English
The wood pellet is obtained by pressing wood sawdust left over from the
working of natural dried wood. The typical small, cylindrical form is obtained
by passing the material through a die. Thanks to lignin, a natural element
which is released during the pressing of the raw material, the pellets acquire
a good consistency and compactness without requiring treatment with
additives or caking agents.
There are various types of pellet on the market with qualities and
characteristics that vary depending on the processes they have undergone
and the type of wood used in their production.
Since the characteristics and quality of the pellet considerably affect
stove performance, efficiency and proper operation, we recommend
that you use high-quality pellets.
The factory has tested and programmed its stoves and can ensure
best performance and trouble-free operation using pellets with the
following specific characteristics:
This “customisation” of stove settings must be carried out at
a Superior Service Centre or by specially qualified personnel
authorised by the factory.
Using pellets that are out of date or not in conformity with the
manufacturer’s recommendations not only damages the stove
and jeopardises its performance, but can render the guarantee
null and void and relieves the manufacturer of all liability.

To ensure trouble-free operation:
DO NOT
use pellets with dimensions other than those recommended by the
manufacturer
DO NOT
use poor quality pellets containing sawdust, bark, maize, resins or
chemical substances, additives or adhesives.
DO NOT
use damp pellets.
Choosing other and unsuitable pellets:
- obstructs the grate and flue gas pipes;
- increases fuel consumption;
- reduces efficiency;
- means that proper stove operation cannot be guaranteed;
- causes dirt to build up on the glass;
- leaves particles which have failed to burn and heavy cinders.
The presence of moisture in the pellets increases their volume and causes
them to split which in turn causes:
- malfunction of the fuel-loading system;
- inefficient combustion.
Pellets should be stored in a sheltered, dry place.
To use good quality pellets with dimensions and heat-producing properties
other than those recommended above, it will be necessary to change the
stove operating parameters.
To load the pellets into the hopper it is advisable to tear off the edge of the
sack and empty the sack directly into the hopper. This makes filling easier
and avoids pouring pellets on top of the stove.
Do not allow sawdust to accumulate on the bottom of the hopper.
Do leave leftover pellets on top of the stove – they could catch fire!
