2. If the stove is to be connected at the rear, the
back plate has to be removed by loosening the
two Torx screws on the top.
Then, loosen the flue connection using the two
bolts inside the hearth. After this, turn the con
-
nection round and reassemble it again.
3. Dismantle the internal protective plate that
sits on the inside of the back plate by pushing it
up. (For rear connection, this plate must not be
replaced.) Remove the thrust washer on the back
plate by turning it backwards and forwards and
then reinstall the back plate. Then, connect the
stove connection to the flue (not included in the
delivery) that connects to the chimney. Place the
cover plate on the top of the stove to hide the
chimney hole or, alternatively, a turned hotplate,
(accessory). In which case, the cover plate is
surplus to requirements.
4. If the chimney is to be installed on top, the
chimney must be installed now. Connect the start
module using sealant. Make sure that the joint is
sealed.
NOTE! Always leave at least 10 mm of venti-
lated space between the top of the stove and
the chimney's insulation/outer steel jacket.
(see illustration)
The first section of the chimney is normally half-
insulated (approx. 30-mm insulation). However,
where it passes through the joists, the chimney
becomes fully insulated (approx. 60 mm of insu
-
lation). To maintain the distance of 100 mm from
flammable walls, the chimney flue must be semi
insulated. For additional information about the
installation of the chimney, please, refer to the
installation instructions for the brand of chimney
you have selected.
5. Install the hearth fittings. Begin with the hearth
base and then install the vermiculite plates in the
following order: 1. Back, 2. Rear left, 3. Baffle, 4.
Rear right (now you need to push up the baffle),
5. Front left, 6. Front right. The hearth plates
should line up with the inside of the flange on the
hearth base.
Finish by installing the enclosed log guard by
hooking it firmly to the front edge of the hearth
base.
You have now made your stove ready for use. In order for the sealant to harden properly, you must
leave the stove for at least three days before firing it for the first time.
