Do not light the fire before the boiler and heating system have been filled with water as this can damage the boiler. FUELS Please pay careful attention to the special points made with each type of fuel as they will help you to get the best from your stove. It must be remembered that only smokeless fuels may be burnt in smoke control areas on this stove. If you are not sure whetheryou are ina smoke control area, then please check with your Local Authority. Smokeless Fuels The recommended smokeless fuels which are suitable for use in smoke control areas on this stove are as follows: Ancit, (Phurnacite Plus) Anthracite Large Nuts, Homefire, Maxibrite, Phurnacite, Sunbrite Doubles, Welsh Dry Steam Coal (Large Nuts). Coal Housecoal doubles, trebles or cobbles may all be burnt. Do not use singles, small nuts, or coal dust It is important that large size coal is used (ie. larger than2 inch or 50 mm in size). The coal should be dry. When burning coala little extra care is needed. Please take note of the section "Special Points For Burning Coal". Wood Only dry well seasoned wood should be burnt on this appliance as burning wet unseasoned wood will give rise to heavy tar deposits in the stove, on the glass and within the chimney. For the same reason hard wood is better than soft wood. Burning wet unseasoned wood will also result in considerably reduced outputs. The wood should be cut and split and then left to season in a well ventilated dry place for at least one year but preferably two years before use. Peat Ensure that the peat is well dried before use. Burning wet peat will give rise to heavy tar deposits and reduced outputs. PETROLEUM COKE IS NOT SUITABLE FOR USE ON THIS APPLIANCE. ITS USE WILL INVALIDATE THE GUARANTEE. At first you may find it helpful to try several fuels to find the most suitable. If you are unable to obtain the fuel you want ask your supplier, or an approved fuel distributor to suggest an alternative. DOOR OPERATION Use the door opening and ashpan tool to open and close the doors. Turn the right-hand door knob anti-clockwise to open and clockwise to close (see Fig.1) MULTIFUEL GRATE Your Charnwood stove is fitted witha multifuel grate which enables both solid fuels and wood to be burned equally effectively. The grate has two positions: 1) In the solid fuel position the grate bars are vertical with gaps in between allowing the primary combustion air to come up through the grate and through the fuel bed. 2) In the wood position the grate bars are horizontal, allowing the combustion air to come round the sides of the grate and over the top of it. When in the wood position ash is able to build up on the grate as is necessary for effective wood or peat burning. Movement of the grate from one position to the other is effected using the tool supplied as shown in Fig.2. The grate is put into the solid fuel position by moving the tool up until the handle is in the1 o'clock position. The grate is put into the wood position by moving the tool down until the handle is in the5 o'clock position. To riddle the appliance when burning solid fuels the tool should be moved between the1 o'clock and3 o'clock positions several times. When burning wood or peat the ash should be allowed to build up and riddling should only be carried out once or twicea week. LIGHTING The stove may be lit using dry kindling wood and paper or fire lighters. Set the grate into either the wood position or the solid fuel position as required. Place the paper, Fig.1 Stove Controls Control Airwash Closed Open Door handle To Open Riddler Lever Control Thermostat Thermostat Flap (Behind Panel) Page1 Country 15B 09/03 or fire lighters, and kindling on the grate and cover with approximately2 inches of fuel. Turn the control knob to maximum, and open the airwash control fully (see Fig. 1). Light the paper or fire lighters. Close the doors until the fuel is well ignited then load with fuel and adjust the air controls to the required setting. On initial lighting, the stove may smoke and give off an odour as the silicon paint with which the firebox is painted reacts to the heat. This is normal and will cease aftera short time, but meanwhile the room should be kept well ventilated. When relighting the stove, riddle (if burning solid fuel), remove any clinker from the firebed and then empty the ashpan. CONTROLLING THE FIRE The rate of burning and hence the output is controlled by the control knob on the side of the fire and the airwash control (see Fig.1). The control knob is linked toa thermostat which senses the boiler temperature. The number at the front of the knob is the number at which it is set. The airwash control should be kep...
