Rope-
Check the rope around the door. If rope is
becoming detached, use Hunter Stoves rope glue to
reattach it. If the rope is in a poor condition, a
replacement rope kit may be ordered from the
Hunter Stoves spares range.
Chimney & Flue Ways-
It is important that the
chimney, flue ways and any connecting flue pipe are
swept regularly. This means at least once a year for
smokeless fuels and at least twice a year for wood
and other fuels.
The baffle will need to be removed from its supports
in order to sweep the chimney (see ‘Removing
internal components’ instructions).
Only wire-centred sweeps’ brushes fitted with a
guide wheel should be used.
If it is not possible to sweep all parts of the chimney
through the appliance, ensure there is adequate
access to cleaning doors.
Periods of Prolonged Non-Use
-
If the stove is to be
left unused for a prolonged period of time then it
should be given a thorough clean to remove ash
and unburned fuel residues. To enable a good flow
of air through the appliance to reduce condensation
and subsequent damage, leave the air controls fully
open.
If the appliance has been unused for a long period
of time, such as during the spring and summer
months, a competent person should check the
chimney for potential obstructions before lighting
the stove.
Gaskets-
all gaskets used on this appliance are
produced from a heat resistant material called
Manniglas. The glass gasket will have to be replaced
when a new piece of glass is fitted as the gaskets
become brittle after firing the stove. Over time you
may find that the gasket changes colour. This is due
to reduction in the pigment used in the manufacture
of the product and no cause for concern.
