The stove is heavy and therefore it is strongly recommended that when lifting, it is undertaken by two people. Morsø 1430 weighs 72 kg. 1.2 Installing the stove The stove and chimney installations MUST comply to all current National and Local Building Re- gulations;...
1430 corner installation In situations where the stove is to be fitted into a brick or non-combustible recess, we recommend that the stove is installed with at least 10 cm clearance to the wall, this will allow room air to Rev.
1.5 The chimney Only if National or Local Regulations permit are you permitted to connect a stove into a chim- ney that is shared by another appliance. YOU MUST be aware of any applicable Regulations in this respect. The wood-burning stove must never been connected to a chimney to which a gas-burning stove or appliance is connected.

1.7 Connecting the stove to a masonry chimney A wall sleeve should be bricked securely into the wall of the chimney at the appropriate height and the stovepipe inserted centrally. The pipe must not extend into the actual chimney opening, but rather must reach only to the inside of the chimney aperture.
1.9 Draft conditions If smoke spillage occurs when the fire door is opened, it is probably due to poor chimney draft. This type of stove requires at least 12 pa of chimney draft to achieve satisfactory combustion and smoke spillage prevention. However, in cases where the stove door is opened too vigorously you could expect that slight smoke spillage may occur.

2.0 Firing the stove/Using your stove The heat output of your stove is regulated by means of 2 air inlets. The primary air supply, the air which passes through the shaking grate, is controlled by the bottom air control, while the secondary air supply, i.e.

2.1 Lighting and refuelling intervals A lot of air is needed when first lighting the stove. When starting with a totally cold stove, it may be helpful to leave the door ajar (2-3 cm) during the first few minutes; the secondary air intake should be fully open.

6. Refuelling of your stove should be done while there are still glowing embers in the bed. Spread the embers across the bottom, but concentrated most- ly towards the front of the stove. 7. Place two pieces of fuel weighing roughly 0.7 kg and measuring about 25 cm in length across the embers in one layer, with spacing of roughly 1 cm between the pieces of wood.

The stove door should normally be opened gently the first 2 - 3 centimetres, then you should wait until the pressure has equalised before opening the door all the way. This technique will prevent smoke from getting out, particularly when there is a poor draught. The stove door should never be opened when the stove is being fired vigorously.
3.0 Routine stove maintenance 3.1 External maintenance The surface of the stove is painted with heat-resistant Senotherm paint. If the stove is used too vigorously, the painted surface may take-on a greyish tinge. It is easily maintained by simply vacuuming the surface with a soft brush attachment and applying two light layers of paint. Morsø...

4.0 Alternative fuel types Your new Morsø stove is EN-approved for burning wood. However, the stove is capable of burning other solid fuels as manufactured smokeless coal or good quality anthracite (stove nuts). If you fire your stove with any fuel other than wood, it may help to use coal insert/fuel economisers (available for most models), which simply fit into the left and right sides of the firebox.
5.0 HETAS amendments Health and safety precautions Special care must be taken when installing the stove such that the requirements of the Health and Safety at Work Act are met. Handling Adequate facilities must be available for loading, unloading and site handling. Fire Cement Some types of fire cement are caustic and should not be allowed to come into contact with the skin.

sary to line the chimney then a flue liner suitable for solid fuel must be used in accordance with Building Regulations Approved Document J. Any existing chimney must be clear of obstruction and have been swept clean immediately before installation of the stove. If the stove is fitted in place of an open fire then the chimney should be swept one month after installation to clear any soot falls which may have occurred due to the difference in combustion between the stove and the open fire.

a) Open doors and windows to ventilate room. b) Let the fire out or eject and safely dispose of fuel from the appliance. c) Check for flue or chimney blockage, and clean if required. Do not attempt to relight the fire until the cause of the fume emission has been identified and corrected.
