OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Fig. 1 Operating the multi grate
RIDDLING
When burning wood, ash should be allowed to build up and only
riddled when the ash begins to cover the rear fireplate. The fire
should be riddled with the door shut (see Fig.2). Place the operating
tool onto the riddling lever and rotate between the open and closed
positions several times. Too much riddling can result in emptying
unburnt fuel into the ashpan and should therefore be avoided. After
riddling, the grate should be put back into the closed position for
burning wood.

LIGHTING
On initial lighting, the stove may smoke and give off an odour as the
silicon paint with which the firebox is painted reacts to the heat. This
is normal and will cease after a short time, but meanwhile the room
should be kept well ventilated.
At first only light a small fire and burn it slowly for two hours to allow
any residual moisture in the chimney to evaporate.
Light the stove using dry kindling wood and paper or fire lighters.
Put the paper, or fire lighters, and kindling in the firebox and cover
with a few small dry logs. Open the air control fully (see Fig. 3).
Light the paper or fire lighters. The door may be left cracked open
for a few minutes to assist the combustion and heat up the firebox
more quickly. When the kindling wood is well alight add a few more
small logs, close the door but leave the air control fully open. When
the flames are established around these logs, load the stove with the
required fuel load. Maintain the air control at maximum at this stage.
Once the fire is up to temperature the airwash system will begin to
work, so allow the fire to become hot before adjusting the air control
to the required setting. During the lighting period, do not leave the
stove unattended. Do not leave the door open except as directed
above to avoid excessive smoke.
When relighting the stove, leave the ash on the base if burning
wood, unless it is becoming too deep, in which case some of it may
be removed.
CONTROLLING THE FIRE
The rate of burning and hence the output is controlled by the air
control (see Fig.3)
Fig. 3 Stove controls
Open the air control fully (boost position) when lighting or when
rapid burning is required. It should not be left fully open for long
periods as this can cause over-firing or excessive smoke production.
For high output move the air control to the ‘click position’ or for low
