minutes, please advise the customer of this. If any part of the OXY Pilot is damaged the
entire unit must be replaced. Do not attempt to bend or alter the flame head,
thermocouple or aeration hole. Use only genuine spare parts as similar looking parts from
other appliances may well give different or inferior performance and could lead to a
hazard.

SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS
As with all gas appliances the unit must be serviced at least once per year, preferably at
the beginning of the heating season.
All servicing must be carried out by a qualified
service person.
Before commencing any servicing, ensure that the gas is turned off to the appliance and
that the appliance is cool.
Cleaning – If required the casing should be wiped with a cloth dampened in soapy water.
The glass may be cleaned with any non-abrasive cleaner such as ‘hob brite‘.
Lift the cast front and the decorative frame to remove. Unscrew the four nuts holding the
glass, remove and place thoughtfully to avoid damage or injury.
Carefully remove the front and rear coal sets and clean the burner and associated parts
using a vacuum cleaner. Take particular care to remove all debris around the pilot light.
The logs and backing ‘brickwork’ contain refractory fibre (RCF). Excessive exposure to
these materials may cause temporary irritation to the eyes, skin and respiratory tract;
consequently, it makes sense to take care when handling these parts to ensure that the
release of dust is kept to a minimum. We recommend the use of a HEPA filtered vacuum
to remove any dust and soot accumulated in the heater before and after working on it.
When replacing these articles, they should not be broken up, but sealed in heavy duty
polythene bags labelled ‘RCF Waste’, which may be disposed of at a tipping site licensed
for industrial waste. Normal hygiene rules of not smoking, eating or drinking in the work
area should be followed.
Disconnect the gas supply to the appliance.
Undo the two nuts holding the burner assembly in the chassis. Remove the burner tray
and examine it for general condition. Discoloration of the burner surface is normal.
Clean around the air inlet, removing all lint in the area of the injector and ensuring the
pilot light aeration hole and flame head are clean. Injectors
–
Only original manufacturer’s
injectors must be used. Identification is as follows: Natural Gas (G20 / G25) - 92/300
Propane (G31) - 92/90 should the oxypilot system need to be replaced, the original
manufacturer’s parts must be used.
Controls – The GAS CONTROL IS FACTORY SET AND NORMALLY NEEDS NO ADJUSTMENT.
Check for smooth operation of the gas valve. Remove all covers; check the tightness of
the thermocouple connection into the valve, the condition of the piezo and ignition leads.
Examine the fire casing, the firebox and catalytic converter for obvious signs of damage or
degradation. Clean out any dirt or dust accumulated in the bottom of the fire. Reassemble
in reverse order.
Replace burner into chassis and reconnect to the gas supply. Test all joints for leaks.
