Operating Your
FRONT DOOR HANDLE: A fixed handle is provided to
operate the front loading door. The 10 o'clock position is
open; the 7 o'clock position is closed. Pull on the door
handle to make sure it is properly latched.
PRIMARY AIR CONTROL: This feature is located on the
lower left side of the stove, under the removable ash lip.
The primary air control allows you to regulate the amount
of air entering the firebox. Generally, the more air
allowed into the firebox, the faster and hotter the rate of
burn; conversely, less air creates a slower burn. Push the
lever to the left to open the primary air control; push the
lever to the right to close the primary air control.
ASH PAN: The ash pan access door is located under the
ash lip. The ash pan collects burned ash from a fire and
allows you to conveniently remove the ash from your
wood stove. To open it, rotate the handle clock-wise. The
firebox should be cleaned of ashes as required by sliding
the ash grate open, sifting the ashes across the grate into
the ash pan, then returning the grate to its closed position.
The ash pan is easy to remove and has a handle for
convenient disposal of ashes. Once the ashes have been
removed, close the ash pan access door and rotate the
handle counter-clock-wise to latch.
