5. HANDLING & DISPOSAL OF FIRE CERAMICS

5.1 The fuel effect and side panels in this appliance are made from Refractory Ceramic Fibre (RCF), a material which is commonly used for this application.

5.2 Protective clothing is not required when handling these articles, but we recommend you follow normal hygiene rules of not smoking, eating or drinking in the work area and always wash your hands before eating or drinking.

5.3 To ensure that the release of RCF fibres are kept to a minimum, during installation and servicing a HEPA filtered vacuum is recommended to remove any dust accumulated in and around the appliance before and after working on it. When servicing the appliance it is recommended that the replaced items are not broken up, but are sealed within heavy duty polythene bags and labelled as RCF waste.

5.4 RCF waste is classed as stable, non-reactive hazardous waste and may be disposed of at a licensed landfill site.

5.5 Excessive exposure to these materials may cause temporary irritation to eyes, skin and respiratory tract; wash hands thoroughly after handling the material.

6. CLEANING THE FIRE

6.1 Only clean the stove when it is cold.

6.2 Remove the four black nuts retaining the door. Take care when removing the door as it is heavy.

6.3 Remove all of the ceramic logs, being especialy careful handling the front ash panels.

6.4 The logs should not require cleaning. Do not use a vacuum cleaner or brush to clean the logs, any large pieces of debris may be removed by hand.

6.5 Ensure any debris is removed from the burner ports.

6.6 Replace the ceramics and door referring to section 7.

6.7 Use a damp cloth to clean the outer casing of the appliance.

7. FUEL BED ARRANGEMENTS

Remove the cast iron door using the tool provided. Remove the front coal retainer by lifting vertically.

NOTE: THE CAST IRON DOOR IS HEAVY, TAKE EXTREME CARE WHEN HANDLING TO AVOID DAMAGING THE OUTER CASING.

The fuel bed consists of 5 logs and 2 ash panels. The logs have letters A,B,C,D and E moulded into them for identification.

7.1 Take the rear log A and place it up against the rear of the fire sitting on the two flat ledges of the burner. The two legs of the log should sit between the rear burner ports. See diagram 2. Ensure there is an equal gap between each side of the log and the side of the firebox.

7.4 Place log D across from the rear log A to log B on the lefthand side. There are cut-outs in both logs for location. See diagram 5.

7.5 There are two ash panels which lay across the front of the burner skin. Place the panel with the flat edge facing the left side of the firebox. There are location holes on this log which fit over the screw holes of the burner skin.

7.6 Place the second ash panel to the right of the first, with the pointed end of the panel fitting into the V shape. This panel should locate on the screw holes of the burner skin. Ensure that both logs are horizontal to the burner ports.

7.7 Place log E across from the rear of log A to log C on the right hand side. Again, there are cut-outs for location. The front of the log should sit on the front ash panels and should fit tight to log C. See diagram 8.

7.8 Ensure that the fibreglass seal on the back of the door is intact, locate the door on the four studs and slide back to the firebox. Secure in place using the four dome nuts and tool supplied. Do not overtigthen the nuts.

8.1 This is a safety feature incorporated in all GAZCO fires which automatically switches off the gas supply if the pilot light goes out and fails to heat the thermocouple.

9.1 The surface coating on your GAZCO fires will "burn off" during the first 24 hour of use, producing a harmless and temporary odour. This will disappear after the short period of use. If the odour persists, ask your installer for advice.

10.1 The fire must be serviced every 12 months by a qualified Gas Engineer. In all correspondence, always quote the appliance type and serial number, which may be found on the data badge.

11.1 To assist in any future correspondence, your installer should have completed the commissioning sheet at the front of this manual. This records the essential installation details of this appliance. In all correspondence always quote the Model No. and Serial No.

1.1 The flue must be sited in accordance with BS5440: Part 1 (latest editon). See diagram 1.

1.2 Any terminal which is less than 2 metres above any access (level ground, balcony or above a flat roof to which people have access), is to be fitted with the guard.

1.3 All vertical and horizontal flues must be securely fixed and fire precautions followed in accordance with local and national codes of practice.

1.4 A restrictor may be required. Refer to Technical Specifications on previous page.

1.1 TIMBER FRAMED BUILDINGS

1.5 It will be necessary to provide additional clearance when the fire passes through a wall containing any combustible materials so as to prevent a fire hazard.

1.6 The hole through which the flue will pass, must have a steel sleeve which is positioned so that an air gap of at least 25mm is maintained between the outer surface of the flue, and any part of the sleeve.

1.7 For further guidance on the installation of gas appliances in timber framed buildings, contact your local buildings control authority.

1.2 REAR FLUE 8526

Terminal dimensions:

395 x 200 x 200 mm (H x W x D)

Cut to length as required on site.

Guard Supplied.

1.3 TOP EXIT

Two types of top exit flue terminal are available, horizontal and vertical. For a horizontal terminal, decide on the terminal position and measure the height from the top of the appliance to the centre of the required hole. For minimum and maximum flue dimensions see diagram 3.

Access must be either above or at the side of the installation to allow the flue to be assembled on top of the appliance. When a horizontal terminal is used, the vertical sections are assembled first, then the 90-degree elbow and finally the horizontal section including the terminal. If a masonry installation is to be built, a suitable lintel must be used to support the opening.

Only the horizontal terminal section can be reduced in size. Refer to Balanced Flue Technical Information for details of

flue length.

Vertical from the top of the appliance then horizontally out. (See diagram 3.)

The basic kit comprises: 1 x 500mm vertical length 1 x 500mm terminal length (cut to length on site) 1 x 90 degree elbow 1 x wall plate 1 x 75mm restrictor fixing screws

The kit is the minimum required. Extra lengths may be added to the vertical and horizontal (see section 1.5), with reference to Diagram 3.

Extra lengths may be added (see section 1.5), with reference to diagram 3 and the installation instructions of the appliance.
