EVERY YEAR Have the main flue swept using a wire centred sweeps brush fitted with a guide wheel We strongly recommend that you engage a qualified chimney sweep see the information on the front cover Any purpose provided ventilation should be checked periodically at least once per year to ensure that it is free from obstruction Summer shut down or periods of prolonged non use If the appliance is not to be used for an extended period of time e g during the warmer summer months then it is wise to follow this procedure to avoid unnecessary corrosion being caused by a build up of moisture inside the stove Thoroughly clean the inside of the stove to remove any unbumed fuel and ash residues in the firebox and ashpit Leave the air controls open to allow a flow of fresh air through the stove as ventilation PAGE 6 TO TAKE 150MM FLUE PIPE AIR WASH CONTROL FIG 4 RETAINER PRIMARY AIR CONTROL AND LOWER GRATE BARS STOVE SIDE VIEW WITH FIREBRICKS THROAT PLATE IN POSITION FIG 6 CENTRE TAB INSERT TOOL THROAT WASH PLATE LOCATION BRACKET THROAT PLATE BRICK PC HOLDING RETAINER BRACKET BRACKET SIDE BRICKS REAR SUPPORT BRACKET ASH LIP b naz pj Oe LOWER GRATE BAR IN FIRST OUT LAST His jp Ie seem UPPER GRATE BAR IN SECOND OUT SECOND FUEL RETAINER BAR IN IT FIRST REF HIGHS DBO11 05 08 13 HIGHLANDER 8 1 FITTING THE GRATE BARS The shaker bar is already fitted it shoul
