat.
Using this control when burning these fuels will help
to keep the glass clean.
CLOSE
When burning anthracite and manufactured
smokeless fuels.
TERTIARY AIR / SYSTEM CONTROL
The stove has a Tertiary Air System located at the
top, under the roof baffle and connected to an air
feed ducting on the right hand side and controlled by
a push pull slider assembly, located at the bottom
right hand side.
