Top or Rear Flue 

 
Remove  the  collar  and  accessory  pack  from  the  stove.  
The stove will arrive with the blanking plate fitted to the 
rear.  This can be removed if required allowing the collar 
to be fitted for rear flue installations.   
 
Remove the circular cut out for rear flue installations. 
 
Remember  to  fit  the  blanking  plate  to  the  unused  flue 
position if it has been removed. 

OPERATION 

 

ALWAYS OPEN THE STOVE DOOR SLOWLY AND ALWAYS USE THE GLOVE 

 
Primary Air - controllable 
 

Primary  air  is  controlled  via  the  sliding  vent  in  the  bottom  of  the  door.    This 
provides  an  air  draught  through  the  grate  to  the  bed  of  the  fire.  Slide  right  to 
open and left to close. Open this when you start a fire, and to regulate solid fuels 
other  than  wood.  It  should  be  closed  when  a  wood  fire  is  established  for  the 
best efficiency but can be used to give a wood fire a boost when it is dying out. 
 

Secondary Air - controllable 

 
Secondary air is controlled via the sliding vent above the door, it is this ‘airwash’ 
that  keeps  a  clean  and  uninterrupted  view  of  the  fire,  and  also  aids  good 
secondary combustion of fuel; thus reducing emissions in the chimney and out 
to the environment. Slide to the right to open and to the left to close.  Use this 
to control wood fires.  It should be closed when burning solid fuels other than 
wood for the best efficiency after the fire is established.
