OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. GENERAL
1.1 This stove is designed for domestic heating and should only be used for this purpose, and in accordance with the manufacturers operating instructions.
It should be installed by a competent installer, in
accordance with all local regulations, including those referring to national and European standards.
1.2 The stove should only be used to burn approved fuels and should not be used with liquid fuels or used as an incinerator.
1.3 As with all heating stoves the surfaces will become very hot when in use, therefore due care should be taken when near the stove. If it is to be used in the presence of young children, elderly or infirm persons a suitable fireguard should be used. Care should also be taken with the placement of combustible items near the stove as conducted and radiated heat could cause a fire hazard.
1.4 Stovax offer a wide range of firescreens and sparkguards, along with a hearthgate system designed to offer full protection for a range of stoves and fireplaces. Your Stovax dealer can advise you on these products.
1.5 Due to the high temperature of the convected air above the stove we recommend that no valuable photographs, paintings, TV screens, porcelain or other items are placed in this area. Such artefacts may be damaged by long term exposure to fluctuating temperatures.
1.10 No other appliance should be connected to or share, the
same flue or chimney system.
1.11 Do not store wood in the area beneath either the 5 Midline or 6 Highline stove.

2. USING THE STOVE FOR THE FIRST TIME
2.1 When new, it is best to burn the fire at a low output for the first few days of use. This will allow the construction to settle and all fixing glues and paint to fully cure.
Avoid touching the paint during the first period of use.
2.2 During this time the stove may give off some unpleasant odours, and we recommend that you keep the room well ventilated during this period to avoid a build-up of fumes.
3. BURNING WOOD
(with or without multifuel kit fitted)
3.1 Open the Airwash control fully and open the Primary air control to approximately 25% open.
3.2 Place some pieces of firelighter or dry crumpled paper on the grate and cover with some small pieces of dry kindling wood. Light the paper or firelighters.
3.3 To avoid the build-up of condensation on the door glass it is advisable to leave the door slightly open as the fire establishes, and the glass warms.
3.4 As the fire becomes established add larger pieces of wood and fully close the door. Do not leave the stove with the
door open as this could over-fire the stove and cause permanent damage.
PR7210 PR7209
Rotate 1/4 turn clockwise to open. Rotate 1/4 turn anti-clockwise to close.
Do not force the handle to turn more than 1/4 turn as damage may occur.
1.15 Never open the door with your bare hands.
1.16 Closing the door is the reverse of the previous.
Warning
MULTI-FUEL GRATE
1.17 To de-ash the firebed, using the riddling grate system, operate by using the removable handle to pull the operating knob in and out. This causes the ash to fall down into the ashpan

3.5
As the fire becomes established close the Primary air control and control the burn rate using the Airwash control only.
3.6 To burn wood efficiently it is best to allow a bed of ash to build-up on the grate, or the base of the stove, and control the combustion using the Airwash control only.
3.7 Before re-fuelling the stove it is advisable to first rake the embers evenly over the firebed then open the Airwash control fully for a few minutes, to establish a glowing bed before adding new logs.
3.8 Allow the new logs to burn at high output for a few minutes before adjusting the burn rate, with the Airwash control, to the desired setting. It is best to refuel little and often to maintain clean and efficient burning.
3.9 The ideal control settings to suit the particular installation and personal preferences will be established by experience in using the stove.
3.10 Do not load fuel higher than the log guard at the front of the stove and the secondary combustion air inlet holes at the back of the fire box.
3.11 It is not recommended to load large amounts of logs and burn with the Airwash control on low settings for long periods of time. This will reduce the effectiveness of the glass cleaning effect of the airwash. Also this will cause a large build-up of tars and creosotes in the stove and flue system.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
3.12 We would recommend that the stove be burnt at high output for at least 30 minutes each day when it is in use. This will help reduce the build-up of tars and creosotes within the stove and flue system.
