- set the thermostat adjustment lever at position «1»
(fully closed),
- refit the rear metal heat shield.
2.5. Check list before lighting stove
- Check that all firebox parts (grates, flue baffle) are
correctly fitted and that the oscillating grates move
correctly when operated

casting (flue collar, blanking plates, loading doors,
etc...)

Instructions for user
Don’t run the stove in mild weather with coal : Under
certain circumstances (e.g. fog and repeated thaw)
the chimney will not draw sufficiently well and thus
be at the origin of asphyxia.
Awaiting better weather circumstances, don’t use
any coal but only wood.
Warning :
properly installed and operated this
appliance will not emit fumes into the dwelling .
Occasional fumes from de-ashing and re-fueling may
occur. Persistant fume emission is dangerous and must
not be tolerated. If fume emission does persist :
• Open doors and windows to ventilate room
• Let the fire out and dispose of fuel from the appliance
• Check for flue or chimney blockage, and clean if
required
• Do not attempt to relight the fire until the cause of the
fume emission has been identified and corrected. If
necessary seek expert advice.
Note
: It is recommended to use a fireguard in the
presence of children, and also in the presence of old
and/or infirm people.
3.1. Lighting the stove
- Use crumpled paper or firelighters and enough
kindling wood to obtain a good fire bed.
- Set thermostat control in maximum open position. -
Light the paper through the fuel retainer and close the
loading doors.
- Once the embers are glowing, load the firebox with
solid fuel and close the doors carefully.
- Once the fire is burning well, set the thermostat to
desired position.
- At first lighting, build up heat slowly to allow the
appliance to be correctly “run in”.
Note
: When the fire is lit for the first time, the stove may
emit some fumes and give off a new paint smell for the
first couple of hours. This is quite normal and you
shouldn’t worry about it. Make sure the room is well
ventilated during initial use.
3.2. Running the stove
Rate of burning is obtained by setting the thermostat
control.
Experience will show you which settings are best for
under fire, check for soundness of seals, leave the
appliance operational with the heating system correctly
balanced, hand over user instructions.
2.6. Chimney maintenance and sweeping
Very important :
to avoid accidents (chimney fire, etc.),
regular maintenance should be carried out. If the stove
is regularly used, the chimney should be swept several
times per year, together with the stovepipe connection
section.
Chimney condition should be checked at least once per
year.q
Fuel
Recommended fuel :
Coal
Sunbrite (small) - Anthracite (Medium) - Dry Wood
Wood
- Use hard wood logs which have been cut for at least
two years and stored under shelter.
- Hardwood has a higher calorific value per cu metre
(oak, ash, maple, birch, elm, beech, etc.).
- Large logs must be split and cut to the usable
length , before being stored in a sheltered and
ventilated place.
Not recommended as fuel :
- “green wood”. Green or damp wood reduces stove
efficiency and makes the window, the internal walls
and the flue dirty (soot, tar, etc.).
-“used timbers”. Burning treated wood (railway
sleepers, telegraph poles, offcuts of plywood or chip
board, pallets, etc.) quickly clogs the flue ways
(soot, tar, etc.), pollutes the environment (pollution
and smell, etc.) and cause the fire to burn too quickly
and overheat.
“Green wood” and “recovered wood” can eventually
cause a chimney fire.
Prohibited fuel :
Any form of bituminous coal or
petroleum based coke. q
your situation. In general, the higher position is only
required for lighting and restoring the fire.
Overnight burning :
Riddle and de-ash ; run on high setting the stove for
about 15 - 20 minutes : once the embers are glowing
well, stoke up the fire ; half close the thermostat control
for about 15- 20 minutes before finally setting the
thermostat control for the night at low position.
De-ashing
(p. 5, fig. 6)
Riddle and de-ash before refuelling and every time
grates become congested. Keep fire bed and air inlet
free from ash.
Riddle with vigorous forward and backwards movement
of the riddling tool.
