1.0 Installing your Morsø stove
1.1 Unpacking the stove
Carefully lift the stove from the wooden pallet and set it carefully in place.
We recommend that two people perform the assembly and installation procedure.
Ø4 weighs 80 kg. The stove is intended for intermittent use.
1.2 Installing the stove
The stove and chimney installations MUST comply to all current National and
Local Building Regulations; your approved Ø-Collection dealer or your local
building control officer can advise regarding this. Ultimately, it is you and
your installer who is responsible that the installation complies.
1.3 Chimney sweeping
It may also be wise to consult your local chimney sweep before installing the
stove. After your stove has been installed, it is advisable to have the
chimney checked and swept at least once a year. In any case, if your chimney
has not been used for some time, it should be inspected for deterioration,
bird nests, etc. before it is put back into use.
1.4 Stove placement/clearance requirements
Clearance requirements apply only if the stove is placed near to combustible
materials. Permitted clearances to combustible materials are also indicated on
the data plate on the rear of the stove.

In situations where the stove is to be fitted into a brick or non-combustible
recess, we recommend that the stove is installed with at least 10 cm clearance
to the wall, this will allow room air to circulate around the stove; also the
maintenance of the outside stove is easier. When applied to masonry, a layer
of wallpaper is normally classified as a non-combustible surface.
Clearance to combustible surfaces in front of stove:
Model Ø4
Distance to combustible materials in front of the stove 700 mm.
The clearances stated above are minimum distances, but consideration ought to be given to whether furniture or other items can be affected by heat. A wood- burning stove gets hot when it is fired. The necessary caution must therefore be observed, particularly where children or the infirm are present.
Hearth requirements: The stove MUST be fitted in accordance with Local and
National Building Regulations.
The O-serie stoves has been independently certified. During the safety test
the floor temperature did not exceed 100°C. The stoves may therefor be placed
onto a hearth made of non-combustible board/sheet material or tiles at least
12 mm. thick. Consideration should also be given as to the stove weight to
ensure that the underlying floor is able to bear the weight.
The handle will get hot when the stove is in use, for this reason a safety mitten is provided.

1.5 The chimney
Only if National or Local Regulations permit are you permitted to connect a
stove into a chimney that is shared by another appliance. YOU MUST be aware of
any applicable Regulations in this respect.
The wood-burning stove must never been connected to a chimney to which a gas-
burning stove or appliance is connected.
An efficient modern stove places heavy demands on the chimney, and you should
have the chimney regularly swept and inspected by your approved chimney sweep.
The cross-sectional area of the chimney (at its narrowest point) must comply
with National and Local Building Regulations. Generally, the area needed for
an Ø-Collection wood-burning stove installation should measure at least 175
cm2 (150 mm diameter). Exceptions to this are: Smoke Exempt Morsø stoves
fitted with a 125mm diameter flue collar. These can be connected to a chimney
system or liner with a minimal cross sectional area of 123 cm² (125mm
diameter)
An over-sized chimney is generally hard to keep warm and results in poor
draft. In cases where there is an oversized masonry chimney, it is recommended
that the chimney be lined using an appropriately chimney lining system with
the correct internal diameter. With respect to the chimney termination, all
chimneys should terminate in accordance with National and Local Building
Regulations. Note that National and Local Regulations also apply with regard
to the placement of chimneys and flues in connection with thatched roofs. See
the section on Draft Conditions, 1.9.
The chimney or flue system must be equipped with access doors for inspection
and cleaning doors. The size of the cleaning door in the chimney must at least
equal that of the crosssectional area of the chimney.
1.6 Pipe Connection
Your stove is supplied ready for a top flue connection (4). The rear flue
outlet is fitted with a cover plate and is situated on the back panel. Where a
rear flue installation is required, unbolt the flue collar. Unbolt the cover
plate and install it onto the top of the stove. The flue collar can then be
bolted over the rear flue outlet using the bolts and clamps provided.
Make sure that the baffles (2 and 3), the firebricks, and the riddling grate
are positioned correctly.
