4.Running The appliance

4.1Burning Wood:

•Close the Primary air control and use the Airwash to control the burn rate when appliance is at operating temperature, Diagram 4

Air Wash: Adjust

•Wood burns best on a bed of ash

•Rake the embers evenly over the fire bed and open the

Airwash control fully for a few minutes before re-fuelling to establish a glowing bed of coals

•Stack the logs in an open arrangement, Diagram 5

the fire.

Compact stacking will make the wood burn slower as wood can only reach the outside of the fire. This will cause the fire to smoulder and produce smoke.

4.2Experience establishes settings to suit personal preferences.

4.3Do not burn large amounts of fuel with the Airwash con- trol closed for long periods of time. This reduces the glass cleaning effect and causes tars and creosotes to build-up in the appliance and flue system and will produce excessive amounts of smoke.

4.4When in use, burning the appliance at high output for a short period also reduces tars and creosote.

When running the appliance:

• Burn new logs at high output for a few minutes before adjusting the Airwash control.

Refuel little and often for clean, efficient burning.

A bright and clean firebox indicates the appliance is burning well.

• Add a small amount of kindling and open the air controls if the firebed is low when the appliance is refuelled

This helps re-establish the fire. Do not close the air controls until the fire is burning well.

4.5Do not load fuel above the log guard and the secondary combustion inlets at the back of the firebox.
