1.6 Description of safety instructions on the
product
In no case, fill in combustibles
in warm condition.

1.7 Operation

• SPIN is a decorative fireplace for private use indoors and outdoors
• SPIN must not be used for heating purposes
• Remove all packaging materials prior to operation.
• Check the safety container (main body that screws onto the stand) and
refill can for leaks and other damage before each use. If any damage
to these components is visible, the use of SPIN is expressly prohibited,
safe operation cannot be guaranteed.
• Defective or damaged parts may only be replaced with original höfats
spare parts. If non-original höfats spare parts are used, safe operation
of the fireplace cannot be guaranteed and is therefore expressly
prohibited.
• Before each use, check whether there is fuel in the safety container. If
there is fuel in the safety container, it must be removed before use to
ensure safe operation.
Assembly
Prior to every use, check SPIN as to
damages. Screw the threaded pin of the
main unit onto the threads in the footing.
When the main unit lies on the footing,
one full turn has to be effected in order to
establish the connection. You can place the
glass cylinder next to SPIN before lighting
the device.
Refill
Let the refill cup cool off before refilling
it. Only fill the cup with höfats fire gel. We
can only guarantee SPIN's safe usage if you
exclusively use höfats fire gel. Do not fill the
cup beyond the lower edge of the opening.
Never pour combustion gel directly into
the fireplace, for otherwise the combustion
gel can pour out and an uncontrolled fire
can be caused. Therefore, always use the
standard cans supplied.
Lighting
When lighting the combustion gel,
make sure to observe sufficient safety
clearance. Therefore, only use a long-
handled lighter or a long match.
ATTENTION: After lighting SPIN, the
flames of the combustion gel are hardly
visible.
In no case, fill in combustibles
during operation.
Putting on the glass cylinder
To make sure that the burning gel has been
successfully ignited, set the glass cylinder
onto the protruding pins of the main unit
after approx. 2 min. Hold the glass cylinder
in centered position. Always use fireproof
gloves (e.g. barbecue gloves). As the height
of the flames develops only gradually, no
danger is given. In the beginning, some
water vapor arises and the glass becomes
foggy – however, this water vapor vanishes
soon
During operation
Due to the chimney effect and the wings of
SPIN, a high, beautiful and rotating flame
is created.
The fireplace and above all the glass
cylinder get extremely hot during operation
so that every contact can cause severe
burns.
For this reason, SPIN must not be moved
during operation. Any movement can
moreover cause the combustion gel to be
spilt and thus lead to an uncontrolled fire.
Do not pour water over SPIN during or immediately after operation. This
can lead to damage of the product.
Extinguishing
Always keep the extinguishing lid near the de-
vice.
We generally recommend to let the can burn
down completely until it is extinct.
Otherwise, put the lid onto the glass cylinder
and wait until the flame is completely extinct.
For extinguishing the flame, only use the lid
supplied. Hold the lid at the small flap.
Attention: in the combustion chamber, small
flames – which are not visible from the outside
– can blaze for a long time. Even if the fire is
completely extinct, the still hot can might infla-
me refilled combustion gel.
Never extinguish the flame with water – this
can lead to a steam explosion and cause se-
vere burns.
Re-lighting
When the flames are extinct, let SPIN cool off completely
before cleaning.
Take care that you never refill a hot or warm refill cup or can.
The hot gel forms – together with air – a highly flammable,
even explosive mixture.
If you nevertheless want to immediately relight SPIN, it is essential to
observe the following points:
• The glass cylinder is extremely hot; always wear fireproof gloves (e.g.
barbecue gloves) in order to remove the glass.
• In no case relight a hot combustion gel can; the hot bioethanol forms –
together with air – a highly flammable, even explosive mixture.
• Remove the hot combustion gel can; always wear fireproof gloves (e.g.
barbecue gloves).
• Carefully insert a new combustion gel can, a filled refill cup or a filled
combustion gel can into SPIN. Observe the previous instructions
