1. Annual Service

IMPORTANT: Stovax provide gauntlet style

gloves for the users protection from heat and

any sharp edges when using the appliance.

For your safety ensure that gloves are always

worn when opening, operating, refuelling or

handling internal metalwork.

1.1 Before the start of the heating season strip, inspect and

clean the appliance as detailed:

— Allow appliance to cool.

— Remove all internal parts: baffle, log guard and firebricks.

Take care handling firebricks as they can become fragile

after a period of use.

— Sweep the appliance at this point if necessary.

— Vacuum clean any remaining ash and debris from the

inside of the appliance. Stovax offer a filter/collection

attachment for vacuum cleaners to protect them from fire

ash: Ash Clean (Stovax Part No. 2091).

— Clean the grate parts with a wire brush.

— Check the parts for any damage. Replace any damaged

parts using genuine Stovax replacements parts.

— Check and clean the firebricks with a soft brush.

Some surface damage will occur during use. The life

of the bricks will depend on the type of fuels burnt and

the level of use. Replace damaged bricks as soon as

possible.

— Re-fit cleaned internal parts.

— Remove the glass from the door and discard all old rope

seals. (see Maintenance and Servicing, Section 3).

— Do not use cleaning agents that have a high alkaline

or acidic content, these are aggressive cleaning

agents designed to be used with heavily stained clear

glass. Use Stovax Glass Cleaner (Stovax No.4103)

which is better formulated for this application.

Do not use abrasive cleaners to remove tar or soot

deposits from the glass.

— Fit new door rope seal (see Maintenance and Servicing,

Section 4).

— Lightly oil the door catch mechanism and hinge pins.

Avoid getting oil onto the door seals and glass.
