It directs combustion air from the top of the door
and creates a film over the glass pane that

Lighting up for the first time
We recommend a slow fire for 3 to 4 hours when
lighting-up for the first time. This will help stabilise
the different components and avoid any possible
breakages.
In order to light up the stove, start by opening the
primary combustion air valve and the glass pane
cleaning valve by moving the lever to the right.
Once you have achieved the combustion rate you
desire, adjust the valves to maintain it. Usually,
you may close the primary air valve completely
and control the level of combustion with the glass
pane cleaning air valve.
When lighting for the first times, you may notice
smells due to the polimerisation of the paint or
lining covering certain parts of the unit. This is
normal and disappears after 3 or 4 uses.
Daily use
After lighting up for the first time, your heater will
be ready for daily use. When your heater is cold,
we recommend lighting it up slowly.

The heat you wish to generate in your stove will
depend on the frequency and the amount of
firewood you load.
Depending on the temperature required, regulate
the rate of combustion by adjusting the air inlet
valves.
Overheating
Overheating means that you have operated your
heater at excessively high temperatures for a long
period of time. This can damage your unit and,
therefore, it is a situation that must be avoided.
Overheating is the result of excessive draw, due to
any of the following reasons:
 The Primary Air Valve is excessively open for the
type of wood being used.
 The chimney is too big.
 Improper maintenance of the stove, which may
result in air infiltration.
 Inappropriate
temperatures.
 Door not closed correctly.
The stove grate is movable and removable for easy
cleaning (Fig. 5).
The ash pan is located beneath.

Baffle plate
A steel baffle protects the top of the stove.
To remove it when in order to clean the stove, remove
the cast iron internal protections, move it forward, let
it drop back, then turn it left leaving the nerve

pictures).
If you wish to install the deflector, perform the same
steps in the opposite order.
