Stockton Series 7 and 8 Inset Convector Stove Models 7125, 7126 User Instructions

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.

odours, and we recommend that you keep the room well
