PRIMARY AIR CONTROL SPIN VALVE
When burning manufactured smokeless fuels, the
spin valve located near the bottom of the door, con-
trols the primary air supply to the stove. For maxi-
mum heat output and burn rate rotate the spin valve
fully in an anti-clockwise direction. For a minimum
burn rate rotate the spin valve fully in a clockwise
direction until fully closed. For nominal heat output
the spin wheel will need to be open about 2 turns
depending on the draught conditions of the chimney.
You will soon learn the spin valve settings to best
suit your requirements.

SECONDARY AIR CONTROL - SLIDER
When burning wood, push the secondary air slider
situated on the left hand side of the door to the bot-
tom of the slot. The air control is a slider operation,
push the slider to the top of the slot for fully closed
and to the bottom for fully open.
The control can be gradually moved between fully
open and fully closed for the desired setting. Fully
open will be the hottest setting, as this will provide
the maximum air to the fire and will help to clean the
glass even after it has become sooty. This control
can be used in conjunction with the spin valve but
generally the fire will perform best if the slider is
used when burning wood and the spin valve is used
when burning manufactured smokeless fuels. These
controls are hot when the appliance is in use. Use
the glove provided to operate these controls when
they are hot.

RECOMMENDED FUELS
This appliance has been tested using seasoned
wood logs and manufactured smokeless fuels.
Other fuels are commercially available and may give
similar results. Do not use fuels with a Petro-coke
ingredient as this may cause the grate to overheat,
causing damage. Reduced outputs will result when
fuels of lower calorific value are used. All fuels
should be stored under cover and kept as dry as
possible prior to use.
RE-FUELLING
When re-fuelling with manufactured smokeless fuel
riddle the fire by connecting the grate operating tool
onto the rocker connection located at the bottom
front of the stove. Then gently pull and push the
rocker arm until all dead ash has fallen through into
the ashpan. Before opening the door, open the spin
valve by turning it anti-clockwise, as this will help to
eliminate any smoke or fly ash resident in the com-
bustion chamber. Add fuel to fire, taking care not to
overfill higher than the front firebars. Close fire door
and re-set spin valve to required setting. Do not
operate this appliance with the fire door open. (See
Fig.16)
When burning wood the requirement to riddle the
fire is much less. Do not riddle the fire with the spin-
wheel open but fully open the secondary air control
instead. Remember to reset the controls after refu-
elling.
