10. Extended Burning
10.1 It is possible to get the appliance to burn for extended
periods of time. In order to do this:
—De-ashpriortonalrefuelling.
— Burn new fuel at a high temperature for a few minutes
before adjusting the Primary Air Control.
— Set air controls to low combustion settings.
This will gradually blacken the glass but it will clear when
operated at a high temperature for a short period.
— Use smokeless fuel or small, thick logs depending on
fuel desired.
NOTE: It is not recommended to extend the burning
period in Smoke Control Areas. This process increases
the amount of smoke produced.

11. Ash Removal
Do not allow ash to build up as it may cause damage
and adversely effect the performance of the appliance.
Warning: Ash can remain hot long after appliance has
been in use.
11.1 All Models:
— De-ash the appliance before filling with new fuel. Do not
allow ash to build up on the underside of the grate as this
can cause premature failure.
— Riddle with the tool provided, see Diagram 11.
— Leave a layer of ash to start the new fire on. Wood burns
best on a bed of ash (approx. 25mm (1") deep).
