can be used in conjunction with the spin valve but
generally the fire will perform best if the slider is
used when burning wood and the spin valve is used
when burning manufactured smokeless fuels. These
controls are hot when the appliance is in use. Use
the glove provided to operate air controls and
door handle when they are hot.

PRIMARY AIR CONTROL SPIN VALVE

When burning manufactured smokeless fuels, the
spin valve located near the bottom of the door, con-
trols the primary air supply to the stove. For maxi-
mum heat output and burn rate rotate the spin valve
fully in an anti-clockwise direction. For a minimum
burn rate rotate the spin valve fully in a clockwise
direction until fully closed. For nominal heat output
the spin wheel will need to be open about 2 turns
depending on the draught conditions of the chimney.
You will soon learn the spin valve settings to best
suit your requirements.

available and may give similar results. Do not use
fuels with a Petro-coke ingredient as this may cause
the grate to overheat, causing damage. Reduced
outputs will result when fuels of lower calorific value
are used. All fuels should be stored under cover and
kept as dry as possible prior to use.

dOOR HANdLE OPERATION

The stove is supplied with a detachable door handle.
To open the door, insert the silver end of the handle
into the door latch on the fire door, turn the handle
clockwise and pull the door towards you. To close
the door, insert the handle into the door latch as
before, push the door closed, turn the handle anti-
clockwise to engage the door catch and remove the
door handle.

RE-FUELLING
When refuelling with manufactured smokeless fuel
riddle the fire by connecting the grate operating tool
onto the rocker connection located at the bottom
front of the stove, the grate must be in the open posi-
tion before riddling. Then gently pull and push the
rocker arm until all dead ash has fallen through into
the ashpan. Before opening the door, open the spin
valve by turning it anti-clockwise, as this will help to
eliminate any smoke or fly ash resident in the com-

bustion chamber. Add fuel to fire, taking care not to
overfill higher than the front firebars. Close fire door
and re-set spin valve to required setting. Do not
operate this appliance with the fire door open. (See
Fig.20)
When burning wood the requirement to riddle the
fire is much less. Do not riddle the fire with the spin-
wheel open but fully open the secondary air control
instead. Remember to reset the controls after refu-
elling.
