There is a big hole at the bottom of the Firebox where the Burner Tray goes.<br />
The Burner Tray can be either made for Solid Fuel Tablets or methylated<br />
spirits.<br />
Above that is either a Water Level Plug or a Sight Glass Assembly. Both are<br />
methods of knowing if the water level is correct before the fuel is ignited.<br />
On the top of the Firebox you will see the Whistle that is screwed into the<br />
boiler. Two types were fitted. You will either have a spring-loaded arm or it<br />
will be a twist lever type as shown here.<br />
If this is revolving instead of tightening, you have a major problem. The<br />
solder holding the threaded collar for the whistle has failed.
