Pellet Quality
Pellet quality is important - please read the following:
Your wood pellet fi re has been designed to burn ¼“
(6mm) diameter wood pellets, manufactured to the AS/
NZS 4014.6 standard only.
The performance of your wood pellet fi re is greatly
affected by the type and quality of wood pellets being
burned. As the heat output of various quality wood
pellets differs, so will the performance and heat output of
the wood pellet fi re.
Caution: It is important to select and use only pellets
that are dry and free of dirt or any impurities such as
high salt content. Wood pellets manufactured to the
AS/NZS 4014.6 standard are recommended. Dirty fuel
will adversely affect the operation and performance
of the unit and will void the warranty. The Pellet Fuel
Industries (PFI) has established standards for wood
pellet manufacturers. We recommend the use of pellets
that meet or exceed these standards. Ask your dealer for
a recommended pellet type.
2.2
Flammable Liquids
Never use gasoline, gasoline–type lantern fuel, kerosene,
charcoal lighter fl uid or similar liquids to start or “freshen
up” a fi re in the heater. Keep all such liquids well away
from the heater while it is in use.
2.3
Cleaning the fi re pot before and after
each lighting
You must check that the Burn Pot Liner, where the
combustion takes place, is clean and that no waste or
residue blocks the holes, in order to always guarantee
excellent combustion of the stove. This will help avoid
possible overheating, which could causes changes in
the colour of the paint, as well as failure to light the stove.
Only a clean fi re pot can guarantee that the wood pellet
fi re will function without problems. During functioning,
deposits may be formed, which have to be immediately
eliminated. It is easy to see when the fi re pot has to
be cleaned! It only needs a glimpse, each day, before
switching on. For minor cleaning, it can be left in the
stove, but if the residue is diffi cult to remove, it has to be
extracted from its housing and the waste scraped out.
The ash content of the fuel and operation of your stove
will directly determine how frequently you will need to
clean out the fi re pot. The use of high ash fuels may
result in the stove needing to be cleaned daily whereas
Please read this entire manual before operating your
Ravelli
Wood Pellet Fire. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in poor performance, damage to
the fi re, property damage, bodily injury or even death.
Any unauthorised modifi cation of the appliance or use
of replacement parts not supplied by the manufacturer
is prohibited.
All national and local regulations shall be complied with
when installing this appliance. Your local
