Do not for any reason attempt to increase the firing of your heater by altering the air
control adjustment range outlined in these directions.
Warning: Fireplace stoves must never be left unattended with the door open.
If the door is left partly open, gas and flame may be drawn out of the fireplace stove open-
ing, creating risks from both fire and smoke. We recommend that you fit a smoke detec-
tor in the room where the stove is installed.
DO NOT OVERFIRE THIS HEATER. Overfiring may cause a house fire, or can result in per-
manent damage to the stove. If any part of the stove glows, you are overfiring.
The maximum recommended weight of wood fuel per load is 6lbs (5 split logs).
Under normal firing, the average flue temperature in the stove pipe, measured 20 cm above
the stove, is approx. 300° C (550°F). The maximum flue temperature in the stove pipe must
not exceed 450° C (750°F). If the flue temperature exceeds 450°C (750°F), it is considered
as over firing and may cause premature wear and tear of the stove.
To help gauge the correct running temperature of your stove, we recommend you use the Morsø
Flue Gas Thermometer (part # 62901200). The Flue Gas Thermometer magnetically attaches onto
the stove pipe approx 20 cm (8”) above the stove’s top plate and measures the surface temperature
of the stove pipe. Please see your authorized Morsø Dealer for availability.
Draft conditions
If smoke or fumes come out of your stove when lightning up and reloading, or if the fire simply
will not respond, a poor draft is almost certainly to blame. (In a very few cases, there may be
insufficient fresh air getting into the room - see installation advice above). Take advice from
your stove supplier on how best to upgrade your flue system to improve draft.
Rules of woodburning
If you want less heat, put fewer logs on the stove and reduce the amount of air. It is still impor-
tant to maintain a good layer of embers.
Less heat - less wood - less air
Greater heat - more wood - more air
Soot deposits will settle on the glass if the stove is run too slowly or if your wood is not well
seasoned.
We would strongly recommend that you do not leave your stove alit at night. It harms the
environment, and constitutes very poor use of the wood, as the gases in the wood do not
ignite at the low temperature, but settle as soot (unburned gases) in the chimney and stove
instead.
Carbon monoxide detectors
It is required in some jurisdictions to install smoke and carbon monoxide detectors where
heaters are installed. Install at least one smoke detector on each floor of your home
to ensure your safety. It should be located away from the wood appliance and close to
the sleeping areas. Locating a smoke detector too close to a wood appliance can cause the
smoke detector alarm to sound if a puff of smoke is emitted while the wood appliance door
is open during reloading. Follow the smoke detector manufacturers placement, installation,
and maintenance instructions
3.0 Maintenance
When perfoming maintenance on your stove, always protect yourself, using safety gog-
gles and gloves.
3.1 Exterior Maintenance
The stove surface is painted with heat-resistant Senotherm paint. It is best kept clean by
vacuuming with a soft brush attachment or by wiping with a lint-free cloth.
Over a period of time, the painted surface may become slightly grey. A can of Morsø touch-up
spray paint should be available from your stove supplier. This can be applied - in accordance with
the instructions - in just a few minutes. When first firing after touching up, the stove will give off
a slight smell as the paint cures. Make sure to ventilate the room well during this phase.
3.2 Internal maintenance
Glass
If the stove is generally run at the correct temperatures, there should be little or no dirt on
the glass. If dirt does settle during lighting, most will burn off as temperatures increase.For
heavier deposits that will not burn off, use morsø glass cleaner, applied when the glass is
cold, in accordance with the instructions. Never use abrasive cleaners on the glass surface.
Reasons for dirty glass
- Fuel too wet
- Logs too large or not split
- Combustion temperatures too low
Do not clean the glass while hot
Replace broken glass immediately.
Do not operate your stove if the glass in the door is damaged.
If you need to replace the glass, it should be replaced with the high temperature ceramic
class supplied by Morsø, contact your Morsø dealer.
Installing the glass
Never install the glass when the stove is in function.
Ceramic glass replacement
Ceramic glass cannot be recycled because it has a
higher melting point that ordinary glass. If ceramic
glass is mixed with ordinary glass, the raw mate-
rial is spoiled, and the reclaiming process may be
halted. Take care that the ovenproof glass does not
end up among ordinary recycled waste. That will
be a great benefit to the environment.
Note: Should be handed in to a recycling sta-
tion as ceramic glass.
