Stanley De - Luxe 90 questions

[gavdownie]

This thing is a bit if a mystery olto me .

The boiler and the oven dials have 'Idle' marked on them, does anyone know what temp that sits at?


I've discovered the boiler won't fire unless the oven is on at minimum temperature, which seems daft.

There is also a Pull To Open dial/rod . I've no idea what that is for.

Any knowledge or advice anyone can offer would be gratefully received.

Thanks

Idle just means low as possible. When cooking/using oven it's impossible not to create so much hot water/heating.
Likewise its impossible not to get so much hotplate/Oven temperature when using it set for heating/hot water.
The operating rod moves a internal baffle to divert heat either for heating or cooking.
Yours is a single burner cooker not to be confused with the twin burner models.
Also to be clear the 90 is not the output! It refers to cooker being 90cm wide.
