Put a newspaper or a solid igniter together with wooden chips in the combustion chamber. Stack pieces of
wood crosswise on each other. Fully open the supply of primary as well as secondary air. If the fire does not
burn correctly, you can leave the ashpan slightly open. This will also heat up the glass and prevent formation
of soot coating.
As soon as the fire starts burning correctly, close the ashpan.
During the next loading of wood the burning embers will be evenly distributed in the combustion chamber
and you can add larger pieces of wood, approx. 2 - 3 pieces. If the wood burns properly, close the primary air
supply. Leave the secondary air supply open.
After a few moments, as long as the fire is burning properly, you may find it necessary to reduce the released
heat. First, control the burning speed with the wood quantity in the stove. At the same time you can reduce
the supply of secondary air.
The quantity of air for combustion and for the heat output also depends on the draught of the chimney,
humidity and size of the pieces of wood.
5.3
Environment-friendly heating
Too much wood in the combustion chamber causes overheating. This means high stressing of the stove and brings
bad flue gas values. If you supply too little wood, the stove will not achieve the required operation temperature.
Consequently, the wood does not burn cleanly, which leads to formation of soot deposits on the glass and on the
firebrick walls. Therefore, only fill the combustion chamber with wooden pieces up to one half and add small
quantities of wood more frequently. Your stove is no waste incineration plant. Only use wood or wooden
briquettes.
5.4
Loading wood
Only reload wood when there are no flames.
To reload wood, first open the air slider completely. The throttle flap must be open, then open the door slowly and
insert pieces of wood. The door must always be opened slowly to avoid possible flashback.
Then, close the door again. If the fire had been burnt out quite a lot before the reloading, leave the air slider in the
fully open position for approx. 5 to 10 minutes. After that, set it in the position for normal operation. After heating
up and new addition of wood light soot layers may deposit on firebrick parts and the glass, but they will burn
again with the rising temperature of the fire. Burning of wet wood causes formation of strong soot deposits in the
stove. Therefore, the residual humidity of wood should be higher than 20 %.
5.5
Maximum fuel quantity
The wood-burning stove is designed for the maximum quantity of 2.5 kg of split wood or 2 kg of wooden
briquettes. If the maximum fuel quantity per charge is exceeded, your wood-burning stove may get
damaged.
5.6
Ending the heating
After burning out of the fire, when wood only glows, close the combustion air slider. Thanks to this the
stove will irradiate heat for a longer time. Otherwise, the stove will cool down more quickly due to the
inflowing (cold) fresh air, i.e. the heat energy will escape through the flue.
5.7
Heating in transition periods
In transition periods (spring / autumn) smoke may accumulate in the flue under certain climatic conditions
(sun shining on the chimney). If you cannot establish sufficient draught even by means of a release fire
(=short-time production of strong heat by rapid burning of a newspaper in the flue), which means that flue
gas cannot be fully extracted, you should refrain from making a fire.
6.
Cleaning and maintenance
ALL CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE WORK CAN ONLY BE
CARRIED OUT WITH THE WOOD-BURNING STOVE FULLY
COOLED DOWN.
