Before lighting the stove check with the installer that the installation work
and commissioning checks described in the installation instructions have
been carried out correctly and that the chimney has been swept clean, is
sound and free from any obstructions. As part of the stoves commission-
ing and handover the installer should demonstrate how to operate the
stove correctly.
IMPORTANT: The first few fires should be relatively small to permit the
refractory to set properly and to season the stove.
1. Before lighting the stove, ensure that any build-up in the firebox has been
removed and that the ashpan has been emptied.
2. Open the spin valve (Part No. 22) by turning it anti-clockwise.
3. Lay a few crumpled sheets of paper on the hearth and then a few small sticks,
kindling or an approved firelighter.
4. Ignite and close the door.
5. Never use inflammable liquid i.e. gasoline, petrol paraffin etc. to start or
freshen up a fire in this heater.
6. When the fire is well established add fuel to the firebox and adjust the spin
valve to the required setting. (See Re-Fuelling Section Page 6).
7. To shut the fire down, do not add fuel, make sure that the fire door is
properly closed and that the spin valve is firmly shut. Cutting off the air
supply will reduce the heat output.
