Prior to closing the air slide

 ensure that the fire is 

burning briskly. This may require opening the air slide 
fully for 10-15mins before shutting down. 

 

For the optimum between clean burning, and getting 
the best in efficiency, from the fully closed position, 
open the top air slide 4-5mm. 

The top air slide can be adjusted to any position so desired 
depending on wanted heat output versus burn time. 

Reload with more wood: 

1.

 

Open air slide before opening door. 

2.

 

Rake / break up any existing coals. 

3.

 

Load the wood with the length orientated front to back. 

4.

 

Better results will be achieved by loading several 
smaller pieces of wood rather than one large piece. 

5.

 

Close door with top air slide fully open, and leave for 
minimum of 10 minutes to allow the fresh wood to 
catch. 

6.

 

After 10 or more minutes, the top air slide can be 
adjusted to the desired heat output setting. 

 

 

When using the oven ensure that the by-pass damper is in 
the closed position, and the bottom air slide in the oven door 
is closed. 

To maintain a constant oven temperature, have the fire 
burning briskly using small pieces of wood that provide plenty 
of flames. 

If the temperature in the oven gets too hot, reduce the 
amount of oxygen to the fire by partially closing the top air 
slide. Alternatively, open the bottom door slide control in the 
oven door. 

If the temperature in the oven drops below that desired, 
open the top air slide and add some more pieces of wood if 
required. 

The round hotplates in the top of the heater can be removed 
for cooking purposes allowing direct flame to a wok or 
frypan. A triangular-handled tool is provided for lifting out 
the round hotplates.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fuel Quality 

1.

 

Use wood with a moisture content of less than 20%. 
Logs should not feel moist or damp, or have moss and 
fungal growths.

 

 

2.

 

Symptoms related to wet wood: 

 

Difficulty starting and keeping a fire burning well 

 

Smoke and only small flames 

 

Dirty glass and/or fire bricks 

 

Rapid creosote build-up in the flue/chimney 

 

Low heat output 

 

Short burn times, and blue/grey smoke from the 
flue/chimney outlet 

3.

 

If on the rare occasion the wood is not ideally seasoned, 
still retaining some moisture, continue using the top air 
slide to determine the heat output and burn rate but 
also leave the bottom air slide open 3-4mm. This will 
allow some extra oxygen into the base of the fire 
allowing it to burn hotter. 

4.

 

Run the appliance at high heat output for a short period 
each day to avoid large build-up of tars and creosote 
within the appliance and flue. 

Flue Draught

 

The flue has two main functions:- 

1.

 

To remove smoke, gases and fumes from the appliance. 

2.

 

To provide a sufficient amount of draught (suction) in 
the appliance to ensure the fire keeps burning. 

Draught is caused by the rising hot air in the flue when the 
fire has been lit. 

The position, height and size of the flue can affect the 
performance of the flue draught. Refer to installation guide 
for details on flue installation. 

Factors affecting the flue draught include: 

 

Insufficient flue height 

 

Trees or other buildings nearby causing turbulence 

 

High and gusty winds 

 

Outside temperature and weather conditions 

 

Blocked flue 

For advice on the correction of persistent flue problems 
consult your supplier/installer for more detail.
