PPLIANCE D IMENSIONS
F LUE OUTLET POSITION
The flue outlet angle and osition is
determined by the orientation of the flue
collar. The outlet can be either vertical or
leant backwards by 30°. To change the angle,
rotate the flue collar by 180°. The effective
centre dimensions in millimeters are shown
below.
F LUE R EQUIREMENTS
The flue serving this a liance must be dry,
free from cracks and obstructions and be in
accordance with the designations shown in
Table 1.
The diameter of the flue should not be less
than 150mm and not more than 200mm. If
these requirements are not met the chimney
should be lined by a suitable method.
If there is no existing chimney then either a
refabricated block chimney in accordance
with Building Regulations A roved
Document J or a twin-walled insulated
stainless steel flue to BS EN 1856 can be used.
These chimneys must be fitted in accordance
with the manufacturer’s instructions and
Building Regulations.

The chimney/flue should have a vertical
height of at least 4.5 metres and should
terminate in accordance with Table 2.
If the chimney is believed to have reviously
served an o en fire installation, it is ossible
that the higher flue gas tem erature from the
stove may loosen de osits that were
reviously firmly adhered, with the
consequent risk of flue blockage. It is
therefore recommended that the chimney is
swe t a second time within a month of
regular use after installation.
If yo have any do bts abo t the s itability
of yo r chimney, cons lt yo r local
dealer/stockist.
Both the chimney and fl e pipe m st be
accessible for cleaning and if ANY part of the
chimney cannot be reached thro gh the
stove (with baffle removed), a soot door
m st be fitted in a s itable position.

LUE D RAUGHT
If the draught exceeds the recommended
maximum a draught stabilizer must be fitted
so that the rate of burning can be controlled
and to revent over firing.
If the reading is less than the recommended
minimum then the erformance of the
a liance will be com romised.
The flue draught should be checked under fire
at high out ut.
Minim m Dra ght – 1.2mm Water Ga ge
Maxim m Dra ght – 2.5mm Water Ga ge
P REPARING THE STOVE FOR INSTALLATION
The firebox m st be separated from the
o ter convection chamber prior to fitting the
stove. This allows easier handling of the
stove and protects the internal firebox from
damage d ring the installation process. It is
also recommended that the loose internal
components (fire bricks and log retainer)
within the firebox are removed.
1. To o en the stove door, ress on the
door handle to release it from the
latch. Swing the door handle out to
the right until the mechanism engages

IMPORTANT!
This appliance may be installed either into a
solid non-comb stible opening or into an
enclos re fabricated from non-comb stible
sheet material as per the specifications in
these instr ctions. For installation
instr ctions covering the approved enclos re
design please proceed to page 9.
D IRECT A IR A DAPTOR AND C ONVECTION D UCT
K ITS
If fitting either the Direct Air Ada tor Kit or
Convection Duct Kit the dimensions of the
o ening may need to be altered. Read the
instructions su lied with the kit before
roceeding.
I NSTALLATION INTO A SOLID NON - COMBUSTIBLE
WALL
This stove must be fitted on a hearth or base
with adequate load bearing ca acity. The
o ening into which this stove is fitted should
be constructed wholly from non-combustible
materials. The dimensions of the o ening
should be at least those shown in the
diagram. Ensure there is a sufficient overla
where the convection chamber flange meets
the face of the o ening. If not, either the
o ening should be made smaller, or a suitable
fire surround should be fitted to reduce the
o ening dimensions.
Any non-comb stible walls within 50mm of
this appliance sho ld be at least 200mm
thick and sho ld extend at least 300mm
above the top of the appliance and at least
1.2 metres above the hearth. Any walls more
than 50mm from the appliance may be
red ced to a thickness of 75mm. Ens re the
inter-connecting fl e pipe also has adeq ate
clearances to comb stible materials.
The wall above the stove will become hot and
should therefore be finished in a heat
resistant laster. IMPORTANT Do not hang
pict res, electrical eq ipment or ornaments
above the stove, as these co ld be damaged
and co ld potentially create a fire hazard.

