Trangia catalog 2000 1
It’s a good idea to light the burner before putti
ng the upper windshield in position. The combined frypan/lid can be put on top of the pan to speed up heating and save fuel. The heart of the storm-proof stove system is the two-part windshield. The ventilation holes in the lower windshield are directed into the wind to increase the oxygen supply to the burner. If the wind becomes too strong, the stove is turned to maintain the required flame. The stove stands stable, with the pan on the supports recessed into the upper windshield. The supports are turned upwards when the frypan is used. The Trangia burner runs on Tenol or methylated spirits, which are cheap, safe and readily available. The fuel can be stored in Trangia’s own bottles, which are available in two sizes, each with a safety valve. See accessories, page 15. The numerous design details are the result of a programme of constant development to create functional outdoor products of the highest quality. 4-5 THE TR A N GIA P R INC I PLE
