—Using gloves carefully remove ashpan with the tool provided. Heat can remain long after use.

—Place the ash into a Stovax Ash Caddy (Stovax Part No. 4227) or other suitable container.

—Remove ash at least once every week when burning wood.

—Do not place hot ash in a container made from plastic or any other combustible material.

8.Extended burning

8.1It is possible to get the appliance to burn for extended periods of time. In order to do this:

—De-ash prior to final refuelling.

—Set air controls to low combustion settings.

This will gradually blacken the glass but it will clear when operated at a high temperature for a short period.

—Use smokeless fuel or small, thick logs.

9.OVER-FIRING

9.1Do not over-fill with fuel or run at high temperatures for long periods or over-firing can occur. If the flue pipe, flue collar or top plate glow red the appliance is over-firing. Close the air controls to reduce the temperature.

9.2Over-firing can cause permanent damage to the appliance.

10.Chimney fire

10.1If a chimney fire occurs:

—Shut all air controls immediately.

—Evacuate the building.

—Call the fire brigade.

—Do not re-enter the building until it is confirmed safe.

10.2Do not use the appliance after a chimney fire until:

a)It has been inspected by a registered installer*, confirming the appliance is safe to use.

b)The chimney system has been inspected and swept by a chimney sweep, confirming the system is structurally sound and free from obstruction**.

c)It is repaired as required before re-use. Use only genuine Stovax replacement parts to keep your appliance in safe, efficient working order.

11.GENERAL CLEANING

11.1Clean and inspect the appliance regularly, especially in periods of heavy use. Regular cleaning and maintenance will help give many years of safe use.

Allow appliance to cool thoroughly to avoid risk of burns. Clean regularly, according to level of use.

Remove the ash completely (see User Instructions, Section 7).

Check the internal components for damage. Do not use the appliance if any parts are broken or damaged. Replace damaged parts with genuine Stovax replacement parts to keep the appliance in safe, efficient working order.
