5.0 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
5.1 FUELS
HETAS Ltd. approval covers the burning of the following smokeless fuels in this
range cooker:

Ancit (smokeless coal)

Anthracite Large Nuts.

Centurion.

Cosycoke.

Maxibrite.

Phurnacite.

Sunbrite Doubles.

Welsh Dry Steam Coal (large nuts).
The above fuels are all suitable for smoke control areas.
NOTE: Petroleum coke should never be used on this appliance. If used, it will
invalidate the guarantee.
Wood can be used in this appliance.
The two main factors to be considered when burning wood are the moisture content
and the density.
Moisture in wood will have an effect on the CV (amount of heat per unit volume), as
any moisture in the wood has to be boiled away before the wood will burn.
It can also create smoke and tars which could be corrosive and increase the risk of a
chimney fire.
Well-seasoned logs can have approximately twice the CV of unseasoned green logs.
Hard wood logs are denser than soft wood logs and tend to burn for a longer period of
time. Air dried wood should be seasoned for at least 12 months, before burning.
Wood that has been contaminated or treated with varnish, paint or other coatings and
preservatives should not be used. Not only does it release noxious chemicals into the
air, but it can also contribute to the amount of tar and deposits building up in your
chimney.
5.2 LIGHTING AND CONTROLLING THE FIRE
To light a fire place firelighters, kindling and smokeless coal, in this order, into the
firebox, as per standard practice and ignite. Ensure the primary damper is fully
opened. Once ignited close the door to a suitable setting (please refer to wood and
smokeless fuel settings on the next page). Fuel must be added to the firebox as
required. This is dependent on the fuel type being used and also the system it is
