FLUES
Flues should be vertical wherever possible and where a bend is necessary, it should not make an angle of more than 45owith the vertical. Horizontal flue runs should be avoided except in the case of a back outlet appliance, when the length of the hori­zontal section should not exceed 150mm.
In order to minimise flue resistance and to make sweeping easier it is recommended to use 2 x 45 bends rather than a 90obend.
Appliance
Soot Door
FLUE PIPES
A flue pipe should only be used to connect an appli­ance to a chimney and should not pass through any roof space.
Flue pipes may be of any of the following materials:
(a) Cast iron as described in BS 41: 1973
(1981), or
(b) Stainless steel with a wall thickness of
at least 1mm and as described in BS EN 10095:1999 Specification for stainless and heat resisting steel plate, sheet and strip, for Grade 316 S11, 316 S13, 316 S16, 316 S31, 316 S33, or the equivalent Euronorm
o
88-71 designation, or
(c) Vitreous enamelled steel complying with BS
6999: 1989.
The flue termination point must be located to min­imise any wind effects. Wind effects of suction, pressure zones and turbulence can be created by the roof and adjacent objects. Wind effects can also be created by natural land contours.
To minimise the wind effects, the flue termination point should be located a minimum of 1000mm from the roof measured vertically and 2300mm measured horizontally. Where this termination point does not
Flue pipes with spigot and socket joints should be fit­ted with the socket uppermost.
Clearance to combustibles must be adhered to when fitting the flue pipe.
The appliance is suitable for continuous operation on solid mineral fuel and intermittent operation on wood logs.

Fig. 5
VENTILATION & COMBUSTION AIR REQUIRE­MENTS
It is imperative that there is sufficient air supply to the stove in order to support correct combustion.
The air supply to this appliance must comply with B.S. 8303: Part 1.
REAR FLUE EXIT
For rear flue outlet configuration push in flue con­nector pipe (not supplied) into flue outlet socket at the rear of the stove and cement into place using approved fire cement ensuring that no cement blocks the flue passageway.
It is recommended that a minimum clearance of 100mm be maintained from the sides and rear of the appliance to a tiled fireplace or masonry wall, espe­cially on the right of the appliance as access is required for the controls.
The minimum effective air requirement for this appli­ance is 21cm2(3.25in2). When calculating combus­tion air requirement for this appliance use the fol­lowing equation: a total free area of at least 550mm per kW of rated output above 5kW shall be provid­ed.
If there is another air using appliance fitted in the same or adjacent room, it will be necessary to cal­culate additional air supply.
All materials used in the manufacture of air vents should be such that the vent is dimensionally stable and corrosion resistant.
The effective free area of any vent should be ascer­tained before installation. The effect of any screen should be allowed for when determining the effective free area of any vent.
Air vents direct to the outside of the building should be located so that any air current produced will not pass through normally occupied areas of the room.
An air vent outside the building should not be locat­ed less than the dimensions specified within the Building Regulations from any part of any flue termi­nal. These air vents must also be fire proofed as per Building Regulations.
Air vents in internal walls should not communicate with bedsits, toilets, bathrooms or rooms containing a shower.
2
Air vents traversing cavity walls should include a continuous duct across the cavity. The duct should be installed in such a manner as not to impair the weather resistance of the cavity.
8
Page 9
Joints between air vents and outside walls should be sealed to prevent the ingress of moisture. Existing air vents should be of the correct size and unob­structed for the appliance in use.
It is recommended that this appliance is sited next to and on a non-combustible surface. A minimum all round clearance of 100 mm will allow air circulation and not impede the performance of the stove.
Where such a installation exists, a test for spillage should be made with the fan or fans and other appli­ances using air in operation at full rate, (i.e. extrac­tion fans, tumble dryers) with all external doors and windows closed.
If spillage occurs following the above operation, an additional air vent of sufficient size to prevent this occurrence should be installed.
PERMANENT AIR VENT
The stove requires a permanent and adequate air supply in order for it to operate safely and efficiently. In accordance with current Building Regulations the installer will have fitted a permanent air supply vent into the room in which the stove is installed to pro­vide combustion air. This air vent should not under any circumstances be shut off or sealed.
Extractor Fan
There must not be an extractor fan fitted in the same room as the stove as this can cause the stove to emit smoke and fumes into the room.
The connector may pass through walls or partitions constructed of combustible materials provided the connector is either listed for wall pass-through or is routed through a device listed for a wall pass­through and is installed in accordance with the con­ditions of the listing. Any unexposed metal that is used as part of a wall pass-through system is exposed to flue gases shall be constructed of stain­less steel or other equivalent material that will resist corrosion, softening, or cracking from flue gas at temperatures up to 982oC.
FLOOR PROTECTION
It is recommended that this appliance is installed on a solid, level, non- combustible hearth conforming to current Building Regulations.
The hearth should extend at least 127mm from the sides and rear of the stove and 460mm from the front. See Fig. 6.
LOCATION
There are several conditions to be considered in selecting a location for your Tara Stove.
a. Position in the area to be heated, central

