oil flow regulator
Explanation:
Literally, this is what it means. So "regelen van oliedebietregelaar" is the adjustment of the oil flow regulator to allow more or less oil to feed the stove.

oil reducer


Explanation:
Ik ken het woord debietregelaar vanuit een andere context en daar wordt het vertaald met 'reducer'. Het is dus een gok of dat hier ook opgaat. Op Google vind je vele hits. Mogelijk kun je daaruit afleiden of dit ook voor jouw context geldt.

Succes.
