General
WARNING: hOT SURfACES, use the tool
supplied to operate this appliance. It is
recommended to use the heatproof glove
supplied when raising the dome lids to use the
hotplate.
Air for combustion within the firebox is obtained
when the appliance is being used for cooking.
The rate of burning is determined by the manually
operated spinwheel control on the ashpit door.
Any air inlet grilles must be maintained so that they are
free from blockage.
Failing to maintain your stove properly can lead to a
chimney fire. Chimney fires occur when combustible
deposits on the inner walls of the chimney ignite. These
combustible deposits, called "creosote", are a natural
byproduct of wood burning. A fire hazard exists if 1/4" of
creosote (or more) coats the inner walls of the chimney.

The firewood you use will make an important contribution to
successful operation. You will achieve the best performance
and overall efficiency by burning firewood that has been
split, stacked and air-dried undercover from rain for at least
one year. Burning improperly seasoned or "green" wood can
be a frustrating experience leading to poor performance,
smoky fires and a build-up of creosote. Do not burn saltwater
driftwood refuse, rubber tires, etc. Use of improper fuels can
cause a fire hazard and lead to a premature deterioration
of the stove components, voiding the warranty.
Burn dry wood because:
• it gives up to 25% higher efficiency;
• it produces less creosote;
• it ignites faster and smokes less;
• valuable heat is lost in the fire as it dries out wet
wood.
