Combustion air

Being the user of the stove you must take care of a sufficient

combustion air supply. Sealed-up windows and doors may

not allow a sufficient combustion air supply or disturb the

draught behaviour of your stove. Please ensure the additional

supply of fresh combustion air if necessary. For details please

consult your specialist retailer. Make sure that the

combustion air intakes are not blocked!

3. CORRECT OPERATION OF YOUR STOVE

Approved fuels

Dry, well cured and natural wood (hardwood preferred), wood

briquettes.

Maximum amount of fuel

Maximum amount of fuel to be added: 2 kg wood or 1,8kg

briquettes. Larger amounts of fuel can lead to overheating

and thus damage the stove.

Clean burning

The wood must be dry (relative wood moisture < 20%) and

untreated and the right amount of wood must be burned in

order to ensure a clean fire that releases only small amounts

of emissions.

Startup procedures

During the first 3 - 4 operations - at nominal heat output -

there may be some odour development and the varnish has

not yet hardened.

Making a fire

For the correct and safe operation of your stove please pay

attention of the chimney developing the necessary feed

pressure. This must especially be considered before the

initial operation (or e.g. after the summer heating break) and

during the mid-season heating periods (e.g. at strong wind,

etc.). If there is not enough feed pressure, please light only

some paper or small kindling first, in order to "warm up" the

stove and the chimney.

The air inlet must not be covered or closed.

Clean grate, empty ash drawer if necessary.

(watch out for ambers)!

Position the lever for the combustion air to the fully open

position (see Fig. 7).

Place 2 - 3 logs (approx. 1,3 kg in total) crossways in the

combustion chamber (1) with sufficient distance from each

other (min. 2 cm), on top of that place some softwood

chippings (approx. 0,5 kg) (2) and some ignition aid and light

(3) (see fig. 5).

Stove pipe connection

For your own safety stringent laws apply for connecting the

stove pipes to the chimney. Your professional dealer or

distributor knows these laws. Please have your certified

retailer carry out the connection of your stove.

We recommend to let the first load burn down without

changing the air lever position.

As soon as no visible flames are left (only embers in the

combustion chamber), you can put another load of logs

(approx. 2 kg) in the combustion chamber if desired.

When reloading the stove please repeat the procedure as

mentioned under "first lighting": air lever to open position,

open door carefully, place logs, close door.

After a few minutes, when the logs burn well on all sides

(bright, high flames – see fig. 6), you can adjust the heat

output with the air lever (see fig. 7). The flames should be

yellow and never look blueish or have black tips (otherwise

add more air – see fig. 7). Never close air supply completely

during operation (danger of flash-fire).

The stove door may be opened only for refuelling or disposing

of ashes and is to be closed again afterwards.

Heating in-between seasons

If you heat the stove in between seasons, when the outside

temperatures are higher, the flue gases may not be able to

escape completely and this may lead to disturbances in the

chimney draught, especially if the temperatures are rising

suddenly. The stove has to be charged with less wood then

and the primary air has to be increased so that the wood can

burn down faster (with visible flames) and thus the chimney

draught can stabilize.

Chimney fire

A chimney fire may occur, due to sooting and deposits in the

chimney, if impropes or humid fuel is used. In case of a

chimney fire close all air inlets on the fireplace/chimney

immediately and call the fire brigade. Please have an expert

inspect your chimney for cracks and air-tightness after the

burning out of the chimney.
