ASH REMOVAL
The ash pan should be emptied at least twice a day
or when the level of ash reaches the top of the ash
pan. On no account should the ash be allowed to
build up to touch the grate as this will greatly
shorten its life.
DE - ASHING
It is necessary to maintain an ash layer on the upper
surface of the grate bars, in order to protect them so
de-ashing should cease as soon as the first red
embers drop into the ash pan. Further de-ashing
will cause heat build-up under the grate, which will
considerably shorten its life. This operation should
be carried out with the doors closed to prevent dust
escaping into the room.
•Move up and down vigorously the riddling lever
(ash will fall into the ash pan beneath the grate).
•When de-ashing is complete re-set grate to
previous position.
•Empty ash pan.
Note: Do not force the riddling mechanism.
TO EMPTY THE ASH PAN
Open the fire door; Fit the fork end of the operating
tool into the ash pan and remove from the ash pit
chamber.
WARNING: The ash can be very hot. Empty only
to a metal container. Even if the ash appears cold,
red-hot pieces of ash may be concealed and could
easily start a fire or cause an injury. Replace the ash
pan and close ash door. Close the fire down.
CLINKER
The formation of clinker suggests that the unit is
being over-fired. Any clinker forming on the grate
should be removed when cold.
OVER-FIRING
Do not over fire your appliance. Using flammable
liquids or too much wood or firing the fire at
maximum for prolonged periods may result in
over-firing. If the chimney connector or casing
glows red it is being over-fired. If this occurs
immediately close all air inlets to the appliance to
reduce the air supply to the fire. Should a chimney
fire occur immediately close the appliance down.
Get everyone out of the house and call the fire
brigade. A chimney fire may cause structural
damage of the chimney. Do not use the appliance
until the chimney and connector have been
inspected and any damaged parts repaired or
replaced. This should be done by a competent person
such as a HETAS registered engineer.
CLEANING
IMPORTANT
Under some circumstances soot can quickly build
up on the throat plate and adjacent areas. The throat
plate should be removed and checked monthly, and
any debris stripped off. Similarly, clean the upper
surface of the firebox.
Refer to page 16 for instructions on throat plate
removal/inspection.
