OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FIREBOX LININGS & THROAT PLATE The Arley 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 MULTI - PURPOSE OPERATING TOOL •Re-place the gaskets and line them up in relation to the door frame. (Fig.6) Your Aarrow fire comes with a multi-purpose tool, which is used for riddling, setting the multifuel grate position. Use the operating tool for setting the grate in the coal burning position or the wood burning position. This lever is also used for de-ashing and riddling see page 13 (multifuel stoves only) and for emptying the ash pan. (Fig. 4) Fig.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS DOOR ADJUSTMENT FITTING THE FEET 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 Arley wood and multifuel stoves must be fitted with the feet supplied.
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 ASH REMOVAL Wood burner only OVER-FIRING Ash will drop through the holes and to the slides of the specially designed wood tray. This should be removed from the stove periodically. It is advisable to leave a layer of ash on the wood tray to prolong its life and maintain optimum conditions for burning wood. Do not over fire your appliance. Using flammable liquids or too much wood or firing the fire at maximum for prolonged periods may result in over-firing.
SERVICING ANNUAL MAINTENANCE It is important that your fire is regularly serviced in accordance with these instructions. This should be carried out at least annually by a qualified person and should consist of the following. 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.
ACCESSORIES ACCESSORIES WOOD BURNING TRAYS To turn your multifuel stove into a dedicated woodburner.

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 Arley 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 or multifuel grate. •Set the small liners into the back of the fire. Fig. 12 Liners inserted in Arley 11 multifuel.
INSTALLATION MULTIFUEL GRATE GRATE GRATE BAR REPLACEMENT The grates in the Arley 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 Arley 7 & 11 range is a flat top stove 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.
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 Arley wood and multifuel stoves offer the option of a cantilever boiler or 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.
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.
