3 – GENERAL DESCRIPTION
3.1 OPERATING TECHNOLOGY
Your appliance has been built to fully satisfy all your heating and practical requirements. Top-grade components and functions
managed with microprocessor technology guarantee high reliability and optimal performance.
3.2 THE PELLET
The appliance is fuelled by pellets, that is, cylinders of compressed sawdust; it his allows you to fully enjoy the heat of the flame
without having to manually stoke the combustion.
The dimensions of the pellets are ø 6 and length from 10 to 20 mm. They have a max moisture content of 8%; a calorific value of
4000/4500 Kcal/kg and density of 620-630 kg/m³, less than 0.7% ash. The pellet must be approved according to UNI EN 14961-2 A1
A2.
It is strictly forbidden to use any pellet type other than that specified above. The use of fuel that does not comply with the
above specifications not only immediately invalidates the warranty for the appliance but can also create dangerous
situations. Do not use the appliance as an incinerator, at the risk of voiding the warranty.
3.3 THE FEEDBOX
The feedbox is situated in the top part of the appliance. The
load capacity specified in the technical data can vary
according to the specific weight of the pellets.
Take special care when loading the pellet tank as the screw
feeder located at the bottom of the hopper is in motion. Take
care when topping up with fuel as the loading area can get
very hot.
Only pellets that comply with the specifications listed above
must be fed into the tank; Never insert foreign objects into
the tank.
CAUTION: it is normal to find some pellets remaining in the
tank even if the stove shuts off because the pellets have run
out.
Attention: when loading the pellets into the tank take care
not to drop any in the inner parts of the appliance, as this
could cause live flames inside the appliance.
The manufacturer recommends emptying the tank and vacuuming the screw feeder zone once a month and during the
summer period; this operation must only be carried out when the stove is cold and with the electrical power supply
disconnected. The appliance is designed to run on pellet. Use of other combustible materials in the tank and/or
combustion chamber is strictly prohibited.
Only pellets complying with the above specifications are to be loaded into the tank; in no case whatsoever must foreign
substances or objects be introduced into the tank, the brazier or any part of the generator.
