INSTALLER GUIDE
1. SAFETY
Installer
Firefox stoves are efficient appliances giving off convected, conducted and radiated
heat. All the surfaces of the stove - except the controls - are working surfaces and
become hot in use. They must not be touched or have any combustible objects or
materials placed on or near them. A fire guard complying with BS 8423 should be
fitted for the protection of young children, the elderly, the infirm or pet animals.
The appliance is fitted with a flue safety device. If the appliance closes down after a
period of operation for no apparent reason, the consumer should be informed to stop
using the appliance until the installation and appliance have been thoroughly
checked. Under no circumstances should the flue safety device be altered or
bypassed in any way. Only a genuine manufacturers replacement part should be
fitted.
Before continuing any further with the installation of this appliance please read the
following guide to manual handling:
!
The lifting weight of this appliance is 55 kg. We therefore recommend that two
people should be sufficient to lift the stove. If fitting or moving the stove alone we
recommend the use of suitable lifting apparatus.
!
When lifting always keep your back straight. Bend your legs and not your back.
!
Avoid twisting at the waist. It is better to reposition your feet.
!
Avoid upper body/top heavy bending. Do not lean forward or sideways whilst
handling the stove.
!
Always grip with the palm of the hand. Do not use the tips of fingers for support.
!
Always keep the stove as close to the body as possible. This will minimise the
cantilever action.
!
Use gloves to provide additional grip.
!
Always use assistance if required.
