mm in size). The coal should be dry.

When burning coal a little extra care is needed. Please take note of

the section "Special Points For Burning Coal".

Only dry well seasoned wood logs should be burnt on this appliance

as burning wet unseasoned wood will give rise to heavy tar deposits

in the stove, on the glass and within the chimney. For the same reason

hard wood is better than soft wood. Burning wet unseasoned wood

will also result in considerably reduced outputs. The wood logs

should be cut and split and then left to season in a well ventilated dry

place for at least one year but preferably two years before use.

Ensure that the peat is well dried before use. Burning wet peat will

give rise to heavy tar deposits and reduced outputs.

Take care not to touch the door as it will be hot when the fire is
