NOTE:-
A boiler model stove will provide heat into the boil-
er and also to the room in which it is situated. The
heat to room is in a fixed relationship with the heat
to the boiler.
The heat to the boiler is controlled by the air supply
to the stove which is required to have a thermosta-
tic damper for safety reasons. When the tempera-
ture of the water in the boiler exceeds 55 ˚C the
thermostatic damper will begin to shut off the air
supply, should the water temperature continue to
rise the thermostatic damper will continue to close
and if the water temperature reaches 85 ˚C the
thermostatic damper closes the primary air supply
fully.
In the event where a stove is fitted to a central heat-
ing system which is undersized in relation to the
nominal heat output to boiler then the stove will
operate satisfactorily but will be unable to achieve
the nominal heat output to room as the thermostat-
ic damper will shut off the air supply to prevent an
overheat situation in the boiler.
For example:- Where a stove provides 2kW to the
room and 8kW to the boiler and if the thermostatic
damper shuts down the air supply to provide 4kW to
the boiler, then the heat to room will decrease pro-
portionally to 1kW.
DE-ASHING
When ash build-up becomes excessive in the fire
chamber shake the firebars by pushing and pulling
the riddling rod repeatedly. The riddling rod is locat-
ed under the base at the front left corner

DISPOSAL OF ASHES
Your stove is provided with a steel ashpan. This
ashpan should be emptied every day.
If ashes are allowed to build to grate level you could
damage the firebars by overheating. We recom-
mend that you remove ashes after you have riddled
the fire following overnight burn.
Ashes should be placed in a metal or other non-
combustible container with a tight fitting lid. The
closed container of ashes should be placed on a
non-combustible material, pending final disposal. If
ashes are buried in soil, or otherwise dumped they
should be retained in the closed container until they
are thoroughly cooled. See Fig.15.

MAINTENANCE
CREOSOTE
Creosote formation & need for removal when some
fuels are burned slowly, they produce tar and other
organic vapours, which combine with expelled mois-
ture to form creosote. The creosote vapours con-
dense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow-
burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumu-
lates on the flue lining. When ignited creosote
makes an extremely hot fire.
CLEAN THE FLUEWAYS OF THE STOVE EVERY
WEEK AND ENSURE THAT THERE ARE NO
BLOCKAGES. CHECK FLUEWAYS BEFORE
LIGHTING ESPECIALLY AFTER A SHUTDOWN
PERIOD. PLEASE REFER TO MANUAL FOR
INSTRUCTIONS.
