. A layer of embers will form rapidly if the stove is
lit with - fire lighters or 7 - 0 rolled up sheets
of newspaper, underneath roughly - kg of dry
kindling.
. Fully open the secondary air supply (the air con-
trols).
. After the paper/fire lighters have caught fire, leave
the fire door ajar about - cm, so that the chim-
ney draws well.
. After 5-0 minutes the chimney draft should be
established, at this point close the fire door. If all
the necessary conditions are met, a nice layer of
embers will start to accumulate after another 5 -
0 minutes.
2.1 lighting and refuelling intervals
Kindling (dry sticks) requires a large volume of air for quick combustion. When lighting the
stove from cold it will help to keep the main door ajar (-cms) for the first few minutes. When
firing with wood only, the riddling grate would normally be in the closed position (push the rid-
dling handle under the ash-lip backwards). When only burning wood it is recommended that a
cm deep ash bed be established and maintained on the grate of the stove.
