The wood is not a fuel which allows a continuous operation of the appliance, as consequence the heating all over the night is not possible.

ATTENTION : the continuous and protracted use of aromatic wood (eucalyptus, myrtle etc.) quickly damages the cast iron
parts (cleavage) of the product.
The declared technical data have been achieved by burning beech wood class "A1" according to the requirement UNI EN IsO 17225-5 and
wood moisture content less than 20%. By burning a different kind of wood the efficiency of the product itself could change and some specific
adjustments on the appliance could be needed.

LIgHTINg

WARNINg: After the first ignition you can smell bad odours (owing to the drying of the glue used in the garnitures or of the paint)
which disappear after a brief using of the appliance. It must be ensured, in any case, a good ventilation of the environment.
Upon the first ignition we suggest loading a reduced quantity of fuel and slightly increasing the calorific value of the equipment.
It is fORBIDDEN to use any liquid substance as for ex. alcohol, gasoline, oil and similar.
Never switch on the device when there are combustible gases in the room.
To perform a correct first lighting of the products treated with paints for high temperature, it is necessary to know the following information:
• the construction materials of the involved products are not homogeneous, in fact there are simultaneously parts in cast iron, steel,
refractory material and majolica;
• the temperature to which the body of the product is subject is not homogeneous: from area to area, variable temperatures within the
range of 300°C - 500°C are detected;
• during its life, the product is subject to alternated lighting and extinguishing cycles in the same day, as well as to cycles of intense use
or of absolute standstill when season changes;
• the new appliance, before being considered seasoned has to be subject to many start cycles to allow all materials and paints to
complete the various elastic stresses;
• in detail, initially it is possible to remark the emission of smells typical of metals subject to great thermal stress, as well as of wet paint.
This paint, although during the manufacture it is backed at 250 °C for some hours, must exceed many times and for a given period of
time the temperature of 350 °C before becoming completely embedded in the metallic surfaces.
Therefore, it is extremely relevant to take these easy steps during the lighting:
1. Make sure that a strong air change is assured in the room where the appliance is installed.
2. During the first starts, do not load excessively the combustion chamber (about half the quantity indicated in the instructions manual)
and keep the product continuously ON for at least 6-10 hours with the registers less open than the value indicated in the instructions
manual.
3. Repeat this operation for at least 4-5 or more times, according to your possibilities.
4. Then load more and more fuel (following in any case the provisions contained in the installation booklet concerning maximum load)
and, if possible, keep the lighting periods long avoiding, at least in this initial phase, short ON/OFF cycles.
5. During the first starts, no object should be leaned on the appliance and in detail on enameled surfaces. Enameled surfaces
must not be touched during heating.
6. Once the «break-in» has been completed, it is possible to use the product as the motor of a car, avoiding abrupt heating with excessive
loads.
To light the fire, it is suggested to use small wood pieces together with paper or other traded lighting means.
The openings for air (primary and secondary) must be opened together (you must open the eventual Ignition control, and butterfly valve
placed on the pipe of smokes exhaust). When the wood starts burning, you may load other fuels and adjust the air for combustion according
to the instructions on paragraph TECHNICAL DEsCRIPTION.
Please always be present during this phase.
Never overload the appliance (see cap. TECHNICAL DEsCRIPTION / hourly consumption). Too much fuel and too much air for
combustion can cause overheating and therefore damage the appliance. The warranty does not cover the damages due to
overheating of the equipment.
