up in the chimney when the stove
is operated this way.
Ash clearance
The stove has one ash pan designed
for ease of handling. The ash pan
should be emptied before it gets
overfilled to protect the grate
from over-heating especially when
burning solid fuels as the ash is
an excellent insulator and excess
build-up of ash will cause grate
damage.
Great care should be observed when
emptying the ashes as it can be
very hot and it could start a fire
if it comes into contact with
combustible material like plastic
bins etc.
Stove and chimney
cleaning and
maintenance
Stove cleaning:
Regular cleaning is essential for
safe and efficient operation of the
stove.
During the heating season it is
recommended to clean the stove
weekly or fortnightly. Inspect on a
regular basis the condition of the
door seal and if found to be worn
replace it immediately.
Only clean the stove when it is
fully cold. A Pair of gloves should
be used when cleaning the stove and
care should be taken to avoid
injury as a number of the stove
components are quite heavy.
As per figure 5 below, to remove
the baffle assembly for cleaning,
pull the top casting up slightly
and forward to release the front
mounting clip and then lower the
plate and remove from the stove.
Above the cast iron baffle will be
a vermiculite insulation plate.
This can be lowered away if it
doesn’t come down with the cast
iron baffle. Access to the flue
outlet is now possible for cleaning
and the chimney can be cleaned up
through the stove at this point.

To clean the bottom part of the
stove the rear airway must be
cleared out, see Fig.6 below

Remove the firebox cast iron
side plates.
