ASH CLEARANCE
RIDDLING
REFUELLING
The ashpan should be emptied regularly before it becomes
too full. The most convenient time to remove the ash is just
before riddling the fire, since the ash will then be at its
coolest. Use the ashpan/riddling tool provided to remove the
ashpan. The fold up carrying handle may be held with a heat
proof glove and/or the door opening tool as shown in Fig. 2a.
Never allow the ash to accumulate in the ashpan so that it
comes in contact with the underside of the grate, as this will
seriously damage the grate bars. Ensure that the air inlet
damper is not prevented from closing by spilled fuel or ash.
Care should be taken to ensure that ash is cool before
emptying it into plastic liners or bins.
To make ash removal easier there is a special Charnwood ash
carrier available. There is also an optional lightweight ash
removal kit. These may be purchased from your supplier or,
in case of difficulty, directly from Charnwood.
Riddling twice a day is usually sufficient. The fire should be
riddled with both doors shut. Place the tool on the knob and
rotate between the horizontal and the 45° position several
times as shown in Fig. 3.
Caution: when riddling the grate using solid fuel do not go
beyond the 45° position as this can cause the grate to jam.
If jamming does occur then the fire should be allowed to burn
for approximately half an hour before riddling the grate again
as described above.
Too much riddling can result in emptying unburnt fuel into the
ashpan and should therefore be avoided. Clinker should
regularly be removed from the firebed.
After riddling, the grate should be put back into the solid fuel
position (the tool should be horizontal).
Keep the firebox well filled. The fuel may be sloped up from
the front firebars, but do not allow fuel to project over the
front firebars or damage to the glass may be caused when the
doors are closed.
