Smoke control areas (The Clean Air Act 1993 & Smoke Control Areas)
Under the Clean Air Act local authorities may declare the whole or part of the district of the authority to be a smoke control area. It is an offense to emit smoke from a chimney of a building, from a furnace or from any fixed boiler if located in a designated smoke control area. It is also an offence to acquire an “unauthorized fuel” for use within a smoke control area unless it is used in an “exempt” appliance (“exempted” from the controls which generally apply in the smoke control area).
In England appliances are exempted by publication on a list by the Secretary of State in accordance with changes made to section 20 and 21 of the Clean Air Act 1993 by section 15 of the Deregulation Act 2015. In Scotland appliances are exempted by publication on a list by Scottish Ministers under section 50 of the Regulatory Reform
(Scotland) Act 2014.
Similarly in Northern Ireland appliances are exempted by publication on a list by the Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs under Section 16 of the Environmental Better Regulation Act (Northern Ireland) 2016. In Wales appliances are exempted by regulations made by Welsh Ministers.
Your local authority is responsible for implementing the Clean Air Act 1993 including designation and supervision of smoke control areas and you can contact them for details of Clean Air Act requirements.
Further information on the requirements of the Clean Air Act can be found here : https://www.gov.uk/smoke-control-area-rules
The following list of M-Series models :

• M-Series Steel 5kW Widescreen stove (MSteel-5WS)
• M-Series Cast 5kW Widescreen stove (MCast-5WS)
• M-Series Glass 5kW Widescreen stove (MGlass-5WS)

are currently exempt or have been recommended as suitable for use in smoke control areas, when burning wood logs and when fitted with a factory set mechanical stop, to prevent secondary air closure beyond the 22mm open position respectively.

Recommended fuels

Wood
As a natural and renewable fuel, wood is the first choice for burning, however burning wood requires a little effort and planning. Any type of wood is suitable (though hardwood is preferable) provided it is well seasoned and has a moisture content below 20%. This usually implies that the timber has been suitably stored to allow moisture to evaporate for at least 9 months in the case of soft wood, and at least 24 months in the case of hard wood. We recommend that for general burning, wood should be split into logs of no more than 100mm (4 inches) diameter. If, when burning wood, you see signs of sticky tar inside the appliance or chimney, your wood is ‘green’ or too wet and requires further seasoning. An electronic moisture meter can be obtained in order to determine the moisture content of your wood fuel. Wet wood must not be used as this will greatly contribute to the creation of tar and creosote which may, in extreme cases, run down the chimney in liquid form. This will seriously damage both the chimney and the appliance and increase the risk of a chimney fire.

• DO NOT BURN Bituminous house coal or petroleum coke in this appliance.
• DO NOT BURN Any form of plastics in this appliance.

Before using your stove

M-Series stoves are designed to be operated with the fire door closed at all times, apart from refuelling (when alight) or cleaning (when cold). Never leave the appliance unattended for an extended length of time with the door open. Prior to lighting the stove for the first time, please check with the installer that:

• Installation and all building work is complete. (Refer to the installation guide.)
• The chimney is sound, has been swept and is free from obstruction.
• Building Regulations and any local by-laws have been followed during installation.
• All firebox liner panels and throat plate are in place.
• The chimney draw has been checked and is within specification (between 0.1mb to 0.2mb, or 10-20 Pascal’s). This ensures your stove will operate predictably and efficiently.
• Carbon Monoxide detector is correctly installed in the same room as the appliance.
• Suitable provision for combustion and ventilation air, depending upon building regulations have been undertaken by the installation fitter.
• Consideration must be given for the need for extra ventilation if another heating source needing air is to be operated simultaneously. If an extraction fan is proposed to be fitted to a connecting area of the house, after the stove has been installed, professional advice should be sought from a qualified engineer.
• Before the first use of the stove, CHECK to ensure that the installer has secured the appliance to the floor or hearth.

