USING YOUR STOVE
THE CONTROLS
The amount of heat emitted by the stove is regulated using the following air
controls:
A) The primary air supply
is controlled using the
two lower air controls
built into the ashpan
door.
B) A second air inlet
provides a constant,
pre-heated air supply
to the combustion just
above the fire. This is
controlled using the
upper air control
mounted near the top
of the stove. This air
supply will not normally
need to be regulated
so will usually be kept
open.
C) An additional air inlet is provided in the base of the stove. This is controlled
using the knob at the bottom of the stove to provide a gentle updraught
from the back of the stove to the chimney flue.
D) The knob on the left is for riddling (moving) the grate panel to dislodge
any accumulation of loose ash into the ash pan.
WARNING: THE TEMPERATURE REACHED BY THESE ITEMS DURING
OPERATION MAY CAUSE AN INJURY TO AN END-USER. AS THESE ARE
INTENDED TO BE ADJUSTED DURING OPERATION, IT IS RECOMMENDED
THAT PROTECTIVE GLOVES ARE WORN WHEN HANDING THESE PARTS.
TYPES OF FUEL
This stove will function with wood or coal, but in general all fuel should be dry
and timber should be well seasoned so as to have a moisture content below
20%. The use of damp wood will result in more soot and tar deposits being left
in the chimney, flu and stove, and will not release heat if thermal energy is
being used to drive out moisture from the fuel.
Other fuels can be used together with wood, provided the base of the fire
remains as wood or compressed block fuels. Coal products can be added to
