Warning Notes
Over-Firing
It is extremely important that you do NOT leave the air control in the fully open position for
extended periods or run the appliance with the door open. Leaving the air control fully
open (or running with the doors open) will lead to “over-firing”. Over-firing is caused when
too much heat is generated within the fire chamber, this will lead to warping, buckling and
general damage to the stove and its internal components. Over-firing can also be caused
by an excessive flue draft or over loading the appliance with fuel.

Fumes
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 the room and then leave the premises.
(b) Let the fire go out.
(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 flueway or chimney blockage. For your own
safety these must be kept clean at all times.
