TESTING AND COMMISSIONING
Turn on and test the gas supply up to the fire for any leaks, in accordance with current Approved Codes Of
Practice (ACOPs).
When the appliance is first used, protective oils coating the firebox may burn off. It is advisable to ventilate the
room during this period, at least one hour.
OPERATING THE FIRE
Turn on the power supply and momentarily press
the ON switch on the control box located under the
coke coal lever. The fan should operate with the
warning light illuminated. Almost immediately the
fan will slow down to operating speed and a click
may be heard as the safety solenoid opens allowing
gas to the burner unit. The warning light on the
control box should extinguish.
The pilot is visible through the underside of the left
hand front coal strip. Push in and turn the control
knob to the SPARK position, and hold there for a few seconds.
Continue turning anti-clockwise through the spark click to the PILOT light position, ensuring the pilot has lit. If
not, return the knob clockwise, and repeat.
When the pilot lights after the spark, keep the knob depressed for approximately ten seconds. Now release the
knob and the pilot should stay alight. If not, retry ignition. If the pilot is extinguished during use of the fire, wait
three minutes before repeating the ignition procedure.
To achieve the HIGH setting, push the control knob in slightly and continue turning anti-clockwise to the high
position. The main burner should light after a few seconds. To decrease the setting to LOW, turn the control knob
clockwise to the low setting. To turn to the PILOT position from the HIGH or LOW positions, press the control
knob in, and return to the pilot position and release. To turn the fire OFF, keep the knob pressed in, return to the
off position and release. Press the OFF button on the control box to switch off the fan.
SPARK FAILURE
The gap between the spark electrode and the pilot should be 3.5 - 4.5mm to produce a good spark. There should
be no need to adjust this. If under any circumstances the electric spark fails, the pilot may be lit manually by
proceeding with the ignition sequence as previously described, and after turning the control knob through the
spark position, the knob should be held in and the pilot lit with a taper.
FLAME CONTROL LEVER
On Natural Gas appliances there is a flame control lever behind the ashpan door that varies the flame colour from
blue to a decorative yellow. The customer should be instructed in it’s position and that it can be used to vary the
flame picture as required. To minimise any carbon deposition that may occur, it is recommended that the fire is
used on the COKE setting for the first and last periods (approximately 20 mins.) of each use.
SETTING PRESSURE
Remove the screw from the pressure test point, situated on the
main injector pipe by the pilot, and attach a U gauge. Light the fire
on the HIGH setting. The setting pressure should be in
accordance with the figures stated on page 2 of these instructions.
The fire is factory set to achieve these pressures, and any
significant variation could indicate a supply problem. If the
pressure is too high, the gas supply meter may be set incorrectly.
This should be checked with the fire running and if necessary reset
by the gas supplier.
