When firing the stove for the first time, do not place any objects on the stove and do not touch the
painted parts to avoid possible damage to the unset coat of the paint.
Suitable fuel
The stove has been designed to burn only wood, i.e. the fuel with low ash content, such as beech,
hornbeam, birch and similar wood.
Use only well-seasoned dry wood with a humidity level not exceeding 20%, to reduce the likelihood
of greasy soot (creosote) buildup, 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. (Figure 4.)
Do not burn household waste, especially not any plastic materials. Many waste materials contain
substances that are harmful to the stove, the chimney and the environment. Burning of such waste
materials is prohibited by law.
Also, never burn chipboard waste, because chipboard contains glues which may cause
overheating of the stove.
Recommended single fuel loads:
Logs (~33cm long)
Excessive loads may cause the staining of the door glass.
Firing and regular operation
To start the fire, put a small amount of crumpled newspaper in the firebox. Over the paper, place dry
kindling wood and then 2-3 small logs.
Set the air supply control on the door to fully open position. When firing the stove, it is
recommendable to leave the firebox door ajar for 5-10 minutes to avoid steaming/staining of the
glass. Never leave the stove unattended until bright active fire has developed.
Close the door when the fire has blazed up. Avoid excessive loads at a time. When reloading, make
sure that there is a sufficient distance between the fuel and the glass.
During normal operation, the door should be closed, except when refuelling.
To prevent smoke from leaking through the door into the room, do not open the door and do not
refuel the stove while the flame is high.
If you have a damper installed in the flue, keep it fully open until the fire has blazed up.
The stove is designed to keep the door glass clean. The glass will stain only in case of poor
combustion. Possible causes of poor combustion include:
- inadequate chimney design or maintenance condition
- reduced air supply (i.e. air supply control on the door closed)
- inadequate fuel quality or wet fuel
- excessive fuel loading
Glass will stain if the fuel is too close to the glass, or touching it.
WARNING! Do not use alcohol and petrol or for ignition or re-ignition .
Never keep flammable liquids or objects in the vicinity of the stove! Bear in mind that certain parts of
the stove are hot and the stove shall be operated only by adults. Make sure that children are never
left unattended in the vicinity of the stove. USE PROTECTIVE GLOVE!
