Mr. Tugs, that stove was made around 1979-81

Could very well have been before stoves were tested. In fact, I would guess so because the spring handles....got too hot to pass most testing, so they went to wood or removable handles.

It could be very difficult to find a manual, and if you find one it will probably not be of much help since knowledge was very limited at that time.
