Once your SHELBURNE stove has been installed and connected to the chimney, you
are ready to light the fire.
 BE CAREFUL!:
THIS OPERATION PRODUCES HEAT. KEEP CHILDREN, CLOTHING AND
FURNITURE AT A DISTANCE. CONTACT WITH THE STOVE MAY CAUSE SKIN
BURNS.
Please read this chapter fully before lighting the stove for the first time. It explains
the controls and features of your wood burning stove, how to choose the wood, how to light
it and its daily use.
Although the operating of your stove is easy, the combustion process for solid fuels is
complex, given that various factors are involved and time and experience is required to
understand how it is done.

A.- CONTROLS AND FEATURES

Before lighting any fire, become familiar with the location and operating of the control
and parts of your stove and learn how to use them. (See Fig. 1 Page 4)
For your own safety, do not modify these parts under any circumstances.
1. FRONT DOOR CONTROL: The front door allows for wood to be loaded into your
stove. To open the door, lift the control to the ten o'clock position (on the clock) and pull the
door. To close the door, lower the position to 7 o'clock (on the clock). Pull on the door to
ensure that it is well closed.
2. PRIMARY AIR CONTROL: This control is located on the lower left hand side of
your stove. The primary air control allows for the amount of air entering the fireplace to be
adjusted. Pull the control towards the front of the stove to open the primary air inlet. Push
the control towards the back of the stove to close the primary air inlet.
3. SECONDARY AIR SELF-ADJUSTMENT: Secondary air is provided through the
deflector tubes and is distributed proportionally in the combustion chamber. The greater the
combustion the more heat and, as a result, greater draught and better secondary air
provision.
4. ASH PAN: This collects the hot ash caused by the fire and allows you to remove
the ashes easily from your stove. It is housed underneath the tray.
Push the ashes through the grate to the ash pan then move the front of the ash pan
forwards and then fold downwards, leaving the hole of the ash pan housing free. Remove
the ash pan by pulling on the handle using a protective glove and then slide outwards
carefully. After emptying the ashes, replace the ash pan, pressing it down to ensure it is
sealed against the base of the fireplace. Replace the front of the ash pan.
Remove ashes when the stove is cold. If the ash pan is hot, always use protective gloves.
Take extreme care when handling, storing or throwing away the ashes.
Do not light the stove until the ash pan is in its position inside the stove and the ash
pan door is closed. An excess of air entering may overheat and damage your stove.
