Refueling
The rebox should be lled to the recommended level at
the middle of the rebox door opening.
A correctly fueled re will last a minimum of 2 hours
burning wood when maintaining the maximum rated
output of the stove with intermittent cooking periods
included. Once refueling has been completed, close the
rebox door immediately and open only for refueling
charges.
Restriction Plates
Your unit comes supplied with three rectangular air
restriction plates on the bottomgrate. These should
always be in place during operation to control the
amount of air into the rebox. They should be removed
to clean the bottomgrate and to use the riddling rod on
the left hand side of the unit but must be replaced after
cleaning.
De-Ashing
NOTE: Should the bottomgrate de-ashing fail to
clear an accumulation of ash and debris, it may be
removed as described in the section on removal of
melted ash.
Open the ashpit door to give access to the ashpan which
must be emptied regularly (See Fig. 9).
In winter, this may be as much as three times daily
depending on weather severity.
NOTE: Do not allow ash to accumulate in the ash
pan until it touches the underside of the bottom
grate bars or they will quickly burn out.
Ensure the ashpan is in place otherwise the ashpit
door may not close and lock completely.
Cleaning of Bottom Grate
Due to an accumulation of ash and other material, it may
not be possible to pass through the grate. Allow the re
to burn out and then open the ashpit door. Lift off the
cleaning door (See Fig. 10) and insert a hooked poker to
draw out any offending accumulation. Replace cleaning
door after use.
The amount of accumlated debris is dependent on the
heating load and should be checked weekly for any
build-up. Excessive build-up will lead to a fall in heating
output and reduction in life of the bottomgrate.
Use of the Hot Plate
The best results can be obtained by using machined
base cookware. The hottest part of the hot plate is
immediately above the re, the other end being for
simmering.
The circular plug in the hotplate (near the ue chamber
end) is for ue cleaning and must not be removed for
cooking.
Keep the hotplate clean with a wire brush.
Continuous use of the oven with the hotplate covers
down may result in discolouration of the hotplate and the
chrome covers.
NOTE: To obtain optimum hotplate performance for fast
boiling or hotplate cooking, fuel the rebox to the bottom
edge of the rebox opening to a horizontal level.
WARNING: The stove top plate surface around the
hotplate will become hot under use and care must be
observed. Please refer to the installation instructions on
page 7 regarding minimum clearances to combustible
surfaces and materials.
