10. CONNECTION AND MAINTENANCE OF VENTILATION
The control unit and the plant must be installed and connected by authorized personnel according to the standards in force
(see
chapter.2).
ATTENTION: the feeding cable must not be in contact with hot parts.
Our products are equipped with tangential fan kit suitable to improve the distribution of heat by ventilation only either of the installation room
or of the adjacent local (see chapter Canalization).
The Kit is made up of a centrifugal fan, a lighting and adjustment control unit, and a thermostat that lets the fan start when the device is
properly heated and lets it stop when the fan is partially cold.
CONNECTION
: Connect the power supply cable of the control unit to a bipolar switch respecting at least a 3 mm distance between the
contacts (power supply 230V~ 50Hz, it is necessary to provide for the correct connection to the grounding plant).
For the connection of the ventilation kit, please see
.
WARNING: The COMMAND must be connected to the mains with a differential line cut-off switch according to the regulations
in force. Correct operation of the command is assured only for the proper motor for which it has been manufactured.
Improper use relieves the manufacturer from each responsibility
.
11. LIGHTING
WARNING:
After the first ignition you can smell bad odours (owing to the drying of the glue used in the garnitures or of the paint) which
disappear after a brief using of the appliance.
It must be ensured, in any case, a good ventilation of the environment.
Upon the
first ignition we suggest loading a reduced quantity of fuel and slightly increasing the calorific value of the equipment
To perform a correct first lighting of the products treated with paints for high temperature, it is necessary to know the following information:
•
the construction materials of the involved products are not homogeneous, in fact there are simultaneously parts in cast iron, steel,
refractory material and majolica;
•
the temperature to which the body of the product is subject is not homogeneous: from area to area, variable temperatures within
the range of 300°C - 500°C are detected;
•
during its life, the product is subject to alternated lighting and extinguishing cycles in the same day, as well as to cycles of intense
use or of absolute standstill when season changes;
•
the new appliance, before being considered seasoned has to be subject to many start cycles to allow all materials and paints to
complete the various elastic stresses;
•
in detail, initially it is possible to remark the emission of smells typical of metals subject to great thermal stress, as well as of wet
paint. This paint, although during the manufacture it is backed at 250 °C for some hours, must exceed many times and for a given
period of time the temperature of 350 °C before becoming completely embedded in the metallic surfaces.
Therefore, it is extremely relevant to take these easy steps during the lighting:
1. Make sure that a strong air change is assured in the room where the appliance is installed.
2. During the first starts, do not load excessively the combustion chamber (about half the quantity indicated in the instructions manual)
and keep the product continuously ON for at least 6-10 hours with the registers less open than the value indicated in the instructions
manual.
3. Repeat this operation for at least 4-5 or more times, according to your possibilities.
4. Then load more and more fuel (following in any case the provisions contained in the installation booklet concerning maximum load)
and, if possible, keep the lighting periods long avoiding, at least in this initial phase, short ON/OFF cycles.
5. During the first starts, no object should be leaned on the appliance and in detail on enameled surfaces. Enameled surfaces
must not be touched during heating
.
6. Once the «break-in» has been completed, it is possible to use the product as the motor of a car, avoiding abrupt heating with
excessive loads.
To light the fire, it is suggested to use small wood pieces together with paper or other traded lighting means.
It is FORBIDDEN to use any liquid substance as for ex. alcohol, gasoline, oil and similar
.
The openings for air (primary and secondary) must be opened together (you must open the eventual butterfly valve placed on the pipe of
smokes exhaust). When the wood starts burning, you may load other fuels and adjust the air for combustion according to the instructions
on paragraph
.
Please always be present during this phase
.
Never overload the appliance
(see the technical table - max. quantity of fuel that can be loaded / hourly consumption).
Too much fuel and
too much air for combustion can cause overheating and therefore damage the appliance.
The warranty does not cover the damages
due to overheating of the equipment.
Never switch on the device when there are combustible gases in the room
.
11.1. NORMAL OPERATION
After having positioned the registers correctly, insert the indicated hourly wood load avoiding overloads that cause anomalous stresses
and deformations.
You should always use the product with the door closed in order to avoid damages due to overheating (forge
effect). The inobservance of this rule makes the warranty expire.
For safety reasons the door of the appliances with constructive system 1, must be opened only for the loading of the fuel or for removing
