Congratulations on your new stove. We
are sure that you will be happy with your
investment, especially if you follow the
advice and instructions we have put

IMPORTANT
1. Make sure there is adequate provision
to sweep the chimney.
2. Make sure there is adequate ventila-
tion to the room.
3. Please note that any extraction fans
operating in the same room as the
wood-burning stove can reduce the
chimney draft – which may have an
adverse effect on stove combustion
properties. In addition, this may cause
smoke to be emitted from the stove
when the firing door is opened.
4. It must not be possible to cover any
air vents.
The floor
It is essential to ensure that the floor
surface can actually bear the weight
of the stove and a top-mounted steel
chimney, if applicable. The stove must
stand on a nonflammable surface such
as a steel floor plate or a brick or tile
floor. The size of the nonflammable sur-
face used to cover the floor area must
match national and local regulations.
The chimney connection
The chimney opening must follow na-
tional and local regulations. However,
the area of the opening should never be
less than 175 cm
2 , which corresponds
to a diameter of 150 mm. If a damper
is fitted in the flue gas pipe, there must
always be at least 20 cm

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Safety clearances
Stoves must always be installed in line
with national and, if applicable, local
regulations. It is important to abide by
local regulations regarding setting up
chimneys and connection to same.
Therefore, always consult your local
chimney sweep before installation, as
you are personally responsible for ensu-
ring that the applicable regulations have
been met.
Distance regulations
A difference applies to installation next
to flammable and non-flammable walls.
If the wall is made of non-flammable
material the stove can, in principle, be
placed flush against it. However, we re-
commend leaving a gap of at least 5 cm
to facilitate cleaning behind the stove.
The minimum distances to flammable
material are stated on the boiler plate
and are listed in the table on page 6.
Warning
A stove gets hot. (In excess of
90 degrees) Take care to en
sure that children and elderly
or infirm people cannot come
into contact with it. Combustible
materials should not be stored in the
compartment below the ashpan.
