Primary air is controlled via the rotating dials at the bottom of the stove These provides a conventional air under draught to the bed of the fire The primary air is used when lighting the stoves or when the fuel bed goes very low The primary air inlet will usually be closed when burning wood and open when burning coal type Secondary Air Air Wash Firewarm stoves are provided with a powerful air wash system This secondary air supply to the stove is controlled via a sliding air control located on the top right of the stove just below the door If you want clean glass always leave this control open some way whilst burning unless the stove is being shut right down for a long period Moving the sliding control towards the wide side of the arrow increases the burn rate whilst moving it towards the narrow side reduces it Multifuel Grate Your Firewarm Stove is fitted with a rotary style grate which is operated from the front of the stove via a riddle rod Use the Hook end of tool to operate the riddling system This rotary grate is located in the centre of a cast iron flat bed with suitable air slots that assist the burning of most fuels It is important to use the rotary grate to de ash regularly to ensure that the primary airflow is not impeded as a build up of ash can damage the cast iron bed Ashpan It is essential that you empty the steel ash pan every day Use the thick end of tool to hook onto and lift the ash pan out of
