3. Instructions for user
The manufacturer will not be responsible for damages
on parts of the appliance due to the use of prohibited
fuel or due to an alteration of the appliance or its
installation.
3.1. Fuel
•
Recommended fuel
:
Wood
with the grate provided
Use hard wood logs, which have been cut for at least
two years and stored, under shelter.
Hardwood has a higher calorific value per cu metre
(oak, ash, maple, birch, elm, beech, etc.).
Large logs must be split and cut to a usable length,
before being stored in a sheltered and ventilated place.
Recommended fuel with the coal grate 308711
Smokeless fuels, including coolite nuts, phurnacite,
ancit and extracite.
•
Not recommended as fuel
:
“green wood”. Green or damp wood reduces stove
efficiency and soils the glass, the internal walls and the
flue (soot, tar, etc.).
“used timbers”. Burning treated wood (railway sleepers,
telegraph poles, offcuts of plywood or chip board,
pallets, etc.) quickly clogs the flue ways (soot, tar, etc.),
pollutes the environment (pollution and smell, etc.) and
cause the fire to burn too quickly and overheat.
“Green wood” and “recovered wood” can eventually
cause a chimney fire.
•
Prohibited fuel
:
Any form of bituminous coal or petroleum based coke.

-
Light the newspaper or firelighters using a long taper
and close the door (# A).
-
When the fire is burning fiercely, add further logs of a
diameter up to 10 cms.
-
When the stove body is very hot, close the lower spin
wheel (# C2).
