1.3.1 Fire door (A)
The fire door is opened by pulling the handle outwards; a protective glove is supplied for that purpose (the handle
becomes very hot). There are air inlet slots around the top and bottom edges of the fire door to keep the glass clean.
1.3.2 Ash door (B)
The ash door is opened by pulling the handle outwards, to access a compartment with a removable ash pan inside.
1.3.4 Baffle inspection door (D)
This door gives access to the baffle located under the oven for cleaning.
1.3.5 Oven (E)
The oven is heated by the combustion gases flowing around it and its temperature can be read on the thermometer on
the door glass. A sufficient draught and clean fume ducts are essential for optimum efficiency. The oven is supplied
with two grills. When putting pans in the oven, take into account the possible rising of food and the minimum space
between pans and the sides of the oven (min. 20 mm).
1.3.6 Secondary air (F)
The stove secondary air is for burning unburnt gases produced by the combustion process.
The secondary air must be opened especially when burning wood.
It is controlled by the lever on the back of the stove: in position A the secondary air is fully open and in position Z it is
closed.
1.3.7 Cast iron hotplate (G)
The cast iron hotplate has concentric rings of max. diameter 320 mm in the fire zone and a rectangular plate for
possible insertion of a tank containing water. The rings can be removed using the poker, to inspect the firebox or for
inserting cauldrons.
1.3.8 Baffle control lever (H)
By turning the lever located on the left of the flue connection to position A, the fumes are forced to flow around the
oven, thus raising the temperature in an even way. When the lever is turned to position Z, the combustion gases flow
over the oven and under the cast iron hotplate directly towards the outlet collar.
Position “Z” is advisable when lighting the stove and during summer operation.
Position "A" must be used for oven cooking.
Fig.2 Primary air control
1.3.3 Primary air control (C)
By means of the revolving air control on the ash door the primary air can flow into
the lower part of the stove through the ash pan and grate. The primary air is
necessary for the combustion process, therefore make sure to empty the ash pan
regularly so that the ash cannot obstruct the combustion air inlet. When the arrow
is in position 0, the air inlet is closed; when the arrow is in position 3, the air inlet is
fully open.
Warning: Wider adjustments can cause overheating and damage to the stove
