Maintaining & Servicing your Jindara
Catch Assembly

Retaining Screws
Cleaning your flue
Firstly and carefully remove cast iron plates and baffle system and put to one side. Close the heater door. Obtain a 180mm
flue brush from your local Jindara Dealer and proceed to the top of the flue. Remove the flue cowl. Slowly push the
brush down the flue until it stops. Pull the brush back out and repeat the process. Each time you do this you will notice
that the brush will go further down the flue until it reaches the bottom. The soot and creosote will fall down the flue and
into the firebox. Clean residue from firebox. Replace the baffle plate first followed by the cast iron liners.
Make sure you do the job well. The cleaner the flue the less chance there will be of the creosote sticking again. After you
replace the cowl, inspect the roof flashing for any damage that may have incurred whilst you were cleaning the flue.
Reseal the seal on the roof with roof and gutter silicon if required.
Cleaning the glass
Generally the only time you will possibly need to clean your glass is after a long overnight burn. If you find that you have
a wet sticky black film on your glass (creosote), it is better to burn the heater as normal for one load of wood. When the
wood has burnt down to a hot bed of embers, open the door and leave it wide open until the glass cools sufficiently to
be wiped with a damp cloth. This should clean all the white smoky film off the glass. Creosote on the glass is normally a
sign that you have tried to get too long an overnight burn or you have burnt excessively wet or green wood. If the film on
the glass won’t come off with a wet cloth, you can use wet ash from the ash bed as a cleaner or commercial products
such as Crystal Clear, Johnson Foam Clean or Windex.
To maintain an efficient and safe use of your Jindara Spectre, you may need to
adjust the door hinge and catch over the duration of its life.
Adjusting door catch
• Open door to gain access to catch.
• Using a 3mm Allen key, remove the two catch retaining screws and set aside.
• To tighten the latch, remove one shim. To loosen the latch, fit an additional shim.
• Additional shims are available from your Jindara dealer. Refer to figure 10-1.
• Once the desired setting has been achieved, re-fit the catch assembly using the
two retaining screws.
• Note that if an adequate seal cannot be achieved through the removal of one
shim, a replacement door rope may be required.
Adjusting door hinge
The door hinge defines the door alignment to the heater and the door catch,
as well as determining the amount of pressure applied to the main door rope
at the hinge side of the door.
To align door:
• Slightly loosen 2 x M8 Bolts securing the hinge to the heater. The upper
bolt should be loosened 1- 1+1/2 turns, while the lower bolt should only be
loosened 1/2 a turn.
• Align door horizontally by pivoting the door about the lower bolt. Note
that there is no provision for lateral adjustment of the door hinge position.
• Check that the lower fill panel is square to the firebox by measuring from the
base of the fascia to each end of the ash lip. Adjust the fascia as needed if
measurements are not equal.
• Check the alignment of the door by measuring vertically from the
underside of the door at each outer edge, to the base of the fascia, as per
figure 10-2. This measurement should be taken with the hinge bolts
tightened and with the door hanging under its own weight.
To adjust hinge shims:
• Open door and lift free of hinge, and place on a soft flat surface while servicing the hinge.
• Remove the door hinge and fasteners as shown in figure 12.
• Remove x1 hinge shim plate in order to tighten the seal of the door rope. The maximum number of shims permitted
behind the hinge is 2, fitted as standard.
• Fit door and re-align door to catch and firebox before fully tightening M8 bolts.
