knob is completely on the left, the register is closed, when the knob is completely on the right the register is opened. The ash
drawer has to be emptied regularly, so that ash cannot hinder the intake of primary air for the combustion. Primary air is also
necessary to keep fire live.
During the combustion of wood, the primary air register must be opened only a few, since otherwise the wood burns quickly and
the device can overheat (see chapter NORMAL OPERATION).
2A - SECONDARY air register
On the door of the hearth to the right, there is a secondary air register.
This register must be opened (and therefore shifted to the right), in detail, for the combustion of wood, so that unburned
carbon can be subject to a post-combustion, increasing the yield and assuring the cleaning of the glass (see chapter NORMAL
OPERATION).
The adjustment of the registers necessary to reach the rated calorific yield is the following one:
Hourly consumption ( kg/h )
INSERTO 70L
FLUE
Essential requirements for a correct operation of the device:
• the internal section must be preferably circular;
• be thermally insulated and water-proof and produced with materials suitable to resist to heat, combustion products
and possible condensates;
• not be throttled and show a vertical arrangement with deviations not greater than 45°;
• if already used, it must be clean;
• observe the technical data of the instructions manual;
Should the flues have a square or rectangular section, internal edges must be rounded with a radius not lower than 20 mm. For the
rectangular section, the maximum ratio between the sides must be = 1.5.
A too small section causes a decrease of the draught. It is suggested a minimum height of 4 m.
The following features are FORBIDDEN and therefore they endanger the good operation of the device: asbestos cement, galvanized
steel, rough and porous internal surfaces. In
The minimum section must be 4 dm
dm
(for example 25 x 25 cm) for devices with diameter greater than 200 mm.

The draught created by the flue must be sufficient, but not excessive.
A too big flue section can feature a too big volume to be heated and consequently cause difficulties in the operation of the device; to
avoid this, tube the flue along its whole height. A too small section causes a decrease of the draught.
ATTENTION: as far as concern the realisation of the flue connection and flammable materials please follow the requirements
provided by UNI 10683 standard. The flue must be properly spaced from any flammable materials or fuels through a proper
insulation or an air cavity.
It is FORBIDDEN to let plant piping or air feeding channels pass in the same flue. Moreover, it is forbidden to create
movable or fixed openings on the same for the connection of further other devices
CHIMNEY CAP
The draught of the flue depends also on the suitability of the chimney cap.
Therefore, if it is handicraft constructed, the output section must be more than twice as big as the internal section of the flue.
Should it be necessary to exceed the ridge of the roof, the chimney cap must assure the discharge also in case of windy weather
(Picture 5 - Picture
6).
The chimney cap must meet the following requirements:
• have internal section equivalent to that of the stack.
• have a useful output section twice as big as the flue internal one.
• be manufactured in such a way as to prevent the penetration of rain, snow, and any other foreign body in the flue.
• be easily checkable, for any possible maintenance and cleaning operation
CONNECTION TO THE FLUE
The connection to the stack must be performed with stiff pipes in steel comply with all current Standards and Regulations and to those
envisioned by the Law.
It is FORBIDDEN to use metallic pipes or pipes in asbestos cement since they jeopardize the safety of the fitting itself,
considering that they are subject to tears or breaks resulting in leaks of smoke.
The exhaust pipe must be air-tight fastened to the stack and can have a maximum inclination of 45°; this to avoid excessive deposits
of condensate produced in the initial start-up phases and/or the excessive gripping of soot and moreover it avoids the slowing down
of the smokes at output.
The failed tightness of the connection can cause the malfunction of the device.