Placement of draft reducer The Ø4 is supplied with a fitted draft reducer (1)
as shown in the diagram. Where a rear flue exit (3) is required, the draft
reducer is not to be used.
5
1.7 Connecting the stove to a masonry chimney
A wall sleeve should be bricked securely into the wall of the chimney at the
appropriate height and the stovepipe inserted centrally. The pipe must not
extend into the actual chimney opening, but rather must reach only to the
inside of the chimney aperture. The gap between the stovepipe and sleeve must
be sealed using glass fibre packing rope.
Only use stovepipe components that comply to National and Local Building
Regulations.
1.8 Connecting to a stainless steel insulated chimney system
If your installation involves taking the chimney straight up and through the
ceiling, you must comply with National, Local Building Regulations or flue
manufacturers instructions concerning clearances to combustible materials such
as walls, floor joists and ceilings. The joint between the stove flue collar
and the stovepipe must also be sealed using the glass fibre rope provided. It
is important that the insulated flue system is properly supported both at
ceiling level and at roof level. THE STOVE MUST NOT BEAR THE WEIGHT OF THE
CHIMNEY SYSTEM (See chimney manufacturer’s instructions). Excessive weight on
the stove will inhibit expansion and could lead to damage of the stove top.
Damage caused to the stove in this way would not be covered by the
manufacturers guarantee.
In the event that a chimney fire occurs as a result of faulty operation or
prolonged use of damp wood fuel, close the air vents completely and contact
your local fire department immediately.
Be aware of the following:
Cleaning procedure: Discuss this with chimney sweep or qualified installer
prior to or during the stove installation
Chimney draft: If the chimney draft is naturally poor it is better to install
the flue from the top of the stove so as to minimise any internal resistance
of the flue gases.
Avoid having any more than 2 bends in the flue system and limit the length of
the offset between bends.
Fresh air supply A wood-burning stove requires air for combustion and
therefore you may need to install additional ventilation to the room,
especially so in well insulated houses. If the air supply in inadequate the
chimney draft may be too weak, with the possible result that the stove will
not burn properly; smoke spillage may also occur during the refuelling
process.
On a positive note, a properly installed wood-burner will give even the most
efficient houses a pleasant and natural ventilation.
6
1.9 Draft conditions
If smoke spillage occurs when the fire door is opened, it is probably due to
poor chimney draft. This type of stove requires at least 12 pa of chimney
draft to achieve satisfactory combustion and smoke spillage prevention.
However, in cases where the stove door is opened too vigorously you could
expect that slight smoke spillage may occur. If there is too much draft from
the chimney, a damper device can be installed in the chimney to reduce the
draft. Please note that this damper device must not close the aperture area in
the chimney entirely. There must be a clear opening of at least 20 cm2 when
the damper is closed.
If you have any doubts, you may want to have your installer measure the draft
in the chimney.
Stove Type Ø4
The Flue Gas Temperature at the rated output is (°C) relative to 20° C

The Flue Gas Flow is (gr/sec.) 4,1
Draft conditions
The chimney’s draft is the resulting effect within the flue caused by the
difference in temperature within the flue and the cooler temperature outside.
Other factors that can influence the level of draft include the length of the
flue, insulation of the chimney, adverse weather conditions or tall buildings
or trees nearby the flue terminal.
Poor draft occurs when: · The atmospheric temperature difference is too low,
e.g. a poorly insulated chimney.
If the chimney is excessively cool, it may help to `prime’ the flue before the
fire is lit. Just place a screwed-up sheet of newspaper in the flue-ways of
the stove and ignite. · The outside temperature is too high, e.g. during the
summer months. · There is no air movement (wind) outside. · The chimney is not
tall enough, with the result that the terminal sits in the lee of the roof
surface or in the vicinity of tall trees or neighbouring buildings. These
conditions are also associated with downdraft where the flue gases are pushed
back down the chimney. · Flue draft is diluted by residual air entering the
chimney, e.g. due to inadequate flue-pipe joints or leaks at the cleaning door
or flue collar. · Unsealed, unused fireplaces are connected to the chimney. ·
The flue is blocked, e.g. by soot, due to inadequate cleaning, loose debris or
even a birds nest. · The house is too tightly sealed (see section on Fresh air
supply).
