07. INSTALLATION
HANDLING AND UNPACKING
When transporting do not position the product horizontally. Unloading of the product must be performed using lifting means that are suitable and that have
characteristics that are consistent with the weight of the stove. The operator must make sure that during offloading and lifting of the stove there are no persons or
objects nearby. When unpacking, avoid damaging the product with cutters or blunt tools. Keep the packaging out of the reach of children. Remove the screws of
the brackets holding the product to the pallet and put it in position taking care to avoid anything that may block installation or damage the product. Use a lifter or
pallet truck to separate the apparatus from the transport pallet using the appropriate opening on its base.
Pay attention to the balance of the product given its size and weight. Turn the fixing brackets to the pallet under the product. They do not need to be removed.
PLACE OF INSTALLATION
Observe the safety distances described above.
CAUTION: THE PRODUCT WEIGHT IS 450 kg. Bear in mind this data should it be necessary to install the stove in attics
or on second floors.
In compliance with current regulations for installation, the pellet stove must be placed in a ventilated area where sufficient air flows to ensure correct combustion
and therefore efficient operation. The room must have a volume of no less than 100 m³ and, in order to ensure good combustion.
(40 m³/h of air) a “combustion air intake” is required, which must reach an external wall or a wall of an adjacent room with external ventilation, provided they are
equipped with an outside air intake and are not bedrooms or bathrooms or, where there is a fire hazard such as sheds, garages, storerooms for combustible
materials, etc. These air intakes must be created in such a way that they cannot be obstructed neither from the inside nor from the outside and must be protected
with grilles, wire mesh or suitable guards, provided that they do not reduce the minimum cross section.
When in operation, pellet stoves can create negative pressures in the rooms where they are installed. Other naked flame equipment must, therefore, not be present
in the same room (except only type C (watertight) boilers, unless they have their own air supply).
They must not be positioned close to curtains, armchairs, furniture or to other flammable materials.
They must not be installed in explosive or potentially explosive environments which may become explosive due to the presence of machinery, materials or dust
that can cause greenhouse gas emissions or which can easily ignite with sparks. Before starting to install the pellet stove, bear in mind that all the finishes or any
beams in flammable material must be positioned at a safe distance and outside the area of irradiation of the product itself. Also bear in mind that to avoid
compromising correct operation of the appliance it is essential to create a recirculation of air inside its housing, which prevents overheating. This is possible by
observing minimum distances and by creating ventilation holes.
07.1 PROCEDURE FOR CORRECT PRODUCT INSTALLATION
Once the product has been positioned, follow the instructions below:
•
Remove the upper Top and the relative deflectors found below. Also remove the galvanised covers on your left.
•
Loosen all the hexagonal screws that keep the flue gas closed. Remove the vermiculite pieces found below.
•
Remove the 3 caps that you find in the fume fan. They are used to fill the tank with sand. (FIG.1).
•
Open a small portion of the sandbag by cutting the corner using a pair of scissors (FIG.2).
