Acorn Multifuel Stoves21 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CLEANING Important; Under some circumstances soot can quickly build up on the throat plate and adjacent areas. The throat plate should be removed and checked monthly, and any debris stripped off. Similarly, clean the upper surface of the firebox. ANNUAL MAINTENANCE It is important that your fire is regularly serviced in accordance with these instructions. This should be carried out at least annually by a qualified person and should consist of the following. Remove the firebricks lining and throat plate, inspect all gasketing on doors, glass etc., and re-order any items that may need replacing, from your Aarrow dealer. With a wire brush clean inside the appliance paying attention to the small inlet holes on the fire door. Sweep the chimney and confirm that it is sound. Examine all joints in the flue pipe etc., and re-seal if necessary. Reassemble and leave with the air inlet and air wash control about half way open. This will allow a free flow of air through the appliance thus preventing moisture and condensation from building up inside the fire and chimney. CHIMNEY 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 is essential to avoid the danger 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 register plate). Any existing chimney should be swept prior to installation of the appliance, and swept again a second time within one month of regular use after installation to establish frequency of sweeping required. This should be done by a competent person such as a NACS chimney engineer who will provide a Certificate of Chimney Sweeping. The whole flue way including the outlet must be swept at least twice per burning season. It is important that the flue ways, flue pipe and chimney be cleaned prior to lighting the fire after a prolonged shut-down period. DOOR GLASS The door glass should remain clear during normal daytime burning. However under certain conditions-such as burning at a low rate with 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 (available from fire stockists). A piece of cloth moistened with vinegar and dipped in wood ash - not coal ash- will provide a good soft scourer to remove the soot without scratching the glass. OUTER FINISH The outside finish of the appliance is a durable high temperature paint. It is best cleaned by brushing down with a clean shoe brush. Do not allow moisture to remain on the appliance whilst cold or surface rust may form. The high temperature paint should not require attention for some time, depending on use. The hotter the fire burns the sooner repainting will be necessary. Aerosol tins of paint are available for complete refurbishing. Before repainting make sure that the fire is out and is cold. •Remove the door glass. •Lightly wire brush, or rub with wire wool, the body of the appliance to remove any loose paint powder. •Mask or remove items such as brass work. •Any adjacent brickwork, mantelpiece, hearth, etc., should be carefully masked for quite a distance around the appliance. (this precaution is to prevent discolouration of the surrounding brickwork, wallpaper etc). Re-spray in a well-ventilated area - avoid breathing the vapour. Refer to safety instructions on paint cans. •When the paint is dry refit door glass and any other parts previously removed. •Leave the appliance for eight hours before-lighting. •Burn slowly for the first four hours, then build up heat gradually to cure the paint. Note: Use only genuine Aarrow touch-up spray as some paints interact. This could ruin the finish and invalidate the guarantee. Note: Cracking of lining panels does not effect efficiency.
