To light your stove
1. Place a few smaller pieces of dry wood (kindling) in the stove on top of the non toxic firelighters.
2. Fully pull open the air slider (secondary air) and the air slider on ash pan (Primary air) it maybe necessary pull
the ash pan drawer open 1cm as well)
3. Light the firelighters close the door.
4. Once the fire has caught, add two pieces of wood measuring approx 20cm with a combined weight of approx
1.3kg and close the door.
5. After approximately 1 minutes when the fire is burning brightly shut the air control on the ash pan.
6. After approximately another 3 minutes close the secondary air slider by 55%, for the stove to burn cleanly
plenty of secondary air is needed, do not be tempted to shut the fire down too early as this may cause
smoke. At nominal heat output, expect to refuel your stove approximately once every 50 min.
WF 26, WF 27 and WF 28 are all equipped with a control valve for secondary air designed to ensure a plentiful
supply of oxygen during firing. When lit, the stove will get very hot and due care must therefore be exercised.
Please use a glove when operating levers and dampers.
RE-FUELING
To re-fuel in the cleanest way. Before refuelling open secondary air slider fully, also open primary air slider fully (on
ash pan) and leave for 5 minutes. Open door gently, add two pieces of wood measuring approx 20cm with a com-
bined weight of approx 1.3kg and close the door. Leave the air sliders open for 10 minutes to allow the fire to reach
a good temperature. Then close primary air slider (on ash pan) and slide secondary air value to 45% open.
In the event of a chimney fire: Close the air damper and the stove door, and call 999 or your local fire department.
If your stove is over heating close all dampers and door must be closed, and left until the stove has return to
nominal temperatures’.
Basic Positions of air sliders during Operation
You will need to become familiar with your stove in order to be able to regulate the secondary air intake correctly,
as factors such as the quality and height of your chimney, the quality of your fuel and the external conditions
play a large role in your stove performance. It is easy to see whether the stove is functioning correctly; however
incomplete combustion may lead to a build-up of hard, shiny soot on the inside of your stove and glass.
To prevent sooting of the chamber and glass introduce secondary air, also check that your wood is dry.
It is important to check the draft conditions before lighting your stove. This may be done, for instance, by crum-
pling a piece of newspaper, placing it in the combustion chamber and lighting it. The draft conditions are good if
the smoke is drawn away through the chimney.
Tertiary air ports: six ports at the rear of the combus-
tion chamber provide fresh preheated air to improve
secondary combustion of gases
Door handle, pull out right away from fire.
Wear protective glove when fire is lit.
Ash pan: when lighting open primary air slider (behind
handle on ash pan) and pull open the ash pan by 1cm.
Secondary air: the air slider is placed below the ash
pan. Pull out for more air and push in to reduce air.
Once warm your stove will be controlled only from
this valve.
