Light the newspaper or firelighters using a long taper and close the door. When the fire is burning strongly, add further logs of a diameter up to 10cms.
Keep the grate free from a heavy build-up of ashes. The Junior Franklin stove is equipped with a grate riddling device which is used to shake ashes off the grate and into the ashpan. If the stove is burning without life and the lower control is open, use the riddling lever to clear the grate of ash.
