2) In the closed position the grate bars are horizontal, allowing the
combustion air to come round the sides of the grate and over the top
of it. When in the closed position ash is able to build up on the grate
as is necessary for effective wood burning.
Movement of the grate from one position to the other is effected
using the tool supplied as shown in Fig. 2. The grate is put into the
open position by moving the tool up until the handle is in the 1
o'clock position. The grate is put into the closed position by moving
the tool down until the handle is in the 5 o'clock position. To riddle
the appliance, the tool should be moved between the 1 o'clock and 3
o'clock positions several times. When burning wood the ash should
be allowed to build up and riddling should only be carried out once
or twice a week.
LIGHTING
Light the stove using dry kindling wood and paper or fire lighters. Set
the grate into the closed position. Place the paper, or fire lighters,
and kindling on the grate and cover with a few small dry logs. Open
the air control fully (see Fig. 1). Light the paper or fire lighters. The
door may be left cracked open for a few minutes to assist the
combustion and heat up the firebox more quickly. When the kindling
wood is well alight add about 3 small logs, close the doors but leave
the air control fully open. When the flames are established around
these logs, then load with logs up to the level of the air holes in the
back firebricks. Maintain the air control at maximum at this stage.
Once the fire is up to temperature the airwash system will begin to
work, so allow the fire to become hot before adjusting the air
controls to the required setting. During the lighting period, do not
leave the stove unattended.
On initial lighting, the stove may smoke and give off an odour as the
silicon paint with which the firebox is painted reacts to the heat. This
is normal and will cease after a short time, but meanwhile the room
should be kept well ventilated.
At first only light a small fire and burn it slowly for two hours to allow
any residual moisture in the bricks to evaporate.
When relighting the stove, riddle slightly and then empty the ashpan.
CONTROLLING THE FIRE
The fire is controlled by the single air control knob shown in Fig. 1.
Pull the knob out to make the fire burn faster, push it in to make the
fire burn slower.
TM This unique QuattroFlow air control* provides carefully balanced
primary, secondary, tertiary and bypass air to enable optimum
burning conditions without the need to fiddle with multiple controls.
For correct firing we recommend the use of a stove pipe
thermometer which may be purchased from your supplier or from
ourselves.
RIDDLING
When burning wood, ash should be allowed to build up and only
riddled when the ash begins to cover the slots in the rear fireplate.
The fire should be riddled with the doors shut (see Fig. 2). Place the
tool onto the riddling lever and rotate between the 1 o'clock and 3
o'clock positions several times. Too much riddling can result in
emptying unburnt fuel into the ashpan and should therefore be
avoided. After riddling, the grate should be put back into the open or
closed position as required (the tool should be in the 1 o'clock
position for open grate or in the 5 o'clock position for closed grate).
REFUELLING
Keep the firebox filled up to the level of the air holes in the back
firebrick, but do not overfill to prevent fuel from spilling over the top
of the front fire bar. Logs should be evenly distributed, filling the
firebed to give the most pleasing flame pattern. The air control must
be fully opened after refuelling until the flames are established above
the fire. It is best to refuel on to a hot bed of ash. If at this point the
fire starts to die, the doors must be cracked open until the fire is
revived in order that smoke may not be produced. If the fire has
started to die down before refuelling, then more kindling wood must
be added, the air control opened fully and the door cracked open to
re-establish the firebed
before adding larger logs.
Care should be taken especially when burning wood that fuel does
not project over the front fire bar or damage to the glass may be
caused when the doors are closed. It can also cause the glass to
