When lighting the fire, the air control should be opened fully by sliding the operating lever to the fully open position.
The fire may be lit using proprietary firelighters with kindling wood. The door should be left slightly open when
lighting. This helps allow additional air into the fire and the glass to warm up thus avoiding soot forming on the
glass. Once the fire has established then slightly larger pieces may be added and the door closed. Do not put too
many logs on until the fire has a hold as this can smother the fire. At this point split logs or whole logs may be
added. The right technique comes with a little experience, and varies with the type of fuel being burnt. See sections
on Use of Air Supply Control and Fuels below.
DO NOT USE THE APPLIANCE AS AN OPEN FIRE ALWAYS USE IT WITH THE DOOR CLOSED.
Basket Grates
Use the basket grate for burning coal or smokeless fuels, alone or mixed with wood.
If burning wood alone then it should be burnt on the cast grate and V boards.
Ash Removal
The removable ash pan simply slides out from under the cast grate for easy emptying. Do not allow ash to build up
under the
basket grate bars.
If they are allowed to become covered they will overheat and it will seriously reduce
the life of the
basket grate
. See Fitting the Basket in the Installation section of this booklet.
Lighting with Basket Grate
When lighting the fire, the air control should be opened fully by sliding the operating lever to the open position.
When using smokeless fuel place the fuel around the edge of the basket forming a circle or two circles. Leave a
well in the centre of each circle. Start the fire in this well using proprietary firelighters and or kindling wood. Then
gradually bring the fuel in over the fire lighters/kindling. See sections on Use of Air Supply Control and Fuels below.
Use of the Air Supply Control
The air control lever adjusts the primary air. The secondary air supply is pre-set to create simplicity for the user to
operate just one control. The primary and secondary air creates an air wash system drawing air across the glass.
This helps to keep the glass clean.
It reduces or increases the amount of air drawn into the fire to give the optimum burn and to carry away the smoke.
It also has an effect upon the burning rate of the fire. The degree of control exercised by the air control lever is
dependent on the draw of the chimney.
When lighting the fire, the air control should be opened fully by sliding the operating lever to the open position.
Once the fire is established, the operating lever may be slid back to a position where the air supply is as far closed
as possible while maintaining smoke or fume clearance and the glass clear. Whenever fuel is added to the fire, the
air supply lever should once again be opened fully until the fuel is well alight.
When operating the fire on a weak flue (as in some bungalows with relatively short chimneys) the optimum position
of the air supply lever may be half open or more. With flues of greater efficiency or taller chimneys, smoke
clearance may be possible with the air supply lever almost completely closed. Note that in the latter case, a small
area is left open to guarantee chimney ventilation.
Damping down over long periods (overnight) with logs, the fire should be allowed to die down before banking up
the fuel and closing the air supply to the minimum while maintaining smoke clearance. Banking up and closing the
air supply on a hot fire may cause the fire to roar away, overheat and burn out quickly. The right technique comes
with a little experience, and varies with the fuel being burnt.
