THE FIRE PAINT ONLY HARDENS PROPERLY AF-
TER HEATING UP DURING USE.
Do not touch the surface during heating. It is still soft.
Our paints are completely harmless in accordance with
the TÜV-certificate; there is no danger to health. In
spite of that we recommend that the house is well
ventilated several times after first heating.
Heat the fire up well – this will reduce the hardening
time.
Hardening of the surface is complete after several
proper periods of heating.
All details on the nature of the fire wood and correct
heating can be found in Chapter 2.
ASH DRAWER
(Illustrated in Fire, Part 46)
The ash drawer must be emptied regularly to prevent
excessive heating of the fire grid.
Never heat the fire with the ash drawer open
→
danger of overheating
→
loss of warranty.
Caution: Embers could remain in the ash. Only fill the
ash into non-flammable containers and do not put the
ash onto flammable surfaces.
OPERATING THE SHAKER GRATE
The ash is moved from the fire into the ash rawer (part
46) by moving the shaker grate handle (Part 41) to and
fro. This frees up room for the primary feed air that is
required for the heating phase in the fire.
It is not necessary to operate the shaker grate
during heating.

draught and the weather conditions, you must get used to
the use of this secondary control slide according to your
own experience
