Gaps between the boiler and the firebricks should be filled with fire cement. Replace the back fireplate, the side fireplates, the front firebar and the throat plate.
Connect the boiler to the heating system ensuring that the flow pipe rises from the boiler. Fill the system with water and check for leaks.
CONNECTIONS TO
FLUES
There are several ways of connecting the stove to the flue. These are illustrated in figures 4 to 7. Horizontal lengths of flue must be kept to a minimum and should not be more than 150mm (6 inches) long. The sealing face of the flue collar should be coated with fire cement before fixing to the body of the stove
using the two screws provided. The blanking plate should be removed, sealed with fire cement and refitted, care being taken to ensure that it is fully rotated to the stop provided. All flue connections must be well sealed. Ensure that the flat top or canopy is securely bolted to the body of the stove.
SOOT DOORS
It is possible to pass a 16’’ diameter sweeps brush through the appliance but in most back outlet installations it will be necessary to have a soot door to enable the chimney to be swept. This may either be in the actual brickwork of the chimney or in the register plate. Various types and positions of soot doors are shown in figures 4 to 6.
COUNTRY 8
EXTENSION LEGS
Extension legs are available as an option for the Country 8. These raise the stove 65 mm (2.6 inches). They clamp onto the existing legs using the fixing screw provided. The leg with the hole must be fitted at the front right to allow the airwash control to operate.
PRE LIGHTING
CHECK
Before initial lighting the following points should be checked :-
1.The bottom grate bars must all be fitted and should move freely and easily when the riddling mechanism is operated.

2.The plates round the sides and back of the grate must be in position and sitting correctly.
3.The throat plate must be fitted in the roof of the appliance and should be checked to ensure that it has not become dislodged in transit. The method of location and positioning of the throat plate is shown in fig 3.
4.The top or canopy must be securely bolted to the body of the stove using the fixings provided to ensure proper sealing.
COMMISSIONING
On completion of the installation and after allowing a suitable period of time for the fire cement and mortar to dry out, the stove should be lit and checked to ensure that smoke and fumes are taken from the appliance up the chimney and emitted safely. Also check all joints and seals. On completion of the installation and commissioning please leave the operating instructions with the customer and advise them on the use of the appliance.