A good draft is achieved when: · The temperature difference between the
chimney and outside is high. This also ap-
plies during firing, when the need is greatest. · The weather is clear and
there is a good wind. · The chimney is of the proper height, i.e. minimum 4
meters over the stove and the
termination adequately clear of the roof line.

2.0 Firing the stove/Using your stove
The heat output of your stove is regulated by means of the 3 air inlets. A
preheated air supplied to the fire across the glass window. The air is
supplied when the handle under the ash lip is pushed right in. Another air
supply that passes through the shaking grate is used when fuel with low gas
content (coke) is used. The air is controlled when the handle under the ash
lip is pushed right out. A third air supply is a constant supply of pre-heated
air introduced into the firebox via the unique baffle system. This air supply
helps to establish an even more complete combustion process of both fuel and
gases. Control of this is factory fixed and cannot be adjusted by the user.
The riddling grate is controlled by the riddling arm behind the door. Your new
Morsø stove is EN-tested and recommended to be fired with wood. The stove is
intended for intermittent use.
N.B!
Wood is a material that contains a great deal of gas (approximately 75 %). The
gases are released when the wood is lit and heated up. For this reason, it is
important that the gases are ignited quickly after stoking. If the wood just
lies smouldering, especially after re-stoking, a lot of smoke is created,
which, in the worst case, may cause an explosive ignition of the gasses,
resulting in damage to the stove.
In order to ignite the gases that are released from the wood, and to keep
clear, lasting flames during the combustion process, it is important to let in
the required quantity of oxygen (air supply) at all times. The setting of the
air supply, the method of ignition and the lighting intervals depend on the
draught in the chimney, the wind and weather, the amount of heat required, the
fuel, etc. This means that it may take some time before you get to know the
correct functioning of the stove under any given circumstances.
Although you can fire your Morsø stove with almost all kinds of wood, you
should not fire with wet wood, or unseasoned wood. Wood ought to be stored
under a roof for at least 1 year, and preferably 2 years, with free access to
wind. Wood should be chopped as soon as possible after felling if it is to dry
quickly. The wood can be used once the moisture content is less than 20%.
During the official test, all stoves are tested with wood with a moisture
content of 16% ± 2.
Never use driftwood, as it usually has a high salt content, which damages both
the stove and the chimney. Impregnated and painted wood and chipboard emit
poisonous smoke and fumes, so they should not be used as fuel either.
Please note that liquid fuel may not be used in the stove.
Pieces of wood with a diameter greater than 10 cm should always be chopped.
The pieces of wood should be short enough to be able to lie flat over the
layer of embers, with air at both ends. The maximum length of fuel in the
stove is 32-34 cm. The maximum quantity of fuel is 2.5 kg/hour (max. 3 pieces
of wood each time you re-stoke). The first few times you light the stove, the
fire should be moderate, so that the heatresistant paint can harden before
firing more vigorously. During the hardening phase, the paint may develop
obnoxious smoke and smell the first time it is lit, which is very normal. Make
sure that the room is well ventilated during this period.
When heating up or cooling down, the material is exposed to major temperature
differences that may cause the stove to give off creaking sounds.

The heating capacity of the stove is regulated with an air-slide control, positioned under the ash lip.
The secondary air supply is open and the primary air supply is closed.
Both the primary and secondary air supply are closed.
The primary air supply is open and the secondary air supply is sufficiently open for using alternative types of fuel.

2.1 Lighting and fuelling intervals
A lot of air is needed when first lighting the stove. When starting with a
totally cold stove, it may be helpful to leave the door ajar (2-3cm) during
the first few minutes; the air intake should be fully open. Wood fuel burns
well when placed onto an ash bed on the grate of the stove. To achieve this
you should burn roughly 1-2 kg of dry kindling the first time you light the
stove. You should build and maintain the ash bed to a thickness of
approximately 1 cm.
