OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FIREBOX LININGS & THROAT PLATE The Sherborne range of Wood and Multifuel stoves firebox have reflective liners to the sides and rear and a specially shaped throat plate which sits on the liners. If these are not in place please refer to page 17 to install these. MULTIFUEL GRATE The Aarrow Multifuel grate comprises of a series of reciprocating cast iron bars seated on a pivoted "comb".
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS •Unscrew the two nuts, on the inside of the door securing the retaining clips. •Carefully remove any pieces of broken glass, and sealing gasket wearing suitable gloves. •Re-place the gaskets and line them up in relation to the door frame. (Fig.6) Fig. 4b Lifting cover from body of stove Fig. 4c Unscrewing Fig. 6 Lining up the gasket MULTI - PURPOSE OPERATING TOOL •Re-seat the new glass, ensuring the sealing gasket is flat and in contact with the glass. (Fig.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS DOOR ADJUSTMENT Once the appliance has been under fire for a period of time the fire door may appear to have moved out of alignment with relation to the door aperture. This is quite normal and due to the settling of the casing. The fire door can be re-aligned by the user as follows: •When the appliance is cold, open the fire door so that it is at a right angle to the front face of the fire. •Lift the fire door up off the hinges.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FUEL TYPES Wood- Any type of wood is suitable provided it is well seasoned and has a moisture content below 20%. This usually implies that the timber has been suitably stored to allow moisture to evaporate for at least nine months in the case of soft woods, and at least eighteen months in the case of hard wood. We recommend that for general burning, wood should be split into logs of no more than 130mm (5") diameter. Larger logs can be used for overnight burning.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS ENSURE THAT YOU HAVE READ & UNDERSTOOD THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE LIGHTING THE FIRE. ALWAYS WEAR SUITABLE PROTECTIVE FIRE GLOVES WHEN REFUELLING YOUR STOVE. SOLID FUEL BURNING •Set the grate to ‘coal’ position. •Ensure that the ash pan is in position and the fire doors are closed. •Set the air wash to one quarter open position. •Set the primary inlet to the fully open position •Light in the normal manner with paper and kindling, or use a fire lighter.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS • Check for flue or chimney blockage, and clean if required. Seek expert advice from your HETAS registered installer. Do not attempt to re-light the fire until the cause of the fume emission has been identified and corrected. ASH REMOVAL - Wood burner only Ash will drop through the holes and to the slides of the specially designed wood tray. This should be removed from the stove periodically.
SERVICING Remove the firebricks lining and throat plate, inspect all gasketing on doors, glass etc., and re-order any items that may need replacing, from your Aarrow dealer. With a wire brush clean inside the appliance paying particular attention to the small inlet holes of the air wash on the inside, above the fire door and to the door. Sweep the chimney and confirm that it is sound. Examine all joints in the flue pipe etc., and re-seal if necessary.
ACCESSORIES ACCESSORIES WOOD BURNING TRAYS To turn your multifuel stove into a dedicated woodburner. As shown in Fig. 10a below Fig. 10a MULTIFUEL UPGRADE KIT Available for the wood burning range to enable you to burn solid fuel in your Sherborne woodburning stove. (See Fig. 10b) Fig.
INSTALLATION GENERAL PRECAUTIONS Note - All installations must conform to the appropriate building regulations. The Building Regulations for England and Wales 2000 ref Approved Document J 2002 edition (issued by the DTLR). The Building Standards (Scotland) (Consolidation) Regulations. Detailed recommendations for installation of appliances, chimneys and flues are outlined in the current issue of the following British Standards:BS6461, BS8303 and BS4543.
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 Fig. 12 Liners inserted in Sherborne Medium Multifuel.
INSTALLATION MULTIFUEL GRATE GRATE GRATE BAR REPLACEMENT 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. After extended use it may be necessary to replace some of the grate bars.
INSTALLATION INTERCHANGEABLE CANOPIES The canopy versions for the Sherborne range are slab top stoves to which a low or high canopy can be fitted after installation and are interchangeable. These are fitted as follows: •To fit the interchangeable canopy (Fig 10c): •Remove the front clamps. •Tilt the canopy as shown in stage 1. •Engage the rear clips and pull fully forward. •Fit the front clamps and tighten. •Fit the required blanking plates shown in stage 2. Fig.
INSTALLATION FITTING THE FLUE OUTLET AND HOT PLATE The flue outlet spigot is found inside the appliance. The hot plate (blanking plate) is supplied fitted to the top opening and is removed by turning clockwise (as is the flue outlet). Smear a very thin layer of fire cement on the faces of the flue outlet and the blanking plate. Fit the outlet to the appliance in the desired position.
INSTALLATION Due to the gradual introduction of European Chimney Standards chimneys will be specified according to their performance designation as defined in BS EN 1443 that covers the General Requirements for chimneys. The minimum performance designation required for use with solid fuel burning stoves is T450 N2 S D3. The flue and chimney installation must be carefully checked by a competent person before fitting the stove to ensure it is suitable and will work safely.

INSTALLATION TYPICAL METAL INSULATED CHIMNEY SYSTEM TO BE INSTALLED TO THE CHIMNEY MANUFACTURERS INSTRUCTIONS IN COMPLIANCE WITH BUILDING REGULATIONS AND BS7566 PTS 1-4 PLAN VIEW OF REGISTER PLATE AND CLEARANCES FOR NON INSULATED FLUES A is minimum clearance for non-insulated flue = 1.
INSTALLATION ADD IN BOILERS Sherborne Wood and Multifuel stoves offer the option of a slab boiler, which occupies the position of the rear firebox liner panels. Fitting: •Remove the fuel retainers, rear firebox liner panels and throat plate. •Knock out the blanking discs in the back plate corresponding to the terminals on the boiler. •Introduce the boiler to the appliance through the main fire door and locate the terminal pipes through the back plate holes and seal around boiler terminals with fire cement.
INSTALLATION Primary flow and return pipes should be 28mm diameter. The cylinder should be installed at a higher level than the appliance, and as close to it as possible (the higher the cylinder the faster the circulation). The flow and return pipes should not be longer than 20ft each. Pipe runs should rise continually from the boiler to the cylinder. A radiator of approximately 25 sq.ft.
