OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
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.
Cleaning the Glass
Most deposits on the glass may be burnt off simply by running the fire
at a fast rate for a few minutes. If it becomes necessary to clean the
glass then open the door and allow it 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. Do not use abrasive cleaners or pads
as these can scratch the surface which will weaken the glass and cause
premature failure
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
air control should be left fully open and the fire door left ajar. It Is also
advisable to sweep the chimney and clean out the fire. Spraying the
inside of the door 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 and that the door seals correctly. A
servicing guide is available on request. Repairs or modifications may
only be carried out by the Manufacturer or their approved agents.
Use only genuine Charnwood replacement parts.
THROAT PLATE AND FLUEWAY CLEANING
It is important that the throat plate and all the stove flueways are kept
clean in order to prevent potentially dangerous fume emission. They
should be cleaned at least monthly, and more frequently if necessary.
It is necessary to let the fire out to carry out these operations.
To remove the throat plate, first remove the fuel retainer (item ‘e’
page 4) and one side plate to allow enough room so that the throat
plate clears the sides of the fire box when removed.
The Skye 7 throat plate is made up of two bricks and a bracket that
slides over the front that holds the two bricks together. The Skye 5
throat plate is one brick.
To remove the throat plate, if made up of two pieces, first carefully
remove the joining bracket at the front of the throat plate and then
lift the two pieces down from the top of the stove. If the throat plate
is a single piece, slide the throat plate forwards so that it clears the
back brick, then slide it either right or left so that the opposite side
clears the top of the remaining side brick and can be gently lowered.
Any sooty deposits should then be swept from the throat plate and
into the fire.
On Skye 7 models only, lift out the upper throat plate and clean any
deposits, then re-fit it as shown in figure 6. If the rear flue connection
is used, then the upper throat plate is not required.
To re-fit the lower throat plate, if the throat plate is made up of
two pieces, fit each half so that it rests on the side and back brick,
then, making sure the two halves are fitted closely together, slide the
joining clip back onto the front edge, making sure that it is central
on the join. If it is a single piece, return the throat plate to its correct
position by offering up the throat plate at an angle. Insert the throat
plate so that it sits on top of either the right or left side brick. Raise
the opposite side and slide so that the throat plate is central and
supported by the side bricks. Slide back so that the throat plate rests
neatly on the top of the back bricks. Refit the remaining side plate.
