4. SUITABLE FUELS
The SAEY 92 stove makes use of the following fuels:
•
WOOD: Logs with sticky bark, e.g. cleaved logs with a length of 45 cm. The wood should be
stored for about 2 years, and should have a maximum residual humidity level of 20 %. Wet wood
does not burn well and produces smoke, resulting in condensation and a tar discharge, which
makes the stove dirty.
Please DO NOT burn waste matter. NO coals, No synthetic fuels (e.g. FUTUREX)
5. FOR THE FIRST KINDLING
When used for the first time, the stove must be dried out first. For this purpose, use a little fuel to keep
the fire burning for one hour.
Air slider R + L (in front, above window) slide to the outside. This causes the protective lacquer to dry up,
and a smell may be given off.
Monitor the combustion process carefully. In this regard, carefully wipe off any condensation drops before
the residue gets a chance to burn into the enamel (e.g. the lacquer).
6. PRECAUTIONS
A stove gets hot, especially the covering plate, the casing and the glass panel! In the case of the Saey
Cucina Wood, the entire polished plate heats up.
Install your stove in a safe place in order to prevent playing children from touching it.
Even if all safety regulations are observed, there is still a risk of accidents occurring.
KEEP SMALL CHILDREN AT A SAFE DISTANCE.
7. LIGHTING THE STOVE - THE STANDARD PROCEDURE
When the stove is lit, the air sliders above the door with the glass panel should be moved outwards
(maximum open position), and the air control damper on the right-hand side at the back of the stove
should be completely opened.
Open the door with the glass panel and put crumpled newspapers on the fire grating, with a handful of
splintered wood (thin wood) on top of it. As an alternative, you can use 4 to 5 firelighters as well. After
the stove has been lit, the door with the glass panel must be firmly closed
The door of the ash tray must be opened slightly so that the condensation vapours that are released will
not be deposited on the cold door with the glass panel.
Monitor the combustion process, and close the door of the ash tray after about 10 minutes.
IMPORTANT: The door of the ash tray and the door with the glass panel should now not be opened
again, except for the purpose of topping up.
8. WOOD COMBUSTION
8.1
Topping up
To stoke the fire, the air sliders above the window should be opened to the maximum position (moved
outwards).
The logs should be inserted through the right-hand filler door or the door with the glass panel and placed
on the still sufficiently glowing base, in no more than two layers. Do not overfill.
