2.8. 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.
First remove the two retainer grates (# 1, fig. 7), then
remove the side walls (# 2 & 3, fig. 7) and remove the
flue baffle (# 4, fig. 7).
Refit the parts in the reverse order (fig. 8).
If the chimney catches fire, you must cut off the flue
draught, close the doors and windows, hatches and
keys, remove the embers from the stove, stop up
the connection hole with wet cloths and call the Fire
Brigade.
DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR OF THE APPLIANCE
(OR AIR INLET) UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES
.
Chimney condition should be checked at least once
per year by a professional engineer.
