GENERAL DESCRIPTION
3.1 THE FUEL
The fuel for this appliance is ordinary wood billets with a moisture content between 10% and 20% and with a thermal value of
13,000 to 15,429 Kcal/kg. We recommend using beech or common hornbeam. If using wood with a lower moisture content or with a
higher thermal value, the heat produced by the stove will be greater.
The awareness and use of the right fuel are important aspects to be observed in order to ensure correct operation and long service
life of the appliance. To this end we recommend using only dry, well-seasoned wood. We recommend against using wet wood or
wood that has been seasoned for less than 18/20 months, as this could be the cause of malfunctions and the formation of tarry
deposits that could permanently blacken the walls of the combustion chamber.
We recommend using logs with a length of 250 mm (max recommended section Ø 80 mm) and loading a maximum of 3-4 logs.
MAXIMUM PERMITTED FUEL FEED: 4.6 kg
THE FUEL FEED INTERVALS MUST NOT BE LESS THAN 50 MINUTES
.
LOADING A LARGER QUANTITY OF
FUEL OR LOADING SEVERAL TIMES IN AN HOUR EXPOSES THE COMPONENTS OF THE APPLIANCE TO
VERY HIGH TEMPERATURES. FOR THIS REASON THE WARRANTY WILL NOT COVER ANY DAMAGE
CAUSED BY PROLONGED EXPOSURE OF THE APPLIANCE TO THESE TEMPERATURES.
The use of fuel that does not comply with the above specifications or the use of different substances or fuels will
immediately void the appliance warranty. The appliance must not be used as an incinerator, and it is prohibited to
use any liquid or gas fuel. Do not overload the stove with excessive quantities of fuel; adhere strictly to the
maximum declared consumption.
