Door Adjustment
The door is unlikely to become misaligned unless it is knocked and attempts at adjustment may
cause rather than solve a problem. Always consult your Coonara dealer before attempting any
adjustment to the door.
1. Remove door by opening fully and lifting door up off the hinge. (Freestanding models require
top panel to be propped up prior to lifting door).
2. Loosen the top & bottom screws securing the door hinge to the front of the firebox upright.
3. Move the hinge left or right as necessary and re-tighten the screws.
4. In some cases, to enable adequate adjustment, it may be necessary to also loosen the centre
to relocate the entire hinge.
5. Mark door sealing edge with coloured chalk and close the door. Re-open and check the door
is aligned properly via the chalk mark left on the fibreglass door seal of the heater.
NOTE: The door handle may pull the door down on the right-hand side. Compensate for this situation
during adjustment.
Flue system
Under normal conditions, using dry hardwood and employing correct operating procedures, annual
flue maintenance should take place prior to the heating season. If your heater’s performance
deteriorates, or if it smokes excessively after a trouble-free period of operation, the cause may be
creosote. The creosote may have built up to a level where the gases are restricted from exiting the
flue pipe because it is partially blocked.
CAUTION: THE FLUE PIPE MUST BE KEPT CLEAN AND IN GOOD CONDITION. ALL SOLID
FUEL BURNING APPLIANCES NEED TO BE CLEANED FREQUENTLY BECAUSE SOOT,
CREOSOTE AND ASH MAY ACCUMULATE. IN THE EVENT OF A SOOT OR CREOSOTE FIRE
IN THE FLUE, IMMEDIATELY CLOSE THE AIR INLET CONTROL TO STARVE THE FIRE OF
OXYGEN. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU CALL THE FIRE BRIGADE FOR FUTHER
ASSISTANCE AND ADVICE. WHEN THE FIRE IS OUT, HAVE THE FLUE INSPECTED BY A
QUALIFIED INSTALLER TO ENSURE THERE HAS NOT BEEN ANY DAMAGE TO THE FLUE
For cleaning the flue, you may purchase a flue brush from your
Coonara
dealer, or you can engage
the services of a chimney sweep.
