If during the lighting stage, excess oil is allowed to build up in the pot, the burner will race and
generate quite loud audible vibrations, if this occurs don’t panic, turn the oil flow control knob to
off and just open the front door and hold it open 15mm or 1/2" to take the pull off the fire, the
more you open the door the more the flame will die down, hold the door slightly open until the
flame starts to reduce in size, at this stage restart the flow of oil at setting No 1 so allowing the
burner to run correctly at its low speed.
When the burner has been running for ten to fifteen minutes move the oil flow control knob
round to position 3 and leave for another ten minutes after which it will be safe to run the burner
up to full output.
When the burner is running correctly on position 1 ( OW FIRE) the lower catalyser will be
glowing dull red. Keep an eye on the low fire and if a dirty yellow flame can be seen, call back
your service man to re adjust the oil flow.
On full output, after approximately ten minutes, the coals should begin to glow red and there
should be whispy blue flames licking through them, to get the maximum effect the stove will
need to be left for half an hour or so, if there are a lot of yellow flames call back your service
man to re adjust the oil flow, a few yellow flames are acceptable.
Excess oil flow, poor flue vacuum, bad coal positioning or bad lighting technique will cause
rapid sooting of the glass and coals.
NEVER TRY TO RELIGHT A HOT BURNER, MAKE SURE THAT THE BURNER IS
COMPLETELY COOLED DOWN BEFORE RE LIGHTING.

The door glass will require light cleaning occasionally
The frequency of cleaning will depend upon how the stove is used.
Where stoves are ignited each day then the glass may soot up as the lighting process may
generate a little soot until the stove has settled down into blue flame combustion.
ight the stove as per the instructions, let it settle down into blue flame combustion (this may
take 15 minutes or so) Then turn the stove on to low fire and when the flame has reduced to the
bottom of the pot, open the door and gently dust the soot off the glass,
Do this quickly and don’t leave the door open for long say 20 to 30 seconds max.
Close the door and the flame will draw up and then settle down again.
Turn the oil flow up to the required setting.
Where stoves are running continuously then the glass will need cleaning less frequently but
when cleaning is required you will need to let the stove go out and completely cool down
Use a soft cloth and slightly damp it with vinegar or a proprietary stove glass cleaner
Very gently rub the glass in a vertical direction, do not rub the glass with horizontal motion
otherwise you may disturb the glass strips.
After cleaning wipe dry making sure that you have not dislodged the glass strips.
To clean the stove externally, let it go out and simply brush away any dust with a very soft
brush.
To clean the stove internally, use a soft brush to remove any dust or combustion debris into a
vacuum cleaner hose.
