Solid Fuels 
We recommend the majority of approved manufactured smokeless fuels. Household 
coal, which is ‘Smokey’ fuel, can also be used but note that different types will give 
different performances. Use as an incinerator is not recommended as fumes from plas-
tics etc will cause pollution to the atmosphere and will damage stoves internals. 
 

PETROLEUM COKE FUELS OR HOUSEHOLD WASTE SHOULD NOT BE BURNT 

ON THIS APPLIANCE 

 

Should any difficulties arise over fuel quality or suitability, consult your local supplier or 
the Solid Fuel Advisory Service. 
 
Safety Notes For Your Guidance 
FIRES CAN BE DANGEROUS –Always use a fire guard to BS6539 specification in the 
presence of children, the elderly of the infirm. 
Inform all persons the dangers of high temperatures during operation of appliance in-
cluding the stove pipe use operating tools provided. 
 
DO NOT OVER FIRE—it is possible to fire the stove beyond its design capacity, this 
could damage the stove, so watch for signs of overfiring—if any part of the stove starts 
to glow red, the fire is in an overfire situation, and the controls should be adjusted ac-
cordingly. Never leave the stove unattended for long periods without adjusting the con-
trols to a safe setting—careful air supply control should be exercised at all times. 
 
Warning—Fume Emissions 
Properly installed and operated, this appliance will not emit fumes. Occasional fumes 
from de-ashing and refuelling may occur. Persistent fume emission must not be toler-
ated. 
 
If fume emission does persist, then following immediate action should be taken— 

1. 

Open doors and windows to ventilate the room. 

2. 

Let the fire out, or eject and safely dispose of fuel from the appliance. 

3. 

Check for flue chimney blockage, and clean if required. 

Do not attempt to relight the fire until the cause has been identified. If necessary, seek 
professional advice. 

 

DO NOT FIT AN EXTRACTOR FAN IN THE SAME ROOM AS THIS APPLIANCE 

 
Seasonal Maintenance 
If the appliance is not to be used for any length of time, e.g. summer months, then it is 
recommended that the appliance is cleaned out thoroughly. Air slides should be lightly 
oiled and left partially open to allow circulation of air. Regular monitoring of internals 
will highlight condensation problems or water ingress. If these problems occur then the 
appliance needs drying and the cause of the problem investigating. It is advisable that 
after a seasonal shutdown the appliance is re-cleaned. Remove baffle plate, brick lin-
ings, check operation of grate, check flue for any possible blockages. It is advisable to 
have the chimney swept at least once or even twice per year. If the appliance is in con-

stant use, the use of bitumas coal or poor quality wood makes flues soot and tar up 
more frequently. 
Basic maintenance can be carried out by the appliance operator, i.e removal of baffle 
plate, bricks, grate, glass replacement and must be done when the appliance is cold. 
Any structural repairs, i.e. panel collar replacement or stove pipe must be carried out 
by a suitably qualified engineer. 
 

 

General Maintenance 

 

Baffle Plate 
This should be removed at least once a month to prevent any build up of soot or fly 
ash which could lead to blocked flueways and dangerous fume emission. If the baffle 
plate is removed the chimney/flueway can be swept through the appliance. 
 
Baffle Plate Removal and Replacement 
Note position before removal. To remove baffle plate, lift up and remove one side brick 
left or right. The baffle plate can now be manipulated out of the stove door opening. 
Remove the remaining back and side brick—as the bricks are free-standing no dam-
age can now occur due to bricks falling over.  
 
To replace, place rear brick in position and one side brick. Manipulate baffle into posi-
tion and fit remaining sode brick. Make sure all parts are located. 
 
Grate Removal 
The Brunswick has a single rotating grate operated by an attached riddling rod. To 
remove, unscrew control knob and rotate grate out of its guide hole. The centre grate 
can now be removed. To replace grate, reverse this procedure. Note position of grate 
riddling rod as it connects to grate. The hook on the end of the rod passes under and 
up through the arm hole on the grate. If the removal of the outer grate is required then 
the baffle plate, rear and side bricks will require removal. The outer grate will then lift 
out off it’s stops. 
 
Stove Body  
The stove is finished with a heat-resistant paint and this can be cleaned with a soft 
brush. Do not clean whilst the stove is hot, wait until it has cooled down. The finish can 
be renovated with a suitable brand of paint. 
 
Glass Panels 
Clean the glass panels when cool with a proprietary glass cleaner. Highly abrasive 
substances should be avoided as these can scratch the glass and make subsequent 
cleaning more difficult. Wet logs on heated glass, a badly aimed poker or heavy slam-
ming of the doors could crack the glass panels. The glass will not fracture from heat. 
 
Chimney 
Check your chimney each year before starting to use your stove for the winter. Birds 
may have nested in the chimney or the masonry may have cracked. Both chimney and