4. BURNING SOLID FUEL (with multifuel kit fitted)
Do not burn painted, impregnated wood or
manufactured board products.
4.1 Open the Primary air control fully.
4.2 Place some pieces of firelighter or dry crumpled paper on the grate and cover with some small pieces of dry kindling wood. Light the paper or firelighters.
4.3 To avoid the build-up of condensation on the door glass it is advisable to leave the door slightly open as the fire establishes, and the glass warms.
4.4 As the fire becomes established add pieces of solid fuel and fully close the door. Do not leave the stove with the
door open as this could over-fire the stove and cause permanent damage.
Airwash control to approximately 50% and
5. OVER-FIRING
5.1 Do not use the appliance at maximum output for prolonged periods of time, or over fill the firebox with fuel, as this could result in over-firing. If the connecting fluepipe, appliance flue collar or top plate glow red with heat the appliance is being over fired and the air controls should be closed to reduce the output.
5.2 If a chimney fire occurs shut all air controls immediately to close the appliance down, and evacuate all persons from the building before calling the fire brigade. Do not re-enter the building until it is confirmed safe to do so.
5.3 Following a chimney fire do not use the appliance until it is inspected by a HETAS (GB only)/ INFO (Eire) registered installer, to confirm that the appliance is safe to use, or make any repairs required before re-use. Only genuine Stovax replacement parts are to be used to keep your appliance in safe and efficient working order.
5.4
After any chimney fire it is recommended that the chimney system be inspected and swept by a NACS registered (UK only) chimney sweep, to confirm that the system is structurally sound and free from any obstructions before re-use.
4.5 As the fire becomes established reduce the Airwash control to approximately 25% and control the burn rate using the Primary air control only.
4.6 To burn solid fuel efficiently it is best to control the combustion using the Primary air control only.
4.7 Before re-fuelling the stove it is advisable to first de-ash the firebed, using the riddling grate system. To do this open the stove door, then using the ashpan tool move the grate vigorously left to right. This causes the ash to fall down into the ashpan. Do not use bare hands to operate the riddling system.
4.8 Then open the to establish a glowing bed before adding new fuel. Allow the new fuel to burn at high output for a few minutes before adjusting the burn rate with the Primary air control to the desired setting. It is best to refuel little and often to maintain clean and efficient burning.
4.9 The ideal control settings to suit the particular installation and personal preferences will be established by experience in using the stove.
4.10 Do not load fuel higher than the log guard at the front of the stove and the secondary combustion air inlet holes at the back of the fire box.
4.11 We would recommend that the stove be burnt at high output for at least 30 minutes each day when it is in use. This will help reduce the build-up of tars and creosotes within the stove and flue system.
Do not burn bituminous coal, ‘petro-coke’ or other
petroleum based fuels, as this will invalidate any product guarantee.
Primary air control fully for a few minutes,
6. SEASONAL USE
6.1 If the stove is not to be used during the warmer periods of the year it is recommended to clean and service the stove, as detailed in the Maintenance and Servicing section.
6.2 The air controls should be set in the 50% open position to keep the appliance ventilated, and stop the build-up of any moisture inside.
6.3 Before re-lighting the stove remove the baffles, clear any debris that may have accumulated, and check the flue is clear of any blockages.
7. ASH REMOVAL
7.1 The burning of any fuel will produce ash, which will have to be removed after a period of use. This time will depend on the fuel used. Before removing the ash from the stove it is advisable to let the fire burn down to a low level, or even go out completely. If a multifuel kit is fitted the ashpan can be removed from the stove using the tool provided, after opening the door.
7.2 As heat can remain in the ash for a long period after use, care must be taken when removing and carrying the full ashpan. We suggest that the ashpan be carried using gloved hands, or the ash is placed directly into a Stovax Ash Caddy. (Stovax Part No. 4227).
7.3 When burning wood the amount of ash will be smaller and may only need removal once every week. To do this, allow the fire to burn out and cool. Then after removing the log
