    I'm not too shy with things mechanical, but, does anyone have a schematic/exploded parts diagram of the valve assembly on the No. 12 stove ?

    When I first got mine it was fine and when wound fully anticlock the needle duly emerged from the jet. This is no longer the case - how much trouble is stripping down the unit and what are the availability of spares (from anywhere) should I come unstuck ?

    Hi Aardvark,
    As I recently did the fettle (see posting in the fettle forum) I can confirm that for the spindle the 111 part fits. Same should hold true for the jet which I didn't replace. I needed a needle as my stove didn't have one. the one available from hytta.de fits generally but following another members advise I rounded the back side of the body of the needle a bit. Fits well now.
    So overall just the usual stove fettle with spare parts readily available
    Good luck
