UNPACKING THE APPLIANCE
The stove comes bolted and strapped to a pallet, for simple and secure transportation. To unpack,
first remove the strapping and packaging. Then remove the two bolts holding the stove to the pallet,
using a 10mm spanner. Locate the four Height Adjusting Bolts supplied with the appliance, and
insert them from below into the same four holes in the feet of the stove, using a 13mm spanner.
These can then be individually tightened / loosened as required, to level the stove on an uneven /
sloping hearth. Whilst heat-treated, the pallet has been produced from timber that is appropriate
for use as kindling, so can be broken up and chopped, for this purpose. Finally, dispose of the
remaining packaging responsibly.
TOP OR REAR FLUE CONNECTION
The appliance can be installed with either a top or rear connected 5” flue. The stove comes supplied
with a top connection, so if a rear connected flue is desired, it must be converted before fitting in
place. To convert the stove to rear connection…
Top flue connection (As factory supplied)
Rear flue connection (After conversion)
1. Remove the flue plate, from the rear of the stove, by unscrewing the three outer fixing
screws (using a 13mm spanner).
2. Open the stove door, and remove the two top vermiculite baffle bricks.
3. Remove the two nuts, securing the stove top in place, (using a 13mm spanner), and lift it
clear from the stove.
4. Release the cast iron flue collar, by unscrewing the three fixing Philips head bolts.
5. Reposition the cast iron flue collar onto the rear of the stove, (where the flue plate was
previously located), reusing the three Philips head bolts.
6. Reposition the flue plate around the top flue port, and fix in place to seal.
7. Replace the stove top into position, and secure using the two retained fixing nuts.
8. Replace the two top vermiculite baffle bricks.

inner screws heads on the flue plate, so as to make the blanking disk sit flush.