7
H
EARTH R EQUIREMENTS
A constructional hearth with a minimum
thickness of 125mm should be rovided.
The constructional hearth should be made
of solid non-combustible material and can
include any solid non-combustible floor.
The boundary of the hearth must be
clearly marked. This can be done by
adding a su er-im osed hearth on to of
the constructional hearth – e.g. a slate
slab on to of a solid concrete floor.
A liances installed with the base late
lower than 560mm above the hearth
should have a constructional hearth
extending to at least 650mm in front of
the stove and 150mm at the sides.
A liances installed with their base late
560mm or more above the hearth require a
constructional hearth with a de th of 225mm
in front of the stove. The base on which the
stove is mounted should be an extension of
the constructional hearth – i.e. all material
between the stove base and the
constr ctional hearth m st be solid non-
comb stible material.
C LEARANCES TO C OMBUSTIBLE M ATERIALS
There should be no combustible materials for
a distance of 400mm either side of the stove
or 680mm above. No combustible furniture
should be laced any closer than 1200mm
from the front of the stove.
Allow s fficient clearance between the stove
and pict res, electrical eq ipment or
ornaments etc., as these co ld be damaged
and co ld potentially create a fire hazard.

F
ITTING THE S TOVE
IMPORTANT – Read this section caref lly and
ens re that any req ired access holes,
register plates or fl e connections are in
place before carrying o t the installation.
If the installation is to be back filled with
vermic lite concrete the convection chamber
flange sho ld be sealed to the fireplace sing
fire cement, heat proof silicone or similar
material. All seams in the convection
chamber sho ld also be sealed.
It is recommended that the convection
chamber flange is sealed to the fireplace in
all cases as this will red ce the chance of
airflow into any voids red cing the stoves
efficiency or the ingress of npleasant smells
into the room.
If fitting the Direct Air Adaptor Kit the
instr ctions s pplied with the kit sho ld be
read in conj nction with these instr ctions.
1. Offer the convection chamber into
osition in the recess ushing it back
far enough so that the flanges on the
edges are ushed u tightly against
the front face of the chimney
breast/fire lace.
2. Drill a 6mm hole into the hearth in the
centre of the base late fixing hole.
Use the screw su lied to fix the
stove in lace.
Any voids aro nd the stove m st be in-filled
with vermic lite concrete with a
recommended mix of six parts vermic lite to
one part Ordinary Portland Cement. This may
be carried o t once the fl e has been fitted
provided a s itable access hole for backfilling
is made in the chimney breast (see section on
connection to a masonry chimney). S fficient
water sho ld be added so that when a
handf l of the mixt re is sq eezed no more
than one or two drops of water are released.
F LUE CONNECTION
The flue connection is made to the convection
chamber and not to the firebox. The
connection between the flue and firebox is
com leted when the firebox is re-fitted to the
convection chamber.
Dependent on the type of installation the fl e
collar may need to be connected to the
convection chamber before or after
installation of the fl e/liner.
1. Determine the required orientation of
the flue collar (vertical or leant
backwards by 30°).
2. Offer the flue collar into osition from
inside the convection chamber and fix
in lace using the four M8
countersunk screws. Ens re that the
screw heads are not pro d of the fl e
collar flange.
If connecting to a stainless steel liner, the flue
liner and single skin ada tor can be lowered
down the chimney and the s igot end of the
ada tor lowered into the convection
chamber. The flue collar can then be
connected to the ada tor.
The com leted flue collar assembly can then
be ushed u to the to of the convection
chamber and secured in osition using the
four M8 countersunk screws. Check the
clearance of the flue liner ada tor through the
to of the convection chamber before
deciding on this method.