LIGHTING
Before lighting the stove check with the installer that the installation work and commissioning checks described in the installation instructions have been carried out correctly and that the chimney has been swept clean, is sound and free from any obstructions. As part of the stoves handover the installer should have demonstrated how to operate correctly.
1. Before lighting the stove, ensure that any build up of ashes in the fire box has been removed and that the ashpan has been emptied.
2. Open the firebox and cover the grate with crumpled pieces of paper.
3. Lay pieces of kindling on top of the paper towards the back of the fire box.
4. Open the primary air inlet by turning the spin valve at the front of the stove anticlockwise.
5. Open the secondary air control by sliding the control knob located over the top of the fire door to the left.
6. Ignite the paper and close the firedoor.
7. When the kindling is well alight, open the fire door and add more kin­dling of a larger size to sustain the fire. Close the firedoor.
8. Never use inflammable liquid i.e. gasoline, petrol paraffin etc. to
start or freshen up afire in this heater.
9. When a hot bed of fuel is established, add the normal fuel and adjust the spin valve to the required setting.
10. To shut the fire down, do not add fuel, make sure that the firedoor is properly closed and that the primary and secondary air controls are all in the closed position. Cutting off the air supply will reduce the heat output.
11. Following a prolonged shutdown of the appliance perhaps after the summer break, ensure the flueway is free from obstruction prior to re-lighting.

Now that your Stanley Solid Fuel Stove is installed and no doubt you are looking forward to many comforts it will provide, we would like to give you some tips on how to get the best results from your stove.
1. We would like if you could take some time to read the operating instructions/hints, which we are confident, will be of great benefit to you.
2. Do not burn fuel with a high moisture content, such as a damp peat or unseasoned timber. This will only result in a build up of tar in the stove and in the chimney.
FUEL CALORIFIC VALUES - SOLID FUELS
Anthracite 25-50mm C.V.: 8.2kW/Kg 14,000 BTUs/lb
House Coal 25-75mm C.V.: 7.2kW/Kg 12,000 BTUs/lb
Timber - Firebox size C.V.: 5.0kW/Kg 8,600 BTUs/lb
Peat Briquettes C.V.: 4.8kW/Kg 8,300 BTUs/lb
3. Clean the flue-ways of the stove every week and ensure that there are no blockages. Check flueways before lighting especially after a shut down period. Please refer to manual for instructions.
4. Before loading fresh fuel into the firebox, riddle fully to remove all ashes this will allow better and cleaner burning. See Re-Fuelling Section.
5. Never allow a build up of ashes in the ash pan, as this will cause the grate to burn out prema­turely. Empty the ashpan when re-fuelling.
6. Allow adequate air ventilation to ensure plenty of air for combustion.
7. Do not use as an incinerator burning rubbish/household waste.
8. Do not leave ash-door open for long periods as this will over heat the unit causing unnecessary damage. Close the ash door between removing and replacing the ashpan.
9. Clean the chimney at least twice a year.
10. Burning soft fuels such as timber and peat will stain the glass. Regular cleaning will prevent per­manent staining. Clean with soapy water when cool.
11. Keep all combustible materials a safe distance away from unit, please consult manual for clear­ance to combustible table.
12. For safety reasons never leave children or the elderly unaccompanied while stove is in use. Use a fire guard.
13. Avoid contact with unit when in use as stove reaches very high operating temperatures.
14. This appliance should be regularly maintained by a competent service engineer.
15. Do not use aerosol sprays near the stove when it is lighting.
Use only replacement parts recommended by Stanley. Making unauthorised modifications, or using unauthorised parts will invalidate your guarantee and may cause damage or injury.
AN ODOUR WILL EMIT FROM STOVE ON FIRST FIRING, WHEN FIRE REACHES MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE OVER A NUMBER OF HOURS THE ODOUR WILL SUBSIDE. IT IS BEST ADVISED TO OPEN WINDOWS DURING THIS PERIOD.
THE ODOUR IS UNPLEASANT BUT NOT TOXIC. YOU MAY WISH TO VACATE THE ROOM WHILE THE PAINT CURES.

