1.1 This stove is designed for domestic heating and should only
be used for this purpose, and in accordance with the
manufacturers operating instructions.
It should be installed by a competent installer, in
accordance with the relevant local and national
regulations.
1.2 The stove should only be used to burn approved fuels and
should not be used with liquid fuels or used as an
incinerator.
1.3 As with all heating stoves the surfaces will become very hot
when in use, therefore due care should be taken when near
the stove. If the appliance is to be used in the presence of
young children, elderly or infirm persons a suitable fireguard
should be used. Care should also be taken with the
placement of combustible items near the stove as
conducted and radiated heat could cause a fire hazard.
1.4 Due to the high temperature of the convected air above the
front of the stove we recommend that no valuable
photographs, paintings, porcelain or other items are placed
on the wall in this area. Such artifacts may be damaged by
long term exposure to fluctuating temperatures.
1.5 The additional ventilation required for the safe use of this
stove should be kept free of any obstructions, both inside
and outside the building, at all times.
1.6 Have your Stovax product serviced annually by a
competent service engineer, and if repairs are required use
only Stovax approved spare parts.

Push/Pull to operate
3.11 We would recommend that the stove is burnt at high
output for at least 30 minutes each day when it is in use.
This will help reduce the build-up of tars and creosotes
within the appliance.
4.1 Open the Airwash control to approximately 50% and the
Primary air control fully.
4.2 Place some pieces of firelighter or dry crumpled paper on
the grate and cover with some small pieces of dry kindling
wood. Light the paper or firelighters. Do not burn plastics.
4.3 To avoid the build-up of condensation on the glass door it
is advisable to leave the door slightly open as the fire
establishes, and the glass warms.
4.4 As the fire becomes established add larger pieces of solid
fuel and fully close the door. Do not leave the stove with
the door slightly open as this could over-fire the stove and
cause permanent damage.
The stove may be operated with the door fully open if a
sparkguard (Stockton 7 - Stovax part 7227/Stockton 8 Stovax part 7228) is fitted.
4.5 As the fire becomes established reduce the Airwash air
control to approximately 25% and control the burn rate
using Primary air control only.
4.6 Before re-fuelling the appliance it is advisable to first de-ash
the firebed, using the riddling grate system, operated by
using removable handle to pull the riddling knob in and
out. This causes the ash to fall down into the ashpan. Do
not use bare hands to operate the riddling system.
4.7 Then open the Primary air control fully for a few minutes,
to establish a glowing bed before adding new fuel.
4.8 Allow the new fuel to burn at a high output for a few
minutes before adjusting the burn rate with the Primary air
control to the desired setting. It is best to refuel little and
often to maintain clean and effective burning.
4.9 The ideal control settings to suit the particular installation
and personal preferences will be established by experience
in using the stove.
4.10 It is not recommended to load large amounts of fuel and
burn with the Primary air control on low settings for long
periods of time. As this will reduce the effectiveness of the
glass cleaning effect of te airwash. Also this will cause a
large build-up of tars and creosotes in the stove and flue
system.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
2.1 When new, it is best to burn the fire at a low output for the
first few days of use. This will allow the construction to
settle and all fixing glues and paint to fully cure.
2.2 During this time the stove may give off some unpleasant
odours, and we recommend that you keep the room well
ventilated during this period to avoid a build-up of fumes.
3.1 Open the Airwash control fully and open the Primary air
control to approximately 25% open.
3.2 Place some pieces of firelighter or dry crumpled paper on
the grate and cover with some small pieces of dry kindling
wood. Light the paper or firelighters. Do not burn plastics.
3.3 To avoid the build up of condensation on the door glass it is
advisable to leave the door slightly open as the fire
establishes, and the glass warms.
3.4 As the fire becomes established add larger pieces of wood
and fully close the door. Do not leave the stove with the
door slightly open as this could over-fire the stove and
cause permanent damage.
The stove may be operated with the door fully open if a
sparkguard (Stockton 7 - Stovax part 7227/Stockton 8 Stovax part 7228) is fitted.
3.5 As the fire becomes established close the Primary air
control and control the burn rate using the Airwash control
only.
3.6 To burn wood efficiently it is best to allow a bed of ash to
build-up on the grate, and control the combustion using the
Airwash control only.
3.7 Before re-fuelling the stove it is advisable to first rake the
embers evenly over the firebed then open the Airwash
control fully for a few minutes, to establish a glowing bed
before adding new logs.
3.8 Allow the new logs to burn at high output for a few minutes
before adjusting the burn rate with the Airwash control to
the desired setting. It is best to refuel little and often to
maintain clean and efficient burning.
3.9 The ideal control settings to suit the particular installation
and personal preferences will be established by experience
in using the appliance.
3.10 It is not recommended to load large amounts of logs and
burn with the Airwash control on low settings for long
periods of time. As this will reduce the effectiveness of the
glass cleaning effect of the airwash. Also this will cause a
large build up of tars and creosotes in the stove and flue
system.
