Door adjustment
The door is unlikely to become misaligned unless it is knocked and attempts at adjustment
may cause, rather than solve, a problem. Always consult your
Arrow
dealer before
attempting any adjustment to the door.
1. Remove door by opening fully and lifting door up off the hinge.
2. Loosen the top & bottom screws securing the door hinge to the front of the firebox
upright.
3. Move the hinge left or right as necessary and re-tighten the screws.
Mark door sealing edge with coloured chalk and close the door. Re-open and check the door
is aligned properly via the chalk mark left on the fibreglass door seal of the heater.
NOTE: The door handle may pull the door down on the right hand side, compensate for this
situation during adjustment.
Baffle plate removal
The baffle plate is held in place with four locating tabs – 2 either side, front and rear of the
firebox.
WARNING: ALLOW THE HEATER TO COOL IF HOT BEFORE ATTEMPTING BAFFLE
PLATE REMOVAL.
1.
Lift the front of the baffle up and pull
forward over the supports until the baffle
clears the locating slots in the back wall of
the firebox.
2.
Lower the rear of the baffle to drop down
and rest on the floor of the firebox.
3.
Lower the front of the baffle until it clears
the support brackets & remove it from the
firebox.
The baffle plate should be removed and inspected annually and flaky deposits shaken or
brushed off. The most convenient time to maintain the baffle is when the flue is being cleaned.
Flue system
Under normal conditions, using dry hardwood and employing correct operating procedures,
annual flue maintenance should take place prior to the heating season. If your heaters
performance deteriorates, or if it smokes excessively after a trouble free period of operation,
the cause may be creosote. The creosote may have built up to a level where the gases are
restricted from exiting the flue pipe because it is partially blocked.
CAUTION:
THE FLUE PIPE MUST BE KEPT CLEAN AND IN GOOD CONDITION. ALL SOLID
FUEL BURNING APPLIANCES NEED TO BE CLEANED FREQUENTLY BECAUSE SOOT,
CREOSOTE AND ASH MAY ACCUMULATE. IN THE EVENT OF A SOOT OR CREOSOTE FIRE IN
THE FLUE, IMMEDIATELY CLOSE THE AIR INLET CONTROL TO STARVE THE FIRE OF OXYGEN.
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU CALL THE FIRE BRIGADE FOR FUTHER ASSISTANCE AND
ADVICE. WHEN THE FIRE IS OUT, HAVE THE FLUE INSPECTED BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER
TO ENSURE THERE HAS NOT BEEN ANY DAMAGE TO THE FLUE SYSTEM.
For cleaning the flue, you may purchase a flue brush from your
Arrow
dealer, or you can
engage the services of a chimney sweep.
