Hunter Stoves recommend that wood logs are burnt
in this appliance.
Burn only dry, well-seasoned wood, which should
have been cut, split and stacked for at least 12
months, with free air movement around the sides of
the stack to enable it to dry out.
Burning wet or unseasoned wood will create tar
deposits in the stove and chimney and will not
produce a satisfactory heat output.
Only authorised smokeless fuels may be used in
smoke control areas.

Baffle-
This should be removed and cleaned at least
once a month to prevent any build up of soot or fly
ash that could lead to blocked flue ways and
dangerous fume emission.
If the baffle is removed the chimney/flue way can be
swept through the appliance.
Stove body
– the stove is finished with a heat
resistant paint and this can be cleaned with a soft
brush. Do not clean the stove whilst it is hot; wait
until it has cooled down. The finish can be renovated
with proprietary stove paint.
Glass Panel(s) -
Clean the glass panel when cool with
proprietary glass cleaner.
Highly abrasive substances should be avoided as
these can scratch the glass and make subsequent
cleaning more difficult.
Wet logs on heated glass, a badly aimed poker or
heavy slamming of the door could crack the glass
panel.
The glass will not fracture from heat.
Firebricks-
In normal use, these can last for many
years. It is possible however, to crack them if logs are
continually jammed against them or if they are
frequently struck with a poker.
Check periodically for seriously cracked bricks, which
can be replaced with new, available from your dealer.
Door Catch-
The door catch may require adjustment
to maintain the door seal. To adjust the catch, follow
the appropriate procedure below;
Loosen the M6 grub screw.
Rotate the catch shaft one complete turn to
achieve the correct door operation.
Tighten the grub screw.
