FUEL AND FUEL qUANTITY MAINTENANCE
AND CLEANING
The ANIMO
®
billet firewood
stove is designed for the
burning of dry billet wood.
You can also heat with fuels
such as wood briquettes.
The right wood fuel provides
long-lasting warmth
and cosiness depending
on the moisture content
and the fuel quantity.
Alle Wartungs- und
Reinigungsarbeiten
sind ausschließlich bei
vollständig ausgekühltem
Ofen vorzunehmen.
FUEL AND FUEL qUANTITY:
Different types of wood have different calorific va-
lues. Deciduous wood is very well suited as a fuel,
because it burns with a steady flame and a long
sustained glow. Conifer softwoods burn faster and
have a tendency to produce sparks.
The burning of waste materials of all kinds
(plastics, textiles, particle board, coal etc.) will
damage to stove and the chimney and is also
prohibited under law.
IMPORTANT POINTS FOR CLEAN COMBUSTION:
• Dry, untreated firewood
• 14-18 % relative wood moisture
• From 2-3 year, dry and well-ventilated storage
• The correct firewood quantity and dimen-
sions (zuviel bewirkt Überheizen und schlechte
Rauchgaswerte, zu wenig oder zu große Scheite
bewirkt, dass die optimale Betriebstemperatur
nicht erreicht wird)
• 1.6 kg (2 wooden logs 25 cm in length or 2 wood
briquettes) per fuel addition to the fire.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING:
The ANIMO
®
billet firewood stove was designed for
minimal maintenance and for a very long service
life. Some cleaning activities and checking the seals
will be necessary, however, from time to time. The
periods between inspection intervals will depend
on the quality of firewood used and also on the fre-
quency of use.
CLEANING THE DOOR GLASS:
• Use a special glass cleaner!
• No caustic acids or solvents
• Otherwise there is a risk of damaging the glass
surface or the printing
• Very sooty glass can result from moist firewood.
CLEANING THE STOVE SURFACES:
• Clean extremely heat resistant stove surfaces
with a (damp) cloth only!
• Use original enamels only to repair any damage
• Never clean the enamel before the first
heating!
CLEANING THE CONVECTION OPENINGS:
• Vacuum clean dust deposits regularly
Clean the stove thoroughly before the start of
a new heating season.
CLEANING THE FLUE GAS PIPES:
• 1 x annually
• To do this, remove the stovepipe
• Brush/vacuum clean soot and dust deposits in
the stove and the stovepipe
Check the seals on the firebox door and the ash
pan before the start of the heating period and
replace any seals that are damaged or worn!
