Now that your Stanley solid fuel cooker is installed and no doubt you are looking forward to many comforts it
will provide, we would like to give you some tips on how to get the best results from your cooker.
1.
We would like if you could take some time to read the operating instructions/hints, which we are
confident, will be of great benefit to you.
2.
Do not burn fuel with a high moisture content, such as a damp peat or unseasoned timber. This
will only result in a build up of tar in the cooker and in the chimney.
Anthracite 25-50mm
House Coal 25-75mm
Timber - Firebox size
Peat Briquettes
Bog Peat
3.
Clean the flue-ways of the cooker every week and ensure that there are no blockages. Please
refer to manual for instructions.
4.
Before loading fresh fuel into the firebox, riddle fully to remove all ashes this will allow better and
cleaner burning. See directions in manual.
5.
Never allow a build up of ashes in the ash pan, as this will cause the grate to burn out prema-
turely.
6.
Avoid slow burning of damp or unseasoned fuel as this will result in tarring flue ways and chim-
ney i.e. peat or timber.
7.
Allow adequate air ventilation to ensure plenty of air for combustion.
8.
Do not burn rubbish/household plastic.
9.
Do not leave ash-door open for long periods as this will over heat the unit causing unnecessary
damage.
10.
Clean the chimney at least twice a year.
11.
When burning peat or timber, it will be helpful to burn a few fires of "Anthracite" which will help
to dry and burn off tar and soot deposits. This will be helpful before cleaning.
12.
Burning soft fuels such as timber and peat will stain the glass. Regular cleaning will prevent per-
manent staining.
13.
Keep all combustible materials a safe distance away from unit, please consult manual for clear-
ance to combustible table.
14.
For safety reasons never leave children unaccompained while stove/cooker is in use.
15.
Avoid contact with unit when in use as cooker/stove reaches very high operating temperatures.
