Firing
During the start of the first fire, provide sufficient ventilation in the room because the protective
paint coating and remains of fats are being burned.
Prior to starting a fire, open the combustion chamber gate and verify that the grate is clean.To
start a fire, use slim splinters of soft wood placed on sheets of paper. Put larger pieces of wood on
the splinters. Open the ignition flap and chimney flaps (Fig. 2).
Start a fire in the fuel and close the combustion chamber gate. Add more wood after the supply
has burned. After a bed of hot material has been created, other fuel may be added. Bear in mind
that adding too much fuel too early may have a detrimental effect on the incineration process.
Supply additional fuel manually or with a suitable shovel.
Full combustion can be visually easily checked: no heavy smoke can be seen rising from the
chimney (except the time immediately after stoking up).
The output of the appliance is adjusted by the regulator; it also depends on the frequency of the
grating. Clean the grate with the fire hook occasionally. If the appliance releases smoke during the
addition of fuel, close the air inlet port. The entire combustion chamber may be used for
incineration. Make sure the fuel does not fall outside the chamber during addition. In adverse
chimney effect conditions or in bad weather conditions, use small, dry logs of wood.
Long-term Operation
The appliance may be in unattended operation for an extended period of time as follows: after the
base layer of hot material, fill the fuel chamber and turn the primary air regulator by unhinging the
regulator chain from the split pin of the latch. The appliance may be left to operate for more than
12 hours.
Cooking on the Appliance’s Hotplate
During cooking watch out for boiling over. If it happens, remove as much of the spillage
immediately and when finished cooking clean the remainder using a damp towel, detergent and
finally using a dry towel. If the dirt bakes in, it is more difficult to remove later. From time to time
(depending on the frequency of operation) wipe the range down with vegetable oil.
Use pots with a flat bottom for best results.
Note:
KVS Ekodivize strongly recommend that their appliance should be covered by the uninsu-
lated lid only after the appliance ceased its operation.
It can be lowered to cover the hob only when the appliance is not in operation or finishing
its operation (no fuel has been added, the appliance is cooling down and the fire in the
burner is burning down).
