INTRODUCTION
SAFETY
Safety is the most important consideration when using and installing your stove. If not installed and used
correctly, a house fire could result. Installation must comply with relevant national and local Building
Regulations and fire safety standards.
IN THE EVENT OF CHIMNEY FIRE, EVACUATE THE PROPERTY AND CALL THE EMERGENCY SERVICES.
Your stove will be heavy, and care needs to be taken when lifting - 2 people will normally be required to lift.
UNPACKING
Your stove will have several of its components stored inside the stove itself for transportation.
The flue spigot can also be bolted to the flue outlet – the stove has two options for flue outlet – one on the
top and one at the rear. - Most people use the top outlet but depending on where you intend to position the
stove in relation to your chimney, you may wish to use the rear outlet – in this case, remove the blanking
plate at the rear and secure into the top outlet instead.
Underneath the grate will also be an ash-pan which will require regular emptying.
You will also find a glove which must be used when opening the door or when adjusting air vents when the
fire is hot.
