Operating the system
3.1 Initial
start-up
NOTE
Conduct the initial start-up with an authorized installer or Fröling’s customer
service department!
NOTE
Escaping condensation during the initial heat-up phase does not indicate a
malfunction.
´
Clean up later using a cleaning rag
IMPORTANT
Heating up the boiler too rapidly during initial start-up.
Equipment damage hazard.
If the output during the heating-up process is too great, the combustion chamber may become
damaged due to drying too rapidly!
Drying fissures, on the other hand, are normal and do not indicate a malfunction!
U
Load the boiler with a small amount of waste-wood (max. 10-20% of the fuel loading
chamber)
U
Ignite it and allow it to burn up with the central pre-heating chamber door open
U
Repeat the procedure several times until the combustion chamber is dried out
