POSITIONING AND MOVING
The Clean Burn XL is available as a
stand- alone unit or with an integrated log
store base. We recommend people to
only buy the unit without the base if they
have a permanent location for the unit
and do not intend to move it.
If you have a unit with the log store base,
this has wheels meaning that the unit can
be wheeled carefully to secondary
positions for use and undercover during
winter or bad weather if you wish, but
due to the weight of the machine we
would advise you to keep the unit on a
single level and avoid attempting to move
up stairs etc. The unit should always be
positioned on a firm, level, and stable
surface. Once in position, the two locking
wheels should be locked, to avoid
movement during usage.
Position the log store in the desired
location with the open end of the two L-
shaped locating brackets as the front
face of the unit (Diagram 1.1).
Take care not to trap hand/finger between
the two units. Once in position secure the
main burner unit to the log store
base using the 4x bolts and washers
provided (Diagram 1.2). If you wish to
move the unit at any point ensure that
the two units are fixed together properly.
Once secured in place, you can slide the
flue pipe over the flue collar with the
angled ring meeting the top of the fire box.
A rain cap is provided to be used when
required.
CLEAN BURN XL POSITIONING,
LIGHTING & CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Lock the brakes on the two wheels so the
log store can not move and is firmly
positioned. Lift and slide the main burner
unit into the L-shaped locating brackets so
that the rear of the main burner unit base
is tight to the upstand of the L-brackets.

LIGHTING
Only well-seasoned or kiln dried logs
should be used with a maximum moisture
content of 20% and an approximate size
of 300mm x 70mm diameter. Use of
unseasoned damp logs will make lighting
the unit difficult resulting in smoke/tar
staining the glass, excessive smoke and
particle emissions and also minimal heat
output.
The below lighting procedure is designed
to ensure minimal smoke and particle
emission and also to minimise smoke
stains on the glass window. With
practice all the above will become easier to
achieve.
The Clean Burn XL has a door at each
end, with a sliding burning tray inside
each, which you can pull out to a stop-
point. There is an air lever positioned in
the centre of the front of the unit below
the glass to create the optimal air flow
across the full length of the unit. To start
the lighting process, pull out the air lever
fully, open the doors at each end and pull
out both trays until they reach their stop
point.
2
Set up a fire in both burning trays and we
recommend using the top-down lighting
method. Firstly place 2 or 3 small logs
bark down in each tray, followed by a
criss-cross of kindling on top and finally
couple of firelighters. Push the trays
back into position and light the
firelighters. Ensure the doors remain
slightly ajar to aid airflow. Once the
kindling is fully alight and the logs have
caught, you can close the doors.
However, if the fire dies back or the unit
begins to smoke excessively, reopen
them until you can close without any
change in the fire.
During the first firing the paint goes through a curing process. The unit may give off an
unpleasant odour and the paint will smoke; this is quite normal as the paint cures and will
disappear after a few uses. On the first lighting run the unit for at least an hour at a high
temperature. We recommend burning the unit as soon as possible after delivery to
complete this curing process. Until the paint is cured it is very soft and is susceptible to
marks and scratches. Please avoid touching the paint during the curing process as it will
be very soft until it has cured.

CARE
This is an outdoor product and as such is exposed to the elements. Therefore, it will
be susceptible to cosmetic and other immaterial deterioration over time such as rust.
To preserve the appearance of the unit maintenance will be required.
Always use the cover when the unit is not in use. You must remove the flue pipe to fit
the cover. At least once a month, and more regularly during bad weather, remove the
cover and wipe down all surfaces with a dry micro fibre cloth to remove any moisture
build-up and eradicate minor blemishes before they deteriorate further. A can of
touch-up spray paint has been provided to be used as necessary. Emptying the ash
trays and cleaning the glass with a Chesneys Atmosfire Dry wiper or 000 wire wool
will all combine to keep your XL looking its best.
3
When lighting the unit from cold, the 30 to 40 minutes to get up to full heat is very
important, as during this period all the internal components will be warmed up, ensuring
a good, clean combustion is maintained throughout usage.
If, during the lighting procedure the glass becomes excessively blackened or the unit is
smoking excessively, pull out the air lever to increase the flame.
Avoid burning more than 3 logs in each tray at any time as the unit has been designed to
burn efficiently. Overfiring or overfilling the unit can result in damage and lead to the
unit not operating correctly.
At the end of each period of use, the air lever should be pulled fully opened to allow the
fire to burn itself out quickly.
The air flow should be kept fully open for
the first 30 to 40 minutes, adding fuel as
required, to get the furnace up to
temperature and operating at its best.
After this time, assuming the fire is fully
established, the air flow lever can be
used to control the overall air supply to
the fire and the desired heat output. The
first logs will burn down quite quickly so
to refuel add 2-3 split logs on top of the
well burnt first layer.

Warning: Never attempt to clean the machine while hot.
WARNING! Never attempt to move the machine while hot and
always have the doors closed.
WARNING! The unit is very heavy and should only be moved by a
competent person.
WARNING! Do not use spirit or petrol for lighting or re-lighting. Use
only firelighters complying to EN 1860-3
Only genuine Chesney replacement parts should be used and are available online:

GUARANTEE AND WARRANTY
This warranty is for the original purchaser of the appliance from an authorised dealer/
stockist and who has registered the warranty as required. This warranty is
nontransferable. This warranty is in addition to and does not affect your statutory rights.
Your Chesneys Heater BBQ comes with the following warranty:
• A limited 3 year warranty on the structural integrity of the body. The warranty is for defects
in materials and workmanship. HEAT has been manufactured using quality materials to
resist corrosion as much as possible and use of specialist paint for metal surfaces suitable
for high temperature and outdoor use. The paint surface and various metals can be affected
by exposure to external factors including, but not limited to, chlorine, chemicals, humidity,
salt. The paint finish will also be compromised by surface scratches and abrasions. for this
reason, the warranty does not cover rust, oxidation, blemishes or fading. The Chesneys
HEAT range is for outdoor use only. It is exposed to the elements/weather including rain, sun,
snow, wind and damp and corrosion/wear and tear is to be expected. This does not detract
from the functioning of the product. Maintenance will be required to preserve the
appearance of the unit and touching up of the paint as necessary will be needed. Please
note units located within 10 miles of coastal areas will be subject to increased moisture and
salt levels and more frequent maintenance will be required.
• A limited 1 year warranty on the non-consumable parts such as the door, lid, handle,
hinges, air damper plate, wooden shelves, digital thermometer and thermocouple. The
wooden shelves must be treated with care and are not covered for normal outdoor
weathering, changes in colour or appearance and cracks/splitting unless there is a loss of
structural integrity.
Items such as fire bricks, baffle plate, glass, rope seal, door closing mechanism, ash
pan, fire grate and grill are consumable items and are not covered by a warranty. These
items will deteriorate over time and will need replacing. The length of time that these
parts last will depend on the type of fuel used, and how hot and long the appliance is
left to run. The fire bricks, rope seal and baffle plate are subjected to a huge amount of
stress while the unit is under fire, so they will appear stressed quite quickly and the
bricks can sometimes crack. This does not mean their integrity is compromised and
they will have plenty of life left in them. The bricks should be replaced when they have
eroded by 25% or you can see the steel behind them or they have cracked with a gap of
3mm or greater.

be addressed to the authorised dealer from whom the Heater BBQ has been purchased
and include the purchase receipt showing date of purchase and the name of the
dealer, a description of the problem and preferably visual evidence of the defect.
