OPERATION OF GRATE
Your stove is fitted with a multi-fuel grate (Fig. 18a and 18b) which will enable you to burn wood or solid fuel equally
effectively. It consists of a grate lever operating handle (shown in yellow), grate bars (shown in blue) and the grate link
bar (shown in pink). Once fuel is loaded on the grate the grate will remain where it has been
positioned). The grate is left with the bars closed for wood and slightly open for solid fuel,
DE-ASHING
Using the tool provided (shown in yellow) the grate is gently and NOT FORCEFULLY rotated clockwise to open and
rocked open and shut in order to de-ash. Once de-ashing is completed return the grate to the closed position .
Using a small movement will dislodge all but the largest clinkers through to the ashpan.
Too much riddling/poking can result in unburnt fuel being emptied into the ash pan and should be avoided. Any
clinkers should be regularly removed from the fire bed. The ashpan should be emptied regularly before it becomes too
full. Use the operating tool to handle the ashpan, taking care not to spill the ashes as there may well be hot embers
still glowing in the pan.
If the grate bars will not rotate easily DO NOT FORCE them but investigate the possible cause, i.e. clinker or nails
blocking movement or too much ash in the ashpan and in the bottom of the stove, and remedy as soon as possible.
“Tippy” ash caddies are available from your local stockist greatly assist in the removal of ashes from the house.

To ensure that the stove will not ‘overfire’ whilst the door is open, we would strongly recommend that de-
ashing is only undertaken when either the fuel load is almost exhausted, the stove is out or in a very low
state.
