The stovepipe must not protrude into the cross section of the chimney.
Good heating performance will be achieved if the stove is connected to a properly designed and
maintained chimney, ensuring good draught i.e. negative pressure of 10-20 Pa.
Only one stove (one unit) shall be connected to the chimney.
The stove shall be installed in full compliance with applicable European, national as well as local
regulations.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Fuel
The stoves have been designed to burn wood.
Use only well-seasoned dry wood to reduce the likelihood of greasy soot (creosote) build-up, which may
cause clogging of the chimney.
In the event of the use of wood briquettes keep in mind that having a higher calorific value and that the
device can be damaged by overheating. (Image 4.)
Do not burn household waste, especially not any plastic material. Many waste materials contain
substances that are harmful to the stove, the chimney and the environment.
Also, never burn chipboard waste, because chipboard contains glues which may cause overheating of
the stove.

Prior to reloading, make sure to riddle the riddling grate to let sufficient air into the firebox which is
essential for good combustion.
First firing
Start the fire with a small amount of crumpled newspaper and well seasoned dry kindling to achieve a
moderate, evenly burning fire.
Read the instructions concerning the air supply controls on your stove.
Some parts of the stove are painted with a heat resistant paint. With the first firing, this paint gradually
sets and some fumes of a characteristic odour may be given off in the process.
Therefore ventilate the room during this phase.
WARNING! Do not use alcohol and petrol for ignition or re-ignition.
Firing and regular operation
Crumple a small amount of newspaper and place it in the fire box. Over the paper place dry kindling
wood and then 2-3 small logs. Make sure that primary and secondary air supply controls
are fully open and let the fire blaze-up.
When firing the stoves, it is recommendable to leave the firebox door ajar for 2-4 min in order to avoid
steaming / staining of the glass.
Never leave the stove unattended until a bright active fire has developed. During the normal operation,
the firebox and the ash tray doors must be closed.
If you have a damper installed in your fluepipe, it should be kept fully open at the beginning.
The desired output is set by means of the primary air flow controls.
The stoves are structurally designed in the manner that the glass on the firebox door is always kept
clean. The glass may become stained with soot only in case of poor combustion, which might be due to
the following causes: chimney of inadequate design or in poor maintenance
