Replacement of Glass

1.Remove the door from the stove and place on a flat surface.

2.Carefully remove all of the glass clips from the inside of the door.

3.Gently remove the glass panel and gasket.

4.Using a wire brush, remove all remaining debris from the glass area.

5.Apply a small bead of gasket/stove cement and the new gasket. Do not overlap the ends of the gasket rope.

6.Center the new glass panel over the gasket and reinstall the glass clips.

7.It may be necessary to retighten the glass clips after the stove has be burned and the gasket has been seated.

Important:

1.It is extremely important to tighten the glass clips slowly and in an alternating pattern.

2.Always wear protective gloves when you handle glass with sharp edges.

Replacing parts

Always use genuine replacement parts. Only ever make replacements when the stove is cold.

Surface Finish

The stove should only be cleaned using a damp cloth. Some cleaning products may leave stains on the stove surface. Never use abrasive cloths as these may scratch the surface. Painted stoves can be re-painted by using a good quality, high temperature stove paint. When re-painting, make sure there is plenty of ventilation and follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Allow the paint to fully dry before lighting the stove and allow extra ventilation for the first couple of fires as some fumes may emit from the stove as the paint cures.

Trouble Shooting

Fire Not Burning

A stove not burning is generally caused by either a shortage of air and/or incorrect or damp fuel. If fuel is not the problem check:

That the air controls are opened.

There is no blockage in the flue system.

That the open end of the flue is above the height of any nearby obstructions.

That there is a sufficient air supply into the room and that this supply is not being taken by an extractor fan.

Glass Blackens

Glass usually blackens when:

The fuel is not being burned efficiently because of starvation of air.

Bad quality or damp fuel is being used.

Balance between primary and secondary air is incorrect.

Try to introduce more air into the stove, especially through the secondary air control on the top of the stove door as this air flows down over the glass to help burn off the creosote. For optimum efficiency always use a good quality wood.