AIR CONTROLS
The stove has two air controls, the controls operate by pushing in to close and pull out to open, the sec­ondary air control on the left hand side controls air entering the stove via the air wash over the glass and the air holes at the rear of the firebox. The pri­mary air control on the right hand side controls the air entering the stove under the grate. When lighting the stove bothe air controls can be pulled out fully to allow the maximum air supply to the stove, when the fire becomes established the air controls should be adjusted depending on the fuel used to give a con­trolled burn. For setting of air controls during when the fire is established view the above table of air control settings.
Primary air control.
This appliance has been tested using seasoned wood logs and manufactured briquetted smokeless fuel (Ancit) for closed appliances, sized between 20g and 140g. Other fuels are commercially avail­able and may give similar results. Wood logs up to 406mm long are suitable. All fuels should be stored under cover and kept as dry as possible prior to use. Do not use fuels with a Petro-coke ingredient as this may cause the grate to overheat, causing damage. Reduced outputs will result when fuels of lower calorific values are used. Never use gasoline or gasoline type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid or similar liquids to start or freshen up a fire in this heater. Keep all such liquid well away from the heater at all times. Operate the stove only with the fuelling door closed except for re-fuelling.
This stove has obtained HETAS Ltd approval for burning natural and manufactured smokeless fuels and wood logs only as detailed in recommended fuels below. HETAS Approval does not cover the use of other fuels either alone or mixed with the rec­ommended fuels listed, nor does it cover instructions for the use of other fuels.
RECOMMENDED FUELS
All fuels should be stored under cover and kept as dry as possible prior to use.

WARNING:
DE-ASHING
Properly installed, operated and maintained this stove will not emit fumes into the dwelling. Occasional fumes from de-ashing and re-fuelling may occur. However, persistent fume emission is potentially dangerous and must not be tolerated. If fume emission does persist, then the following immediate action should be taken -
(a) Open doors and windows to ventilate room.
(b) Let the fire out or eject and safely dispose of
fuel from the stove.
(c) Check for flue or chimney blockage and clean
if required.
(d) Do not attempt to relight the fire until the cause
of the fume emission has been identified and corrected. If necessary seek expert advice.
The most common cause of fume emission is flue­way or chimney blockage. For your own safety these must be kept clean at all times.
OVERNIGHT BURNING
To achieve an overnight or a low burn rate, close the Secondary air control fully, close the primary air con­trol or leave it marginally open depending on draught conditions. If the fuel load is too small or the draught too strong primary air control may need to be closed further to sustain the low burn rate.
REMEMBER: Coal gases are toxic.
WARNING: Failure to comply with the Installation
and Operating Instructions outlined above may result in carbon monoxide entering the house rather than being drawn up the chimney.
Never allow ashpan to over fill as it will cause dam­age to fire fence. When ash build-up becomes excessive in the fire chamber riddle the fire until all dead ash has fallen through to the ashpan. Open the front door and remove ashpan using the operating tool Close the front door When the ash is disposed of, replace the empty ashpan.
Fig.10
DISPOSAL OF ASHES
The ashpan must be emptied every day.
If ashes are allowed to build up to grate level the fire­box insert could be damaged by overheating. We recommend that you remove ashes after you have riddled the fire.
Ashes should be placed in a metal or other non­combustible container with a tight fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a non-combustible material, pending final disposal. If ashes are buried in soil, or otherwise dumped they should be retained in the closed container until they are thoroughly cooled.
RE-FUELLING
Riddle the fire by connecting the grate operating tool onto the rocker connection located at the bottom front of the stove, then gently pull and push the rock­er arm until all dead ash has fallen through into the ashpan. Before opening the door, open the primary air control by pulling out the control, as this will help to eliminate any smoke or fly ash resident in the combustion chamber. Add fuel to the fire, close fire door and re-set the air control to required setting.

