OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
5
Take care to only burn good quality fuels in order to obtain the
greatest efficiency and to maintain the life of the appliance.
Wood
Only dry well seasoned wood logs should be burnt on this appliance
as burning wet unseasoned wood will give rise to heavy tar deposits
in the stove, on the glass and within the chimney. For the same
reason hard wood is better than soft wood. Burning wet unseasoned
wood will also result in considerably reduced outputs. The wood
logs should be cut and split and then left to season in a well
ventilated dry place for at least one year but preferably two years
before use and should have a moisture content of less than 20%.
The maximum log size to be used is 300mm (13.7 inches) long,
75mm (3 inches) in diameter.
Peat
Ensure that the peat is well dried before use. Burning wet peat will
give rise to heavy tar deposits and reduced outputs. Peat is not
permitted to be burnt in smoke control areas.
GENERAL
Before lighting the stove, check with the installer that the work and
checks described in the Installation Instructions have been carried
out correctly and that the chimney has been swept, is sound and free
from any obstructions. The stove is not suitable for use in a shared
flue system.
Remember that the stove will be hot and that it is made from hard
materials – ensure that you have good balance before operating the
fire.
Do not use an aerosol spray on or near the stove when it is alight.
There is a risk of explosion or flash ignition of the spray.
When using the stove in situations where children, aged and/or
infirm persons are present, a fireguard must be used to prevent
accidental contact with the stove. The fireguard should be
manufactured in accordance with BS 8423:2002.
The stove is suitable for intermittent operation.
DOOR OPERATION
The door handle has been carefully designed so that in normal use it
may be operated using bare hands. However, if you need to open
the doors when the fire is running at maximum, then the use of the
glove provided may be required
FUEL
Please pay careful attention to the special points made with each
type of fuel as they will help you to get the best from your stove. It
must be remembered that only authorised fuels may be burnt in
smoke control areas on this stove. If you are not sure whether you
are in a smoke control area, please check with your Local Authority.
At first you may find it helpful to try several fuels to find the most
suitable. If you are unable to obtain the fuel you want, ask your
supplier, or an approved fuel distributor, to suggest an alternative.
PETROLEUM COKE IS NOT SUITABLE FOR USE ON THIS
APPLIANCE. ITS USE WILL INVALIDATE THE GUARANTEE.
Authorised Fuels
Only authorised smokeless fuels may be burned in smoke control
areas on this appliance. Your local fuel supplier or stove shop will be
able to advise you which fuels are available locally. A list of
authorised fuels can be found at:
