FIREBOX LININGS & THROAT
PLATE

The Hereford Wood/Multifuel stoves firebox have
reflective liners to the sides and rear and a
specially shaped throat plate which sits on the
liners. If these are not in place please refer to page
15 to install these.

WOOD/MULTIFUEL GRATE  

The Wood/Mulitfuel grate should remain in the fire
when burning fuel at all times. If cleaning is
required carefully take the grate out and clean as
necessary. 

Note:

It may be necessary to remove the

throat plate and liners to remove the grate.

AIR INLET CONTROLS

Hereford multifuel stoves have two air inlets:
•The air wash system (so called because its
pre-heated high speed air washes across the inner
face of the door glass, keeping it clear), which
provides over draught, and
•The primary air inlet providing under draught to
the base of the fire chamber through the controls on
the doors of the fires.

PRIMARY

AIR FOR HEREFORD

STOVES

On the Hereford, primary air enters the appliance
through the controls on the bottom of the fire doors.
Moving the control knobs to the right will increase
the air inlet, to the left to reduce the air inlet, or to
seal the ash door completely. 

HAMLET AIRWASH SYSTEM  

The air wash has an internal sliding plate with slots,
housed in a cover plate, and is located above the fire
door. Sliding the control knob to the right as far as it
will go achieves the fully open position. Sliding it to
the left will shut off the air inlet slots as shown in 
Fig. 2a and Fig. 2b.

Fig. 2a Fully closed   

Fig. 2b Fully open

Even when all the slots are completely shut a
"bleed" of secondary air will be maintained
ensuring that inflammable gases are burnt off. 

DISASSEMBLE AIRWASH

The Hereford air wash may be disassembled for
cleaning or adjustment. To achieve this, the
following procedure should be followed:

This should only be carried out when the fire is cold
and unlit.

•Slide the control knob fully to the left (As in
Fig.2a) .
•Keeping this knob in the above position, unscrew
the spring outer handle and remove washer.
•Support airwash cover with one hand.
•Move cover up by smartly tapping the bottom with
a hammer or mallet.
•Remove cover from appliance.
•Clean the air inlet slots
•Refit using reverse procedure.

Note:

The airwash chamber (inside of stove) can be

completely removed from the stove by removing
two outer most pozi drive screws.
