ASSEMBLING THE STOVE
Your new Hi-Flame stove is extremely heavy.
Always handle it with care and make sure that
you have additional strong help when you
move it. The door and door handle, should
not be used to grip the stove as they could be
damaged from supporting the stove’s weight.
If necessary, the fuel retaining bar can be
removed to help reduce the weight. Under no
circumstances should the door be removed as
this will invalidate your Hi-Flame Warranty.
• Unpack
Remove your new stove from its
recyclable packaging. Retain this until the
stove is installed and is fully operational.
Unfasten retaining wires and remove any
components from inside the stove.
• Inspect
Please inspect the stove to check
that it has not been damaged in transit –
never attempt to install a stove which has
been damaged. If damage is suspected then
report this immediately to your stove dealer.
• Baffle Plates
There are two baffle plates.
The lower baffle plate is made of vermiculite
and the upper baffle plate is made from plate
steel. Check the position of both baffle plates
to ensure that it they have not moved when
the stove was transported. Essentially they
should be securely positioned parallel to each
other. For more detailed information about fitting
and removing the baffle plates see page 32.

Fully familiarise yourself with the correct location
of the baffles by practising removing and re-fit-
ting them prior to the stove’s installation as you
will need to regularly check this area to avoid
potential soot build up and blockages.
• Flue Outlet Options
This stove is
already configured for the preferred top flue
outlet, however it can easily be switched to
the rear fitting flue option. To do this, firstly
remove the rear heat shield using the correct
sized allen key. The heat shield has a pre-cut
flue outlet aperture which can be removed by
using a junior hacksaw blade to carefully cut
through the small retaining links. Next remove
the rear flue outlet closure plate at the back
of the firechamber, being careful not to damage
the gasket seal or the bolts. Remove the top
flue collar, again being careful not to damage
the gasket seal or bolts. Swop over the flue
collar and closure plate ensuring that both
make a perfect all-round seal with the stove
body. Lightly lubricate all bolts with machine
oil to avoid damaging the screw threads. Fi-
nally, re-attach the rear heat shield.Your stove
is now ready for installation.
• Moving
Do not drag the stove. Always lift it
to finally position it and use strong help. Alter-
natively it may be possible to place the stove
on heavy-duty plastic sheeting or thick floor
covering to slide the stove into position, being
careful not to damage any finished hearth or
floor surfaces with trapped grit or debris.
Remove the pre-cut
aperture on the rear heat
shield to access the
optional rear flue outlet
