regularly, a proprietary scratch-resistant stove glass
cleaning gel or spray, which can be supplied by your
stove dealer, applied with a soft cloth, should be
sufficient to keep the glass in pristine condition. Make
sure the glass is cold before you apply such cleaners,
as applying a cold solution to hot glass could create
a thermal shock within the glass causing the glass to
crack. Also make sure that all traces of the cleaning
fluid have been removed and the glass is thoroughly
dry as any residue can be ‘baked’ on causing unsightly
smearing.
• Replacing Glass
Never use your stove if it has
cracked or missing glass. Your Precision dealer can
quickly supply you with a new piece of heat-resistant
glass should you ever need it – just let them know
the stove name and model number. Only use
heat-resistant glass as this is made to withstand
temperatures of up to 800ºC.
Remove the screws and sprung clamp washers from
each corner and place them in a safe place. Always
use the correct sized Phillips crosshead screwdriver
and use releasing oil if the screws prove difficult to
remove. Be careful not to dislodge the ribbon seal. If
this is damaged or more than a year old then replace
it completely.
The resilience of a new seal will provide a much-need-
ed expansion gap between the door and the glass
clamp to help prevent the glass from
cracking as it expands. New ribbon seal can be held
in place with rope seal glue which will be available
from your dealer. Lubricate the screws and holes and
reverse the process, being careful not to over-tighten
the screws and clamps in case you break the glass.
• Paint Finish Your stove has been finished with
heat-resistant paint and is very easy to maintain.
Regularly remove ash and dust from surfaces with a
soft cloth or brush. To maintain the original paint
finish you can use traditional ‘stove black’ polish
which your Graphite dealer can supply. Make sure the
stove is cold and use protective gloves as this type of
polish can cause deep staining to the skin and
fingernails.
Repair worn or scratched surfaces with a proprietary
heat-resistant spray paint made specially for stoves,
also available from your stove dealer. Never use an
aerosol spray on, or near, the stove when it is burning
or it is hot.
• Door Rope Seals
It is important that you maintain
a tight door seal as this prevents unwanted air leaking
into the fire chamber and helps make the Primary and
Secondary Air more effective in controlling the fire.
When the stove is cold, to check the door stove seal,
place strips of paper between the door and ‘door
frame’ and shut the door. If you have to pull hard to
remove these or they tear, then you have an effective
door seal. If these can be easily removed or if they
slide around you will need to replace the door seal.
Your new Graphite stove is supplied with a spare rope
seal for the door. To replace, carefully remove the old
seal and completely clean the seal channel of debris
and old glue. Use liberal amounts of proprietary heat-
resistant fire rope glue and glue both ends to ensure
a well-sealed joint. Also replace the middle horizontal
rope that seals the ash pan chamber from the fire
chamber to maintain a good Primary Air flow.
The recommended rope seal diameter is 12mm.
• Air Supply Controls There are three air supply
controls on the Graphite Boiler stove (see page 5) and
you need to check that these remain fully functional
to ensure the best operation of your stove. Set the
Primary Air control wheel to fully open and apply a
few drops of machine oil (there is no need to remove
the knob).
Machine oil can also be applied with an aerosol to
the Secondary Air slider and control knob at the top
of the stove as well as the Thermostat flap towards
the back of the stove. Work the oil in by opening and
closing the controls a few times. Be careful to protect
the hearth and fireplace and any other potentially
porous surfaces from the oil and do not use the aero-
sol when the stove is in operation.
You may experience light some fumes from the stove
when you re-light it as any excess oil is burned off.
