B. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
b.1 Initial warnings
The device must be installed on a pavement that presents an adequate burden capacity. If the
existing building does not satisfy this requirement, appropriate measures (for instance a
burden distribution plate) must be taken.
The installation of the device must guarantee an easy access to clean the stove, the
exhausted gas piping and the flue.
Extraction fans can cause problems, when used in the same room or space of the device.
b.2 Moving and transporting
Make sure that the devised used for lifting and transporting the stove support its weight, which
is reported on the identity plate on the back of the stove. The lifting of the stove is normally
performed with an elevation trolley, by inserting the pitchforks in the proper slots of the
wooden packing. In order to position the stove inside a room, a good general rule is to lay the
stove on the floor gently, with maximum caution and avoiding any violent impact.
b.3 Positioning
For positioning the stove, we suggest you to choose a spot that is as central as possible to the
area you wish to heat; this will facilitate a uniform distribution of the heat and will help
obtaining an optimum efficiency.
We recommend putting a floor-guarding plate close to the flue or to inflammable materials
(such as parquet or carpeting).
For safety reasons, maintain a distance of at least 20cm
between the hot sides of the stove and possibly
inflammable covering materials (such as glass-beaded
walls, wallpapers et cetera); otherwise, use specific
insulating materials, available on sale.
