MULTI GRATE
LIGHTING
Your Charnwood Cove is fitted with a multi grate to enable wood to
be burned and ash to be cleared. The grate has two positions:
1) In the open position the grate bars are vertical with gaps in
between allowing the primary combustion air to come up through
the grate and through the fuel bed.
2) In the closed position the grate bars are horizontal, allowing the
combustion air to come round the sides of the grate and over the top
of it. When in the closed position ash is able to build up on the grate
as is necessary for effective wood burning.
Movement of the grate from one position to the other is effected
using the door opening tool supplied as shown in Fig. 2. The grate is
put into the open position by moving the tool up until the handle is in
the 1 o'clock position. The grate is put into the closed position by
moving the tool down until the handle is in the 5 o'clock position. To
riddle the appliance the tool should be moved between the 1 o'clock
and 3 o'clock positions several times. When burning wood the ash
should be allowed to build up and riddling should only be carried out
once or twice a week.
The stove may be lit using dry kindling wood and paper or fire
lighters. Set the grate into either the closed position or the open
position as required. Place the paper, or fire lighters, and kindling on
the grate and cover with a few small dry logs. Open the air control
fully (see Fig. 1). Light the paper or fire lighters. Close the door until
the fuel is well ignited then load with fuel. Once the fire is up to
temperature the airwash system will begin to work, so allow the fire
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.
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.
FUEL
DOOR OPERATION
Only dry well seasoned wood 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 woods (such as Ash, Beech and Oak) are better than soft woods
(such as Pine and Spruce). Burning wet unseasoned wood will also
result in considerably reduced outputs. The wood 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.
This stove is not designed to burn household waste. For advice on
other fuels, please contact Charnwood.
The door handle has been carefully designed to be removed from the
stove during normal operation and re-fitted prior to loading and de-
ashing. However, if you need to open the door when the fire is
running at maximum then the additional use of a cloth or glove may
be required.
Take care not to touch the door as it will be hot when the fire is
burning. Turn the door handle anti-clockwise to open, and clockwise
to close.
PETROLEUM COKE IS NOT SUITABLE FOR USE ON THIS
APPLIANCE. ITS USE WILL INVALIDATE THE GUARANTEE.
Your Cove stove has been designed to work with the minimum
effort. If any operation - such as riddling the grate or opening and
closing the door - begins to require extra force then the cause must
be investigated and corrected to prevent damage being caused to the
stove.
Remember that the stove will be hot and is made from hard material.
Ensure that you have good balance before operating the fire.
This stove is capable of intermittent operation.
