Operation

The Defiant Controls

Two controls regulate the performance of the Defiant: a primary air control supplies oxygen for the fire, and a damper directs air flow within the stove to activate and deactivate the catalytic combustor. (Fig. 27)

Symbols cast into the stove are reminders of the correct directions for using the controls. The words ‘Left’ and ‘right’ in these directions are facing the stove.

A Single Air Control Regulates

Heat Output and Burn Time

The primary air control lever, on the right side of the stove, controls the amount of incoming air for starting, maintaining, and reviving a fire.

More air entering the stove makes the fire burn hotter and faster, while less air prolongs the burn at a lower heat output level. (Fig. 28)

For the greatest air supply and maximum heat output (but the shortest burn time), move the lever toward the front of the stove. For a fire that will last longer with

less heat, move the lever toward the rear of the stove.
