OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Congratulations on becoming the owner of a Charnwood Island
Stove. Your stove has been approved in smoke control areas to burn
wood logs if it is used in accordance with these instructions. It is very
important that you read and understand these instructions before
using the stove.
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.
Remember that the stove will be hot and that it is made from hard
materials – ensure that you have good balance before operating the
fire. Always use the provided operating tool and gloves.
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.
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.
The stove is suitable for intermittent operation.
FUEL
Please pay careful attention to the special points made with each
type of fuel as they will help you to get the best from your stove. It
must be remembered that only authorised fuels and wood logs may
be burnt in smoke control areas on this stove. If you are not sure
whether you are in a smoke control area, please check with your
Local Authority.
At first you may find it helpful to try several fuels to find the most
suitable. If you are unable to obtain the fuel you want, ask your
supplier, or an approved fuel distributor, to suggest an alternative.
Authorised Mineral Fuels
Authorised mineral fuels may be burned in smoke control areas on
this appliance. Your local fuel supplier or stove shop will be able to
advise you which fuels are available locally. A list of authorised fuels
can be found at:
https://smokecontrol.defra.gov.uk/fuels.php
Take care to only burn good quality fuels in order to obtain the
greatest efficiency and to maintain the life of the appliance.
Wood logs
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. Approximate
suitable log sizes are:
Island I - AP : 400mm(15in) long and 75mm (3in) diameter
Island II - BP : 440mm(15in) long and 75mm (3in) diameter
Log moisture content of less than 20% is recommended.
PETROLEUM COKE IS NOT SUITABLE FOR USE ON THIS
APPLIANCE. ITS USE WILL INVALIDATE THE GUARANTEE.
This stove is not designed to burn household waste.
MULTI GRATE
Your Charnwood Island is fitted with a multi grate to enable wood
or smokeless fuel to be burned and ash to be cleared. The grate has
two positions:
1) In the solid fuel 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 wood 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 operation tool supplied as shown in Fig.1.
The grate is put into the solid fuel position by turning the operation
tool anticlockwise and pulling out the fuel selection slider shown
in Fig.1. The grate is put into the wood position by turning the
operation tool clockwise. To riddle the appliance the tool should be
moved between the clockwise and anticlockwise positions several