1. A layer of coals will form rapidly if the stove is lit with 2 – 4 fire
lighters or 7 – 10 rolled up sheets of newspaper, underneath roughly 1 kg of
dry kindling.
2. Fully open the the secondary air supply. Push the air control right in.
3. After the paper/firelighters have caught fire leave the fire door ajar 2-3
cm so that the chimney draws well.
4. After 5-10 minutes the chimney draft should be established, at this point
close the fire door. If all the necessary conditions are met, a nice layer of
embers will start to accumulate after another 15 – 20 minutes.
10
5. Refuelling of your stove should be done while there are still glowing
embers in the bed. Spread the embers across the bottom, but concentrated
mostly towards the front of the stove.
6. Place three pieces of fuel weighing roughly 0.6 kg and measuring about 25
cm in length across the embers in one layer, with spacing of roughly 1 cm
between the pieces of wood. Recommended length and weight are shown on the
diagram on page 9..
7. When the secondary air supply is opened all the way and the door is
closed, the new fuel will ignite in a few minutes.
Important!
It is important that the fresh quantity of wood starts to burn quickly. To
ensure the fuel lights quickly, open the combustion air to max. or leave the
door ajar to allow in the amount of air needed to light the wood.
If, however, the wood only smoulders, there will be a strong build-up of
smoke, which at worst can cause an explosive ignition of the flue gases with
the risk of material damage and personal injury.
8. Once the new fuel has taken, adjust the secondary air amount to the
desired setting; optimal combustion will continue until glowing embers are
produced.
Make sure that there is always enough air (oxygen) to maintain clear, lasting
flames when, and after, reducing the amount of combustion air.
Under normal chimney draft conditions, expect to refuel your stove every 60 –
70 minutes.
9. A new charge of wood can be added by repeating steps 5 & 6.
11
The stove door should normally be opened gently the first 2 – 3 centimetres,
then you should wait until the pressure has equalised before opening the door
all the way. This technique will prevent smoke from getting out, particularly
when there is a poor draught. The stove door should never be opened when the
stove is being fired vigorously.
Once the wood has burned out, it becomes glowing charcoal. If a good layer of
embers has already formed on top of a sufficient layer of ash, the stove can
keep warm for a very long time, not least due to the favourable qualities of
the cast iron.
We would strongly recommend that you do not leave your stove alit at night. It
harms the environment, and constitutes very poor use of the wood, as the gases
in the wood do not ignite at the low temperature, but settle as soot (unburned
gases) in the chimney and stove. Extreme conditions, such as poor draught in
the chimney, large quantities of wood or wet wood, may, in the worst-case
scenario, cause an explosive ignition.
When firing in the summer period, when there is minimal need for heat, the
combustion will be poor. The stove provides too much heat, so the combustion
should be reduced. But always remember to make sure that there are lasting
flames until the wood becomes charcoal. If you want a weaker fire, stoke up
using less wood.
If you fire the stove using wet wood, a lot of the fuel’s thermal energy will
be spent forcing the water out of the wood, without releasing any heat to the
stove. This incomplete combustion results in a layer of soot being left in the
stove, pipe and chimney.

3.0 Routine stove maintenance
3.1 External maintenance
The surface of the stove is painted with heat-resistant Senotherm paint. If
the stove is used too vigorously, the painted surface may take-on a greyish
tinge. It is easily maintained by simply vacuuming the surface with a soft
brush attachment and applying two light layers of paint.
Ø-Collection stoves are painted using a Morsø Original Black (previously
called Morsø dark grey) or Morsø grey. The paint can be bought in a spray or a
can.
3.2 Internal maintenance
Ceramic glass If the stove is used and installed onto a flue with the correct
draft, very little or no deposits should appear on the ceramic glass. It is
usual for soot deposits to appear during long slumbering fires however, once
the fire has been re-established to a burn brightly, these deposits should
burn off.
If the glass window becomes thoroughly covered in soot due to faulty operation
or poor draft, the soot can be easily removed using, e.g. Stove Glass Cleaner,
but please ensure that the glass is cold before cleaning. Avoid fuelling the
stove with wood so long that it presses against the glass when the door is
closed.
