Operation 

1. 

After reaching the heating water temperature, adjust the combustion air supply. Output control is made by the choke on the stoking door 
which regulates the air supply over the fuel by means of the draft regulator or adjusting screw of the choker. The draught regulator has to 
be adjusted so as the choker of the stoking door is slightly closed at 3-4 mm at the moment the desired temperature of heating water is 
reached. 

2. 

According to heat needs and burning intensity, it is necessary to refuel during the boiler operation. Hot layer suitable for adding the fuel is 
about 15 cm. Before adding the fuel, make manual cleaning - from below, through a hole in the lower part of the grate, and through the 
stoking door for firewood. Before refuelling, release the orifice of the hole in the bottom part of the lining of the combustion chamber so as 
to allow continuous fuel burning off. Max. fuel filling height is determined by the upper edge of the inclined grate.  

3. 

Before refuelling, it is recommended to open the shorting flap located above the stoking door choker, and after refuelling, close it again. 

4. 

The ash door must be permanently closed during the operation. 

5. 

If necessary, clean the ash-pan (the gloves needed). 

6. 

In case the shut-off valves are installed, the safety valve must be mounted between the boiler and the shut-off valve. 

7. 

We recommend to clean the filter after the heat test and then before the heating season starting. 

 
 

Maintenance 

 
1. 

Check  and  if  necessary  remove  ash from the  ash-pan  because  full pan  prevents  the  proper  distribution  of combustion  air  under  the  fuel 
and  causes  unequal  burning  of the  fuel  on the  grate.  Remove  all  fuel  remnants  in  the  furnace  and in  the  burn-off  hole  before  each  new 
firing.  Because  of  achieving  high  temperatures  during  combustion,  the  lining  of  the  combustion  chamber  is  not  clogged  and  there  is  no 
necessity to dismount it fully. We recommend once every14 days extrusion of its front middle part (see fig. No15 - pos. 7) and clean-up the 
space under the nozzle of tertiary air. 

2. 

The ash must be put into incombustible containers with lids. During the work, it is necessary to use protective equipment and ensure 
personal safety. 

3. 

1x  per  week,  clean  the  boiler  walls  inside  the  furnace,  boiler  smoke  drafts  and  smoke  adapter  with  a  brush  (cooled  down  boiler,  the 
temperature does not exceed 40  °C). For the ash removal from the smoke adapter, use the cleaning cover at the its bottom part. When 
dismantling  the  cleaning  cover,  loosed  the  screw  securing  the  latch  to  avoid  its  damage.  After  cleaning  the  smoke  adapter,  mount  the 
cleaning cover back and pay attention to the tightness of the cleaning cover and the smoke adapter. 

4. 

If using fuels with higher development of gas leading to tar depositing on the walls of the fuel space, remove it by scraping or burning dry 
hard wood (or coke) at the boiler max. operating temperature.  

5. 

After the heating season, clean the space behind the choker of the tertiary air inlet, treat the pivots of the smoke flap, shorting flaps and all 
doors.  

6. 

Cracks caused by tension or slight corrosion on the refractory lining are caused by temperature fluctuations and the temperature over 1000 
°C  in  the  combustion  chamber.  Decisive  for  the  functionality  of  the  device  is  the  dimensional stability  of  the  components.  Cracks  do  not 
affect the functionality and can be considered, similar to the tiled stove, normal. 

7. 

If there  are  impurities  on  the cover  parts  and  control  elements,  it is  best  to  remove  them  with  a  soft  damp cloth. We  recommend  gentle 
cleansers without solvents. Solvents such as alcohol, gasoline or thinners should not be used because they could damage the surface of 
the device. 

8. 

We recommend to clean the glass part of the stoking door more often and do not let the creation of  the too thick layer of sediment. We 
recommend to use products for cleaning glass of fireplaces and stoves. When cleaning, follow the detergent manufacturer's instructions.
