Adjusting the Burn Rate

Use the air control slider to control the burn rate of the stove. See the illustration below for details.

Use the air control to change the burn rate.

Low Burn

High Burn

(air control closed)

(air control open)

Approximate Air Control Settings:

Overnight Burn

Fully out to 9/32" open

Medium Burn

9/32" to 5/16" open

Medium High Burn

5/16" to 7/16" open

The air control becomes hot during operation - use gloves or a tool to prevent burns.

The air control may take several minutes to influence the burn rate. When making adjustments, you may wish to let the stove burn for 10 minutes to gauge performance.

Ash Removal

Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible floor or on the ground, away from all combustible

ASHES materials, pending final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly

cooled.
