    Primary Air is manually regulated by a sliding valve located in the load door under the glass pane which Door Latch remains slightly open. The valve position controls the volume of primary air entering the firebox and thereby affects fire intensity, heat output and burn time.

Right = Full Open, Maximum Fire Secondary air is automatically regulated to promote Fig. 5.3. Stove-top Thermometer locations combustion of volatile gas that would otherwise be exhausted to the atmosphere unburned. The secondary air inlet is located at the back of the stove where a temperature-sensitive bimetal coil continuously varies the volume of air introduced to fire. This air is preheated as it passes over the back and top of the firebox, directed to the secondary combustion baffle and delivered to the catalytic combustor. Fig. 5.1. F 602 V3 Combustion air flow.

Remove magnet from current orientation magnet attaching to the cast iron side plate as shown in figure 5.5. Seated within the right side directly behind the catalytic element, the Combustor Monitor accurately responds to combustion activity. Secondary combustion takes place at temperatures between 500°F (260°C) and 1200°F (260°C - 649°C). Temperatures can reach as high as 1400°F to 1500°F (760°C -816°C). The primary air valve should remain at the fully open Incorrect setting, (to the Right), at least until the monitor registers Orientation 500°F (260°C). Maintain that temperature for 15-20 minutes before adjusting the primary air lever to Medium Low - Medium High settings. The optimum temperature range for most efficient combustion is between 500°F and 800° Fig. 5.7. Orient magnet (260°C -371°C). Chimney draft should be in the .05 - 1.0 w.c. range. The so-called “sweet spot” combustion zone is best maintained at those temperatures. However it is not uncommon for combustion temperatures to reach over 1,400°F (760°C).
