surfaces simply wipe over with a dry cloth. Abrasive pads and
scouring cleaners must not be used as these will damage the
finish. Care should be taken not to knock the enamel with
hard objects as it will chip.
Cleaning the Glass
The glass in the doors is a special ceramic glass which is able
to withstand high temperatures. 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 or ceramic hob 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 these can scratch the surface which will
weaken the glass and cause premature failure. Aerosol spray
cleaners should not be used near the appliance whilst it is
under fire.
When not in use
If the fire is going to be out of use for a long period, (for
instance in the summer,) then to prevent condensation, and
hence corrosion, the thermostat should be left at the
maximum setting and the main doors left ajar. It is also
advisable to sweep the chimney and clean out the fire.
Spraying the inside of the doors and firebox with a light oil,
such as WD40, will also help to keep all internal parts
working well.
After long periods where the fire has been out of use, the
chimney and appliance flueways should be cleaned before
lighting.
Door Seals
For the fire to operate correctly it is important that the door
seals are in good condition. Check that they do not become
worn or frayed and replace them when necessary.
Servicing
It is recommended that the fire is serviced once a year to
keep it in first class working order. After cleaning out the
firebox thoroughly, check that all internal parts are in good
working order, replacing any parts that are beginning to show
signs of wear. Check that the door seals are in good condition
until the fire is burning brightly before filling with fuel.
If the central heating pump is off overnight, the thermostat
may be left at the same setting for both day and night
operation. If the central heating pump is on overnight, then set
the thermostat control to give the required level of heating.
Some experimentation may be necessary to find the setting
most suitable for the particular fuel used and the draw on the
chimney. For overnight burning the fire doors must be closed.
To revive the fire, empty the ashpan if necessary, riddle, and
turn the thermostat control knob to maximum. When the fire
is burning well load on more fuel as necessary and, when
flames are well established above the fuel bed, turn the control
knob to the desired setting.
THROAT PLATE AND FLUEWAY CLEANING
It is important that the throat plate and all the appliance
flueways are kept clean. When burning smokeless fuels they
should be cleaned at least monthly and more frequently if it is
found necessary.
The throat plate and flueways may be cleaned with a low fire
still burning. Lower the throat plate using the throat plate tool.
To do this engage the end of the tool in the throat plate as
shown in Fig. 4, pull the plate forward and then lower it. Use
the scraper tool to push any sooty deposits up the plate until
they fall off the back and into the fire. While the throat plate is
in the lowered position also scrape any soot deposits from the
sides and top of the firebox. Ensure that soot deposits are not
allowed to build up on the side boiler faces: if the throat plate
becomes tight between the faces it could fail prematurely.
Return the throat plate to its correct position - raise the front
of the plate, push it back and then lower it onto the retaining
lugs. The upper set of lugs are for use when burning smokeless
fuels (see Fig. 4).
More soot will be deposited on the throat plate and in the
flueways if the appliance is run at low levels for long periods. If
this is the case then more frequent cleaning will be necessary.
