top of it. When in the closed position ash is able to build up on the
grate as is necessary for effective wood burning.
Movement of the grate from one position to the other is effected
using the tool supplied as shown in Fig. 2. The grate is put into the
open position by moving the tool up until the handle is in the 1
o'clock position. The grate is put into the closed position by moving
the tool down until the handle is in the 5 o'clock position. To riddle
the appliance, the tool should be moved between the open and
horizontal positions several times. When burning wood the ash
should be allowed to build up and riddling should only be carried out
once or twice a week.
RIDDLING
When burning wood, ash should be allowed to build up and only
riddled when the ash begins to cover the slots in the rear fireplate.
The fire should be riddled with the doors shut (see Fig. 2). Place the
tool onto the riddling lever and rotate between the 1 o'clock and 3
o'clock positions several times. Too much riddling can result in
emptying unburnt fuel into the ashpan and should therefore be
avoided. After riddling, the grate should be put back into the open
or closed position as required (the tool should be in the 1 o'clock
position for open grate or in the 5 o'clock position for closed grate).
CONTROLLING THE FIRE
The fire is controlled by the single air control knob shown in Fig. 3.
Pull the knob out to make the fire burn faster, push it in to make the
fire burn slower.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
®
TM
This unique QuattroFlow air control* provides carefully balanced
primary, secondary, tertiary and bypass air to enable optimum
burning conditions without the need to fiddle with multiple controls.
For correct firing we recommend the use of a stove pipe
thermometer which may be purchased from your supplier or from
ourselves.
ASH CLEARANCE
The ashpan should be emptied regularly before it becomes too full.
Never allow the ash to accumulate in the ashpan so that it comes in
contact with the underside of the grate as this will seriously damage
the grate bars. The ashpan is handled using the tool and gloves
provided. Care should be taken to ensure that ash is cool before
emptying it into plastic liners or bins.
To make ash removal easier there is a special Charnwood ash carrier
available. This may be purchased from your supplier or, in case of
difficulty, from ourselves.
TOOL HOLDER
The tool holder is fitted by the installer underneath the front facing
left leg and is supplied inside a bag. To fit the tool holder, slacken the
bolt (located under front facing left leg) with a 13mm spanner, slide
the tool holder in to place and tighten the bolt back up again. Once
fitted, the tool holder will hold the riddling/ashpan tool when it is
not in use.