Ensure that you have read and understood these instructions before lighting the fire. Always wear suitable protective heat resistant gloves when refuelling your stove, such as the gauntlets supplied with your stove. Always keep the gauntlet away from naked flames and sparks, when re-fuelling the appliance. We recommend that you light a small fire for the first few days of use to cure the paint and allow the castings to relax. You may hear your stove produce clicking or ticking noises whilst it heats up or cools down. This is completely normal and is produced by the expansion and contraction of the steel components in your stove when its temperature changes.

Air inlet controls

Air Inlet
Your stove requires air to function, this enters the appliance at 2 points; majority of the combustion air enters below the appliance, via the air controls, the remaining air enters via the rear cover, as indicated below.

NOTE: DO NOT COVER OR PARTIALLY OBSTRUCT THE AIR INLET OPENINGS FOR THE APPLIANCE.

Primary air control location
The primary air control regulates the air entering the fire box chamber, suppling air below the fuel bed. This control is situated below the fire door on the right hand side, when facing the front of the stove.

Primary air control
The primary air control regulates the air entering the fire box chamber, suppling air to the under side of the fuel bed. The control has an internal rotary plate with slots, housed inside the body of the appliance and is located below the right hand corner of the fire door assembly. Sliding the control lever to the right, as far as it will go, achieves the fully open position, see figure 1. Sliding it to the left will shut down / reduce the air as shown in figure 2.

Secondary air control location
The secondary air control regulates the air entering the fire box chamber, suppling an overdraught of air to the fuel bed, together with supplying air in front of the glass viewing panel within the door assembly. This is known also as the air wash system. This control is situated below the fire door on the left hand side, when facing the front of the stove.

Secondary Air Control
The control has an internal rotary plate with slots, housed inside the body of the appliance and is located below the left hand corner of the fire door assembly, when looking at the front of the appliance.
Sliding the control lever to the right, as far as it will go, achieves the fully open position, see figure 3. Sliding it to the left will shut down / reduce the air as shown in figure 4.

NOTE: If your stove installation is within a smoke control area, it will be fitted with a restrictor plate acting as a mechanical stop for the secondary air control. This will not fully close, thus allowing a bleed of air to the fire box to reduce smoke emissions.

Tertiary Air
All models have tertiary air supply that can be seen working during certain conditions during the burning period. The outlet for the tertiary air, is at the rear of the fire box chamber, just below the throat plate through a series of small holes within the rear liner brick (See page 6). Tertiary air is employed, to provide additional air to the upper areas of the fire box to promote additional burning of the unburnt combustion gases and thus ensuring a cleaner burn emission. There is no user adjustment required for the tertiary air, as the required air supply is factory set during the production process.

Lighting your stove

1. Smoke control areas
   Please check whether your dwelling is located in a smoke control area before installation or use. Please check with your local authority or https://www.gov.uk/smoke-control-area-rules.

2. Fuel overloading
   The maximum amount of fuel specified in this manual should not be exceeded, overloading can cause excess smoke. Please see technical data section in this manual.

3. Operation with door left open
   Operation with the door open can cause excess smoke. The appliance MUST NOT be operated with the appliance door left open except as directed in the instructions.

4. Dampers / Air controls left open
   Operation with the air controls or appliance dampers open can cause excess smoke. The appliance must not be operated with the air controls, appliance damper or door(s) left open except as directed in these instructions.

Burning wood

When wood is burnt ,it is in fact the volatile gases released from the wood, that burn and this requires a good supply of air coming from above the fuel. For this reason we will use all the air inlets while igniting the stove, but will then reduce this to air coming from the air wash system and overdraught. As much as 40% of the heat from burning wood is obtained from secondary combustion and this can be severely hampered by air entering the fire box from below the fuel.