9
If connecting to an existing masonry chimney
it is recommended that a flue forming i e
(short length of flue i e) is used and the void
between the flue forming i e and the
chimney is filled with vermiculite concrete.
A suitable access hole will need to be made in
the chimney breast to allow the back filling to
be carried out and then filled and sealed once
the installation is com lete.
Alternatively a connection can be made using
a register late although it will be necessary
to allow access for fitting the flue i e to the
register late and sealing all joints.

C
OMMISSIONING
U on com letion of the installation allow a
suitable eriod of time for any fire cement
and mortar to dry out. A small fire may then
be lit and the installation checked to ensure
the smoke and fumes are drawn u the flue
and emitted safely to atmos here. The stove
should not be run at full out ut for at least 24
hours. Read the Operating Instr ctions
before lighting the stove for the first time.
O erating Instructions
Read the ‘General G idance’ Section at the
start of these instr ctions before operating
yo r stove for the first time.
IMPORTANT! - Do not hang pict res,
televisions or comb stible ornaments above
the stove, as these co ld be damaged and
co ld potentially create a fire hazard (For
more information read the ‘Clearance to
Comb stible Materials’ section of the
installation instr ctions on page 7).
WARNING! – This appliance will be hot when
in operation and d e care sho ld be taken.
The s pplied operating tool or gloves may be
sed to open the door and operate the air
controls.
T HE C LEAN A IR A CT 1993 AND S MOKE C ONTROL
A REAS
Under the Clean Air Act 1993 local authorities
may declare the whole or art of the district
of the authority to be a smoke control area. It
is an offence to emit smoke from a chimney of
a building, from a furnace or from any fixed
boiler if located in a designated smoke control
area. It is also an offence to acquire an
"unauthorized fuel" for use within a smoke
control area unless it is used in an "exem t"
a liance ("exem ted" from the controls
which generally a ly in the smoke control
area).
The Secretary of State for Environment, Food
and Rural Affairs has owers under the Act to
authorize smokeless fuels or exem t
a liances for use in smoke control areas in
England. In Scotland and Wales this ower
rests with Ministers in the devolved
administrations for those countries. Se arate
legislation, the Clean Air (Northern Ireland)
Order 1981, a lies in Northern Ireland.
Therefore it is a requirement that fuels burnt

15
or obtained for use in smoke control areas
have been "authorized" in Regulations and
that a liances used to burn solid fuel in
those areas (other than "authorized" fuels)
have been exem ted by an Order made and
signed by the Secretary of State or Minister in
the devolved administrations.
Further information on the requirements of
the Clean Air Act can be found here:
http://smokecontrol.defra.gov. k/
Your local authority is res onsible for
im lementing the Clean Air Act 1993 including
designation and su ervision of smoke control
areas and you can contact them for details of
Clean Air Act requirements.
The Di Lusso R6 has been recommended as
suitable for use in Smoke Control Areas when
burning wood logs.
R ECOMMENDED F UEL
This a liance is designed and a roved to
burn wood logs with a moisture content not
exceeding 20%. The maximum recommended
log length is 250mm (10”).
Burn only dry, well-seasoned wood, which
should have been cut, s lit and stacked for at
least 12 months, with free air movement
around the sides of the stack to enable it to
dry out. Burning wet or unseasoned wood will
create tar de osits in the stove and chimney,
increase harmful emissions and will not
roduce a satisfactory heat out ut.
Do not b rn waste, mineral f el, or treated
or painted wood in this appliance.
A IR C ONTROLS
Installed and sed correctly this stove will
b rn cleanly and efficiently. Therefore, to
avoid the disappointment of poor
performance or dirty glass, please familiarize
yo rself with the controls and their
recommended settings before se.
To prevent excess smoke emissions, the air
controls of this appliance m st only be
operated as directed in the instr ctions.
To access the air controls ress on the door
handle to release it from the latch and swing
it to the right.
If the door handle is sw ng past the point
where resistance is felt the door will be
nlatched and may swing open.
When the stove is hot the door handle can be
released by ressing the end of the o erating
tool against the arm below the handle. This
will revent damage to the aint.
Alternatively a glove can be used.
Ignition Air control – regulates air flow
directly into the firebed. This is used when
lighting from cold or when reviving a fire that
has nearly burnt out. Turn clockwise to o en
and anti- clockwise to close. The Ignition Air
Control m st be closed once the fire is
established.
Comb stion Air Control
Ignition Air Control

