Health and Safety Guidance Special care must be taken when installing the stove such that the requirements of the Health and Safety at Work Act are met. Handling This appliance is very heavy. Adequate facilities must be available for loading, unloading and side handling. Fire Cement Some types of fire cement are caustic and should not be allowed to come into contact with the skin.
This is necessary for lighting the stove. Lighting the Stove Hunter Stoves recommends the top down lighting method for a cleaner and more convenient start. Ensure the air control is in the fully open position, and the internal grate is fully closed.
Adding Wood Only refuel when fire has died down to embers. Ensure that the wood you are using has a moisture content of less than 18% (we recommend 12-15% to ensure an efficient burn). When refuelling open all the air controls fully and the damper (if fitted). Open the door slowly by releasing the handle and allowing to stay like this for 5 to 10 seconds.
If the rope is in poor condition, a replacement rope kit may be ordered from the Hunter Stoves Group spares range. Gasket Tape The glass gasket tape (3) will have to be replaced when a new piece of glass (4) is fitted as the self-adhesive tape is stuck onto the glass.

Recommended Fuels Hunter Stoves Group recommend that only hardwood logs with a moisture content of less than 18% should be burnt on this appliance. Burning wet or unseasoned wood will create excess smoke emissions, tar deposits in the stove and chimney and will not produce a satisfactory heat output.
Aerosols Do not use an aerosol spray on or near the stove when it is alight. Operating The Stove Warning! – This Appliance will be hot when in operation and due care should be taken. We advise that suitable gloves, or the operating tool is used when operating the air control, and when opening the door.
TROUBLESHOOTING Smoke This can happen for a variety of reasons e.g cold air trapped in chimney/flue. As cold air is denser, this causes smoke to be forced back down the chimney. We recommend trying to heat the chimney before lighting for example, placing a fire-lighter on top of the kindling.
This is needed in the event of a claim during the warranty period. Only genuine Hunter Stoves spare parts or consumables can be used in the servicing and maintenance of the appliance during any standard or extended warranty period. These can be sourced from your authorised supplier directly.
