8.2 OPERATING THE APPLIANCE
The control handle is located in the centre of the appliance. The
control handle is marked as shown in figure 18.
The pilot is visible behind the centre of the burner.
Move the control handle fully right to the SPARK position, and hold
there for approximately ten seconds. Now release the control han-
dle and the pilot should stay alight. When the pilot light has estab-
lished, move the control handle left to the LOW flame setting. If the
pilot is extinguished during use, wait three minutes before repeating
the ignition procedure. To achieve the HIGH setting, move the
control handle left to the HIGH flame setting. The fire can also be
set to operate anywhere between HIGH and LOW by moving the control handle to an intermediate position.
To turn the fire OFF, move the control handle left fully to the position marked 'O'.
8.3 OPERATING PRESSURE
The pressure test point is located on the inlet restrictor elbow in the
centre of the burner as shown in figure 19.
Release the pressure test point screw, and attach a pressure gauge.
Light the fire on the HIGH setting. To commission the appliance, the
operating pressure must be in accordance with the figures stated in
section 2.0 of these instructions. The fire is factory set to achieve the
correct flow rates at the specified inlet pressure.
Any significant variation in the operating pressure could indicate a
supply problem. If the inlet pressure is too high, the gas supply
meter/governor may be set incorrectly.
This should be checked with the fire running and if necessary reset by
the gas supplier. If the operating pressure is too low, then check the
meter/governor pressure with the appliance running. If this is less than
the inlet pressure stated in section 2.0 of these instructions it will
need to be reset by the gas supplier. If the inlet pressure is too low, but the meter/governor pressure is acceptable, then a problem in
the supply pipework is to be suspected.
Upon satisfactory checking of the inlet pressure, turn the fire off, disconnect the pressure gauge and refit the test point screw. Light the
fire and check for gas soundness. In the event that the inlet pressure is not in accordance with the figures stated in the data section of
these instructions, the appliance must not be commissioned, and the problem investigated and rectified.
9.0 BRIEFING THE CUSTOMER
All instructions must be handed to the user for safekeeping. Show the customer how to light and control the fire.
After commissioning the appliance, the customer should be instructed on the safe use of the appliance and the need for regular servic-
ing. Frequency of service depends on usage, but MUST be carried out at least once annually.
Advise that cleaning of the fire may be achieved when the fire is cold using a damp cloth and mild detergent on most surfaces. Advise
that on first light up of a new appliance, initial curing of high temperature paint and burning off of lubricants may occur for the first few
hours of operation. During this period some smoke may be emitted from the outlet grille, this should be no cause for concern.
Accordingly, the room should be well ventilated with all windows and doors open during this period. During this period the appliance
may cause smoke alarms to sound. If this happens, reset the alarms, but do not remove the batteries. Recommend that a guard be used
for the protection of the young, pets, the elderly and the infirm. Advise the customer that the ventilation openings should not be blocked
or obstructed in any way. IMPORTANT; Show the customer where the battery compartment is and how to change the battery.
10.0 SERVICING
Isolate the fire from the gas supply. Ensure that the fire is fully cold before attempting service.
A suggested procedure for servicing is detailed below.
1. Lay out the dustsheet and tools.
2. Remove the decorative casting assembly. See section 7.1.
3. Remove the glass door assembly (4 screws) and clean carefully.
4. Inspect the burner, ceramics and the catalyst and clean if necessary with a soft brush.
5. Disconnect the gas supply.
6. Undo the two screws retaining the burner support brackets to the left and right hand side of the firebox.
7. Remove the burner unit, strip off the burner pipes and clean thoroughly.
8. Clean the injector, pilot assembly and the burner tube. Do not attempt to remove the pilot injector as this can cause damage.
9. Re-assemble components.
10. Turn on the gas supply and leak test. Check pilot and burner for good ignition.
11. Refit the glass door assembly, ensuring correct orientation and a good seal.
12. Refit the decorative casting assembly. Installation is reverse of section 7.1.
13. Check the purpose provided ventilation is un-obstructed.
14. Light the fire and test the operating pressures.
15. Check safe operation of the appliance by performing a combustion test as detailed in section 10.3.
For specific servicing instructions, see relevant sections.
