1 General information
Make sure that your stove is installed by a qualified, knowledgeable and experienced installer
who is registered under one of the Competent Persons schemes such as HETAS.
The cladding and window of the stove can get very hot giving a risk of burns. We therefore
recommend that you install a guard for infants and elderly or infirm persons.
Never leave a burning stove unattended.
Always operate the stove with the combustion chamber door closed. The stove is provided with
a self-closing combustion chamber door, so that the door only has to be opened to light, load or
clean the stove.
The warranty on the stove is null and void if any structural change is made to it.
Your Woodfire stove has a one year manufacturer’s warranty, automatically extended to five
years if the stove has been correctly installed by a suitably qualified fitter and utilises a draught
stabiliser and back end protection in the form of a load unit.
1.1
Delivery
As soon as it is delivered, the stove must be carefully inspected and any damage must be noted
on the delivery note. Afterwards the damage must be reported immediately to the dealer.
When transporting the stove you must ensure that only safe, strong and approved carrying
methods are used. The stove may only be moved in a stable, standing position or slightly
inclined on a sack truck. A sack truck can only be used against the back of the stove. All parts of
the stove must be protected against damage or contamination during transport and installation.

Assembly instructions
Your stove should be installed by a qualified, knowledgeable and experienced installer who is
registered under one of the Competent Persons schemes such as HETAS.
The installer must do a thorough check of the appliance to ensure that it is in full working order
before it is installed.
2.1
Basic requirements for installation
When installing and operating the stove, make sure that all the relevant local, national and
European standards are adhered to.
The stove may only be installed in rooms suitable for such an appliance and where it can be
operated safely and maintained appropriately and may not be installed in areas in which
flammable or explosive substances and mixtures are processed, which could lead to an ignition
or explosion.
2.2
Installation
Before installing the stove, make sure that the floor on which the appliance is standing has
sufficient load capacity. Pay attention to the information on the weight and, if necessary,
ensure a sufficient weight distribution by utilising an appropriate hearth.
Please also observe the necessary measures for the fire protection of the installation floor.
The stove must be installed so as to be completely level and stable.
