DISPOSAL OF ASHES
The stove is provided with a steel ashpan. This ash-
pan must be emptied every day.
If ashes are allowed to build up to grate level the fire-
bars could be damaged by overheating. We recom-
mend that you remove ashes after you have riddled
the fire following an overnight burn.
Note: The stove should never be operated with the
ashpit door open.
Ashes should be placed in a metal or other non-
combustible container with a tight fitting lid. The
closed container of ashes should be placed on a
non-combustible material, pending final disposal. If
ashes are buried in soil, or otherwise dumped they
should be retained in the closed container until they
are thoroughly cooled.
TO CLEAN CHIMNEY OUTLET
These parts are heavy and must be allowed to
cool before removal.
Remove baffle underneath the boiler cross flow
chamber by lifting it upwards and pulling it outwards
and insert cleaning brush. Replace baffle before
lighting fire.
TO REPLACE DAMAGED GRATE OR GRATE
BAR
Remove the front brick, the back brick, all the left
hand side bricks and both small right side bricks from
the stove, taking care not to damage or break any of
the bricks in the process. Tilt the grate assembly up
on the left hand side of the stove and pull towards
the left side of the stove until the driven rocker bar is
clear of the right hand firebricks. Remove the grate
assembly from the firebox, replace the damaged part
and reassemble the firebox by re-positioning the
grate assembly and then reposition all the firebricks.
Ensure the riddling mechanism works properly from
outside the stove before replacing the firebricks.
DE-ASHING
When ash build-up becomes excessive in the fire
chamber shake the firebars by inserting the operat-
ing tool into the round slot on the right side of the
stove, twisting clockwise and anti-clockwise.
A poker is also provided for de-ashing.
