Pile wood logs loosely on the bottom grate. Put a fire lighter between
the logs and light it on. To start the fire, use small wood; large wood logs
degas and ignite badly in a cold fireplace.
Never use products as gasoline, white spirits or the like
to start a fire!
Close the fire door and observe the flame development during the
first minutes. If the fire goes out, open the door slowly and put a new
fire lighter between the wood logs and light it on. Check the chimney
draught.
After approximately 10 minutes, bring the push rod in its
“nominal heat
output”
position.
When the wood has burned down (glow phase) new wood can be
added. Bring the push rod in its
“Start-up”
position for about 5 minutes.
Then bring it back in its “nominal heat output” position.
If no more wood has to be added, bring the push rod in its
“closed” position at the end of the combustion, this is when no flames
are to be seen any more.
ATTENTION: Never put the air control push rod in the
“closed” position during the starting up phase or during the
nominal heat output phase (lack of air). In case of a sud-
den oxygen admission (for example when one opens the fire
door) gases present in the fire chamber can react with the
incoming oxygen (deflagration).
The Iron Dog draws its combustion air from the installation area. Con-
sider the combustion air need in case of simultaneous use of other fire
places in the room.
