10mm Spanner

Pozidriv screwdriver

Before fitting the riddling grate (Fig. 1) remove the fuel retainer and 
the wood ash retainer. The wood ash retainer is not required when 
the riddling grate is fitted.

Undo the nut on the riddling blanking hole using a 10mm spanner. 
Remove the cover and spacing washer (ensure you keep these in a 
safe place as you will need to replace them if the riddling grate is 
removed).

Feed the riddler rod through the hole on the right hand side of the 
stove, and slide one washer onto the rod, (if there is not sufficient 
room to the right of the stove to do this then remove the riddler 
knob , fit one washer over the rod and then slide the rod through the 
hole from the inside of the stove.) 

Feed the rod through the two side fireplates and slide the other 
washer on to the rod so that the washers end up outside the two side 
fireplates. With the side fireplates pushed together fit the retaining 
clips so that the washers come inside the clips. 

Slide the side fireplates apart so that they rest against the sides of the 
firebox. Slot in the front and rear support plates.

Fit the grate plates into position through the front and rear grate 
support plates, making sure they locate correctly onto the riddler 
rod. Fit the fuel retainer. Slide the ashpan under the grate.

Before lighting the stove check with the installer that the work and 
checks described in the Installation Instructions have been carried out 
correctly and that the chimney has been swept, is sound and free 
from any obstructions. The stove is not suitable for use in a shared 
flue system.

Remember that the stove will be hot and that it is made from hard 
materials – ensure that you have good balance before operating the 
fire.

Do not use an aerosol spray on or near the stove when it is alight. 
There is a risk of explosion or flash ignition of the spray.

 

The stove is suitable for intermittent operation.

This stove has been designated to burn 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 woods (such as Ash, 
Beech and Oak) are better than soft woods (such as Pine and 
Spruce.) 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. Approximate suitable log sizes 
are 255mm (10in) long and 75mm (3in) diameter.

PETROLEUM COKE IS NOT SUITABLE FOR USE ON 

THIS APPLIANCE. ITS USE WILL INVALIDATE THE 

GUARANTEE.

This stove is not designed to burn household waste.

For advice on other fuels please contact Charnwood.

This appliance has been approved by HETAS as an intermittent 

operating appliance for burning dry seasoned wood logs only. HETAS 

approval does not cover the use of other fuels either alone or mixed 

with wood logs nor does it cover the instructions for use of other 

fuels.

Tool required for fitting the  riddling grate:

When using the stove in situations where children, aged and/or 
infirm persons are present a fireguard must be used to prevent 
accidental contact with the stove. The fireguard should be 
manufactured in accordance with BS 8423:2002.
