When burning wood the primary air control should
be closed or open a minimal amount to maintain the
fire.

20g and 140g. Other fuels are commercially avail-
able and may give similar results. Wood logs up to
420mm long are suitable. All fuels should be stored
under cover and kept as dry as possible prior to use.
Do not use fuels with a Petro-coke ingredient as this
may cause the grate to overheat, causing damage.
Reduced outputs will result when fuels of lower
calorific values are used. Never use gasoline or
gasoline type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter
fluid or similar liquids to start or freshen up a fire in
this heater. Keep all such liquid well away from the
heater at all times. The appliance should not be
used as an incinerator. Operate the stove only with
the fuelling door closed except for re-fuelling.
This stove has obtained HETAS approval for burning
natural and manufactured smokeless fuels only as
detailed in recommended fuels below. HETAS
Approval does not cover the use of other fuels either
alone or mixed with the recommended fuels listed,
nor does it cover instructions for the use of other
fuels.
DOOR HANDLE OPERATION
The stove is supplied with a detachable door handle.
To open the door, insert the silver end of the handle
into the door latch on the fire door, turn the handle
clockwise and pull the door towards you. To close
the door, insert the handle into the door latch as
before, push the door closed, turn the handle anti-
clockwise to engage the door catch and remove the
door handle.
Alternatively the door handle supplied can be fixed
in place. To fix the door handle remove the spigot
from the end and thread the handle directly into the
door latch.
The glove provided should be used to open/close
the door when the stove is hot.
RE-FUELLING
When refuelling with manufactured smokeless fuel
riddle the fire by connecting the grate operating tool
onto the rocker connection located at the bottom
front of the stove. Then gently pull and push the
rocker arm until all dead ash has fallen through into
the ashpan. Before opening the door, open the pri-
mary air by turning the knob clockwise, as this will
help to eliminate any smoke or fly ash resident in the
combustion chamber. Add fuel to fire, taking care
not to overfill higher than the front firebars. Close

NOTE:-
A boiler model stove will provide heat into the boil-
er and also to the room in which it is situated. The
heat to room is in a fixed relationship with the heat
to the boiler.
The heat to the boiler is controlled by the air supply
to the stove which is required to have a thermosta-
tic damper for safety reasons. When the tempera-
ture of the water in the boiler exceeds 55 ˚C the
thermostatic damper will begin to shut off the air
supply, should the water temperature continue to
rise the thermostatic damper will continue to close
and if the water temperature reaches 85 ˚C the
thermostatic damper closes the primary air supply
fully.
In the event where a stove is fitted to a central heat-
ing system which is undersized in relation to the
nominal heat output to boiler then the stove will
operate satisfactorily but will be unable to achieve
the nominal heat output to room as the thermostat-
ic damper will shut off the air supply to prevent an
overheat situation in the boiler.
For example:- Where a stove provides 2kW to the
room and 8kW to the boiler and if the thermostatic
damper shuts down the air supply to provide 4kW to
the boiler, then the heat to room will decrease pro-
portionally to 1kW.
RECOMMENDED FUELS
All fuels should be stored under cover and kept
as dry as possible prior to use.
