START-UP AND FUEL SUPPLY
To achieve optimal combustion the wood should be arranged correctly, in
the size recommended by Jolly-Mec, create the temperature suitable for
combustion and make sure there is the right amount of air to ensure ecological
functioning and excellent output by the fireplace.
Before lighting the pellet fireplace, a few preliminary operations are necessary:
1.
Clean the fire bed and empty the ash pan. It is recommended to always leave a
small amount of ash on the fire bed.
2.
With the fireplace cold, or very low fume temperature, check that the
shutter is open (pos. llll); if this is not the case, open it.
3. Move the cast iron grate (
A
) over the pellet burner
4. Open the ash drawer (B) as far as the block .
5.
Check that the controller is set to wood mode otherwise the fireplace will light in
pellet mode;
6. Press the “start” button;
7.
Load the wood (C) and switch the fire on following the instructions below:
- position a row of wood logs in the centre of the combustion chamber.
- position a piece of firelighter on the wood and switch it on.
-
Never use alcohol, petrol, oil or other easily inflammable liquids.
8. Close the door.
When the wood logs are almost burnt out, reload the fireplace again with a
small amount of wood, leaving the ash pan open again
When the wood has burnt out and there are still some charcoal, add the
maximum quantity of wood, or the amount required.
The fireplace’s capacity and the duration of the fuel are regulated by the
quantity of combustion air.

COMBUSTION
For this type of functioning, except when loading, the fireplace door must
always be closed to ensure correct combustion, and to prevent combustion
fumes from escaping into the room.
Disassembly or tampering with the
closure, unauthorised by Jolly-mec, will cause invalidation of the
warranty.
If you open the fireplace door while it is functioning, to load wood or any
other operation, it is compulsory to use protective gloves and perform such
operations when there are only cinders in the fireplace and no actual flames.
Never open the door quickly, as this may cause fumes to escape.
Open the door slowly and just a little, before opening it completely.
Only add wood when there are cinders otherwise there could be a risk of
combustion products escaping.
Never use larger quantities of wood than those recommended:
load 2 or a
maximum of 3 blocks of wood (D).
To prevent less than optimal combustion, the ashes must be removed very
carefully using the designated tool, so that the grid does not get clogged and
the air supply can flow freely.

END OF COMBUSTION
(This applies even when the system is switched off)
This phase is reached when the wood has burnt out and there is no combu-
stion with or without flames.

WOOD FUNCTIONING
•
MAXIMUM FUEL QUANTITIES
Wood:
3 blocks of approx. 1 kg each, max length 35 cm and width approx. 6 cm per side (use of pieces of chopped wood is recommended)
Pressed wood logs (in pieces):
3 pieces of approx. 1 kg each, max. length 35 cm.
The stove output performance also depends on the flue draught.
NEVER LIGHT THE FIREPLACE IN WOOD MODE WITHOUT CONNECTING IT TO THE MAINS.