1. Set the fire, by placing several layers of dry kindling wood into a criss-cross grid pattern on top of the grate bars. The use of two or three fire lighters may assist in lighting the kindling.
2. Fully open the primary and secondary air controls and light the firelighters and/or kindling wood.
3. After the kindling has caught light, you should almost close the fire door leaving it ajar by about 10mm. This will aid flue draw during the initial lighting of the fire.
4. The flue temperature and draw should be established after five minutes and the kindling reduced to form an ember bed. Carefully load the stove with well-seasoned wood and fully close the fire door.
5. After ten minutes, fully close the primary air control and regulate the secondary air control to control the burn rate and maintain clear glass, typically by reducing to approximately half open.

Warning – Fume / Smoke emissions
Properly installed, with a suitable flue or chimney, operated and maintained correctly, this appliance will not emit fumes into the dwelling. Occasional fumes when de-ashing and refuelling may occur. However, persistent fume emission is potentially dangerous and must be investigated by an approved/registered installer.

WARNING!
STOP USING THE APPLIANCE IF YOU SMELL FUMES OR SEE SMOKE ESCAPING.

If fume emission does persist, the following immediate actions should be taken:

• Open doors and windows to ventilate room.
• Let the fire die or extinguish and safely dispose of fuel from the appliance.
• Check for flue or chimney blockage, and clean if required.

Seek expert advice from your approved installer. Do not attempt to re-light the fire until the cause of the fume emission has been identified and corrected.

Refueling onto a low fire bed
If there is insufficient burning material in the fire bed to light a new fuel charge, excessive smoke emission can occur. Refueling must be carried out onto a sufficient quantity of glowing embers and ash that the new fuel charge will ignite in a reasonable period. If there are too few embers in the fire bed, add suitable kindling for ignition to prevent excessive smoke.
Important notes on usage, to meet the requirements of Smoke Control exemption –

• Always recharge onto hot embers.

• After re-charging, fully open both the primary and secondary air controls for the following times, in order to establish good combustion –
  M- Series 5kW Widescreen — 2 minutes

• Do not leave the appliance unattended until flames are well established.

• Periodic burning out of the fuel bed at high output to combust any remaining charcoal.

Smoke Control Area (The Clean Air Act 1993 & Smoke Control Areas)
If the stove is to be installed in a designated Smoke Control Area (further information can be found via https://www.gov.uk/smoke-control-area-rules ) then the installer will have fitted the restrictor plate for the secondary air lever, to prevent total closure of this air control.

NOTE :

• The minimum air control setting is governed in manufacture to meet the requirements of Smoke Control exemption and as a result the appliance will NOT shut down completely when in the minimum air position setting.
• Removal or modification of the fitted air control plate (See Fig. 5) is illegal when the appliance is installed in a smoke exemption area and doing so may result in prosecution and fine.

Typical burn for nominal output
To perform the most efficient burn at the nominal rated output please consult the specification table at the rear of this manual. Please note, many factors can affect the nominal output, so the stated weights of fuel (Seasoned hard wood, Beech) are a guide, which is a representation to laboratory test burn conditions.

Further information for all stove owners

Reduced burning (Slow Combustion)
When wood is burnt slowly in a closed appliance (e.g.: air controls at the minimum setting), it produces moisture and tar, which will create condensation and deposits in the chimney. This effect can be minimised by burning hard for a short period, fifteen to twenty minutes twice a day.
To avoid chimney problems your appliance should not be burnt at a reduced burn rate without a period of fast burning. Fast burning is when the stove is burnt with a ’lively flame’ and a higher temperature. We strongly advise against stoking the fire with wood and reducing the air inlets before leaving the stove to extinguish (perhaps when retiring to bed) as this can lead to a cooling of the stove and flue, also resulting in incomplete combustion, sooty deposits and high levels of pollutant gases released into the environment.

Over firing
DO NOT over fire your appliance. Firing the stove at maximum for prolonged periods may result in over-firing. If the chimney connector or casing glows red the appliance is being over-fired and this may result in a chimney fire. Other signs include warping and a red-oxide coloring will demonstrate the over-heating of internal parts; body paint which has turned dusty white is also indicative of such use.

