Description

Around nearly since Optimus was founded more than a century ago, the Svea stove has been a cult classic for light-and-fast climbers’ and alpinists’ gear bags for decades.

Your fingers are itching to send the route, but food is energy. Around nearly since Optimus was founded more than a century ago, the Svea stove has been a cult classic for light-and-fast climbers’ and alpinists’ gear bags for decades.

Its simple, design in nearly bulletproof solid brass keeps it rugged too: The lid doubles as your cook pot. No loose parts to misplace.

And the handle serves as a maintenance tool. A built-in cleaning needle helps you keep the flame burning and that pot of nourishment simmering.

The exacting flame control lets you unpack your kit while the soup simmers, but you can get it boiling hard quickly when you can’t wait.

Great for solos, high-altitude adventures (uses white gas for best efficiency), or anytime super light is super right.

OPERATING THE STOVE

1. FILLING OF FUEL. Fill max 2/3 of the tank. Capacity of tank 0,18 L

2. PRE-HEATING. Put some Optimus burning paste in the spirit cup. (Gasoline or methylated spirit can also be used. Do not spill.) Put the windshield in its place. Turn the regulating key to the right as far as possible. Light the paste or the gasoline.

3. LIGHTING. When the paste or the gasoline is almost burnt out, turn the regulating key to the left, letting the gas out through the hole of the jet. The gas will then ignite. Should the gas not ignite, light with a match. Regulate the flame by turning the key. Place the saucepan on the stove. Use the handle for placing the saucepan

on the stove and for removing it. To extinguish the burner, turn the key to the right as far as possible.

4. CLEANING OF JET. Turn the key quickly to the left as far as possible and back again. If the flame should go out – keep a match ready
