Stove Controls

Two Controls Operate the Stove

The primary air control lever, located beneath the ashlip, regulates how much heat the stove produces by controlling the amount of air received by the fire. The more air supplied, the hotter the fire. (Fig. 27)

With a travel range of about 6", the air control is closed when the lever is fully left. Maximum heat is produced when the lever is fully right. It may also be set anywhere between a "start-up" position and the high and low extremes to achieve a desired heat output. A directional arrow cast into the Acclaim's ash

lip serves as a reminder of the correct "open" and "closed" positions.

The damper handle is located on the right side of the stove and controls air flow within the stove. (Fig. 27) The damper is open when the handle is toward the rear of the stove, and the combustion gases exit directly out the flue collar. When the handle is pulled forward and locked, the damper is closed, secondary combustion occurs, and the stove operates most efficiently.

The damper must be fully open or fully closed. There are no intermediate positions for the damper handle.

Two Ways To Add Logs

And A Choice Of Fire Views

Convenient top-loading of wood through the Acclaim’s stovetop griddle supplements traditonal fireplace-style loading through the front door.

The griddle simply lifts to open.

The front door employs a rotating cam and a door latch tab to secure it. The handle points down when the door is closed.

To open the front door, pull on the handle to release the cam. To close it, push the door until the latch engages. Double-check the latch by pushing lightly on the handle. When the latch is properly secured, the door will remain closed.

For clear fire viewing, the front door features a large, self-cleaning glass panel. The front door may be opened (or even removed) and the optional spark screen clipped in place for open-fire viewing as well.
