Do not put the cooker in direct vicinity of wooden elements, cooling devices, plastic
parts of the furniture and other combustible materials, since it creates high working
temperature which is distributed at the exterior of the cooker (at the combustion of
fuel). The least distance between cooker and surrounding elements is 50 cm, and
combustible materials 80 cm.
If surface on which cooker is to be positioned is made of easily combustible material
(wood, warm floor, laminated floor...) it is necessary to install metal sheet protection -
lateral width 10 cm, in front 50 cm.
Due to its weight, it is necessary to install cooker on the floor with appropriate
carrying capacity. If latter does not fulfill requirements, please take proper measures
to achieve it (e.g. distribution of weight).
Cooker is to be connected with chimney through flue pipes and via connection on the
back side of cooker, in order to provide adequate sealing and smoke flow from
cooker to the chimney. Flue pipe may not be installed too deeply into the chimney to
avoid reduction of cross-section of the surface thus impairing draft in chimney. Do
not use reducers which would reduce cross-section of the smoke exhaust pipe (flue
pipe).
Cooker requires intake of fresh air into the room in which it is installed, whereat
surface of the opening for intake of fresh air may not be smaller then 0,4 dm². Device
for intake of fresh air is to be mounted outside collective room for ventilation which
must be secured with doors and grid.
Ventilators which work in the same room in which cooker is mounted may create
disturbances with the cooker operation. Also, all devices or air conditioning which
make sub-pressure in the room in which cooker is installed must be adjusted not to
make decompression which disables normal operation of the cooker.
Prior to installation of the cooker, check draft in the chimney since it is one of the key
factors of proper operation. Draft depends on accuracy of the chimney and
meteorological conditions. One of the simplest aspects for checking of the draft in
the chimney is using candle flame, as illustrated in the figure 2. Candle flame is to be
offered to connection opening of the chimney and, if it sways towards opening, draft
is satisfactory (fig. 2b). Weak swaying of the flame is indicator of weak draft (fig. 2a).
