INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION

 

 

 4. OILSTOVES 
 
The stove should be mounted in a drip tray at least 50 mm (2”) deep. 
 
The stove should be vertical with the long axis of the regulator seen from above 
parallel with the ships bow to stern axis. However in the event of a ship with a 
very powerful motor the stove should be turned so that the regulator is on the 
forward side of the stove. 
 
The above precautions are because the stoves are gravity fed with fuel, and if 
the burner receives insufficient oil, the stove is extinguished. The stove will 
not burn e.g. in sailing boat with a constant heel of more than 10 degrees. 
 
The stove should be installed a minimum of 300 mm (12”) from combustible material 
e.g. deck of bulkhead unless there is suitable insulation. We recommend that 
there should be insulation behind and over the stove, and that the relevant 
country Ministry of ship surveyor rules for insulating and covering of bulkheads, 
as shown in the drawing, are being followed. 
 
The stove should be installed as low as possible in the ship. The stove takes its 
air in for combustion through the lowest row of slots in the stove body (not 
model F & C). The cold air in the bottom of the boat is then burnt, giving a more 
even heat through-out. 

 

  
5. FLUE (CHIMNEY) UNDER THE DECK 
 
The best up draught is obtained with a vertical flue. 
 
Should the flue be fitted with a 90 degrees bend, we recommend it to be fitted 
with an inspection cover for ease of cleaning. 
 
There should be a maximum of 2 90 degrees bends. Should further bends be 
necessary, 45 degrees bends must be used. 

DECK FLANGE: 
The deck flange is provided 
with an insulated ring. 
To fit - turn the largest 
dimension ring downwards 
and cut the deckhouse/deck.
