Assembly of the unit
The appliance is supplied assembled with the flue spigot in the top exit
position.
If you intend to install the appliance using a rear flue
connection, the blanking plate should be swapped over as follows:
• Remove the internal baffle plate
• Remove the blanking plate retaining bar internally.
• Remove the flue spigot from the top exit by removing the securing
bolts and rope seal.
• Refit the rope seal and flue spigot to the rear exit and secure with the
bolts. Seal with fire cement.
• Refit the blanking plate to the top exit using the rope seal and retaining
bolts.
Maintenance
The chimney should be swept at least once a year together with the flue
pipe connection. Care should be taken to ensure that there is not a build
up of soot on the baffle and in the airways of the appliance.
If the appliance has not been operated for long periods, the flue should
be inspected and swept before use to ensure there are no blockages
within the flue.
The grate should be cleaned regularly and the ashpan emptied daily.
NEVER ALLOW THE ASH IN THE ASHPAN TO OVERFILL ALLOWING ASH TO BE
IN CONTACT WITH THE UNDERSIDE OF THE GRATE. This will overheat the
grate and cause premature wear and distortion.
The internal vermiculite panels of the appliance should be checked
regularly for soundness. If any wear and tear is found, we recommend
these parts are replaced immediately.
Check the rope door seals are intact and are not worn. These should be
replaced on an annual basis to ensure the correct operation of this
appliance.
The glass can be cleaned using a soft damp cloth and window cleaner or
ACR stove glass cleaner (available from your local stockist)
Use only replacement parts recommended by the manufacturer.
We recommend that the appliance is serviced annually by a competent
engineer to ensure it's continued safe operation.
