OPERATION
ALWAYS OPEN THE STOVE DOOR SLOWLY AND ALWAYS USE THE GLOVE
Primary Air - controllable
Primary air is controlled via the sliding vent in the bottom of the door. This
provides an air draught through the grate to the bed of the fire. Slide right to
open and left to close. Open this when you start a fire, and to regulate solid fuels
other than wood. It should be closed when a wood fire is established for the
best efficiency but can be used to give a wood fire a boost when it is dying out.
Secondary Air - controllable
Secondary air is controlled via the sliding vent above the door, it is this ‘airwash’
that keeps a clean and uninterrupted view of the fire, and also aids good
secondary combustion of fuel; thus reducing emissions in the chimney and out
to the environment. Slide to the right to open and to the left to close. Use this
to control wood fires. It should be closed when burning solid fuels other than
wood for the best efficiency after the fire is established.
Tertiary Air – not controlled (fixed supply)
The Tertiary Air Supply is bled into the stove from the rear panel. Its function is
to ignite unburned gasses helping provide a clean burn. It is advisable to clear
these holes from time to time with a brush, especially when the stove is being
serviced or after long periods of burning.
ONLY CARRY OUT THIS AND ALL SERVICING PROCEDURES WHEN THE STOVE IS
COLD. This tertiary air supply is permanently open and allows a small amount of
air into the stove. Operation with air controls open can cause excess smoke.
These stoves must not be operated with air controls left open except as directed
in these instructions.
Lighting the Stove
It is essential that you have three or four small fires before you operate the
stove to its maximum heat output. This is to allow the paint to cure and to
