DIRECTIONS OF USE
2.7. Procedure in case of incidences – safe shutdown
In some rare cases there is the possibility that there is no draught in the chimney
and that even a pilot fire will not help. If that‘s the problem, you have to contact
a chimney sweeper, in no case try to light a bigger fire. If there is smoke esca-
ping from the stove, of course the chimney sweeper has to be informed, too.
Open every window immediately, to make sure that there is enough fresh air
available.
2.8. Refilling
Open the primary air vent in the combustion chamber door and
the secondary air vent in the rear wall and set the control valve
in the exhaust gas stub to position A. Then open the combustion
chamber door and fill with wooden logs until reaching the rear wall.
Make sure to leave enough space underneath the logs, as that will
prevent the fire from being choked. Then close the com-
bustion chamber door. Once the logs are well burnt, you can consider
curtailing the primary and secondary air vent to facilitate a more regular
burn-off. Make sure to leave the primary air vent open at all times for the
pane ventilation to function without interference.
2.9. Bed of ashes
Remember to leave a 5-10 cm layer of ashes on the ground of the
combustion chamber. The bed of ashes will protect the ground
of the kiln from blowing. Remove only excess ashes with a shovel
every now and then. You can obtain the required accessories from your
Kanuk® co-contractor.
2.10. Cleaning
The gas leading parts of the Kanuk® hot-air kilns (baffle plate,
butterfly valve, etc.) and the connecting pieces need to be cleaned in case
of defilement. Carry out a cleaning in all cases once during and after the
heating period. The sealing cord of the combustion chamber door needs
to be replaced in case of damage.
