1.3 Directions for operation (Fig. 2)
The heat spreads through three means : by radiation through the front glass ; by convection around the hearth and in the
hood ; and by heating the water that circulates in the central heating system.
The adjusting of combustion rate is realised thanks to the primary air shutter located on the door of the ash pit. It is also
possible to adjust the combustion rate with the flue baffle at the top of the appliance. The flue baffle is a very efficient
draught adjusting element and with experience will prove very useful.
WARNING : Closing the flue baffle inopportunely results in a quick decrease in draught and in combustion rate which, in
some cases, can have the following consequences : progressive fire extinction and soot formation.
The speed of the water circulation can directly be adjusted on the circulator , a slow speed will allow a better absorption
of the calories so higher heat.

1.4 Operating conditions

Nominal heating power during continuous service :
•
Obtained with a draught of 12 Pa, for 1 hour burning time, with a 4,4 kg load of hard unsplit wood (oak,
hornbeam...), i.e. approx. 3 logs diameter 7 cm.
•
To maintain this value, reload on to a bed of embers of about 500 g, or 4 cm thick.
•
The mentioned power is the average power obtained during this one-hour tes : with air channel and main
flap open.
Slow combustion :
•
Obtained during a 6 Pa draft, nozzle closed and flap closed.
•
Reload on a 0,5 kg bed of ashes approximately (i.e. 4 cm thick).
•
Duration over 3 hours with an unchopped hard wood log of 3.4 kg.
•
Duration over 10 hours with one or two unchopped wood logs (logs with a long diameter are best), total
weight of 13 kgs.
The use of the appliance in normal working conditions allows to reach a maximal output which must not be exceeded
for safety reasons.
The maximum load is 15kgs of wood.
1.5 Dimensions - Overall dimensions (Fig. 1)
The minimum distance (Fig. 1) between logs must be carefully observed in order to allow the air conveyed to circulate
properly around the hearth.
