is a knob
located on the bottom door. Sliding the knob to the left pro-
vides less air for a smaller re. Sliding the knob to the right
provides more air for a larger re. When burning wood, this
knob should be all the way to the left, closed.
are located
on each side as shown at left and on page 6. Both controls
should be adjusted equally. Air from these controls also pro-
vides a curtain of air across the glass to keep it clean. Move
the controls down for less heat and up for more heat. When
burning coal these controls should be in the down position.
Coal must have air coming up through the coal bed in order
to burn. Some air over the top of the coal helps burn gases. A
small amount of air enters the top of the coal re when the
wood controls are in the down position.
Wood burns with top or bottom air; however, top air com-
ing down across the glass to form an air curtain works best
and keeps the glass clean.
This is why it is recommended that the coal control be
positioned to the for wood burning.
Crumple up six to eight sheets of news paper and place
in the rebox. Next place pieces of dry wood 3/4 inch maxi-
mum diameter on top of the paper, Next place several 1"-2"
split pieces of dry wood on top, followed by a few 2"-3" split
pieces. Set the wood air controls at the maximum heat output
setting, all the way up. Place the knob on the bottom door to
the left. These settings will allow the glass to stay clean as
you build your re. The coal knob may be moved to the right
to speed the ignition process but the glass may get dirty.
Ignite the paper and allow the re to burn until a good
charcoal bed, 2"- 3" (50 mm - 80 mm) is formed; (You may
need to leave the ash door open a crack to get the blaze going
properly, but never leave the stove unattended with a door
open.) Add more wood to create a deeper charcoal base 3"
to 4".
Once the charcoal bed is established you may add a full
load of dry wood. After adding the fuel, leave air setting at
maximum for 5 to 15 minutes. Then, adjust the air controls
and blower speed for the desired heat output.
