Hamlet Stove User Guide
To remove ash use the supplied operating tool:
• Open the door of the stove, pausing briey when ajar so as to allow
the re to adjust to the increased air supply.
• Put the fork end of the operating tool into the slots of the ash pan
and remove from the ash pit chamber.
• Empty the ash into a suitable container and replace the ash pan into
the stove, withdraw the operating tool and close the re door.
Warning: The ash can be very hot. Care must be taken not
to burn hands or household objects with falling embers.
Empty only into a metal container. Even if the ash appears
cold, red-hot embers may be concealed and could easily
start a re or cause an injury.
7 Further information for multi fuel stove
owners
7.1 Multi fuel or Flexifuel grates
The grate in your Hamlet stove comprises of a series of reciprocating
cast iron bars seated on a pivoted comb. These should come
pre-assembled in your new stove.
All bars in the grate are identical, but every other bar is turned 180
degrees, with the ends of the bars marked "H" sitting on the high sections
of the comb, and the ends marked "L" sitting on the low sections.
The riddling lever, either on the side or front of your stove, can be
operated with the stove operating tool to riddle ash into the ash pan below.
Only riddle the stove with the door closed unless your stove requires you
to open the door to access the riddling mechanism. Stop riddling once red
embers begin to fall into the ash pan.
After extended use it may be necessary to replace some of the grate
bars. Periodic inspection of the bars is recommended and any damaged
bars should be replaced. Also check for obstructions that may prevent the
operation of the riddling mechanism.
