CHAMBER DAMPER CAUSES THE FIRE TO SMOKE,
IT SHOULD BE OPENED GRADUALLY UNTIL THE
SMOKING STOPS.
To reduce top heat in the oven adjust the cooker/boiler
damper knob gradually away from symbol ‘C’. The oven
may be cleaned with a stiff wire brush, when it is very hot.
OVEN TEMPERATURES:-
HOT
220º-260ºC (400º-500ºF)
MODERATE
150º-200ºC (300º-400ºF)
SLOW
90º-150ºC (200º-300ºF)
It is not possible to control this oven, but during the
course of roasting, sufficient heat input permits
simmering of dishes that have been taken from the
roasting oven.
OVEN TEMPERATURES:-
Idling - 95ºC min.
During cooking - 135ºC max.
During the cooker idling periods, the oven is ideal for
heating plates and keeping food warm.
When burning coke, anthracite, other smokeless fuels,
logs or peat, the appliance flueways should be cleaned
on a regular four weekly basis.
When burning bituminous coal, cleaning should be done
at weekly intervals.
Prolonged soot formation may result in flueways
becoming blocked and could give rise to the release of
carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas into the room.
Failure to ensure clean flueways, flue pipes and bends
may lead to emission of dangerous gases and an inferior
performance from your appliance.
Cooker Flueway
- Allow the fire to burn out, open the
flue chamber damper to its maximum and remove the
flue chamber door.
Turn the cooker/boiler knob ‘C’.
Brush the soot or fly ash from the flue pipe allowing it to
fall onto the top of the oven. Fig. 11.
Remove the hotplate plug and rake the deposits forward,
pushing them into the firebox. Figs. 12 & 13.
Boiler Flueway
- Set the cooker/boiler damper knob to
‘H’ and remove boiler cleaning cover in top plate adjacent
to boiler thermostat control knob.
Lift out exposed boiler cleaning plate and brush near
boiler flueways up and down allowing debris to fall into
the firebox. Fig. 14.
Clean boiler flue outlet by inserting brush horizontal at
right hand of boiler aperture below top plate.
Push brush above and below the boiler damper so that
flash etc. is pushed onto oven top. Insert rake through
hotplate plug aperture and pull deposits into firebox (after
