CONNECTION AND MAINTENANCE OF VENTILATION
The control unit and the plant must be installed and connected by authorized personnel according to the
standards in force. (see Chapter.1).
ATTENTION: the feeding cable must not be in contact with hot
parts.
I Our fireplaces are equipped with appropriate galvanized coverings
(OPTIONAL) on which it is possible to install the ventilation kits
(OPTIONAL) suitable to improve the distribution of heat through the
ventilation exclusively in the installation room or in the adjacent
local (see CAP. 6).
The lighting and the adjustment is carried out through the proper
standard supplied control unit that has to be installed far from any
direct heat source. The kit is equipped with a thermostat (TM) that
lets the fans start when the appliance is properly heated, and stops
them when it is partially cold.
CONNECTION:
Connect the power supply cable of the control unit to a bipolar
switch respecting at least a 3 mm distance between the contacts
(power supply 230 V~ 50/60 Hz, it is necessary to provide for the
correct connection to the grounding plant).
For the connection of the OPTIONAL ventilation kit, please see
CHAP.20
WARNING: The COMMAND must be connected to the
mains with a differential line cut-off switch according to
the regulations in force. Correct operation of the
command is assured only for the proper motor for which
it has been manufactured. Improper use relieves the
manufacturer from each responsibility.

ALLOWED / NOT ALLOWED FUELS
Allowed fuels are logs. Use exclusively dry logs (max. content of water 20%). Maximum 3 logs should be loaded. The
pieces of wood should have a length of ca. 20-30 cm and a maximum circumference of 30-35 cm.
Compressed not worked-out wood briquettes must be used carefully to avoid overheating that may damage
the device, since these have a very high calorific value.
The wood used as fuel must have a humidity content lower than the 20% and must be stored in a dry place. Humid
wood tends to burn less easily, since it is necessary a greater quantity of energy to let the existing water evaporate.
Moreover, humid content involves the disadvantage that, when temperature decreases, the water condensates earlier
in the hearth and therefore in the stack causing a remarkable deposit of soot with following possible risk of fire of the
same. Fresh wood contains about 60% of H
It is necessary to place this wood in a dry and ventilated place (for example under a roofing) for at least two years
before using it.
Besides others, it is not possible to burn: carbon, cuttings, waste of bark and panels, humid wood or wood
treated with paints, plastic materials; in this case, the warranty on the device becomes void.
Paper and cardboard must be used only to light the fire. The combustion of waste is forbidden and would even
damage the device.
ATTENTION : the continuous and protracted use of aromatic wood (eucalyptus, myrtle etc.) quickly damages the
cast iron parts (cleavage) of the product.
10. LIGHTING
To light the fire, it is suggested to use small wood pieces together with paper or other traded lighting means.
It is FORBIDDEN to use any liquid substance as for ex. alcohol, gasoline, oil and similar.
When wood starts to burn, it is possible to feed it again by opening slowly the door, in order to avoid leaks of smoke,
and adjust the air for the combustion according to the provisions of CHAP. 11.
Never overload the appliance (see the technical table - max. quantity of fuel that can be loaded / hourly consumption
– (see CHAP. 17).
Too much fuel and too much air for combustion can cause overheating and therefore damage the same.
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:
