Under normal conditions we recommend that the stove burns 2
kg of wood per hour. The maximum permissible amount is 3.5 kg
per hour. Most types of wood can be used: deciduous (broad-leaf)
woods are preferable, as they generally burn more calmly. It is
important that the wood is dry and that logs are of a suitable size:
about 25–35 cm long and 7–9 cm in diameter. Always open and
close the door slowly and carefully to prevent the sudden changes
in pressure inside the stove which otherwise can cause a back-
draught of smoke in the room.
1. Open the air supply control by moving the damper spindle to the
right.
2. Place newspaper or a firelighter in the fire-box. Then stack
about 3–3.5 kg of fine-split logs on the fire-bed, laid in a criss-
cross pattern as shown.
3. Light the fire.
4. Push the door to, but do not close it until the fire is burning well
(after about 10–15 minutes).
5. When the first pile of logs has burnt down, stoke up the fire
again by placing 3 or 4 logs (weighing 2–2.5 kg in all) on the
embers.
Pulling out the damper bar opens the grate disc. This should only
be done for a short time when lighting or re-stoking the fire to
ensure that the wood catches light quickly, and when riddling the
ash into the ash pan. If the grate is left open for a long time, the
stove and the chimney may be damaged as a result of the excessive
heat.
Important!
It is essential that the wood starts to burn quickly. Smouldering
produces excessive amounts of smoke and may, in exceptional
circumstances, cause the fumes produced to ignite spontaneously
and damage the stove. You can get the logs to burn quickly by
opening the grate disc for a short while after re-stoking the fire,
or by leaving the door ajar until the wood is burning.
Important!
Please read the separate Lighting and Maintenance
Instructions carefully before lighting the stove for
the first time.