Reasons for sooted glass window: · fuel is too wet (green) · pieces of
fuel/uncut wood are too thick · operating temperature of the stove is too low
· too much air coming through bottom grate · POOR FLUE DRAFT
Ceramic glass replacement Ceramic glass cannot be recycled because it has a
higher melting point that ordinary glass. If ceramic glass is mixed with
ordinary glass, the raw material is spoiled, and the reclaiming process may be
halted. Take care that the ovenproof glass does not end up among ordinary
recycled waste. That will be a great benefit to the environment.
Note: Should be handed in to a recycling station as ceramic glass.
Internal cast-iron parts and/or wear components The shaking grate, baffle
plate and other internal components that are in direct contact with the fire
are all constituted as `wear’ components or consumables, as, they are exposed
to the most wear. When used properly, these parts will last for many years,
but overly vigorous use will naturally shorten the lifespan. The
aforementioned parts are all easily replaceable.
If the baffle plate is damaged or warped and is not replaced in time, the top
plate could become subject to excessively high temperatures, which may lead to
damage here also. Note: that no unauthorised alterations to the stove design
should be undertaken, and always ensure that any replacement parts purchased
must be Ø-Collection original parts.
13
Reasons for premature wear of internal parts · Stove being used/fired too
vigorously · Too much air passing through the bottom grate · Use of
excessively dry wood (wood from old furniture) · Excessive debris collection
on baffle plate or inner fireback (see section on cleaning) · Ash level too
high in the ash pan (see section on ash).
Gaskets The rope gaskets in the door will need regular inspection in order to
ensure and maintain full control of your stove’s burning rate; over time the
rope gaskets will harden and will become less airtight; at this point you will
need to remove and replace will new. Use only the genuine gasket kit, which
comes with detailed replacement instructions.
NOTE: Normal wear components (inner parts) are not covered by Manufacturer’s
Guarantee
Maintenance products (Spare Parts, Glass Cleaner, Paint, Gasket Kit, etc) are
all available from your authorised Ø-Collection dealer.
3.3 Cleaning the stove
During normal use and sweeping of your stove and chimney, a layer of ash, soot
or debris can form, particularly on the top of the baffle plate. Any deposits
allowed to build-up over time will have an insulating effect on these parts,
thus restricting expansion; this ultimately will result in a shorter lifespan.
The chrome-iron baffle plate and bricks can easily be removed from the stove
and should be regularly checked for debris and cleaned. You must ensure that
your chimney sweep removes all soot and debris from the stove after the
sweeping process.
Your chimney should be swept at least once a year; however a regular
inspection of your stovepipe and chimney will determine whether a more
frequent approach should be adopted.
Ash In order to achieve the highest combustion temperature possible when
burning solely wood, it is important that a 1cm deep bed of ash is established
on top of the grate area. Excess ash should be removed by simply agitating the
grate by moving the riddling rod on the outside of the stove; surplus ash will
fall into the ash pan below the grate where it can be easily and safely
removed.
Be sure to empty the ash pan before it gets completely full; if the ash level
reaches the underside of the grate, air flow through the grate will be
restricted and will lead to over-heating and premature wear of the grate
parts.
When emptying the ash pan always dump the waste ash into a metal container
(dustbin) where it can fully cool before being taken away by your refuse
collector. Ash from a woodburning stove does not benefit your garden as
fertiliser.
14
4.0 Alternative fuel types
Your new Ø-Collection stove is EN-approved for burning wood. However, the
stove is capable of burning other solid fuels as manufactured smokeless coal
or good quality anthracite (stove nuts).
BITUMINOUS HOUSE COAL SHOULD NEVER BE USED IN YOUR STOVE.
Lighting with solid fuel All air vents must be fully open during the lighting
process.
