CB Technology (Clean Burning)

Your wood-burning stove is fitted with CB technology. To ensure 
optimum burning of the gases released by the burning process, air 
is guided by a specially developed system. Pre-heated air is fed into 
the combustion chamber through the small holes below the smoke 
deflector plate. The airflow is driven by the combustion speed, and 
cannot be regulated.

Primary air

The primary air regulation mechanism is used for lighting the fire, or 
to boost the burning process when you put wood on. The primary air 
vent can be 25-50% open if you use hard wood fuel such as oak and 
beech. You can close the primary air vent if you use soft wood such 
as birch or pine for fuel.

Secondary air

Secondary air is pre-heated and fed directly to the fire. At the same 
time, the secondary airflow cleans the glass pane to avoid soot build-
up. If you over-restrict the secondary airflow, soot can build up on the 
glass pane. The secondary airflow determines the heat output from 
your wood stove.

Smoke deflector plates

The smoke deflector plates are located in the upper part of the com-
bustion chamber. The plates hold back smoke, making sure it stays 
inside the combustion chamber for a longer time before escaping 
through the chimney. This reduces the smoke gas temperature as 
the gases have more time to dissipate heat to the wood stove. The 
smoke deflector platens must be removed for sweeping; see „Wood-
burning stove maintenance“. Note that the smoke deflector platens 
are made of porous, ceramic material, and can break. Exercise care 
when working. The smoke deflector plates are subject to wear and 
tear, and are not covered by the warranty.

Ash pan

Open the glass door to access the ash drawer which is located below 
the combustion chamber.
Keep the ash drawer closed at all times when the wood stove is lit.

Handle for riddling grate

Your wood stove is fitted with a riddling grate which empties the ash 
from the combustion chamber into the ash drawer when activated.
The riddling grate must be in semi-open position while the wood-
burning stove is lit.
