2.SAFETY
Installer
Before continuing any further with the installation of this appliance please read the following
guide to manual handling.
-The lifting weight of this appliance (kg) is approx as below:
Model Weight
Inspire Stove Model L inc 401 engine* 40 Kg
Inspire Stove Model M inc 401 engine* 51 Kg
*excludes liner set & packaging.
These appliances are heavy. We therefore recommend that two person’s should be sufficient to
lift the fire. If fitting or moving the fire alone we recommend the use of suitable lifting apparatus.
-When lifting always keep your back straight. Bend your legs and not your back.
-Avoid twisting at the waist. It is better to reposition your feet.
-Avoid upper body/top heavy bending. Do not lean forward or sideways whilst
handling the fire.
-Always grip with the palm of the hand. Do not use the tips of fingers for support.
-Always keep the stove as close to the body as possible. This will minimise the
cantilever action.
-Use gloves to provide additional grip.
-Always use assistance if required.
-This product uses log fuel effect pieces, burner compartment walls and ceramic pebbles
containing Refractory Ceramic Fibres (RCF), which are man-made vitreous silicate fibres.
Excessive exposure to these materials may cause irritation to eyes, skin and respiratory
tract. Consequently, it is important to take care when handling these articles to ensure that
the release of dust is kept to a minimum. To ensure that the release of fibres from these
RCF articles is kept to a minimum, during installation and servicing we recommend that
you use a HEPA filtered vacuum to remove any dust and soot accumulated in and around
the fire before and after working on the fire. When replacing these articles we recommend
that the replaced items are not broken up, but are sealed within a heavy duty polythene
bag, clearly labelled as RCF waste. RCF waste is classed as a stable, non-reactive
hazardous waste and may be disposed at a landfill licensed to accept such waste.
Protective clothing is not required when handling these articles, but we recommend you
follow the normal hygiene rules of not smoking, eating or drinking in the work area and
always wash your hands before eating or drinking.
-This appliance does not contain any component manufactured from asbestos or
asbestos related products.
