4.7 Handle
If you want a fi rm handle, you can mount the long screw (M5x20)
that you will fi nd in the service bag. The vertical position of the
handle can be adjusted by the pointed screw on the locking
device.

5.0 Daily use

Odours when using the fi replace for the fi rst
time
When the fi replace is used for the fi rst time, it may emit an
irritating gas which may smell slightly. This is because the
paint is drying. The gas is not toxic but the room should be
thoroughly ventilated. Let the fi re burn with a high draught
until all traces of the gas have disappeared and no smoke or
odours can be detected.
5.1 Operation
Heating advice
NB: Logs that have been stored outdoors or in a cold room
should be brought indoors 24 hours before use to bring them
up to room temperature.
There are various ways of heating the stove but it is always
important to be careful about what you put in the stove. See
the section on "Wood quality".
Wood quality
The logs should be dried so that the moisture content is no
more than 20%.
To achieve this, the logs should be cut no later than in late
winter. They should be split and stacked in a way that ensures
good ventilation. The wood stacks should be covered to protect
the logs from rain. The logs should be brought indoors during
early autumn and stacked/stored for use in the coming winter.
Be especially careful never to use the following materials as
fuel in your fi replace:
Household rubbish, plastic bags, etc.
Painted or impregnated timber (which is extremely toxic).
Laminated wooden planks.
Driftwood
These may harm the stove and are also pollutants.
NB: Never use petrol, paraffi n, methylated spirit or similar
liquids to light the fi re. You may cause serious injury to yourself
and damage to the product.
5.2 Lighting the fi re
Wood consumption:
Kindling (fi nely split wood):
Length: approx. 30 cm
Diameter: 2-5 cm
Quantity required each time: 6 - 8 pieces
36
Wood (split wood):
Recommended length: 20 - 30 cm
Diameter: Approx. 8 cm
Fire size: 1.8 kg
Quantity required each time: 2 pieces
1. Place two logs across the bottom of the burn chamber.

4. Open the ignition (Fig. 10-2) and air vent (Fig. 10-1) fully
until the wood has caught fi re properly and is burning well.
5. Check that afterburning (secondary combustion) starts. This
is best indicated by yellow, fl ickering fl ames in front of the
holes under the baffl e.
6. Close the ignition vent and regulate the air vent as required.
7. The ash pan must always be closed when the fi re is lit.
8. The ash grate (Fig. 10-3) should be half-open when the fi re
is lit.
Adding fi rewood
Stoke the stove frequently but only add small amounts of
fuel at a time. If the stove is fi lled too full, the heat created
may cause extreme stress in the chimney.
Add fuel to the fi re in moderation.
Avoid smouldering fi res as this produces the most pollution.
The fi re is best when it is burning well and the smoke from
the chimney is almost invisible.
5.3 Danger of overheating
The fi replace must never be used in a manner that causes
overheating
Overheating occurs when there is too much fuel and/or
too much air so that too much heat develops. A sure sign of
overheating is when parts of the stove glow red. If this happens,
reduce the air vent opening immediately.
Seek professional advice if you suspect that the chimney
is not drawing properly (too much/too little draught). (For
further information, see "Chimney and fl ue pipe" under 4.0
Installation).
