The platform must stick out 20 cm(8”) sideways and 46 cm(18”) on the front side over the loading
door.
d) No flammable components must be present above the product.
The chimney stove must operate exclusively with the ash drawer inserted. The solid residue of the
combustion (ashes) must be collected in a hermetic container, resistant to fire. The stove must never
be ignited when there is gas or steam emissions (e.g. glue for linoleum, gasoline, etc.). Never
deposit flammable materials near the stove. During the combustion there will be a spread of thermal
energy which warms up the surfaces, the door, the fireplace glass, the handles and knobs, the smoke
pipe and the front side of the stove. Please avoid the contact of these parts without gloves or the
relevant tools.
Warn children of the danger and keep them away during the operation of the stove.
The use of a wrong or wet fuel causes the formation of creosote deposits in the flue and will fuel a
chimney fire.
FIRST-AID MEASURES
Should any fire arise in the stack or in the flue:
a) Close the feeding door and the ash drawer door;
b) Close the controls of combustion air;
c) Extinguish the fire using carbon dioxide fire-fighting means (CO2 dust);
d) Seek immediate intervention of FIRE BRIGADE.
DO NOT EXTINGUISH FIRE USING WATER JETS.
When the fire has been extinguished, let the flue be checked by an expert to find possible cracks
and permeable points.
13. AIR ENTRANCE INTO THE INSTALLATION PLACE DURING COMBUSTION
As the stoves take their combustion air from the installation place, it is essential that a sufficient
quantity of air is introduced in the installation room itself.
In case of hermetic doors and windows (for example houses built according to the energy saving
criteria) it is possible that the air entrance is not guaranteed, compromising the draught, the welfare
and the security of the people. It is necessary to guarantee a further air entrance through an external
air intake which is to be positioned nearby appliance or through air connection towards outside or
near the ventilated room.
The entrance of air for combustion into the installation place must not be closed during the
operation of the stove. It is absolutely necessary that in the environment in which the stove operates
there is sufficient air for combustion, i.e. up to 20 m3/h.
An extraction hood (aspirator) installed in the same room or in a room nearby, causes depression
with output of combusted gases (smoke, smell). As consequence it is necessary to ensure more flow
of fresh air.
The depression in an extraction hood can inhale smoke which can have detrimental
consequences to people.
