FRONT DOOR HANDLE
Firewood can be loaded into the stove through the
door of the combustion chamber; the door has a
wooden handle. To open the door, pull the handle
up and open the door outwards. To close the
door, push it firmly against the stove and press the
handle towards the stove and down until it closes.
Gently pull the door handle to make sure the door
is securely closed.
ASH PAN
(This item gets hot when the stove is being used.
Only remove the ash pan after the stove has cooled
down). To access the ash pan, open the ash pan
door. Hold the bottom of the ash pan door and pull;
then let it drop open. When the ash pan door has
opened fully, release it and let it hang loose. The
ash pan handle and grate handle (see Figure 5) are
now accessible. To remove the ash pan, hold the
handle and pull. The ash pan collects the ash from
the fire and once it is full it enables you to easily
remove the ashes from the stove. Clean the ash
from the combustion chamber on a regular basis.
With the ash pan in place and no other fuel but
ashes in the stove, hold the grate shaker handle and
pull it towards you Push the ash through the grate
at the bottom of the combustion chamber. The ash
will fall into the ash pan. Alternately, repeatedly
shake the grate using the handle to make the ash
fall into the pan.

Do not use the stove if the ASH PAN is not in place
and the ash pan door is not sealed. Inadequate
sealing due to the poor condition of the ceramic
seal could cause overheating and damage the
stove.
PRIMARY AIR LEVER
The main air control lever is located below the
ash pan (see Figure 6). The main air control allows
you to regulate the amount of air entering the
combustion chamber. Generally, the greater the
air intake into the combustion chamber, the faster
the combustion process and, conversely, less air
leads to a slower combustion process. To achieve
maximum air flow, move the lever to the left as
far as possible; to minimize air flow, move it to the
right as far as possible (do not close completely).