Chimney fires
Used in the correct manner, with the correct fuel and regular maintenance a chimney fire should never occur, however in the event of a chimney fire, the following procedure should be actioned without delay:

• Call the fire service—DIAL 999
• Immediately close all of the air inlet supplies on the appliance, to reduce the air supply to the stove.
• Move items of furniture and combustibles away from the surrounding area of the stove, to reduce the risk of fire and allow access for the fire service.
• Ensure access to the loft space is available.
• Evacuate the property.

Periods of non-use (summer months)
Please ensure that your stove is left clean and moving components are well lubricated with a water-repelling corrosion inhibitor for the summer months (during periods of prolonged non-use). If possible store the throat plate outside of the stove. Check all moveable components at regular intervals, to ensure they are moving freely. Allow air movement through the stove by opening the primary air inlet control to about half way, open or leave the door ajar. This will allow a free flow of air through the appliance thus preventing moisture and condensation forming inside the stove and chimney.
This preventative maintenance will ensure your stove stays in the best condition for the coming winter months.

Ash removal
The ash pan should be emptied when the level of ash reaches the top of the ash pan. On no account should the ash be allowed to build up, as this will greatly reduce the life span of the ash pan itself.
To remove the ash pan ALWAYS USE the supplied gauntlet/glove & operating tool –

• Open the door of the stove, pausing briefly when ajar so as to allow the fire to adjust to the increased air supply.
• Insert the fork end of the operating tool into the ash pan (see Fig. 6.).
• Carefully withdraw the ash pan from the fire box chamber.
• Empty the ash into a suitable metal container.

Replace the ash pan into the stove, reversing the above procedure and close the fire door.

WARNING: ALWAYS USE THE HOT GLOVE SUPPLIED.

Extreme care must be taken if the appliance is under fire, risk of injury or burn.

WARNING
Ash can be very HOT!. Care must be taken not to burn hands or house-hold objects with falling embers—ALWAYS USE THE GLOVE SUPPLIED. Empty only into a metal container. Even if the ash appears cold, red hot embers maybe concealed and could easily start a fire or cause an injury.

Replacement parts
Genuine replacement spare parts can be obtained from your Arada retailer /dealer or via our website https://www.aradastovesandspares.com. You can find a complete list of spares and consumables such as liners, replacement grate parts and throat plates as well as items to enhance its visual appearance and efficiency such as stove paint and rope kits. It is worth noting that the fitting of non-official parts to your stove will invalidate the guarantee.

Classification
All M-Series stoves are classed as intermittent operation. There by meaning, to give nominal rated output, you will have to refuel a minimum of 45min for wood, as stated in EN 13240:2011 +A2:2004.

Adverse weather conditions
If due to adverse weather conditions your stove does not operate correctly and causes the stove to emit smoke, do not treat it as a nuisance, this smoke will indicate that carbon monoxide is being emitted into the room. Extinguish the stove by reducing the firing rate, open windows and allow the stove’s fuel to burn out before closing the windows. The probable cause is insufficient draw, check flue ways and have the chimney tested for flue pressure.

Door glass
The door glass should remain clear during normal burning. However under certain conditions, such as burning at a low or slow rate, using damp wood or overnight burning, the glass may become somewhat blackened. To remedy this, operate the appliance at a fast rate. Alternatively when the stove is cold, open the door and clean the inside face of the glass with a damp cloth or with glass cleaner.

Fire door handle
Care must be taken when opening and closing the fire door as any surrounding surfaces will be VERY HOT. The door catch mechanism utilises a ‘click to close’, system where by a receiving pin is located on the body of the stove and a sprung roller catch is located on the fire door. To operate, simply pull on the handle and the door opens, closing the door is simply a gently push on the handle to engage the catch.

