Yes, you just put it up and down.
The lower it is the lower the temperature. Be aware of having it too high as it smokes. This can lead to the inside of your greenhouse being covering in soot.

They are very simple to use but it may be worth taking a look at the FAQ on the parasene site.

keep the wick well trimmed and level so it burns blue with no spikes as spikes of orange flame will cause soot

The 681 is designed to burn with a yellow flame it cannot produce a blue flame.
