to close. The stove is normally run with the doors shut.

Your Charnwood Island is fitted with a multi grate to enable wood to

be burned and ash to be cleared. The grate has two positions:

1) In the open position the grate bars are vertical with gaps in

between allowing the primary combustion air to come up through

the grate and through the fuel bed.

2) In the closed position the grate bars are horizontal, allowing the

combustion air to come round the sides of the grate and over the top

of it. When in the closed position ash is able to build up on the grate

as is necessary for effective wood burning.

Movement of the grate from one position to the other is effected

using the tool supplied as shown in Fig. 2. The grate is put into the

open position by moving the tool up until the handle is in the 1

o'clock position. The grate is put into the closed position by moving

the tool down until the handle is in the 5 o'clock position. To riddle

the appliance the tool should be moved between the 1 o'clock and 3

o'clock positions several times. When burning wood the ash should

be allowed to build up and riddling should only be carried out once

or twice a week.

Light the Stove using dry kindling wood and paper or fire lighters. Set

the grate into either the closed position or the open position as

required. Place the paper, or fire lighters, and kindling on the grate

and cover with a few small dry logs. Open the thermostat control

fully (see Fig. 1). Light the paper or fire lighters. Close the doors until

LIGHTING

Before lighting the stove check with the installer that the work and

checks described in the Installation Instructions have been carried out

correctly and that the chimney has been swept, is sound and free

from any obstructions. The stove is not suitable for use in a shared

flue system.

Your Island stove has been designed to work with the minimum

effort. If any operation - such as riddling the grate or opening and

closing the doors - begins to require extra force then the cause must

be investigated and corrected to prevent damage being caused to the

stove.

Remember that the stove will be hot and is made from hard materials

- ensure that you have a good balance before operating the fire.

When using the stove in situations where children, aged and/or

infirm persons are present a fireguard must be used to prevent

accidental contact with the stove. The fireguard should be

manufactured in accordance with BS 8423:2002.

Do not use an aerosol spray on or near the stove when it is alight.

There is a risk of explosion or flash ignition of the spray.

This stove is capable of intermittent or continuous operation.

This stove is intended primarily for burning wood. Only dry well

seasoned wood should be burnt on this appliance as burning wet

unseasoned wood will give rise to heavy tar deposits in the stove, on

the glass and within the chimney. For the same reason hard woods

(such as Ash, Beech and Oak) are better than soft woods (such as

Pine and Spruce). Burning wet unseasoned wood will also result in

considerably reduced outputs. The wood should be cut and split and

then left to season in a well ventilated dry place for at least one year

but preferably two years before use.

For advice on other fuels please contact Charnwood.

The door handle has been carefully designed so that in normal use it

may be operated using bare hands. However, if you need to open the

doors when the fire is running at maximum then the use of a cloth or

glove may be required.

Take care not to touch the doors as they will be hot when the fire is

burning. Turn the door handle clockwise to open, and anti-clockwise
