Riddler grate locks up when
burning solid fuels:
When burning solid fuels like
smokeless coal, the grate must
always be kept in the open
position. The grate can be riddled
by oscillating the grate back and
forth without excessive force
being used. The grate is not
designed to fully close when
burning solid fuels. If the grate
jams it may be due to a foreign
particle like a stone or nail
jamming the riddler action. To
clear a jam, let the stove
completely cool down, remove the
cast iron firebox side plates and
remove the riddler bars starting
at the front. Clear any ash and
particles and reassemble the
riddler assembly. The problem will
usually be solved by this process.
Glass blackens excessively:
If the stove is fitted correctly
and the correct lighting and
operation of the stove is adhered
to, blackening of the glass should
always burn off after a period of
full output. A poor draught and or
the use of wet or improper fuel
will often lead to excessive glass
blackening. Often clean glass
operation will be attained with a
little experience of operation.
Using a ceramic cooker cleaner for
instance “Mr Muscle oven cleaner”
is excellent at cleaning the glass.
Please refer to manufacturer’s
instructions on these products for
proper and safe use.
Chimney fire:
If the stove and chimney are kept
clean, no fire should occur. If
however it does happen, close the
stove damper fully, close the stove
door tightly. Only once the fire in
the stove and chimney has gone out
should the stove be opened and the
stove and chimney cleaned
thoroughly. If the fire is
substantial and doesn’t extinguish,
the fire brigade should be called.
After a bad chimney fire, expert
help should be sought to have the
chimney examined for any damage
before the stove is used again.
Freezing:
If there is any reason whatsoever
as to believe that any part of the
piping system may be frozen, do not
use the stove.
