Page 5: Lighting Your Stove
Lighting Your Stove Your new stove is fitted with an adjustable primary air intake, controlled by the slider at the base of the model, an adjustable secondary air intake positioned to above the door (which also controls the air wash system) and an adjustable tertiary air intake, controlled by the bottom right hand slider, for complete combustion of all fuels. - Page 6 Spring and Autumn syndrome Stoves utilize the effect of air current within the flue to both exhaust the products of combustion and to induce air into the stove. Normally, because the air within the house is warmer than the outside air the flue is exhausting air from the stove even when it is not operating.

Page 7: Over Firing
Over Firing Over firing any stove is dangerous and means the stove is being used beyond its capacity. If the burner or connections glow red, the appliance is being over fired and will void your warranty. Under Firing When fuel is burnt slowly it will produce higher levels of moisture, tar and creosote which will create condensation and deposits in the chimney. -
Page 8: Maintenance
We suggest that you refuel every 45 minutes to 1 hour, dependent on fuel. Wood fuel with water content greater than 20% (‘green wood’) must not be used for combustion in a HFR1201 stove. The recommended maximum dimensions of wood logs are as specified below:... -
Page 9: Troubleshooting
Sooty deposits will be removed from the glass through the application of high heat (air wash) and can also be cleaned when cool with a suitable glass cleaner. Only replace stove glass with heat resistant glass. Wet logs, pokers and slamming will damage the glass. Where a chimney has previously served an open fire, a second sweeping is recommended within a month of using your stove as the higher temperatures may dislodge previously embedded soot and tar deposits. - Page 10 Smoke Leaks from The Stove As stoves become more insulated and efficient, greater care must be taken when re-fueling to prevent smoke from entering the room when opening the door. To minimize this, we recommend only re-fueling when the fuel has burned right down and then ‘burp’ the door by opening initially just a crack. Then allow the airflow in the burning chamber to settle before completely opening the stove door and re- fueling.
- Page 11 Another risk factor to consider is the storage of logs around the stove area. If piled close to the sides of the stove, heat will build up during the prolonged use of the burner. Over time, this will cause the core of the logs to heat which could cause them to start smoldering.
