C) The air intake needs to be between 25% - 50% open to obtain the best result for burning wood. Warning! – This Appliance will be hot when in operation and due care should be taken. We advise that suitable gloves, or the operating tool is used when operating the air control, and when opening the door Primary Air - The primary air provides a conventional air draught to the bed of the fire.
Recommended Fuels Hunter Stoves Group recommend that only wood logs with a moisture content of less than 20% should be burnt on this appliance. Burning wet or unseasoned wood will create excess smoke emissions, tar deposits in the stove and chimney and will not produce a satisfactory heat output.

Gaskets/Tape The glass gasket will have to be replaced when a new piece of glass is fitted as the gaskets become brittle after firing the stove as will the self-adhesive tape. Over time you may also find that the gasket changes colour. This is due to a reduction in the pigment used in the manufacture of the product and no cause for concern.

Rope Check the rope around the door. If rope is becoming detached, use rope glue to reattach it. If the rope is in a poor condition, a replacement rope kit may be ordered from the Hunter Stoves Group spares range. Chimney and Flue Ways It is important that the chimney, flue ways and any connecting flue pipe are swept regularly.
