First Lighting; Fuel Type - EdilKamin DELUXE Installation, Usage Et Maintenance

NOTE on the fuel: wood
For a correct operation of the stove, it is necessary to burn
dry natural wood, with a humidity of maximum 20%.
Warning: while in operation, some parts of the stove reach
very high temperatures; therefore, we recommend keeping
a good eye on children.
The stove has been designed to work with the door closed
only. Heat is propagated by radiation and convection.
Always use the provided glove to open the door and to
make the adjustments.

FIRST LIGHTING

Any unpleasant odour or smoke could be caused by mate-
rials used during construction evaporating or drying. This
tends to die down after a few days.
Proceed as follows: put some paper with a small quantity
of well-seasoned thin wood into the firebox, in order to
live up the flame as much as possible, to make the flame
as fierce as possible, opening the primary and secondary
air dampers as much as possible (see illustration 1-2 on
Pag. 9) and HALF-CLOSE the door.
- As soon as the flames have died down and have formed
a hard bed of embers, load a normal amount of wood into
the firebox (do not exceed the maximum amount specified
in the table on page 10).
- At this point close the door completely and adjust the
combustion using the primary and secondary air dampers.
- Make sure the firebox door is always perfectly closed
during operation.
NOTE:
do not use alcohol, petrol, kerosene or other liquid fuels
to light the fire. Keep liquid fuels away from the fire.
Do not use firelighters made from petroleum or chemical
substances: they may cause serious damage to the firebox
walls. Use eco-friendly firelighters only.
Overloading (in excess of 2.5 kg/h - see table containing
technical data) or excessively lively flames may damage
the firebox compartment.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

FUEL TYPE

This stove is preferably fed with well-seasoned
beech/birch wood Each type of wood has different charac-
teristics that also affect combustion efficiency. The decla-
red nominal kW yield of the stove is obtained by burning
the correct amount of wood, taking care not to overload the
combustion chamber.
Fuel and heating power
Combustion has been optimised from a technical point of
view both with regards to the design of the hearth and its
air supply as well as in terms of emissions.
Please support our commitment to a clean environment by
observing the directions listed below regarding the use of
combustible materials that do not contain and do not pro-
duce harmful substances.
As far as fuel, use only natural and seasoned wood or
wood briquettes. Wet or fresh cut wood or wood stored
improperly present a high water content and therefore do
not burn properly, create smoke and produce little heat.
Only use firewood which has been seasoned for a mini-
mum of year two years in a ventilated and dry environ-
ment. In this case, water content will be below 20% of the
weight. This way you will save in terms of combustible
material, as the seasoned wood has a much higher calori-
fic value.
Never use liquid fuels such as gasoline, alcohol or similar.
Do not burn waste.
Note: Seasoned wood has a calorific value of approxima-
tely 4 kWh/kg, while fresh cut wood has a calorific value
of only 2 kWh/kg. Therefore, to achieve the same calorific
value you would have to use double the fuel.

ATTENTION: If the hearth is fuelled by an excessive
amount of fuel or an improper fuel, the danger of overhea-
ting can occur with consequent damage to the product.
