OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Open the air control fully (boost position) when lighting or when
rapid burning is required. It should not be left fully open for long
periods as this can cause over-firing or excessive smoke production.
For high output move the air control to the ‘click position’ or for low
burning to the fully closed position.
When the fire is burning normally the air control gives enough
airwash to keep the glass clean. However, it will not always be
possible to keep the glass clean with the air control fully closed. For
correct firing we recommend the use of a stove pipe thermometer
which may be purchased from your supplier or from Charnwood.
The Charnwood Island I - AP and Island II - BP is fitted with an air
control stop for use in a smoke control area. This stops the stove
from burning too slowly.
REFUELLING
Keep the firebox well filled but do not allow fuel to spill over the top
of the fuel retainer.
Logs should be evenly distributed, filling the firebed to give the most
pleasing flame pattern. The air control must be fully opened after
refuelling until the flames are established above the fire. It is best to
refuel on to a hot bed of embers. If at this point the fire starts to die,
the door must be cracked open until the fire is revived. If the fire has
started to die down before refuelling, then more kindling wood must
be added, the air control opened fully and the door cracked open
to re-establish the firebed before adding larger logs (see suitable log
sizes in Fuel section). This will avoid excessive smoke emission.
Care should be taken, especially when burning wood, that fuel does
not project over the fuel retainer or damage to the glass may be
caused when the door is closed. It can also cause the glass to blacken
up. Maximum filling height is such that logs cannot fall from the fire
when the door is opened.
In smoke controlled areas do not fill the stove above the level of the
air holes in the back bricks, as overloading can cause excess smoke.
Do not operate with the door left open except as directed by the
instructions as this can cause excessive smoke.
ASH CLEARANCE
For optimum wood burning, it is important to leave a layer of ash
around 1cm thick on the base of the stove. Before removing ash
ensure that it has cooled down,
The ashpan is handled using the operation tool and gloves provided.
Ensure that the tool is fully engaged before lifting (See Fig.4). When
carrying the ashpan, it should be kept horizontal and supported by
the carrying handle to prevent it falling off the tool. Please avoid
emptying hot ash into plastic liners or bins.
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.
To make ash removal easier there are ash carriers available. These
may be purchased from your supplier or, in case of difficulty, from
Charnwood.

REDUCED BURNING
For reduced burning the fire door must be closed.
When burning wood in areas that are not smoke controlled, load
some large logs on the fire and allow to burn for half an hour before
closing the air control (this will help to reduce tar deposits in the
chimney). Some experimentation may be necessary to find the
setting most suitable for the type of fuel being used and the draw on
the chimney.
MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
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.
