Safety Distances
The indicated safety distances apply to flammable
materials or materials with flammable parts with a
thermal resistance of R ≤ 6 m²K/W
For particularly temperature-sensitive materials like
glass, larger distances may be necessary.
Within a radius of 90 cm in front of and 50 cm
around the stove, flammable, combustible, or heat-
sensitive materials (e.g. furniture, wood or plastic
panelling, curtains, etc.) are not allowed to be locat-
ed in the heat radiating area of the fire box window
(fig. 1).
Outside the radiation area of the fire box window,
a safety distance of 20 cm to flammable materials
is to comply sideways and behind the stove
(fig. 1). Above the stove, the safety distance of
75 cm to flammable materials has to be complied
with.
No flammable or temperature-sensitive materials
may be present within a radius of 20 cm around the
flue pipe connection (wall or room ceiling).
WARNING!
Flammable flooring materials (e.g., wood,
laminate, carpeting,) must be protected
with a floorplate made of non-combustible
material (e.g., tiles, safety glass, slate, or
sheet steel).
The size of the floorplate must be larger
than the base of the stove by at least 50
cm in front and at least 37 cm at the sides
of the stove.
Depiction of safe distances without rotary
function. Should a base plate be neces-
sary, the range of rotation of the chimney
stove must be adapted. (fig. 2)

Fuel Load Sizes and Thermal Output
The thermal output depends on the amount of fuel
you put in the stove. When adding more fuel, please
do not exceed the maximum fuel load size of 1,5 kg.
The fuel can be filled to the maximum height of 20
cm in the combustion chamber. Exceeding the maxi-
mum fuel load size leads to a danger of overheat-
ing, which can result in damage to the stove and the
risk of a stove fire.

NOTE!
To attain a thermal output of approx. 5 kW,
burn wood logs that weigh 1,3 kg and are
no longer than 25 cm in length for about
45 min. (with brown coal briquettes 2 bri-
quettes with a total of approx. 1 kg at ap-
prox. 60 min). The Lagos is intended for
intermittent operation, please only apply
one fuel layer at a time.
4.1 Wood Briquettes
You can also fuel your Lagos with wood briquettes
as specified in DIN 51731 Hb2 or of equal quality.
Please note that wood briquettes swell and expand
during combustion. As compared to the amount of
fuel when using logs, reduce the amount by approx.
10-20% based on the calorific value of the wood bri-
quettes. The control element settings and procedure
are the same as when burning logs.
