SERVICING (continued)
7. Check the area behind the firebox for rubble accumulation and remove. If debris is
excessive, initiate remedial work on the flue.
8. Check the flue with smoke pellet for correct operation.
9. Re-fit the firebox using new seals where necessary.
10. Strip off the burner pipes and clean thoroughly.
11. Clean out the injector and pilot assembly. DO NOT attempt to dismantle the pilot unit.
12. Ensure the injector is aligned squarely with the venturi tube. Re-assemble and re-fit
the burner tray.
13. Re fit and replace the ceramics, using genuine spares where necessary.
14. Re-fit the decorative front.
15. Turn on the gas supply, and leak test.
16. Check any purpose provided ventilation is un-obstructed.
17. Light the fire and test for spillage.
18. Check setting pressure and safe operation of the appliance.
For specific servicing instructions, see the relevant sections.
CLEANING THE CERAMIC PARTS
Remove the firefront casting and place to one side. Remove the ceramic components. Gently
clean in the open air. Be careful not to create dust from the coals. Where necessary replace
damaged components with genuine spares. Seal scrap components in plastic bags and dispose
of at proper refuse sites as directed.
Re-fit the coals carefully by referring to the relevant section of these instructions.
REMOVING THE FIREBOX
Remove the firetray as previously described. Uncoil the fixing kit cables from the rear of the fire-
box, remove the screwed nipples and tensioning adjusters. The firebox can now be withdrawn
from the opening and outwards onto the protected hearth. Inspect the fireplace opening for
debris, and if excessive rectify the flue before proceeding further. Check the seal around the fire-
frame and replace if necessary. Refitting of the firebox is described in the relevant section.
DISMANTLING THE BURNER TRAY
Remove the tray as previously described. The pilot unit can be removed by undoing the tubing
nut, the thermocouple nut on the rear of the valve, lint arrestor, two securing screws, and lifting
away. Remove the tubing nut from the valve end of the pilot pipe, and blow through to dislodge
any debris that may be present. Clean the exterior of the pilot assembly with a soft brush and
blow through the flame ports on the pilot head. Check the aeration holes are free from lint or dirt.
The pilot assembly is a non-serviceable item, and should not be taken apart. The aeration hole
must be absolutely clear internally for proper operation. A thoroughly cleaned (inside and out)
oxypilot will cure a wide range of ignition faults.
Remove the two tubing nuts on the ends of the gas pipe to the injector elbow. Release the screw
through the supporting leg and lift assembly clear. The injector pipe can now be checked for
debris. Remove the nut retaining the injector elbow. Blow through the elbow to remove any
debris.
Remote Control Versions
- The valve is not field serviceable.
Manual Control Versions
- The valve is not field serviceable, apart from the pilot filter. Remove
the control knob by pulling it forwards, then remove the largest of the three screws on the face
of the valve. Slide the filter out and clean away any debris that may have accumulated. The filter
element should also be blown clean. This component should not require replacement, however if
signs of deterioration are evident then a genuine spare must be used. If a large amount of debris
is present in the filter then the pipework and control should be thoroughly cleaned before re-
assembly.
