LIGHTING AND CONTROLLING THE FIRE
DOOR HINGE ADJUSTMENTS
Before lighting ensure that all the internal
components are in the correct position. (See
Figure
3 above).
Open the ash door on the bottom left of the
cooking stove by inserting the operating tool (See
Figure 2 on page 3) into the handle slot and turning
it in an anti-clockwise direction.
Figure 1 on page 3 shows the primary air control
lever on the left. Push the lever left to open and
right to close. To light the cooking stove the
primary air control should be fully open.
Open the loading door by lifting the handle either
manually or using the operating tool.
Figure 1 shows the secondary air control to the left
and the damper control to the right. As with the
primary air control, the secondary air control lever
should be pushed left to open and right to close.
The damper control is open when the knob is
pulled out and closed when it is pushed in.
To light the cooking stove the secondary air control
should be fully open and the damper control pulled
out. The flue restrictor should be opened by
pointing the lever to the rear of the cooker (fig.1).
This will allow fumes to escape directly up the flue
whilst the cooking stove warms up.
Place some tightly rolled paper on top of some
crumpled paper on the base towards the back of
the cooking stove. On top of this, place some small
pieces of wood. Light the crumpled paper and
close the door.
Warning! When the cooking stove is running
the handle will become hot and the operating
tool alone should then be used.
WOOD
Once the fire becomes established add some
larger pieces of wood. As the cooking stove comes
up to temperature close the primary air control.
The burning rate of the cooking stove can now be
regulated by the rate at which fuel is added and by
adjusting the secondary air control.
SOLID FUEL
Once the fire becomes established add some solid
fuel. The rate at which solid fuel burns can be
controlled by using the primary air control and by
the amount of fuel added. The secondary air
control will affect the burning rate to a lesser
degree than the primary, but it should be left open
where possible in order to keep deposits away from
the glass window.
Whichever fuel is used, the damper control may be
closed once the fire is established depending on
oven requirements (See Operating the Oven and
Hob on page 6).

1) Remove upper & lower locking grub screws
from hinges using the 3/16” allan key provided.
2) Using the same allan key, adjust either or both
eccentric pins in each door hinge to level the door.
3) Once the door is level, lock the eccentric pins in
place using the locking grub screws.

NOTES ON WOODBURNING
Wood burns most efficiently when the air for
combustion is supplied from above the fire bed
rather than below. The air supplied above the fire
bed provides the oxygen necessary for the volatile
gases (smoke), given off by the wood as it heats, to
combust. This ensures that the gases are burnt and
used to heat the appliance instead of being wasted
up the chimney or condensing and forming tarry
deposits inside the cooking stove, in the flue or on
the loading door glass.
Running the cooking stove with the primary air
control open and the secondary air control closed
will provide oxygen for the wood to burn on the
fire bed but will not provide air for the volatile
gases above the fire bed to combust resulting in a
smoky inefficient fire.
With the above in mind the cooking stove should
ideally be run with the primary air inlet closed and
the secondary air control open whenever possible.
Another advantage of running the cooking stove
with the air wash open is that the air being drawn
into the cooking stove travels across the glass,
forming an air barrier between the glass and the
fire bed, helping to prevent smoke particles
sticking to the glass.
If the fire dies down too low, opening the primary
air control for a short period will revive it.
