It tells you at the bottom so common live or live from your hot water on from programmer terminal 1
Switched live that opens the hot water zone valve terminal 2 assuming it’s an s plan heating system?

How many wires are in the old cylinder stat?
 
Hi sorry there no previous stat fitted its to activate just circulation pump fitted to multi fuel stove I wired it with blue to far right number 3 and my live feed to 1 witch is the center and then my live to the pump I put in far left number 1 then when it activated it blew a fuse and the stat
 
You do realise that you don’t simply connect a live and then a neutral as there’s no neutral connection on the stat
What you have are effectively a common live (Possibly fed from a programmer)and a n/o or n/c contacts.
The connections you want are 1 and 2 see my first post.
 
Ok thanks everyone for your help I will try some of things you told me and it is to kick on at high limit in case air lock or something disrupts syphonic circulation to uncontrollable heat sorce thanks very much
