5.
Slide the glass tube back through the support ring (if you removed it completely) and lower
carefully into the base. Twisting the glass tube slightly will help slide into the heat resistant fabric.
The glass tube sits ontop of part of the stove, so you will feel when it has gone in and seated.
There is no rush to do this, the glass will not suddenly get hot at this point, so take your time to
carefully assemble.
6.
Leave the Firestorm to get going. Usually, it will be leaping up
toward the top of the tube in 15-20 minutes, burning for about
an hour before going out, giving you a dazzling spectacle as the
flame spins up the glass tube.
Important: On very rare occasions the Firestorm may go out
shortly after lighting and produce smoke. If this happens, quickly
lift the glass tube from the Firestorm and relight it. Heat resistant
gloves may be necessary to remove the glass tube.
7.
Extend the burn time by adding more pellets
before the feed tube is empty.
Important: Make sure the heater has at least a quarter of a tube
of pellets left before refilling. Refilling beyond this point can
choke the fire and cause it to smoke rather than flame. Do not
attempt to relight the Firestorm at this stage as the glass is too
hot to remove.
If you notice the flame getting smaller this is most likely due to
ash build-up on the grate, this can easily be removed by holding
the Firestorm near the lid and rocking it. Poking the grate
through the air intake at the back can also help but may not be
necessary.
Notes
As the Firestorm gets going you may notice a humming noise coming from the tube, this is
normal. This will subside once the Firestorm reaches full burn.
Always let the Firestorm cool down completely before disassembly, moving or cleaning.
Never spray water onto the hot tube or use if heavy rainfall is expected. The sudden change in
temperature may cause the glass to break. Light rainfall will not damage the glass.
