the operation the stove handle may become hot so always wear the glove provided.
Secondary Air Control
Tertiary Air Holes
Primary Air Control
2.4.1 Primary Air - controllable
Primary air is controlled via the sliding vent in the bottom of the door. This provides an
air draught through the grate to the bed of the fire. Slide right to open and left to close.
Open this when you start a fire, and to regulate solid fuels other than wood. It should be
closed when a wood fire is established for the best efficiency but can be used to give a
wood fire a boost when it is dying out.
2.4.2 Secondary Air - controllable
Secondary air is controlled via the sliding vent above the door, it is this 'airwash' that keeps
a clean and uninterrupted view of the fire, and also aids good secondary combustion of
fuel; thus reducing emissions in the chimney and out to the environment. Slide to the right
to open and to the left to close. Use this to control wood fires. It should be closed when
burning solid fuels other than wood for the best efficiency after the fire is established.
