A quick look online suggests 160kg+ for the stove, I would guess 30kg for the hearth? Another 15kg for the weight on the floor for the flu? 

 

 

Weight of the flue should be discounted, its weight should be taken by wall or ceiling supports not the stove .

... should .... I didn't install mine so put a guess in there - suspect the whole thing is more than 15kg but there will be a portion of that weight on the floor.. but that is only a small part of what is quite a heavy install

are the 6x2 exposed down below in the garage? could you put another 6x2 across the corner into new wall plates to support the others? 

could you prop from below?

also as its in a corner the floor should be strong there.

best to get a good builder to take a look.

Assuming this is a Clearview 750 stove then that stove would usualy require 250mm of non combustible material under the stove.     However the Clearview web site suggests that 125mm is enough.
