The fibre door gasket around the inside edge of the door
provides an air tight seal. Check this regularly and remove
any ash or wood particles gently with a soft brush. Replace
the gasket once a year.

To clean, use a soft brush. The stove body can be repainted
or touched up using Dovre high temperature resistant stove
paint.

You may notice a build up of deposits on your glass
particularly if the stove has been used for long periods at low
temperature. A hot brisk fire will normally cure this problem
but if the problem persists, check the quality of your wood
and/or chimney. It is always recommended to run your stove
hard, after an overnight burn. From time to time, the glass can
be cleaned using Dovre CERACLEAN. Never use water or
abrasive pads to clean the glass-especially whilst the glass is hot.
A N N U A L M A I N T E N A N C E
At the end of the heating season, thoroughly clean the inside
of the stove and adjoining flue pipe.
Arrange for your chimney sweep to inspect and clean the
chimney.

If smoking occurs when the stove door is opened, it is a sign
that the flue draught is inadequate. Mostly this condition is
caused by burning unseasoned wood and it usually indicates
that the combustion temperature is too low. To overcome a
weak draught, ensure your wood is dry and build a hot fire,
leaving the air control lever in the fully open position. If the
problem persists, arrange for your chimney to be expertly
checked for design or construction faults. In some instances,
down draught conditions will exist and it may be necessary
to fit an anti down draught device to the top of the
chimney.

This is usually caused by either,
•WOOD WHICH IS TOO SMALL IN DIAMETER
•THE USE OF SOFTWOODS
•EXCESSIVE CHIMNEY DRAUGHTS
•DOOR GASKET SEAL WORN OUT
Use only hardwood logs approximately 10cms in diameter
and close the air control to the fully closed position.
As chimney draughts vary with different installations it will
be necessary to experiment with the position of the air
control when set for overnight burning. The normal time on
a full load of hardwood is approximately 8 hours.
NOTE: If the appliance is operated for overnight burning,
the glass will not stay clean.

see fig 5.
The door of the Dovre 700CBW is fully adjustable to ensure
air tightness and correct alignment. To make adjustments,
use the following procedure.
Loosen the two hex headed screws located on the right
outside front of the firebox. To achieve a tighter door seal,
the adjustable hinge plate may be moved forward or
backward from the top and/or bottom. Horizontal
adjustment can be made firstly by loosening the two hex
headed screws on the hinge plate followed by adjusting the
set screws. Tightening the top screw will raise the door if it
sags and does not latch smoothly. Loosening the top screw
will lower the opposite edge if the door is too high. Adjusting
both set screws will re-position the door to the left or right
for correct alignment.
After adjustments have been made, tighten the two hex
headed screws on the hinge plate, taking care not to over
tighten.
The door latch may be adjusted in a similar manner.

HEARTH REQUIREMENT
The positioning of the appliance and the size and type of
hearth are governed by Building Regulations for Class 1
appliances. The Building Regulations state that the hearth
must extend at least 30cms to the front of the appliance and
15cms to the sides. If in doubt, expert advice should be
sought from your local building inspector.
CONNECTION TO THE CHIMNEY
If an existing masonry chimney is installed, the appliance
should be connected to the chimney using 150mm diameter
316 grade 1mm stainless steel or good quality vitreous enamel
flue pipe. It is important to ensure that the connection to the
chimney is carried out in such a way that any soot or ash is
allowed to fall unhindered back into the appliance or flue T-
section. see fig 6.
