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
Operation
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.
