RE-FUELLING ON TO A LOW FIREBED
If there is insufficient burning material in the firebed
to light a new fuel charge, excessive smoke can
occur. Refueling must be carried out on to a suffi-
cient quantity of glowing embers that will allow the
new fuel charge ignite in a reasonable period. if
there are too few glowing embers in the fire bed add
suitable kindling to prevent excessive smoke.
Riddle the fire by connecting the grate operating tool
onto the riddling knob located at the bottom front of
the stove, then gently pull and push the riddling knob
until all dead ash has fallen through into the ashpan.
Before opening the door, open the spin valve by
turning it anti-clockwise, as this will help to eliminate
any smoke or fly ash resident in the combustion
chamber. Add fuel to fire, close fire door and re-set
spin valve to required setting after flame has estab-
lished. (See Fig.8)
DISPOSAL OF ASH
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a
tight fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should
be on a non-combustible floor or on the ground well
away from all combustible materials pending final
disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in
soil or other wise locally dispersed they should be
retained in the closed container until all cinders have
thoroughly cooled.
REMEMBER COAL GASES ARE TOXIC.
MONTHLY MAINTENANCE
Remove the firebars by lifting them clear of the fire
fence retainers.
Vermiculite fire lining are highly resistant to temper-
ature but are easily broken and must be handled
with care.
To access the flue pathways, remove the vermiculite
baffle by raising it gently on one side to make room
to remove the vermiculite side brick on that side.
Repeat for the opposite side and then remove the
vermiculite baffle.
Then remove the steel baffle by lifting the back edge
of the back brick and sliding it forward allowing the
back edge drop down for ease of removal. Remove
the back brick and clean the internal of the stove and
all clean the baffles and bricks prior to them being
refitted.
Remove the ashpan and clean the surrounding area
where a build of ash may occur and impede fitting of
the ashpan.
DE-ASHING
Never allow ashpan to over fill as it will cause dam-
age to firebars.
Open the fire door and remove ashpan using the
operating tool. Close the fire door. When the ash is
disposed of, replace the empty ashpan. (See Fig.9)

SLOW BURNING
Slow burning will cause the window glass to black-
en and should not be used for a long period.
Opening the air controls will increase the heat out-
put and should remove most of the soot deposits
from the glass. For slow burning setting open the
spin valve so that it is approx 1/4 turn open. Slow
burning is not possible on smoke exempted appli-
ances and is not generally recommended as it pro-
duces excessive smoke.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
CHIMNEY CLEANING
Chimney and connector should be cleaned at least
twice a year. Once before heating season and once
after.
The chimney connector and chimney should be
inspected at least monthly during the heating sea-
son to determine if a creosote build-up has
occurred. Remove the vermiculite baffle and side
bricks,remove the steel baffle resting on the air box
casting and the rear vermiculite brick, then remove
the rear vermiculite brick before chimney cleaning.

FUEL OVERLOADING
For smoke control areas the maximum fuel load of
1.2 kg of seasoned wood logs must not be exceed-
ed. Overloading can cause excess smoke.
