FUELS

The following fuels may be burnt on
this stove. Please pay careful
attention to the special points made
with each type of fuel as they will
help you to get the best from your
stove. It must be remembered that
only smokeless fuels may be burnt in
smoke control areas on this stove. If
you are not sure whether you are in a
smoke control area, then please check
with your Local Authority.

Smokeless Fuels

The recommended smokeless fuels
which are suitable for use in smoke
control areas on this stove are as
follows:

Ancit, (Phurnacite Plus)
Anthracite Large Nuts,
Cosycoke
Homefire,
Maxibrite,
Phurnacite,
Sunbrite Doubles,
Welsh Dry Steam Coal (Large Nuts).

Coal

Housecoal doubles, trebles or cobbles
may all be burnt. Do not use singles,
small nuts, or coal dust

It is important that large size coal is
used (ie. larger than 2 inch or 50 mm
in size). The coal should be dry.

When burning bituminous coal a
little extra care is needed. Please take
note of the section "Special Points
For Burning Coal".

Wood

Only dry well seasoned wood should
be burnt on this appliance as burning
wet unseasoned wood will give rise to
heavy tar deposits in the stove, on the
glass and within the chimney. For the
same reason hard wood is better than
soft wood. Burning wet unseasoned
wood will also result in considerably
reduced outputs. The wood should be
cut and split and then left to season
in a well ventilated dry place for at
least one year but preferably two
years before use.

Peat

Ensure that the peat is well dried
before use. Burning wet peat will
give rise to heavy tar deposits and
reduced outputs.

PETROLEUM COKE IS NOT

SUITABLE FOR USE ON THIS

APPLIANCE. ITS USE WILL

INVALIDATE THE

GUARANTEE.

At first you may find it helpful to try
several fuels to find the most suitable.
If you are unable to obtain the fuel
you want ask your supplier, or an
approved fuel distributor to suggest
an alternative.

DOOR OPERATION

Use the door opening and ashpan tool
to open and close the doors. Turn the
right-hand door knob anti-clockwise
to open and clockwise to close.(see
Fig. 1)

MULTIFUEL GRATE

Your Charnwood stove is fitted with
a multifuel grate which enables both
solid fuels and wood to be burned
equally effectively. The grate has two
positions:-

1) In the solid fuel position the grate

bars are vertical with gaps in between
allowing the primary combustion air
to come up through the grate and
through the fuel bed.

2) In the wood position the grate bars
are horizontal, allowing the
combustion air to come round the
sides of the grate and over the top of
it. When in the wood position ash is
able to build up on the grate as is
necessary for effective wood or peat
burning.

Movement of the grate from one
position to the other is effected using
the tool supplied as shown in Fig. 2.
The grate is put into the solid fuel
