INTERLOCK SYSTEM
Stratford Tf and Ti Multifuel Boiler Stoves are
fitted with an "interlock" system. A situation where
the fire door is closed and the ash door is open may
lead to serious overfiring which could damage the
appliance. Correct use of the doors and interlock
system will ensure that this does not happen.
Operation is as follows:
A pivoted lug prevents closure of the fire door,
unless the ash door has been shut first. When the
fire door is shut the ash door knob can be turned
anti-clockwise by up to 95 degrees creating a
variable gap between the top of the ash door and the
body, through which primary combustion air can
enter the appliance.
Note: In order to turn the ash door knob
sufficiently for the catch to release and permit the
ash door to be opened fully THE FIRE DOOR
MUST BE OPENED FIRST.
MULTI PURPOSE OPERATING
TOOL
Your Aarrow fire comes with a multi-purpose
operating tool which is used to open the ashpit
door, riddling, setting the multifuel grate position
and for emptying the ash pan. (see fig.4)
Fig. 4
RIDDLING
Use the operating tool for setting the grate in the
coal burning position or the wood burning position.
This means that effective de-ashing takes place,
and also allows the grate to be set in the coal
burning or wood burning position, as indicated on
the right hand side of the appliance.
DOOR TRIM
Stratford fire doors are fitted with a brushed steel
finish trim as standard. This clips on to the small
lugs at the top and bottom of the aperture in the cast
iron fire door, as a "spring fit". When fitted, the trim
locks the glass retaining clips in position. (Fig 5)
The fire door should be removed so that the above
operations can be carried out on a workbench or
similar. Remove the door by GENTLY tapping the
door upwards; this will lift off of its hinges.

FIRE DOOR GLASS
If necessary the glass can be removed as follows
Step 1 Remove the brushed steel finish trim by
pressing on the curved edge at the top until the trim
can be disengaged from the lugs.
Step 2 Slide the two glass retainer clips on one side
only, inwards, towards the centre of the door as far
as they will go.
Step 3 Pull this side of the glass away from the door
casting, easing the tags on the glass retaining clips
past the edge of the aperture in the door casting.
