Firing Manual - Wood - HWAM I30/55s Manuel D'utilisation

reconstruction progresses, there should be a gap of min . 5 mm between the brickwork and the outer
casing . The frame of the outer casing has a width of 25 mm, though only 20 mm at the top . Any brick-
work stretching across the outer casing must be self-supporting . Attach the casing to the masonry with
1-3 screws in the base .
Fire tubes and any convection ducts to other rooms should be fitted to the outer casing during the
reconstruction .
The outer casing is not load-bearing . Therefore, fire tubes exceeding 2 m in length and, possibly, the
chimney, must be secured (using hangers) thus avoiding putting any load on the outer casing .
When the reconstruction has been completed, mount the insert as described in point 1 .
Fitting the loose parts (Drawing C)
Before you start using the insert, you must ensure that all loose parts are fitted correctly .
a . Smoke plate (1) . Must lie on the rear plate and on the slanting side plates . It must fall into position in
the track on the rear plate .
b . Steel smoke deflector plate (2) . Is mounted on two hooks . To mount the plate, lift it up and lead to
the right until it is hanging on the two hooks .

Your first heating session
When you light up for the first time, you must do it carefully as all materials must be introduced to the
heat gradually . The lacquer will be fully hardened after the insert has been light up for the first time . The
door must be opened carefully; otherwise there is a risk that the seals will stick to the lacquer . In addi-
tion the lacquer may initially give off an unpleasant odour, so make sure that the room is well ventilated .
Tips about fuel:
Approved fuel types
The insert is EN approved for combustion of wood only . It is recommended to use dried chopped wood
with a water content of a maximum of 20% . Stoking a fire with wet wood results in soot, environmental
problems, and a less efficient fuel economy .
Recommended wood types
All types of wood, for instance birch, beech, oak, elm, ash, conifers, and fruit trees can be used as fuel in
your insert . The great difference is not in the fuel value, but in the weight of the wood types per cubic
metre . Since beech weighs more per cubic metre than for instance common spruce, it will take more
common spruce to produce the same amount of heat that you would get from a cubic metre of beech .
Banned fuel types
It is not allowed to stoke a fire with the following:
• Printed matter
• Plywood, plastic
• Rubber
• Fluid fuels
• Rubbish such as milk cartons, lacquered wood or impregnated wood .
• Fossil fuels
