!WARNING

READ AND FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS FULLY AND CAREFULLY

BEFORE INSTALLING AND USING THIS APPLIANCE.

To aid heater installation, remove door, bae system, and rebricks to reduce

overall heater weight. Refer to the set-up section of this manual.

!WARNING

Safety warnings

• A ue re with resulting damage may occur if the appliance is not

installed and maintained as per this booklet.

• Never place combustible materials such as wood, paper or furniture near

the appliance.

• This appliance is designed to burn dry hardwood. Do not burn

rubbish, driftwood, ammable liquids, pressurised canisters, or any

substance containing salt or corrosives.

• This appliance must not be installed and operated in an area where

kerosene, petrol, paint thinners, or other ammable liquid is used or stored.

• The ue system must be inspected and cleaned annually or sooner if

required. Failure to do so could result in excessive build up of creosote

which may result in a ue re, which may damage the ue or cause

damage to your home.

• The surface of the appliance becomes hot during operation. Do not

touch the surface of this appliance. Keep children away from the

appliance during operation. Do not allow anyone to operate this

appliance who is not familiar with this instruction booklet.

!WARNING

Paint curing and care

• Your heater is coated with the best available heat resistant paint. Even

though the paint has been baked after application, it may require further

temperature curing. It may discolour if you overre the heater on its rst

re. Please follow these instructions carefully to ensure the quality of the

paint on your heater is maintained.

• For the rst two or three rings, never exceed Medium air setting and

do not load the re more than half full. Do not use softwood fuel (cut up

pallets etc.) other than for kindling when rst lighting the re.

• Ensure that the lower air slide is fully closed once the re is established

during the curing process.

• On the initial re up you may detect smoke coming from the paint nish,

and from any oils that may be impregnated in the steel of the rebox.

This is normal. It is suggested to well ventilate your home on the initial

re up.

• Do not wipe the heater while the paint is curing. After the paint has

cured, the only maintenance required to maintain the heater’s nish is

to wipe it with a soft cloth (with water if necessary). DO NOT USE ANY

COMMERCIAL CLEANERS OR SOLVENTS ON THE PAINT FINISH.

• We are proud of the presentation of our products. If at any time you need

to freshen up the paint, your local Jindara dealer has touch-up

paint available for purchase.

The heater is painted in Stove Bright Metallic Black - Paint code 6309.

If you have any enquiries, please contact the dealer from whom you purchased your heater.

Troubleshooting + Tips

• Sluggish or Lazy Fire

• A sluggish or lazy re can be caused by a number of dierent factors, or a combination of several factors.

• Ensure that the wood you are burning is of good quality, and has been well seasoned to ensure its moisture

content is below 16%. Overly wet wood will cool the re, smoke excessively, and cause your unit to run poorly.

The best way to determine the moisture content of your wood is to use a digital moisture meter. Wood that looks

dry on the outside can still be high in moisture on the inside.

• Ensure that there is not a negative pressure inside your house. Wood burning res consume air as part of the

combustion process. They need a constant supply of air to function correctly. If your home is overly sealed and air

is unable to get to the re as needed, it will create a negative pressure inside the house compared to the outside,

which will cause your re to smoke and run poorly. Running extraction fans in your kitchen or bathroom can also

impact on this in well sealed modern homes. The best way to test for this is to try opening an external door or

window near the heater while it is running, to determine whether it runs better with ready access to outside air.

• Non-standard ue installations can also cause your re to run poorly if not correctly installed. The addition of

bends and elbows in the ue will restrict the ow of ue gases more than normal, meaning that you may need to

t an additional length of ue in order for your heater to draw properly.

• Environmental factors such as consistent wind, structures or vegetation near the ue outlet, or other unforeseen

factors can have a dramatic impact on the performance of your heater. These can usually be overcome by tting

an extra length of ue, or through the tment of a specialty cowl such as a wind chaser or a vertical discharge

cowl.

• Ensure you are putting enough wood in your re. Modern replaces are designed to run hotter and cleaner than

older designs. This means that they perform best when they are well stocked with wood and have a hefty bed

of hot coals. You will become familiar with the unit as you use it, and learn what sort of operation best suits your

needs and wood type. As a general rule it is best to start out by building a big re and then reducing the fuel load

to a level that you nd suitable for your needs. This allows the ue to reach an appropriate operating temperature

for it to draw properly from the beginning, which will promote an active re and good heat output.

Jindara Townsend Installation

!WARNING

THE INSTALLATION OF THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE CARRIED OUT AS PER THIS

MANUAL AND THE FLUE MANUFACTURER’S SPECIFICATIONS.

WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU USE A QUALIFIED INSTALLER TO CARRY OUT

THE INSTALLATION OF THIS APPLIANCE.

EXTREME CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN WHEN HANDLING THE APPLIANCE.

If you have any other enquiries regarding installation of the appliance, please

contact the dealer from whom you purchased the heater.

Installation

Scope Of Installation Speciﬁcations

The Jindara Townsend is tested in accordance with the requirements of AS/NZS 2918:2018 for the congurations

and ue types specied in this manual. Any installation that falls outside of the specications in this manual other than

the addition of bends or extensions to the ue, is considered to be an untested installation as per AS/NZS 2918:2018.

AF Gason Pty. Ltd. accepts no liability whatsoever for the safety of installations under such circumstances.

AF Gason Pty. Ltd. accepts no liability whatsoever for any interpretation of AS/NZS 2918:2018.

