IGNITION AND LIGHTING
Before the first firing, wipe all painted surfaces with clean and dry cloth, in order to avoid
burning impurity on the oven and creation of unpleasant smells.
Start the fire in the stove by following order:
• open the fire door,
• place the fluel into the fire place (chopped wood to non greasy wrinkled paper)
• light a fire
• leave open primary air regulator until the flame gets stable and after
having stabilized the flame, control burning intensity with drafts regulator (Fig. 1, pos. 2)
• secondary air regulator leave opened until the flame gets stable and after
having stabilized the flame, control burning intensity with regulator (Fig. 1, poz.3)
• close the firebox door,
• after creating a basic flame insert larger pieces of wood or briquettes in the firebox, and
close the firebox door. If you use briquettes as a fuel, you must wait that all biquettes are
lit and then reduce the draft in half.
• when adding fuel, (Fig. 1, pos. 1) open the fire door step by step
wait for 4-5 seconds, and then slowly open it wide.
Do not open the door suddenly,
when there’s a strong flame in the combustion chamber, it
may come to it’s spreaading into the room.
Regulating the draft in the stow, you can regulate temperature, power and the combustion of
fuel, and this is done by running draft regulator on the firebox door (Fig. 1, pos. 2).
Combining primary air through the regulator on the firebox door and secondary air over the
leverage above the firebox door (Fig. 1, pos. 3) you get desired combustion .
Stove contains auxiliary tools in order to facilitate its maintenance.
Stove has a lever for shaking grid, located in the front of the stove, by slow back and front
movements while the stove is running, which allows the passage of primary air.
Recommended fuels are briquettes and wood.
You must not use gasoline and similar fuels, because by using liquid fuels you crate
conditions for damaging the stove and to provoce an explosion.
