HOW TO USE THE RANGE
CORRECTLY
First firing
A new JD 27/JD 227 should be fired carefully the first
few times. Then the heat-resistant paint will last longer.
There may also be a slightly unpleasant smell the first
time you light the stove. This is entirely normal and
comes from the film of oil or surplus paint left on the
cast iron. The smell will disappear quite quickly and will
not come back.
Fuel
The best calorific value can be obtained from split birch
wood. Hardwood generally burns more slowly than
softwood, giving a more even heat. If you burn oak,
beech or other types of wood with a high calorific value,
MAINTENANCE
Take good care of your stove and apply stove black when
necessary.
The grate should be regularly shaken and cleared of ash.
Empty the ash pan as soon as it is full.
After a time, a coating of soot may have formed on the
glass. It is easy to keep the glass clean with the ‘Sotrent’
sponge.
Keep the firebox and the flue clean. If you use the stove
a lot, you should brush the chimney a few times between
visits from the sweep.

Cleaning of JD 27/JD 227
The stove is most easily cleaned/soaked by lifting the
steel/ceramic hob. From there you will clean the entire
fireplace and the oven ceeling.
The supplied tool for sweeping is used to access the
right side of the oven and the inside on the right outer
side. Through the soot lid located in the oven bottom,
you will reach the underside of the oven and into the
smoke duct (applicable at back connection).
When there is a top connection, the chimney soot will
fall and land in the back under the oven. This soot is
also accessed through the soot lid located in the oven
bottom.
you should always mix them with other types. Otherwise
you could risk damaging your firebox. The wood must be
dry, ideally with 15–20% moisture content. With normal
firing, around 1–1.5 kg wood/hour should be sufficient.
1 kg of birch wood produces about 4 kW of output.
Lighting
Open the supply air valve fully. The throttle valve on top
of the stove should also be opened to begin with. Place
firelighter briquettes in the middle of the firebox. Stack
around 1.5 kg of kindling crosswise, like a log house, on
top of the firelighters. Start by lighting the briquettes.
These will in turn ignite the wood. Leave the fire door
ajar for the first few minutes until the wood has caught
fire properly. Depending on the draught from the
chimney, you may need to keep the door open slightly
longer to build up heat in the firebox and produce a
satisfactory draught. Then close the door and adjust the
throttle valve according to the intensity of fire you want.
The stove should be heated through before you start to
throttle the supply air valve.
NOTE!
If the flames seem to stop too much when
closing the fire door completely, you can help with a
bit of primary air. This damper is located at the bottom
of the fireplace door. Once the stove has reached
temperature and a satisfactory chimney draft has been
reached, the primary air damper can be closed for a
cleaner combustion.
Adding wood
When the intensity of the fire has decreased, it is time to
add more wood. Open the door carefully. This will pre-
vent smoke inhalation. Use a poker or a piece of wood to
spread ash and embers. Add 2–4 logs and only close the
door when the wood has caught fire (1–1.5 kg of wood). .
Continuous firing
To fire properly, you should try to achieve the highest
possible temperature in the firebox. Then the wood will
burn cleanly and you will get the maximum benefit from
the stove and the wood. Clean combustion will prevent
soot building up in the firebox and on the glass. If you fire
correctly, you should not see any smoke.
