The fibre door gasket around the inside edge of the door

provides an air tight seal. Check this regularly and remove

any ash or wood particles gently with a soft brush. Replace

the gasket once a year.

To clean, use a soft brush. The stove body can be repainted

or touched up using Dovre high temperature resistant stove

paint.

You may notice a build up of deposits on your glass

particularly if the stove has been used for long periods at low

temperature. A hot brisk fire will normally cure this problem

but if the problem persists, check the quality of your wood

and/or chimney. It is always recommended to run your stove

hard, after an overnight burn. From time to time, the glass can

be cleaned using Dovre CERACLEAN. Never use water or

abrasive pads to clean the glass-especially whilst the glass is hot.

At the end of the heating season, thoroughly clean the inside

of the stove and adjoining flue pipe.

Arrange for your chimney sweep to inspect and clean the

chimney.

If smoking occurs when the stove door is opened, it is a sign

that the flue draught is inadequate. Mostly this condition is

caused by burning unseasoned wood and it usually indicates

that the combustion temperature is too low. To overcome a

weak draught, ensure your wood is dry and build a hot fire,

leaving the air control lever in the fully open position. If the

problem persists, arrange for your chimney to be expertly

checked for design or construction faults. In some instances,

down draught conditions will exist and it may be necessary

to fit an anti down draught device to the top of the

chimney.

This is usually caused by either,

•WOOD WHICH IS TOO SMALL IN DIAMETER

•THE USE OF SOFTWOODS

•EXCESSIVE CHIMNEY DRAUGHTS

•DOOR GASKET SEAL WORN OUT

Use only hardwood logs approximately 10cms in diameter

and close the air control to the fully closed position.

As chimney draughts vary with different installations it will

be necessary to experiment with the position of the air

control when set for overnight burning. The normal time on

a full load of hardwood is approximately 8 hours.

NOTE: If the appliance is operated for overnight burning,

the glass will not stay clean.

see fig 5.

The door of the Dovre 700CBW is fully adjustable to ensure

air tightness and correct alignment. To make adjustments,

use the following procedure.

Loosen the two hex headed screws located on the right

outside front of the firebox. To achieve a tighter door seal,

the adjustable hinge plate may be moved forward or

backward from the top and/or bottom. Horizontal

adjustment can be made firstly by loosening the two hex

headed screws on the hinge plate followed by adjusting the

set screws. Tightening the top screw will raise the door if it

sags and does not latch smoothly. Loosening the top screw

will lower the opposite edge if the door is too high. Adjusting

both set screws will re-position the door to the left or right

for correct alignment.

After adjustments have been made, tighten the two hex

headed screws on the hinge plate, taking care not to over

tighten.

The door latch may be adjusted in a similar manner.

HEARTH REQUIREMENT

The positioning of the appliance and the size and type of

hearth are governed by Building Regulations for Class 1

appliances. The Building Regulations state that the hearth

must extend at least 30cms to the front of the appliance and

15cms to the sides. If in doubt, expert advice should be

sought from your local building inspector.

CONNECTION TO THE CHIMNEY

If an existing masonry chimney is installed, the appliance

should be connected to the chimney using 150mm diameter

316 grade 1mm stainless steel or good quality vitreous enamel

flue pipe. It is important to ensure that the connection to the

chimney is carried out in such a way that any soot or ash is

allowed to fall unhindered back into the appliance or flue T-

section. see fig 6.