CHIMNEY CLEANING
TO REPLACE FIRE GRATE
The chimney and any connecting flue-pipe must be swept least once a year for smokeless fuels and a minimum of twice a year for bituminous coal.
Always clean the appliance flue-ways, flue-pipe and chimney prior to lighting up after a prolonged shut­down period.
Where it is not possible to sweep the chimney through the appliance provide access in the form of a cleaning door on the flue pipe.
Where the chimney is believed to have served an open fire installation it is recommended that the chimney be swept a second time within a month of regular use after installation. It is important to clean the appliance flue-ways, flue-pipe and chimney prior to lighting up after a prolonged shut-down period.
The chimney must be swept and examined for soundness and suitability before the appliance is installed. Remedial action should be taken if required, seeking expert advice if necessary. Where the chimney is believed to have previously served an open fire installation it is possible that the higher flue gas temperature from a closed appliance may loosen deposits that were previously firmly adhered, with the consequent risk of flue blockage. It is therefore recommended that the chimney be swept a second time within a month of regular use after installation.
TO CLEAN CHIMNEY OUTLET
Remove the fire bricks on each side. Remove the baffle by first lifting it up and pulling it forward, then rotate it down around the baffle supports. Replace the baffle, the firebricks before the fire is lit. Ensure the baffle is located correctly resting on top of the secondary air supply steelwork and resting in front of the tabs protruding from the top of the secondary air steelwork.
Remove the 3 fire fence at the front of the stove, unscrew the pull rod knob from the pull rod bar locat­ed at the front of the stove in the bottom left hand corner. Pull the circular firegrate in the centre of the stove upwards to the right as far as is possible. Then twist the circular firegrate so that the front edge is lifted up and the back edge is moved down through the hole in the firebed insert. Push the cir­cular firegrate down through the firebed insert.
The circular firegrate can then be removed by push­ing it to the rear of the stove to relieve the pull rod bar and then putting it out under the firebox insert. The firebox insert can be removed by fitting the fire­box insert up at the front, then rotate the firebox insert until it can slide diagonally forward through the opening in the front panel.
Replace any damaged parts and replace firebox insert and grate ensuing that the pull rod is inserted back through the opening on the left hand side of the boiler and also through the hole on the front panel.
Replace the pull rod knob and the 3 fire fence before relighting.
CO ALARM
The fitting of CO Alarms in the same room as the appliance is a compulsory requirement under cur­rent Building Regulations. For ROI an additional CO Alarm must be fitted either inside each bedroom or within 5 metres of the bedroom door, refer to Building Regulations Part J. Further guidance on the installation of a carbon monoxide alarm is available in BS EN 50292:2002 and from the alarm manufac­turers instructions.
Provision of an alarm must not be considered a substitute for either installing the appliance correctly or ensuring regular servicing and maintenance of the appliance and chimney system.
WARNING:-
If the CO Alarm sounds unexpectedly:-
1. Open Doors and windows to ventilate the room and then leave the premises.
2. Let the fire go out.

FIRE SAFETY
GLASS CLEANING
To provide reasonable fire safety, the following should be given serious consideration.
1. Do not over fire the stove.
2. Overfiring will also damage painted or enamel finish.
3. Install a smoke detector in the room.
4. A conveniently located class A fire extin­guisher to contend with small fires resulting from burning embers.
5. A practical evacuation plan.
6. A plan to deal with a chimney fire as follows:-
(a) Notify the fire department. (b) Prepare occupants for immediate
evacuation.
(c) Close all openings into the stove.
(d) While awaiting the fire department watch
for ignition to adjacent combustibles from overheated stove pipe or from embers or sparks from the chimney.
The glass will self clean when there is sufficient heat generated by the burning fuel. If a build-up of cre­osote occurs on the glass it may be due to draft con­ditions, poor quality fuel or very low burning for a long time. It is best to clean the glass when it is thoroughly cooled.

GLASS REPLACEMENT
VITREOUS ENAMEL CLEANING
General cleaning must be carried out when the stove is thoroughly cool.
If this stove is finished in a high gloss vitreous enamel, to keep the enamel in the best condition observe the following tips:
1. Wipe over daily with a soapy damp cloth, followed by a polish with a clean dry duster.
2. For stubborn deposits a soap impregnated pad can be carefully used on the vitreous enamel.
3. Only products recommended by the Vitreous Enamel Association, these products carry the Vitramel label.
(a) Open the front door fully. (b) Remove the four corner screws and clips
and carefully remove the broken glass. (c) Clean the glass recess in the door. (d) Attach adhesive thermal tape to the
perimeter of the replacement glass. (e) Place the thermal tape side of the glass into
the door recess and replace the four corner
clips. (f) Tighten screws. (g) Replace glass only with ceramic glass 5mm
thick.