16
Comb stion Air Control – regulates the flow
of air downwards into the combustion
chamber via the airwash (airflow over the
inside of the glass) and the air inlet at the
back of the firebox (below the tertiary air inlet
– see below). Turn clockwise to o en and anti-
clockwise to close. This control is sed to
reg late the b rn rate and therefore heat
o tp t of the stove.
Tertiary Air – Tertiary Air enters the firebox
through the series of holes in the rear wall.
This air su ly hel s to reduce emissions into
the atmos here. The tertiary air su ly is
fixed and cannot be adjusted.
L
IGHTING
We recommend that yo have two or three
small fires before yo operate yo r stove to
its maxim m heat o tp t. This is to allow the
paint to c re in steadily and to give a long
service life to the paint finish. D ring this
c ring in process yo may notice an
npleasant smell. It is non-toxic, b t for yo r
comfort we wo ld s ggest that d ring this
period yo leave all doors and windows
open.
To light the fire, load the firebox with starting
fuel, i.e. a er, dry sticks and/or firelighters.
F lly open both air controls (clockwise) and
light the fire at the base.
Once the fire is established close the Ignition
Air Control (anti-clockwise) and add more fuel
as necessary. The Combustion Air control can
now be used to regulate the burn rate of the
stove.
When the stove is u to o erating
tem erature the o erating tool or gloves
should be used to o erate the air controls.
R ECOMMENDED S ETTINGS
Once the fire is established the Ignition Air
Control should be fully closed and the
Combustion Air Control turned to a setting of
a roximately 40 -50% o en. This setting
should allow the nominal out ut and
efficiency to be achieved.
Avoid r nning the stove on very low air
settings as this co ld res lt in a red ction in
efficiency and increase emissions into the
atmosphere.
REFUELLING
Avoid refueling on to a low firebed as this may
cause excessive smoke emission. Ensure there
are sufficient embers to ignite the new fuel
load ra idly. Alternatively add some more
kindling before adding larger ieces of
firewood.
Do not add firewood above the level of the
tertiary air inlet at the back of the stove.
Exceeding this amount can result in the
roduction of excessive smoke.
D E -A SHING
From time to time it will be necessary to
remove excess ash from the firebox. This can
be done by lifting u the right hand side of the
log retainer and swinging it to the left. Ash
can then be removed with a small shovel.

shown on age 5.
Side firebricks – remove the baffle and lift the
side bricks away from the base and remove.
Rear Firebricks – After removing the side
firebricks, swing the base of the u er rear
brick towards the front of the stove. Re eat
with the lower rear brick to remove it from
under the ignition air bar.
M ONTHLY M AINTENANCE
Baffle – this should be removed and cleaned
at least once a month to revent any buildu
of soot or ash that could lead to blocked
flueways.
Firebricks – in normal use these can last for
many years. It is ossible, however, to
damage them if care is not taken when
refueling the stove. Check eriodically for
seriously cracked bricks, which can be
re laced with new, available from your
dealer.
Air Valve Cassette – this should be removed
and cleaned monthly to remove any ash that
may be in the controls. N.B. Make s re that
the controls are in the maxim m position
(t rned f lly clockwise) before removing the
air valve cassette.

ossible to swee all arts of the chimney
through the a liance, ensure there is
adequate access to cleaning doors.
If the stove is fitted in lace of an o en fire
the chimney should be swe t one month after
installation to clear any soot falls which may
have occurred due to the difference in
combustion between the stove and the o en
fire.
