UNPACK THE STOVE

Carefully cut the straps and lift the box up over the top of the stove. Remove the packing
from round the outside of the stove, it is important to protect the paint finish from any
damage, water, dust or fire cement. Using a 17mm spanner, remove the two bolts
attaching the stove to the pallet, and then replace the bolts into the stove legs, these are
used as levelling bolts if required. Open the stove door and remove the packaging from
inside the stove, there is some behind the baffle. Remove the bag inside the stove, this
contains the operating tool, instructions, stove handle cover and a pair of stove gloves.
When installing the Pickering stove please ensure that both the lower and upper
baffles are pushed to the back of the stove. There should be no gap at the back when the
baffles are in their correct position.
CLEARANCES
The Pickering Smoke Control needs to be sited next to and on a non-combustible surface.
A minimum clearance of 150mm at the sides and at least 300mm above and 50mm from
the back of the stove body will allow air circulation and not impede the performance of
the stove. If it is necessary to site the stove near a combustible surface a minimum of
250mm at the back and 450 mm at the sides must be maintained. It is a requirement that
this appliance is installed on a solid, level, non-combustible hearth conforming to current