It is important that you understand these installation instructions and minimum clearances to combustible

materials before selecting a position for your wood heater, to ensure a safe and correct installation is achieved.

Installation Permit

Depending on your local authority requirements, a permit may be required for the installation of your heater. It is your

responsibility to arrange the same.

Flue Requirements

As per the dimensions in Table A (referencing gures 1 and 2), the Jindara Townsend must be installed with either of the

following ue types:

• Standard 6” Decromesh Default Flue Kit incorporating an additional 900mm high x 180 degree stainless steel rear

ue shield tted between the Decromesh and the active ue, or

• 6” Half shield Default Kit (Double Sleeve Flue Kit).

NOTE THAT INSTALLATION CLEARANCES ARE DIFFERENT FOR EACH FLUE TYPE.

The ue system installed with the Jindara Townsend must comply with Australian and New Zealand installation stan-

dards AS/NZS 2918:2018, and be installed to the ue manufacturer’s instructions.

The performance of your heater is highly dependant on an eective ue system. In many cases, poor start-up, dirty

glass, down draft causing smoke spillage when the door is open, and reduced heat output, can all be caused by the ue

system being too short or incorrectly installed. Excessive ue length is also undesirable, as it can cause excessive ue

draft, resulting in short burn times and over-ring of the heater.

Clearance To Combustibles

The Jindara Townsend conforms to AS/NZS 2918:2018 when positioned in relation to combustible surfaces as specied

in Table A (referencing gures 1 and 2), and as per these instructions. The gures shown state the minimum distance the

heater can be placed in relation to any combustible materials - plaster, wallpaper, timber, MDF, etc.

In the instance that your Jindara heater is surrounded by non-combustible materials - brick, stone, concrete, cement

sheet or similar, wall clearances can be reduced to 50mm. A 50mm clearance is required to ensure room air can circulate

around the wood heater during operation.

For further information regarding installation of your heater, please contact the Jindara dealer from whom you

purchased the heater.

Hearth & Floor Requirements

If the Jindara Townsend is to be installed onto a combustible oor, a cement sheet or similar non-combustible hearth

or oor (as per specications on page 3) protector must be placed in between the appliance and the combustible oor.

Minimum hearth requirements are specied in Table A (referencing gures 1and 2).

If the heater is to be installed onto a non-combustible surface that meets the minimum oor protector requirements

specied, an additional oor protector may not be required.

Troubleshooting + tips

• Air Controls Jamming

• Check that there are no visible physical obstructions to the air slides, such as charcoal or wood.

• Try freeing the air slide using WD-40, or a similar lubricant. It may be necessary to remove the air plates and gain

access to the air slides, in order to clean out any debris or contamination contributing to the jamming.

• Heater Emitting Smoke

• It is normal for your wood burning heater to emit a certain amount of smoke when the door is opened during

operation. Smoke will move in the path of least resistance as it rises from the re, and when your heater door is

opened, the opening becomes that path of least resistance.

• It is important that you adhere to the instructions in this manual, and that the heater is operated with the door

closed at all times, except for when you are lighting the re, or refuelling.

• A sluggish or lazy re will generate more smoke than an active hot re. If you have shut your re down for a long

burn, more smoke will be generated when you open the door.

• If you nd that your re is emitting noticable amounts of smoke into the room during normal operation, or

excessive amounts of smoke when the door is opened, check that the baes are correctly tted and in good

condition, and that there are no other visible defects with the heater. If there is no problem found with the heater

itself, there is more than likely a problem with your ue system and you should have it inspected by a plumber

for blockages or downdraft.

• No Overnight Burn

• Check that the air slides are not stuck open, and that the upper and lower air plates are xed securely to the door.

• Ensure that the baes are correctly installed and are free from any damage.

• Ensure that the door rope is sealing against the door opening, all the way around the door opening. This can be

checked by placing a strip of paper between the door and the rebox and closing the door, then checking to see

if the paper is clamped in place or free to move. If the paper is free to move, you will need to inspect your door

seal and either replace the rope or adjust your door catch.

• Ensure that you have a reasonable ash bed in the base of your rebox. The ash bed acts as a heat store, and helps

to maintain hot coals once the re has burnt low.

• Ensure that you are loading your re with good quality hardwood, and in sucient quantities for an overnight

burn. You should try to ll the rebox as much as possible when loading for an overnight burn, with large logs at

least 15cm in diameter.

• Round logs with smooth outer surfaces tend to take longer to burn when compared to logs that have been split

from larger pieces and have exposed rough surfaces.

• Excessive Ash Build Up

• Dierent types of wood will generate dierent amounts of coals and ash, depending on its composition and on

how you use the heater. Given the variety of wood available in Australia, you will need to determine which wood

is available to you that best suits the heater.

• All testing and certication for wood heaters sold in Australia is carried out using seasoned River Red Gum,

which is an energy dense hardwood. Red Gum burns hot with large coals that reduce to very little ash, and is the

recommended wood in ideal circumstances.

• Depending on what wood is available to you, you may nd that your rebox builds up with ash more quickly than

desired. This is unfortunately a function of the wood being burnt, not the heater itself.

• Ensure your wood is well seasoned and not overly sappy. Good hardwood with moisture content below 16% is

ideal.

• Burning bark will generate excessive ash, try to avoid burning it.

• Consistently running your re with the air slides shut down will generate excessive coals and ash, as well as

creosote build up. Burning a hot re will help to reduce these back down after a couple of cycles.
