3.4 Unpacking
All cardboard and synthetic materials are recyclable. Please dispose of these at your local
recycling center. None of the wooden parts have been surface treated, and they can be used
as heating materials for your woodstove. Very carefully open the packaging so that you do
not damage anything. Prior to installation, make sure that the base construction can support
the weight of the stove! Use only proper lifting aids with adequate support capacities to
move your woodstove.
Please do not stand on top of your woodstove; it is not designed to be used as a ladder or
scaffolding.
3.5
Acceptable Fuel
Acceptable fuel sources are pieces of wood with a length of 30 cm (12”) and a diameter of 10 cm (4”), as well as wood
briquettes.
Only air-dried wood should be used.
The burning of waste materials, in particular synthetic materials, is not permit-
ted according to federal laws regulating emissions.
In addition, this causes damage to the fireplace and chimney. Air-
dried wood will achieve a maximum water content of 30% after at least 1 year (soft woods) and/or 2 years (hard woods).
Wood is not designed for continuous burning, i.e. heating the fireplace overnight with wood is not possible.
4.
Safety (Please read, very important!!!)
?
Check on a regular basis to make sure that the woodstove has been attached to the chimney in compliance with
all regulations.
?
Carefully read the User’s Guide before you use your woodstove for the first time. This will provide you with
information about how to safely operate your stove.
?
During operation, the woodstove’s surface will become very hot. Pay attention, in particular, to children playing
in the vicinity of the stove, as they are most likely to be at risk of injury. Keep small children away from the
stove.
?
Make sure that no combustible material is located in the vicinity of or on top of the woodstove.
?
Keep the door to the fireplace closed at all times, even if the woodstove is not in operation (with the exception of
the initial heating up cycle).
?
Avoid overloading your woodstove by adding too much fuel at one time.
?
Never use alcohol, gasoline or other illegal, fire accelerators to start your fire.
?
No combustible elements should be located within the heat radiation area of your woodstove.
?
Empty the ash drawer on a regular basis so that it never completely fills up with ashes. Otherwise, the air sup-
ply to the woodstove will be blocked.
?
Always slide the ash drawer back in up to the stop position.
?
Be sure to provide an adequate supply of fresh air to the woodstove. The stove consumes oxygen.
?
Do not forget that a kitchen fan that is located in the same or an adjacent room can cause a vacuum situation,
which results in a smoke build-up within the room. Make sure that you have a sufficient supply of fresh air.
?
Never remove hot ashes. Store the ashes in a container that is fire-proof and not combustible.
?
Always use the protective glove when operating the woodstove. Do not touch the stove with your bare hand
when it is in operation.
?
Do not store any combustible liquids in the vicinity of your woodstove!
