OPERATION
To operate the Tertiary Air, push to open and pull to
close. Open tertiary air slider only when the fire is
established.
Note:
Close off the tertiary air for overnight burn.
OVERNIGHT BURNING
To achieve an overnight or a slow burn rate, close
the Air Wash Shutter fully, close the front spin valve
fully then open about half a turn, or less, depending
on draught conditions. If the fuel load is too small or
the draught too strong the spin valve may need to be
closed even further to sustain the low burn rate. This
will be found by trial and error by adjusting the
amount of air depending upon the amount of fuel left
over at the end of the burning period.
REMEMBER:
Coal gases are toxic so ensure there
is sufficient draught to take the flue gasses up the
chimney and not into the room.
WARNING:
Failure to comply with the Installation
and Operating Instructions outlined above may
result in carbon monoxide entering the house rather
than being drawn up the chimney.
RE-FUELLING
Riddle the fire by connecting the grate operating tool
onto the rocker connection located at the bottom
front of the stove, then gently pull and push the rock-
er arm until all dead ash has fallen through into the
ashpan. Before opening the door, open the spin
valve by turning it anti-clockwise, as this will help to
eliminate any smoke or fly ash resident in the com-
bustion chamber. Add fuel to the fire, taking care not
to over fill. Close fire door and re-set the spin valve
to the required setting.
DE-ASHING
Never allow the ashpan to over fill as it will cause
damage to the grate. When ash build-up becomes
excessive in the fire chamber riddle the fire until all
dead ash has fallen through to the ashpan. Open the
front door (Part No.14) and remove ashpan (Part
No.11) using the operating tool (Part No.1). Close
the front door (Part No. 14). When the ash is dis-
posed of, replace the empty ashpan. Do not leave
this appliance with the loading door open even for a
short time.

DISPOSAL OF ASHES
The ashpan must be emptied every day. If ashes
are allowed to build up to grate level the fire box
insert could be damaged by overheating. We rec-
ommend that you remove ashes after you have rid-
dled the fire. Ashes can be very hot and should be
placed in a metal or other non-combustible contain-
er with a tight fitting lid. The closed container of
ashes should be placed on a non-combustible mate-
rial, pending final disposal. If ashes are buried in
soil, or otherwise dumped they should be retained in
the closed container until they are thoroughly
cooled. Fig.10
TO CLEAN CHIMNEY OUTLET
Remove the back bricks and the side bricks.
Remove the fire fence (3 off) and lift the baffle from
its supports, then move it forward to clear
the support at the rear. Drop rear of baffle and rotate
it until the baffle is upside down on top of the firebed.
Lift one side of the baffle to allow it to be removed
through the front opening. Ensure the tertiary air
pipe is sealed to the right hand side with fire cement.
