FUEL
- Use only dry wood with a maximum moisture content of 20%. Wood with a moisture
content higher than 50 or 60% does not heat and combusts very badly, and creates a
lot of tar, releases excessive amounts of vapour and deposits excess sediments onto the
stove, glass and smoke outlet.
- The fire should be lit using special fire lighters, or paper and small pieces of wood.
Never try to light the fire using alcohol or similar products.
- Do not burn domestic rubbish, plastic materials or greasy products that can pollute the
environment and lead to risks of fire due to obstruction of the pipes.
FUNCTION
- It is normal for smoke to appear during the first few uses of the stove, as certain
components of the heat-resistant paint burn whilst the pigment of the actual stove is
fixed. Therefore the room should be aired until the smoke disappears.
- The stove is intended to function intermitently with intervals for recharging the fuel.
- For the lighting process of the stove it is recommended you use paper, fire lighters or
small sticks of wood. Once the fire starts to burn, add to it two logs of wood each
weighing 1 to 1.3 Kg. as a first initial charge. In this lighting process the air inlets of the
stove must be kept completely open. If necessary the drawer for removing ashes can also
be opened to begin with. Once the fire is more intense, close the drawer completely (if
open) and regulate the intensity of the fire by closing and opening the air inlets.
- In order to achieve the stated nominal heat output of this stove a total quantity of 3.25 Kg.
of wood (roughly three logs weighing a little over 1 Kg. each) must be placed inside at
intervals of one hour. The logs should be positioned horizontally and separate from one
another, to assure a correct combustion. In any instance a charge of fuel must not be
added to the stove until the previous charge has been burnt, leaving only a basic fire
bed which is enough to light the next charge but no stronger.
- To achieve a slow combustion you should regulate the fire with the air draughts, which
must be kept permanently unblocked to allow the combustion air to be distributed.
- The lower drawer can be removed in order to clear out ash. Empty it regularly without
waiting for it to fill up too much. Take care with the ash which may still be hot up to 24
hours after the stove has been used.
- Keep children away from the stove.
- If you have trouble lighting the stove (due to cold weather, etc.) it can be lit with folded
or scrunched up paper which is easier to light.
- In case of the stove becoming too hot, close the air draughts to reduce the intensity of
the fire.
MAINTENANCE
- Never use water. Never clean the stove while it is in use.
