The fire should be riddled with the doors shut (see Fig 2.) Place the tool onto the riddler rod and rotate between the ‘3 o’clock’ and ‘5 o’clock positions several times. Too much riddling can result in emptying unburnt fuel into the ashpan and should therefore be avoided. Clinker should regularly be removed from the firebed. After riddling, the grate should be put back into the solid fuel or wood position as required (the tool should be horizontal for solid fuel or vertical for wood). REFUELLING Keep the firebox well filled but do not overfill to prevent fuel from spilling over the top of the front fire bars. Care should be taken especially when burning wood that fuel does not project over the front fire bars or damage to the glass may be caused when the doors are closed, it can also cause the glass to black up . ASH CLEARANCE The ashpan should be emptied regularly before it becomes too full. Never allow the ash to accumulate in the ashpan so that it comes in contact with the underside of the grate as this will seriously damage the grate bars. The ashpan is handled using the tool provided. Care should be taken to ensure that ash is cool before emptying it into plastic liners or bins. To make ash removal easier there is a special Charnwood ash carrier available. This may be purchased from your supplier or, in case of difficulty, from ourselves. SPECIAL POINTS WHEN BURNING COAL When loading the stove take care not to smother the fire, instead fill the firebox in two stages waiting between Page 4 Country 10/93 each stage for the flames to appear above the fire. After a period of slumbering always turn the air control up to maximum and wait until flames appear above the fuel bed before opening the doors. Burning coal will produce more soot deposits than other fuels, especially if the fire is run at low levels for long periods. It is therefore vital to clean the throat plate regularly, weekly cleaning is recommended. Never fully close the Airwash control when burning coal. SPECIAL POINTS WHEN BURNING WOOD AND PEAT The grate should be kept in the wood burning position and should not be riddled until the ash becomes so deep that it begins to block the passage of air into the firebox at the side of the grate. When this is the case do not remove all of the ash using the riddling mechanism but keep a layer about half an inch thick as this enables the wood to burn more effectively. When burning wood or peat use the airwash control in the same way as described (see ‘CONTROLLING THE FIRE’ )but keep the door airslides closed once the desired temperature has been reached. OVERNIGHT BURNING For overnight burning the fire doors must be closed. When burning solid fuel the ashpan should be emptied and the fire riddled. The air controls should be turned up to maximum for a brief period and then when the fire is burning brightly it should be loaded with fuel. When the new fuel has ignited, the door airslides should be almost closed and the airwash control moved to a low setting. Some experimentation will be necessary to find the settings most suitable for the particular fuel used and the draw on the chimney. To revive the fire, empty the ashpan, riddle, and open the air controls to maximum. When the fire is burning well load on more fuel as necessary and move the air controls to the desired setting. When burning wood use large logs rather than small ones. Proceed as above, but do not riddle the fire either when shutting down or reviving. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE The stove is finished with a high temperature paint which will withstand the temperatures encountered in normal use. This may be cleaned with a damp lint-free cloth when the stove is cold. Should re-painting become necessary, high temperature paints are available from your supplier or from stove shops. The glass in the doors is a zero expansion ceramic glass which will not crack due to the heat of the fire. Before cleaning the glass open the doors and allow them to cool. Clean the glass using a damp cloth and then wiping over with a dry cloth. Any stubborn deposits on the glass may be removed with a proprietary stove glass cleaner. Some deposits on the glass may be burnt off simply by running the fire at a fast rate for a few minutes. Do not use abrasive cleaners or pads as theses can scratch the surface which will weaken the glass and cause premature failure. THROAT PLATE AND FLUEWAY CLEANING It is important that the throat plate and all the stove flueways are kept clean. When burning smokeless fuels they should be cleaned monthly. When burning other fuels they should be cleaned at least once a week, and more frequently if necessary. It is not necessary to let the fire out completely to carry out these operations. The throat plate is lowered using the tool. The front of the throat plate is pulled forward and then lowered as shown in figure 3. Any sooty deposits should then be swept from the plate and into the fire. Return the throat plate to it’s correct position - ra...
