When refuelling the fire, to ensure clean burning, the primary air control should be opened for a
couple of minutes so that flames are established on the newly fuelled logs. The primary air should be
closed once these flames are fully established and the logs have become blackened.
After refuelling, it is recommended that you do not leave the appliance unattended until it is certain
that the logs are burning well with a sustained flame.
The appliance works best by refuelling with two medium sized logs. Typically, the logs should burn
well for about 1 hour.
Please Note: For long periods of burning you will need to use seasoned hard wood. Longer periods of
burning may cause the door glass to blacken, but this can be cleared when you get the fire back up to
temperature and providing the secondary air control is kept slightly open the glass will then stay clear.
When loading the fire be careful not to leave logs projecting over the log retainer as you may crack the
glass when closing the door.
When the stove is use in the winter season we suggest 25mm (1”) of ash is left in the bottom when
cleaning, as a wood fire burns more efficiently on a bed of ash.
De-ashing the stove is achieved by removing the log retainer and shovelling the ash out into a non-
flammable container, or we suggest using an ash clean attachment which can be plugged into your
vacuum cleaner.
Please note:
If there is insufficient burning material in the fire bed to light a new fuel charge, excessive smoke
emission can occur. Refuelling must be carried out onto a sufficient quantity of glowing embers and
ash that the new fuel charge will ignite in a reasonable period. If there are too few embers in the fire
bed, add suitable kindling to prevent excessive smoke
The maximum amount of fuel specified in this manual should not be exceeded, overloading can cause
excess smoke.
Lighting the stove with Solid Fuel and Multi-fuel kit fitted
Lay a fire of sticks and paper, establish fire and then add the appropriate smokeless fuel, use the
primary air control as the main control. When using a mixture of wood and coal balance the primary
and secondary control to achieve the desired flame picture.
When using solid fuel in this stove you must only use fuels recommended for enclosed appliances, Oil
derivative fuels must not be used as this will shorten the life of the grate.
The Ash pan will need emptying once a day.
When burning solid fuel the stove will work at its best using the primary air control only (door Spin
wheel), it is unlikely you will need to use the secondary air control which will only need to be opened
slightly to keep the glass clear.
In the summer or when the stove is not being used for a long period of time, clear all the ash out and
leave primary and secondary air vents open to prevent condensation.
