8. AN CAUSE THE STOVE TO EMIT FUMES INTO THE ROOM FLUE HEIGHT The chimney height and the position of the chimney should conform to the Building Regulations document J Flues should be high enough to clear the products of combustion The height necessary for this will depend on the type of the appliance the height of the building the type of flue and the number of bends it and an assessment of local wind patterns However a minimum flue height of 4 5m could be satisfactory if the guidance in paragraphs 2 10 2 12 of the Approved Document J is adopted Clarke Parts amp Service 020 8988 7400 E mail Parts clarkeinternational com or Service clarkeinternational com 90 bend not sultable for solid fuel appliances Angle should not be more than 45 2 x 45 45 Offset Maximum 150mm horizontal section from back outlet of appliance Bends 90 with cleaning access Fig 7 As an alternative approach the calculation procedure within BS EN 13384 1 2005 can be used as the basis for deciding whether a chimney design will provide sufficient draught If in doubt consult the Building Regulations The outlet from a flue should be above the roof of the building in a position where the products of combustion can discharge freely and will not present a fire hazard whatever the wind conditions External flue pipes should be Twin Wall These retain the heat enabling it to rise and d
9. DJUSTED DURING OPERATION IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT PROTECTIVE GLOVES ARE WORN WHEN HANDING THESE PARTS TYPES OF FUEL This stove will function with wood or coal but in general all fuel should be dry and timber should be well seasoned so as to have a moisture content below 20 The use of damp wood will result in more soot and tar deposits being left in the chimney flu and stove and will not release heat if thermal energy is being used to drive out moisture from the fuel Other fuels can be used together with wood provided the base of the fire remains as wood or compressed block fuels Coal products can be added to Clarke 16 Parts amp Service 020 8988 7400 E mail Parts clarkeinternational com or Service clarkeinternational com this provided the volume of coal products is less than that of other fuels With solid fuels there is less need to burn the stove hard after refuelling The rate of refuelling will also be less often than with wood Avoid using the stove to incinerate other materials including household waste Avoid using green unseasoned wood treated wood such as tel egraph poles or plywood chipboard containing glues and resins which pollute the environment and cause the fire to burn too quickly Such materials can produce excessive tar or creosote which can be damaging and in extreme cases cause a fire inside the chimney The dryness of wood can be assessed by looking at the end of the log Ra

NG DUE TO THE WEIGHT OF THE STOVE IT IS RECOMMENDED AN THAT TWO PEOPLE PERFORM THE UNPACKING AND ASSEMBLY Unpack the stove and remove packing materials Open the doors and remove the legs flue collar and fixings kit from inside the stove 1 Place the stove on a soft surface such as the polystyrene packing materials from the crate and tilt the stove back 2 Attach the legs using the bolts and washers supplied as shown in Fig 1 before standing the stove upright 3 If the stove is to be connected to a vertical chimney above attach the flue adaptor as shown in Fig 2 overleaf Foot Securing Bolts 5 Clarke Parts amp Service 020 8988 7400 E mail Parts clarkeinternational com or Service clarkeinternational com using the socket head bolts nuts amp washers supplied and tighten with the key provided Ensure the fireproof gasket is correctly seated in the base of the flue adaptor 4 Check that the blanking plate is fitted in the rear panel when the vertical flue exit is required 5 If the rear mounting flue configuration is to be used the blanking plate will be fitted to the top of the stove and the flue connector to the rear panel To do this the rear baffle will need to be removed from inside the stove to gain access to the rear flue fastenings Bane Assembly 6 Lift out the log retainer bar and the two side firebrick panels Removable Baffle shown in Fig 3 Lift out the Log Retain
11. Place two or three small logs on top 3 Light the newspaper or firelighters using a long taper and close the door 4 When the fire is burning strongly add further logs up to 10mm diameter 5 When the stove is really hot close the front air control as required Ensure there are lasting flames until the wood becomes charcoal FIRE LIGHTING WITH SOLID FUEL 1 Open the air controls N Lay firelighters or rolled up newspapers in the stove with a reasonable quantity of dry kindling wood Place a small quantity of solid fuel on top Light the newspaper or firelighters using a long taper and close the door When the fire is burning strongly add further fuel When the stove is hot reduce the opening of the air controls The burn rate can be reduced by partially closing the air controls or damper REFUELLING 1 Always open the doors slowly to avoid a sudden rush of intake air and smoke escaping into the room and add fuel 2 Open the air controls and leave open for a few minutes to allow the gasses in the wood to burn before closing the air controls The rate of refuelling and heat available are dependant upon individual requirements based upon the user s experience When re loading it is normally necessary to burn the stove fast initially to drive off any gasses and moisture before closing the air vents control the burn rate Ensure the doors are kept closed to contain fumes except when lighting
