INSTRUCTIONS FOR OPERATING YOUR
KEMLAN SLOW COMBUSTION WOOD
BURNING HEATER
1.
Open the air inlet fully by sliding the air inlet control to high.
2.
Crumple at least three double pages of newspaper into loose balls and place them into the centre of the
firebox.
Cross lay at least 15 to 20 pieces of kindling on top of the paper
– if pine is used, the size should vary from
the thickness of a pencil to that of a knife handle
– if hardwood is used split it even smaller.
3. Light the paper and close the door.
Once the kindling is well alight, add a few pieces of slightly larger hardwood, split to approximately 25mm x
50mm (2” x 1”).
4. Close the door and leave the air inlet control on high. When the hardwood is well alight (usually 5
to10minutes) and coals are starting to form, larger pieces of hardwood may be added
– five or six pieces the
equivalent of 50mm x 50mm (2” x 2”) is ideal.
The object is to create a fiercely burning fire of reasonable small hardwood, which will quickly produce a
good bed of glowing coals on the floor of the firebox. This will take from 20 to 40 minutes depending on the
quality of the firewood.
5
Larger pieces of hardwood may now be added. Half fill the firebox and leave the air inlet control on high until
the wood is well alight then close the control approximately a third of its travel.
Usually about one hour after lighting, the air inlet control can be further shut down to achieve the desired
heat output.
When adding new firewood it is desirable to fully open the air inlet for approximately 10 to 15 minutes until
the new pieces are burning well, then it may be returned to its desired setting.
6.
To set the fire for overnight burn
– two-thirds fill the firebox with hardwood and fully open the air inlet.
Once the fire is burning well, the air inlet control should be shut down approximately three-quarters of its
travel. Setting the air inlet control may be varied to suit your particular requirements and the quality and size
of your firewood.
Remember wet or green wood may cause a dramatic reduction in the heat output of your heater (refer to
“Operating Hints” for more details).
7.
Have the flue inspected at least once every 12 months as it may require cleaning.
8.
Clean out excess ash from the floor of the firebox when required. Do not remove all the ash and in particular
leave any pieces of charcoal in the heater as they are good fuel.
9.
If the glass door in your heater becomes dirty, your firewood is either green, wet or both. You may be
closing the air inlet down too soon after lighting or after adding new firewood.
To clean the glass, simply use some of the white ash in the firebox. Apply it with a damp cloth in a circular
motion. Remove residue with a clean cloth or paper. Do not clean the glass when the heater is operating.
10. To clean the painted surface, simply dust with a soft duster and wipe over with a damp cotton cloth. Only
clean when the heater is cool.
IMPORTANT:
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD ANY SOLVENTS SUCH AS METHYLATED SPIRITS, PETROL, MINERAL
TURPENTINE ETC BE ALLOWED TO COME IN CONTACT WITH THE PAINTED SURFACE OF THE HEATER AS
DAMAGE TO THE FINISH WILL RESULT. IF AN ACCIDENT DOES OCCUR, SPRAY CAN PAINT IS AVAILABLE FROM
YOUR NEAREST KEMLAN DEALER.
