OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1.17 RIDDLING GRATE
W
hen burning solid fuel de-ash the firebed, using the
riddling grate system as shown below.
De-ash the firebed, using the riddling grate system.
To do this lower the ash cover (see 1.10) below the door,
then insert the ash pan tool into the socket as shown and
move the primary air control vigorously left to right, this
causes the ash to fall down onto the ashpan.
Never operate the grate with your bare hands
2.1 When new it is best to burn the fire at a low output for the
first few days of use. This will allow the construction to
settle and all fixing glues and paint to fully cure.
AVOID TOUCHING THE PAINT DURING FIRST PERIOD
OF USE.
2.2 During this time the appliance may give off some
unpleasant odours, and we recommend that you keep the
room well ventilated during this period to avoid a build-up
of fumes.
3.1 Open the Airwash control fully and open the Primary air
control
to approximately 25% open.
3.2 Place some pieces of firelighter or dry crumpled paper on
the grate and cover with some small pieces of dry kindling
wood. Light the paper or firelighters. Do not burn plastics.
3.3
To avoid the build-up of condensation on the door glass it is
advisable to leave the door slightly open as the fire
establishes, and the glass warms.
3.4 As the fire becomes established add larger pieces of wood
and fully close the door. Do not leave the stove with the
door open as this could over-fire the stove and cause
permanent damage.
3.5 As the fire becomes established close the Primary air
control
and control the burn rate using the Airwash control
only.
3.6 To burn wood efficiently it is best to allow a bed of ash to
build-up on the grate, and control the combustion using the
Airwash control only.
3.7 Before re-fuelling the stove it is advisable to first rake the
embers evenly over the firebed then open the
Airwash
control
fully for a few minutes, to establish a glowing bed
before adding new logs.
