9. Heating at Low Thermal Output
(during Transitional Seasons)
You can vary the thermal output of your Luno by ad-
justing the quantity of fuel used.
NOTE!
Do not attempt to slow down the com-
bustion by reducing the air supply. When
heating with wood, this can result in an
incomplete burning process and pose the
risk of an explosive like combustion of the
accumulated wood gases (deflagration).
During the transition seasons (spring/au-
tumn), outdoor temperatures in excess of
16° can cause disruptions to the airflow
in the chimney. If at this temperature a
draught cannot be created by burning a
piece of paper or a small piece of wood (a
pilot fire), no fire should be lit.
10. Emptying the Ash Drawer
As a safety precaution, please make sure that you
only dispose of ashes once they are cold. While
the ash collects during the fire, the lid (fig. 3/1) is
located under the ash drawer (fig. 3/2).
The ash drawer contains the mineral components of
the wood (approx. 1%) as combustion residues.
Remove both the ash drawer and the lid located
underneath it. Make sure the ash does not pile
up all the way to the bottom of the fire box. Slide
the lid onto the ash drawer so that it is closed; this
prevents ashes from flying around, which in turn
means your home stays clean (fig. 4).
