3.0 Safety precautions

3.1 Fire preventive measures

When using your stove always follow these safety
precautions:
• Never overfire the stove. This may cause serious
damage to the stove and the chimney.
• Never use gasoline or similar liquids to start a fire in
this heater.
• Avoid creating a "low pressure" condition in the room
where the stove is operating, because this could cause
poisonous gases to be drawn into the room.
• Never extinguish the flames or ashes with water during
use as this may damage your stove and possibly cause
injury to yourself.
• Make sure that the furniture and other flammable
materials do not get too close to the stove.
• Ash should be placed outdoors or be emptied in a place
where it will not represent a potential hazard.
• Be careful in using your stove because it is very hot.

3.2 Air supply

Warning! Please ensure that there is adequate ventilation
in the room in which the stove is to be installed.
An inadequate air supply could cause smoke gas to escape
into the room. This can lead to drowsiness, nausea and
sickness and is extremely dangerous.

4.1 Assembly prior to installation

Assembling the stove
1. Remove the cooking plate and all the separate parts

stove carefully down on its side. Fasten the 4 legs with
screws and washers. (Fig. 3.)

fire place. Raise the stove carefully.
4. The flue outlet and the cover plate exchange positions
if the smoke outlet on top of the stove is preferred. (Fig.
4.) The two screws on the flue outlet may be somewhat
difficult to release. Hold on to the nut on the inside with
a small wrench of the flue outlet to release the screws
on the outside. Ensure all possible unused flue outlets are
suitably blanked off.
5. Connect the knob to the door latch with the screw and
nut provided. (Fig. 2A)
