CAUTION HOT! Always use the glove provided to con-
trol hot handles when in use.
Your ApplePie stove uses a single lever to control the
burning process, however this lever balances the air supply
from three different air systems within the stove.
Figure 1.1
shows this control located under the door. The
control works by varying the amount of air which can enter
the fire box. The more air that can enter the firebox the
faster the fuel will burn.
The single vent control controls three types of air
introduction into the firebox:
1) The Primary air is introduced via a few small holes
which are visible on the back wall of the stove, just above
the height of the ashpan/burn tray. This air is useful for
starting the fire, when reloading new logs and in the case
of a weaker chimney draught. The Primary air is introduced
into the firebox when the control lever is in the ‘BOOST’
position, and a few degrees to the left and right of this
‘BOOST’ position. At all other positions of the lever arm,
the Primary air is closed. When the chimney draught is
sufficient and the fire is established, the control lever
should be moved away from the ‘BOOST’ position.
2) The ‘Secondary’ air system allows air to enter the fire
box through a channel plate at the top of the stove window.
This air then flushes down the inside of the glass, keeping
a blanket of air between the glass and the fire, therefore
helping to keep the glass clean.
Some of this air also reaches down to the bottom of the
firebed, providing fresh air to enable the wood to burn.

The Secondary air is at maximum position when the lever
is between the ‘BOOST’ position and when pushed fully to
the right.
It is at its lowest setting when the lever is pushed fully to
the left.
3) The ‘Tertiary air’ enters the firebox via a series of
horizontal holes which can be seen as you look into the
stove above the rear wall.
These inlets allow fresh air to reach the upper parts of the
firebox, allowing rising smoke and gases to re-ignite, and
burn thoroughly and cleanly before escaping out into the
flue.
The tertiary air is at maximum position when the lever is
between the ‘BOOST’ position and when pushed fully to
the right.
It is at its lowest setting when the lever is pushed fully to
the left.
(To comply with the Clean Air Regulations and to ensure
efficient, clean burning, the control lever is set to always
allow a minimum flow of Secondary and Tertiary air so that
the firebox cannot be starved of fresh air.)
Your ApplePie stove is fitted with a stainless steel handle
for operation of the door. In addition your stove is supplied
with a separate hardwood version - you should decide
which you prefer. The metal handle will got hot during use
and should be operated using the heat resistant glove
provided. Each handle type simply unscrews from the
upper handle mechanism. Once chosen, the handle is
designed to remain in place ie. it is NOT designed to be a
regularly removable handle. See
