SERVICE & MAINTENANCE
SUMMER STORAGE / NON
USAGE
Please ensure that your stove is left clean and
moving components are well lubricated for the
summer months (during periods of prolonged non
use). If possible store the throat plate outside of
the stove, check all moveable components, at
regular intervals, to ensure they are moving freely.
Allow air movement through the stove, by opening
the air wash and primary air inlet (s) controls to
about half way open or leave the door ajar. This
will allow a free flow of air through the appliance
thus preventing moisture and condensation
forming inside the stove and chimney. This
preventative maintenance will ensure your stove
stays in the best condition for the coming winter
months.
ADJUSTING THE DOOR HINGES
Once the appliance has been under fire for a
period of time the fire door may appear to have
moved out of alignment with relation to the door
aperture or catch. This is quite normal and due to
the settling of the casting.
The fire door can be re-aligned as follows :
When the appliance is cold, open the fire door
so that it is at right angles to the front of the
stove.
Lift the fire door up off its hinges.
Gently tap the hinge pins in the direction to
compensate for the misalignment. (Fig. 9)
Re-fit the door and check to ensure it now sits
square to the body; if not repeat the above
steps.
If the fire door needs to be raised, please follow :
When the appliance is cold, open the fire door
so that it is at right angles to the front of the
stove.
Lift the fire door up off the hinges.
Drop one washer on the top and bottom hinge
pins.
Refit the door and check.
Please Note : There is no adjustment to the
door lock / catch assembly.
FUEL RETAINER BARS -
INSPECTION
Fuel retainer bars are supplied with the stove.
Periodically check for any bowing or heat warp age
to the fuel retaining bars and replace as
necessary.
Please Note : This operation should only be
carried out when the appliance is unlit and
cold.