Start by placing 5-10 crumpled sheets of newspaper or 2 firelighters on the
grate of the stove; then carefully spread approximately 1 kg of well-dried
kindling on the top. Light the paper/firelighters. Once the kindling has fully
ignited, gradually add a small quantity of solid fuel, adding a little bit
more once it has ignited. Continue in this manner until the entire grate is
covered with glowing coals. The level of fuel in the stove should never exceed
the level of the front grate. Once the bottom half of the fuel bed is glowing,
you should partly close the bottom vent (on the ash pit door). Once the stove
has reached your desired temperature you can maintain the output by opening
further for more heat or closing for less heat. The secondary air regulator
must always be open just enough so that the flames burn almost clearly and the
ceramic glass window stays clean.
Note: In cases where smokeless fuels containing petrocoke are burned, a pale
greyish layer may be deposited on the inner glass surface when the stove is
lit. Fuels containing a high content petrocoke may cause a glistening in the
surface of the ceramic glass. Although visible, the structure of the glass
will remain intact and the stove safe. Glass affected in this way is not
covered by manufacturer’s guarantee.
In order to maintain the combustion process, the entire grate area must remain
covered by glowing coals. If the coal layer is too shallow you will have less
heat.
You must empty the ash pan whenever it becomes full. Different fuels have
different ash content and therefore the regularity of the de-ashing process
can vary.
Fuel storage Your fuel supply should always be stored in a suitable, weather-
tight coal bunker. These are usually available through your approved coal
merchant.

5.0 HETAS amendments
Health and safety precautions Special care must be taken when installing the
stove such that the requirements of the Health and Safety at Work Act are met.
Handling Adequate facilities must be available for loading, unloading and site
handling.
Fire Cement Some types of fire cement are caustic and should not be allowed to
come into contact with the skin. In case of contact wash immediately with
plenty of water.
Asbestos This stove contains no asbestos. If there is a possibility of
disturbing any asbestos in the course of installation then please seek
specialist guidance and use appropriate protective equipment.
Metal Parts When installing or servicing this stove care should be taken to
avoid the possibility of personal injury.
Note of references to the current UK regulations In all cases the installation
must comply with current Building Regulations, Local Authority Byelaws and
other specifications or regulations as they affect the installation of the
stove. It should be noted that the Building Regulations requirements may be
met by adopting the relevant recommendations given in British Standards BS
8303, BS EN 15287-1:2007 as an alternative means to achieve an equivalent
level of performance to that obtained following the guidance given in Approved
Document J.
Please note that it is a legal requirement under England and Wales Building
Regulations that the installation of the stove is either carried out under
Local Authority Building Control approval or is installed by a Competent
Person registered with a Government approved Competent Persons Scheme. HETAS
Ltd operate such a Scheme and a listing of their Registered Competent Persons
can be found on their website at www.hetas.co.uk.
This stove must not be installed into a chimney that serves any other heating
appliance.
More detailed advice about existing chimney usage NOTE: A chimney height of
not less than 4.5 metres measured vertically from the outlet of the stove to
the top of the chimney should be satisfactory. Alternatively the calculation
procedure given in EN 13384-1 may be used as the basis for deciding whether a
particular chimney design will provide sufficient draught. The outlet from the
chimney should be above the roof of the building in accordance with the
provisions of Building Regulations Approved Document J.
If installation is into an existing chimney then it must be sound and have no
cracks or other faults which might allow fumes into the house. Older
properties, especially, may have chimney faults or the cross section may be
too large i.e. more than 230 mm x 230 mm. Remedial action should be taken, if
required, seeking expert advice, if necessary. If it is found necessary to
line the chimney then a flue liner suitable for solid fuel must be used in
accordance with Building Regulations Approved Document J. 16
Any existing chimney must be clear of obstruction and have been swept clean
immediately before installation of the stove. If the stove is fitted in place
of an open fire then the chimney should be swept one month after installation
to clear any soot falls which may have occurred due to the difference in
combustion between the stove and the open fire.
If there is no existing chimney then any new system must be to the designation
described above and in accordance with Building Regulations Approved Document
J.
A single wall metal fluepipe is suitable for connecting the stove to the
chimney but is not suitable for use as the complete chimney. The chimney and
connecting fluepipe must have a minimum diameter of 150 mm and its dimension
should be not less than the size of the outlet socket of the stove.
