INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS.

 

 

INTRODUCTION 
 
SAFETY 
 

Safety is the most important consideration when using and installing your stove. If not installed and used 
correctly, a house fire could result. Installation must comply with relevant national and local Building 
Regulations and fire safety standards. 
 
IN THE EVENT OF CHIMNEY FIRE, EVACUATE THE PROPERTY AND CALL THE EMERGENCY SERVICES. 
 
Your stove will be heavy, and care needs to be taken when lifting - 2 people will normally be required to lift. 

 
UNPACKING 
 

Your stove will have several of its components stored inside the stove itself for transportation.  
 
The flue spigot can also be bolted to the flue outlet 

 the stove has two options for flue outlet 

 one on the 

top and one at the rear. -  Most people use the top outlet but depending on where you intend to position the 
stove in relation to your chimney, you may wish to use the rear outlet 

 in this case, remove the blanking 

plate at the rear and secure into the top outlet instead. 
 
Underneath the grate will also be an ash-pan which will require regular emptying. 
 
You will also find a glove which must be used when opening the door or when adjusting air vents when the 
fire is hot.
