Any Manufacturer's Instructions must not be taken as overriding statutory requirements. During installation ensure that adequate precautions are taken to avoid unnecessary risk to yourself or any householder. In particular the danger from the caustic nature of the fire cement should be avoided by using these accepted methods: • Wear gloves when handling fire cement. • Wear goggles when chiselling or looking up chimneys. Make sure that Building Regulations are adhered to during installation along with any local by-laws. In the case of heating systems make sure that the pipe work is correctly bonded to ensure electrical earthing. HANDLING By the time you read this you will appreciate the weight of the appliance. The Safety and handling guidelines as set out on page 5 of this manual should be followed. To make movement easier internal fittings, fuel retainers, grates, firebox liners, flue outlets, hot plate, throat plate, etc., can be removed. Care should be taken to make sure that the hinges are not damaged during installation. HEARTH The fire should be installed to stand on a constructional hearth of non-combustible materials not less than 125mm (5'') thick conforming to Building Regulations. Dimensions of the hearth should project at least 300mm (12'') forward of the front of the appliance and 150mm (6'') at the sides. The surface of the hearth should be free of combustible materials. In most buildings with solid concrete floors the requirement will be met by the floor itself, but mark the perimeter of the hearth to ensure floor coverings are kept well away or use different levels to mark the hearth perimeter. COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS A gap of at least 450mm (18'') should be allowed between the appliance and any combustible materials including furnishings. Adjacent walls should be of suitable non-combustible construction, preferably brickwork. In large fireplaces take care that any supporting beam is protected by a 13mm (0.5'') sheet of Masterboard/Supalux spaced 13mm (0.5'') off the surface with strips of non-combustible material -not wood. Make sure that there is a gap between an uninsulated flue system and any combustible material. This gap must be at least 3 x the outside diameter of the flue pipe, or 1.5 x the flue diameter to non combustible surfaces. see illustration p22. AIR FOR COMBUSTION There must always be a permanent means of providing air for combustion into the room in which the fire is installed. A permanent vent with a total free area of at least 550mm2 for every kW rated output above 5kw should be connected directly to the outside air or to an adjacent room which itself has a permanent vent of the same size direct to the outside air. The fitting of an extractor fan to either of these rooms is not recommended. Sherborne Wood & Multifuel Stoves INSTALLATION FIREBOX LINER PANELS The Sherborne Wood and Multifuel stoves use reflective liners to the sides and back. The throat plate sits on top of the side and rear panels. These should come fitted to your fire, if however they are not proceed as follows to fit them. •Remove the front fuel bars. •Set the small liners into the back of the fire. •Insert side liner panels •Fit the throat plate with the single bend and two cut outs to the front facing up. The projecting lugs sit on top of the side liners. The long centre tab on the back edge rests on the rear liners. The shorter turn-down tabs against the vertical face. •Replace the front fuel retainer bars. Note: Neither the rear firebox liners nor the side firebox liners are "handed", both faces are suitable for direct contact with the fire. Note: Cracking of lining panels does not effect efficiency.

Keep chimney and flue ways clear. Sherborne Wood & Multifuel Stoves INSTALLATION MULTIFUEL GRATE GRATE The grates in the Sherborne Multifuel units comprise a series of reciprocating cast iron bars seated on a pivoted "comb". All bars in the grate are identical, but every other bar is turned through 180 degrees, with the ends of the bars marked "H" sitting on the high sections of the comb, and the ends marked "L" sitting on the low sections. ASSEMBLING THE GRATE To assemble the grate, fit bars to low sections of the comb first, inserting end marked "H" into rear channel with groove on underside of bar located on upstand tab, and then lowering end marked "L" onto the low section of the comb. The upper bar is fitted in a similar manner, but with the end marked "L" inserted in the rear channel, and the end marked "H" seated on the high section of the comb. GRATE BAR REPLACEMENT After extended use it may be necessary to replace some of the gra...