Any bend in the chimney or connecting fluepipe should not exceed 45°. 90°
bends should not be used.
Combustible material should not be located where the heat dissipating through
the walls of fireplaces or flues could ignite it. Therefore when installing
the stove in the presence of combustible materials due account must be taken
of the guidance on the separation of combustible material given in Building
Regulations Approved Document J and also in these stove instructions.
If it is found that there is excessive draught in the chimney then a draught
stabiliser should be fitted. Fitting of a draught stabiliser will affect the
requirement for the permanent air supply into the room in which the stove is
fitted in accordance with Approved Document J (see also combustion air
supply).
Commissioning and handover Ensure all parts are fitted in accordance with the
instructions.
On completion of the installation allow a suitable period of time for any fire
cement and mortar to dry out, before lighting the stove. Once the stove is
under fire check all seals for soundness and check that the flue is
functioning correctly and that all products of combustion are vented safely to
atmosphere via the chimney terminal.
On completion of the installation and commissioning ensure that the operating
instructions for the stove are left with the customer. Ensure to advise the
customer on the correct use of the appliance and warn them to use only the
recommended fuel for the stove.
Advise the user what to do should smoke or fumes be emitted from the stove.
The customer should be warned to use a fireguard to BS 8423:2002 (Replaces BS
6539) in the presence of children, aged and/or infirm persons.
Warning note on fume emission Properly installed, operated and maintained this
appliance will not emit fumes into the dwelling. Occasional fumes from de-
ashing and re-fuelling may occur. However, persistent fume emission is
potentially dangerous and must not be tolerated. If fume emission does
persist, the following immediate actions should be taken:-
17
a) Open doors and windows to ventilate room. b) Let the fire out or eject and
safely dispose of fuel from the appliance. c) Check for flue or chimney
blockage, and clean if required. Do not attempt to relight the fire until the
cause of the fume emission has been identified and corrected. If necessary
seek expert advice.
Extractor fan There must not be an extractor fan fitted in the same room as
the stove as this can cause the stove to emit smoke and fumes into the room.
Permanent air vent The stove requires a permanent and adequate air supply in
order for it to operate safely and efficiently. In accordance with current
Building Regulations the installer may have fitted a permanent air supply vent
into the room in which the stove is installed to provide combustion air. This
air vent should not under any circumstances be shut off or sealed.
Chimney cleaning The chimney should be swept at least twice a year. It is
important that the flue connection and chimney are swept prior to lighting up
after a prolonged shutdown period.
If the stove is fitted in place of an open fire then the chimney will require
sweeping after a month of continuous operation. This is a precaution to ensure
that any “softer” deposits left from the open fire usage have not been
loosened by the higher flue temperatures generated by the closed stove.
Periods of Prolonged Non-Use If the stove is to be left unused for a prolonged
period of time then it should be given a thorough clean to remove ash and
unburned fuel residues. To enable a good flow of air through the appliance to
reduce condensation and subsequent damage, leave the air controls fully open.
Use of fireguard When using the stove in situations where children, aged
and/or infirm persons are present a fireguard must be used to prevent
accidental contact with the stove. The fireguard should be manufactured in
accordance with BS 8423:2002 (Replaces BS 6539).
Use of operating tools Always use the operating tools provided when handling
parts likely to be hot when the stove is in use.
Aerosol sprays Do not use an aerosol spray on or near the stove when it is
alight.

How to heat safely for the environment and yourself!
· Use only dry wood
Use only dry (max. 20% moisture content) and untreated wood. The fuel must be
split and 8 – 12 cm thick.
· Light
Light with dry kindling (use 1 – 2 kg). Leave the door ajar and stay close to
the stove during the lighting phase.
· Good layer of embers
Be certain to have a good layer of embers before refilling. The wood should
light within 2 minutes. If the logs do not ignite it may, in an extreme case,
cause the flue gases to ignite which may pose a risk to material damage or
personal injury.
· Refuelling
When refuelling use 2 – 3 pieces of woodno more than 2 – 2.5 kg.
· Ensure adequate air
I.e. clear and yellow flames.
· Never burn overnight
