3.0 Preparation of Stove for Installation
.
Your stove comes assembled, checked and packed in a protective plywood crate. Carefully
cut and remove the straps and lift off the top and upper crate. Remove any plastic
packaging, open the doors and remove all the contents. See List of Components section
(above) and check contents carefully.
WARNING: The stove is VERY HEAVY and should only be moved by more than one person using
appropriate equipment to assist.
3.1.
If required remove the firebox and oven doors for easy handling
–
this is not normally
necessary. Remove the retaining clips on the bottom of the hinge pins. Open to about 30
degrees and lift upwards to disengage.
3.2.
Remove all the interior components of the stove using the following procedure. SEE ALSO
MAINTENANCE GUIDE section.
3.2.1.
Remove the flame grilling shelf from the firebox. Remove the fuel retainer bars by
lifting upwards until they can be disengaged from the side firebox liners and rotated
slightly to bring out of the front of the firebox.
3.2.2.
Remove the baffle plate by sliding forward about 40mm, lifting and rotating until it
can be dropped down. There is a ceramic insulating board on top of the baffle plate
–
handle this carefully to avoid breakage. The plate and board can then be removed
from the firebox and removed from the firebox opening.
3.2.3.
Remove the two cast ceramic firebox side liners by gently easing the FRONT edges
forward and sliding away from the 45 degree mitre joint with the back liner at the
rear corners. Take great care not to chip or damage the surfaces of these ceramic
components
–
support the rear liner so that it cannot fall over and break!
3.2.4.
Now remove the rear firebox liner. Handle and store these ceramic liners very
carefully to one side where they will not get broken.
3.2.5.
If required remove the grate and ash pan tray from the bottom of the firebox
3.2.6.
The flue spigot collar may now be fitted. Locate the 3 x M6 cap screws, 3 x nuts and
the spigot which are packed in the firebox or oven section. Fit the spigot to the outlet
using the gasket provided or fire cement to seal.
3.3.
Move the stove into its final position using at least one assistant.
3.4.
If required fix the stove to the hearth as required by using commercially available angle
brackets and drilling the stove legs for fixings.
3.5.
Make the connection to the flue, chimney or liner using appropriate rigid flue pipe or
adaptor, making sure to seal all joints carefully. NOTE: The first 450mm of flue pipe MUST
be single wall to allow the bolster lid to open correctly.
A specific heatshield kit is available
to reduce distance to combustibles behind the stove if necessary.
3.6.
Now complete the installation according to these instructions, Building Regulations and
current installation standards, e.g.
British Standards BS 8303
or competent person scheme
advice.
3.7.
The internal parts of the stove can be re-assembled as the reverse of the previous removal
instructions.
Optional kits and accessories have specific instructions provided.
