IMPORTANT OPERATION / MAINTENANCE NOTES

Now that your Stanley Solid Fuel Stove is installed and no doubt you are looking forward to many comforts it
will provide, we would like to give you some tips on how to get the best results from your stove.

1. We would like if you could take some time to read the operating instructions/hints, which we are 

confident, will be of great benefit to you.

2. Do not burn fuel with a high moisture content, such as a damp peat or unseasoned timber.  This 

will only result in a build up of tar in the stove and in the chimney.

3.

IMPORTANT: 

The first few fires should be relatively small to permit the refractory to set proper

ly and season the stove. During these firings it is recommended to ventilate the room as an 
unpleasant (not toxic) odour may be emitted as the paint is completing curement.

4. Inspect the flue-ways of the stove weekly and ensure that there are no blockages.  Check flue

ways before lighting especially after a shut down period.  Please see chimney cleaning section.

5. Before loading fresh fuel into the firebox, riddle fully to remove all ashes. This will allow better and 

cleaner burning.  See Re-Fuelling section.

6. Never allow a build up of ashes in the ash pan, as this will cause the grate to burn out prematurely.  

Empty the ashpan when refuelling.

7. Avoid slow burning of damp or unseasoned fuel as this will result in tarring flue ways and chim-

ney i.e. peat or timber.

8. Allow adequate air ventilation to ensure plenty of air for combustion.

9. Do not burn rubbish/household plastic.

10. Clean the chimney at least twice a year.

11. Burning soft fuels such as timber and peat will stain the glass.  Regular cleaning will prevent 

permanent staining.  Clean with soapy water when cool.

12. Keep all combustible materials a safe distance away from unit, please see section for clearances

to combustibles.

13. Never use aerosol spray near the appliance when it is in operation.

14. For safety reasons never leave children or the elderly unaccompanied while stove is in use.  Use a 

fire guard.

15. Avoid contact with the appliance when in use as stove reaches very high operating temperatures.

16. This appliance should be regularly maintained by a competent service engineer.
