- The baking of the paint;
- The adjustment of the baffles (guillotine baffles);
- Checking that the appliance works properly.
(!) Ventilate the room to eliminate paint smells, and do not touch the stove.
Before lighting the first fire:
- Remove dust from visible painted surfaces;
- Pre-adjust the baffles according to the supposed chimney draught.
The adjustment of the "guillotine baffles" is essential. They allow modifying the cross-section of
the combustion gas passage to be able to adapt (adjust) the appliance to the chimney draught.
These two baffles must be set identically on the left and on the right.
To modify the adjustment, unscrew the two M5 screws (8mm socket), position the baffle plate
in one of the 6 lugs and then tighten the screws. When the baffle is in the lower position, it
reduces the passage cross section and limits the smoke flow. These guillotine baffles will
therefore be set in the lower position in cases of high-draught chimneys (high chimneys). And
conversely, the guillotine baffles will be lifted when the draught of the chimney is weak.
Opening the baffle (lifting up) leads to:
- (-) a loss of yield;
- (+) a reduced risk of backflow;
- (+) improved smoke extraction from the glass pane.
Closing the baffle (lowering) leads to:
- (+) an increased yield;
- (-) an increased risk of backflow;
- (-) reduced smoke extraction from the glass pane.
It is therefore a question of finding the right compromise.
Note the ideal position for your chimney so that it can be correctly positioned again after
sweeping.
During the first fire, the door seal is put in place.
It may therefore be needed to adjust the door tightness after this first fire.
