OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
DE-ASHING (RIDDLE)
It is necessary to maintain an ash layer on the
upper surface of the grate bars, in order to protect
them so de-ashing should cease as soon as the first
red embers drop into the ash pan. Further de-ash-
ing will cause heat build-up under the grate, which
will considerably shorten its life. This operation
should be carried out with the doors closed to pre-
vent dust escaping into the room.
•Move up and down vigorously the riddling
lever (ash will fall into the ash pan beneath
the grate). See Fig. 20.
•When de-ashing is complete re-set grate to
previous position.
• Empty the ash pan.
Note: Do not force the riddling lever
.
ADJUSTING AIR INLET CONTROLS
The operating tool can also be used to adjust the air
inlet control knobs relating to the airwash and the
primary air inlets. Use the fork end of the tool,
place side onto the knob and push un the desired
direction as in Fig. 22 & 23.
