3 – Operating Instructions
Before you begin using your cooker, make sure you are fully aware of how the cooker functions, as
well as the maintenance requirements of the cooker you have purchased.
With each cooker a set of useful tools is included, including a hook to remove the hob rings, and to
use as a fire poker, and a scraper for cleaning out the Ashtray chamber, and for scraping the soot out
of the flue ways, particularly through the cleaning door, located just below the oven, behind the
oven door.
Before lighting the cooker, check that the flue way is perfectly clean, and free of packaging material.
When you are starting up the cooker, lighting
the cooker from cold, open the primary air
valve (below fire door) by pushing it fully
across to the right, and the direct-flue valve,
which is above the oven door, should be
pulled outwards all the way out.
Once the fire is burning well and you have a good bed of glowing coals (say 75 or 100mm if getting
the oven hot) and the new fuel is well lit, push the air control lever all the way to the left (see below)
and close the direct-flue damper valve (above the oven door) by pushing the handle fully back into
its normal position.
