to close. The stove is normally run with the doors shut.
Your Charnwood Island 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 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.
Light the Stove 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 thermostat control
fully (see Fig. 1.) Light the paper or fire lighters. Close the doors until

LIGHTING
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.
Your Island stove has been designed to work with the minimum
effort. If any operation - such as riddling the grate or opening and
closing the doors - 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 materials
- ensure that you have a good balance before operating the fire.
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.
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.
This stove is capable of intermittent or continuous operation.
This stove is intended primarily for burning wood. 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.
For advice on other fuels please contact Charnwood.
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 a cloth or
glove may be required.
Take care not to touch the doors as they will be hot when the fire is
burning. Turn the door handle clockwise to open, and anti-clockwise
