Operational Position of air sliders during operation and in adverse conditions
You need to become familiar with your stove in order to be able to regulate the air controls (sliders) correctly, as
outside factors suchas the quality and height of your chimney, the quality of your fuel and the external weather
conditions can alter the stoves operational settings and performance.
Very damp weather can affect the draw of the stove and therefor more secondaryair may be needed to adjust.
Very still cold clear days induce more draught and the setting for secondaryair may be less than nominal settings.
Suchaccommodationswill become normal once you are familiar with your stove.
It is easy to see whether the stove is functioning correctly; incomplete combustion will be shown by
1) Theinside of the fire chamber firebricks having a black dusty build up,
2) A build-up of hard shiny soot on the inside of the glass
3) Smoking chimney
To prevent sooting of the chamber and glass introduce more secondary air, also check that your wood is dry.

Door operation
When opening the door of your Westfire stove always wear the glove that is provided to protect your hand from
possible heat. The handle pulls out right away from the fire. When shutting the door push the door closed and push
the handle until the handle firmly closes.
WOOD FUEL
IMPORTANT:Neveruse toxic wood such as chipboard, impregnated or painted wood.
Goodquality wood is the most important factor in your stove working efficiently and cleanly. Always usedry
firewood. Thedrynessof the firewood plays an important role since the use of wet wood results in poor fuel
economy and may causea tarry sooty film on the internals of the stove.
Newly cut wood contains 60-70% water, making it totally unsuitable for use as firewood.
Newly cut wood should be stacked and air dried under cover for two years before being used asfirewood.

Overnight burning
Westfire stovesare wood stoves, wood burns more efficiently and cleanly if is burnt hotter. Westfire do not
recommend that their stoves are burnt overnight for this reason.
As a night time regime we recommendthat the fire is loaded when hot and burnt for five minutes with the
secondaryair valve fully open until the new wood has taken and is burning, then close the secondaryair valve to
its operational position.
Onreturning to the stove in the morning the fire will have burn out, reload with some paper or firelighter and some
kindling and open all the values fully open and the stove will relight quickly. Bewareas the ash bed will have hot
embers.
Useof operating tools
Always usethe operating tools provided when handling parts likely to be hot when the stove is in use.
Maintenance
UNIQ36/ WF36Pedestal and UNIQ37/ WF37Pedestal wood stoves needs to have the ash removed from the stove
at regular intervals. Make sure the stove is completely cold before cleaning out ash (embers can remain hot for over
24 hours). To clean the outside of the stove use a dry cloth.