PLEASE NOTE: GENTLY FORCE IS ONLY REQUIRE TO OPEN & CLOSE THE FIRE DOOR—FORCEFULLY PULLING OR SLAMMING THE DOOR CAN RESULT IN ASH EMBERS BEING DISCHARGED TOGETHER WITH DAMAGE TO THE STOVE & FLUE CONNECTION.

WARNING!
ALLWAYS USE THE GAUNTLETS WHEN USING THE FIRE DOOR HANDLE— RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY MAY OCCUR. CAUTION MUST BE GIVEN WHEN RE-FUELLING THE APPLIANCE, KEEP THE GAUNTLET AWAY FROM NAKED FLAMES & SPARKS.

How heat is delivered by your stove

Radiant heat
All M-Series stoves radiate heat into the room. The radiated heat is most intense at the front of the stove, especially through the door glass and less intense the further you move away from the stove.
This radiated heat is delivered as infrared rays which heat the objects they strike. It is then these objects (such as the chimney breast, hearth etc.) which heat the surrounding air. Please note, All the M-Series stove models have been tested and are suitable for used on a non-constructional hearth.

Care for your stove

The need for regular maintenance on your stove will ensure, safe and efficient use of your appliance. The following item listing should be checked and inspected by a competent person or engineer on a regular basis.

IMPORTANT
PLEASE ENSURE THAT THE STOVE IS UNLIT AND COLD, BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO INSPECT THE BELOW ITEMS –

Adjusting the door hinges
Once the appliance has been under fire for a period of time the fire door may appear to have moved out of alignment with relation to the door aperture or catch. This is quite normal and due to the settling of the casting. If the fire door needs to be raised, please follow the instructions below:

• Open the fire door so that it is at right angles to the front of the stove.
• Apply a lifting pressure to remove the door from the hinge assemblies, it may be necessary to move the door assembly from left to right whilst applying an upward force, to release the door from the hinges.
• Drop one washer (M6) over the top hinge pin. Align the door assembly onto the hinge and apply a downward pressure to re-fit the door onto the hinge assemblies.
• Check & repeat again if necessary.

Liners/firebricks
The stoves liners (also known as firebricks) may become cracked after long periods of heavy use or after being knocked by the loading of fuel or a poorly aimed fire poker. If the liners are still staying in situ and are able to support themselves correctly there is no need to replace them. Cracked liners will not in themselves effect the performance of the stove.

Throat plate
The throat plate can be removed from the stove, by lifting the throat plate up and removing the rear liner, this will then allow the rear of the throat plate to swing down. Disengage the front lip of the throat plate from the upper location bracket. Rotate the throat plate, diagonally across the firebox, manipulating the plate through the door opening. Any accumulated deposits should be cleaned off, this is best done with a brush. Whilst doing so, inspect the throat plate for any damage. Replacement throat plates can be sourced from your local dealer or via the internet at www.aradastovesandspares.com

Fire door seal
The rope seal around the edges of the main fire door should also be checked. Look for signs of fraying, peeling away or the ends not meeting. If the rope is unable to create a good seal with the stove body it should be replaced. A poor seal will decrease your ability to control the burn rate and its efficiency whilst leading to an increase in heat lost through the flue.

Cracked glass
It is not recommended to operate the stove with cracked glass; this can lead to over firing due to air leaking into the firebox and it may fail completely leading to personal injury or a fire.
You should discontinue use of your stove until it has been repaired. You can source replacement glass kits from www.aradastovesandspares.com or your local retailer.

Chimney / Flue Sweeping
Sweeping should be carried out with an appropriate-sized bristle brush and rods to suit chimney size and type. As with all appliances regular sweeping of the flue/chimney is essential to avoid dangers of blockage and the escape of poisonous fumes. Access for cleaning should also be incorporated in the chimney (e.g.: soot door or access through the register plate etc).
It is important that the flue connections, flue pipe and chimney be cleaned prior to lighting after a prolonged period of non use.
