Banned fuel types
It is not allowed to stoke a fire with the following: printed matter, plywood, plastic, rubber, fluid fuels,
and rubbish such as milk cartons, lacquered wood or impregnated wood and fossil fuels. The reason that
you should not apply any of the above is that during combustion they develop substances that are health
hazardous and harmful to the environment. These substances could also damage your wood burning stove
and chimney, rendering the product warranty void.
Storage of wood
A water content of a maximum of 20% is achieved by storing the wood for a minimum of one year,
preferably two years, outdoors under a lean-to. Wood stored indoors has a tendency to become too
dry and combust too quickly. However, it might be advantageous to store fuel for lighting a fire indoors
for a few days prior to use.
Recommended dimensions
The dimensions of the fuel are important to good combustion. The dimensions should be as follows:
Fuel type
Length in cm
Diameter in cm
Wood for kindling a fire (finely chopped)
25-30
2-5
Chopped wood
25-30
7-9
Special lighting guide for wood-burning stoves with soapstone cladding
Soapstone is a natural product that must be allowed to adapt to fluctuations in temperature. We recom-
mend following the procedure below:
1. First stoking
Turn the regulator (drawing E, 1) clockwise to maximum. Place two pieces of wood (5-8 cm in diameter)
horizontally in the bottom of the combustion compartment (corresponding to 1-2 kg). Place 5-8 pieces
of kindling randomly on top. Place two firelighters between the top layer of kindling. Light up the fire-
lighters and close the stove door. If condensation forms on the glass, keep the door ajar for a little while
and close again. When the fire has gone out, open the door and leave it open while the stove cools to
room temperature.
2. Second stoking
Turn the regulator (drawing E, 1) clockwise to maximum. Place two pieces of wood (5-8 cm in diameter)
horizontally in the bottom of the combustion compartment (corresponding to 1-2 kg). Place 5-8 pieces
of kindling randomly on top. Place two firelighters between the top layer of kindling. Light up the fire-
lighters and close the stove door. If condensation forms on the glass, keep the door ajar for a little while
and close again. When no more yellow flames are visible and a suitable layer of embers has built up, the
stove can be stoked again. There is a suitable layer of embers when the bottom of the stove is covered
completely. Half fill the combustion chamber with dry wood with a diameter of about 7-9 cm. When all
of the wood has caught fire, turn the regulator (1) to middle position. Allow the fire to burn and let the
stove cool to room temperature before stoking again.
3. Third stoking
Repeat the procedure for the second stoking, but put in more wood this time. Allow the fire to burn and
let the stove cool to room temperature after the fire has gone out.
Restoking:
Follow the general instructions, see the sections “Lighting the stove” and “Stoking”.
