4. Suitable fuels
The SAEY 94 stove makes use of the following fuels:
* WOOD : logs with sticky bark, e.g. cleaved logs with a length of 45
cm.
The wood should be stored for about two years, and should
have a maximum residual humidity level of 20%.
Wet wood does not burn well and produces smoke, resulting
in condensation and a tar discharge, which makes the stove
dirty.
Take care: DO NOT burn waste matter.
TAKE CARE
: No coals
No synthetic fuels (e.g. FUTUREX)
Do not burn waste matter
5. For the first kindling
When used for the first time, the stove must be dried out first. For this
purpose, use a little fuel to keep the fire burning for one hour. Air slider
R + L to the outside (standing “open”).
When the air sliders are open, the glass is ‘washed’ by an air current that
glides over the window. Thus, your window remains clean for a long
time (= air-wash system). Fresh air is also added to the hot fumes via
these openings. This causes the fumes to ignite so that a second
combustion takes place, resulting in a higher output and cleaner fume
emissions (= post-combustion).
This causes the protective lacquer to dry up, and a smell may be given
off.
Monitor the combustion process carefully. In this regards, carefully wipe
off any condensation drops before residue gets a chance to burn into
the enamel (e.g. the lacquer).
