OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
In situations where it is not possible to sweep through the appliance
the installer will have provided alternative means, such as a flue
access door.
After clearing any soot from within the stove, replace the baffle (see
Fig. 3 ).
It is important to use the correct flue brush for the flue size, different
types of sweep’s brushes are available to suit different flue.
For prefabricated insulated flues the manufacturers instructions with
regard to sweeping should be consulted.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
Fire Will Not Burn
Check that:
a) the air inlet is not obstructed in any way,
b) flues and flue are clear,
c) a suitable fuel is being used,
d) there is an adequate air supply into the room,
e) If an extractor fan is fitted, that it is not causing lack of flue draft
when operating.
f) there is sufficient draw in the flue. Once the flue is warm a draught
reading of at least 1.25 mm (0.05 in.) water gauge (12Pa) should be
obtained.
Blackening of Door Glass
Differences in flue draughts mean that the best settings of the air
controls will vary for different installations. A certain amount of
experimentation may be required, however the following points
should be noted and with a little care should enable the glass to be
kept clean in most situations:
a) Wet or unseasoned wood, or logs overhanging the front fence will
cause the glass to blacken.
b) The airwash relies on a supply of heated air to keep the glass clean,
therefore, when lighting the stove allow the firebed to become well
established before closing the air control. This may also be necessary
when re-fuelling the stove.
c) When re-fuelling keep the fuel as far back from the front fence as
possible, do not try to fit too much fuel into the firebox
d) Do not completely close the air control.
It is always more difficult to keep the glass clean when running the
stove very slowly for long periods.
If blackening of the glass still occurs check that all flue connections
and the blanking plate are well sealed. It is also important that the flue
draw is sufficient and that it is not affected by down-draught. When
the flue is warm a draught reading of at least 1.25 mm (0.05 in.)
water gauge (12Pa) should be obtained. Some blackening of the glass
may occur below the level of the fuel retainer. This will not obscure
the view of the fire or affect its performance.
Fume Emission
Warning Note: Properly installed and operated this appliance will
not emit fumes. Occasional fumes from de-ashing and re-fuelling
may occur. Persistent fume emission is potentially dangerous and
must not be tolerated. If fume emission does persist, then the
following immediate actions should be taken:
a) Open doors and windows to ventilate the room and then leave
the premises.
b) Let the fire out and safely dispose of the fuel from the appliance.
c) Check for flue or flue blockage, and clean if required.
d) Do not attempt to re-light the fire until cause of fuming has
been identified, if necessary seek professional advice.
The most common cause of fume emission is a flue blockage. For
your own safety the flue must be kept clean
Fire blazing out of control
Check that:
a) The door is tightly closed.
b) The air control slider is fully closed.
c) A suitable fuel is being used.
d) Door seals and air slide are intact.
Flue Fires
If the flue is thoroughly and regularly swept, flue fires should not
occur. However, if a flue fire does occur close the air control, and
tightly close the door of the appliance. This should cause the flue fire
to go out in which case the controls should be kept closed until the
stove has gone out. The flue should then be cleaned. If the flue fire
does not go out when the above action is taken then the fire brigade
should be called immediately. After a flue fire the chimney should be
carefully examined for any damage. Expert advice should be sought
if necessary
