Fitting the Baffle Plate 

1.

 

Feed baffle plate through the door opening with front edge folded up, feeding plate all the way to the rear 

of the heater.  

2.

 

Lift front over Pin A and slide towards front of heater. 

3.

 

Lift rear so baffle plate is horizontal and move towards back of heater. 

4.

 

Lower over Pin B. 

5.

 

Baffle plate must be sitting on Pins A & B. 

Placement of Cast Iron Liners into firebox 

The rear cast iron liner is to be positioned to the rear with rib and logos facing into the firebox. Side cast liners 

ar to be positioned on the appropriate side and interlock into the rear cast plate. Fire bricks can then be installed.

 

Placement of Fire Bricks into firebox 

Fire bricks must be sitting flat on the bottom of the firebox, covering base. 

Placement of Ash Deflector into firebox 

After cast iron plates and fire bricks are fitted correctly into position, slide ash deflector inbetween the cast plates 

and down in front of the  fire bricks. The deflector should be positioned such that the 100mm leg is placed within 
the firebox, and the 50mm leg faces towards the door to prevent ash build up on the door.

Elevated installation 

Masonry 

 

In some instances it may be desirable, or required that the Jindara Hamersley Insert wood heater be installed into 

an existing fireplace which is raised above a combustible floor. In this situation, the minimum required hearth can 

be reduced to the corresponding elevated height dimensions mentioned in Table 1.  

Scenario 1 – If the appliance is installed onto a non-combustible fireplace (or step), which is 120mm above a 
combustible floor, the minimum required hearth depth is 475mm. (refer Table 1.) 

Scenario 2 – If the appliance is installed onto an existing non-combustible fireplace (or step) 80mm above a 

combustible floor, and the existing fireplace (or step) extends 350mm in front of the appliance’s fascia, some 

additional hearth maybe required.  
 

Using Table 1, the closest minimum height related to 80mm is 75mm. The reflective hearth depth required for a 

raised installation of 80mm is 525mm.  

For this installation to conform with AS/NZS2918:2001, a minimum 175mm of 18mm thick villaboard (or similar 

non-combustible material –Bellis Board, tiles etc.) must extend in front of the fireplace (or step) to achieve a 
combined hearth depth of 525mm. It must also include a minimum overall width of 1000mm. 

ZCV 

It is essential that the information contained in the ZCV installation notes (page 5) are followed to ensure safe and 

correct installation is achieved. By raising the ZCV (with the Jindara Hamersley Insert inside it), the minimum hearth 

depth in front of the appliance fascia can be reduced in accordance with Table 1. In the instance the ZCV is raised, 

any structured used to support the appliance must be constructed of non-combustible material and withstand the 

combined weight of the Jindara Hamersley wood heater and ZCV. 

When the appliance is raised 209mm or more above a combustible floor, a 300mm non-combustible hearth or 

floor protector is always required as per AS/NZS 2918:2001.
