The rear wall of the furnace does not become hot.
No minimum distance must be maintained for fire
safety reasons. Nevertheless, we strongly recom-
mend maintaining a distance of 20 cm to the rear
(e.g. for maintenance work) in order to ensure ac-
cessibility.
Floors made of flammable material, such as car-
pet, parquet flooring or cork, must be replaced or
protected by a surface of non-flammable materi-
als, such as ceramic, stone, glass or a floor plate
made of steel, under the furnace as well as in front
of the combustion chamber opening at least 50 cm
to the front and at least 30 cm to the sides beyond
the furnace opening (not the outside edge of the
unit, but rather the inside edge of the combustion
chamber opening).
No additional thermal insulation is required
underneath the furnace; a load-bearing and
fire-safe surface is sufficient
, as there is no
downward heat emission. All air intake and outlet
openings must be kept completely free and may
not be blocked or covered:
danger of the furnace
overheating!
The
minimum clearance
between the hot flue
pipe (connection piece to the chimney) and
components to be protected must be designed
according to the the specifications of the
manufacturer of the flue pipe
(Dimension D)
.
If the
flue pipe
is not connected directly
horizontally as recommended, but rather led
vertically behind the furnace, the vertical part of
the flue pipe must have a minimum clearance of
5 cm to the rear wall of the furnace (dimension
E)
.
If the flue pipe is run through a wall with flammable
components to the chimney, either a non-
flammable,
dimensionally
stable
thermal
insulation is required in a
perimeter of 20 cm
to
the flue pipe, or a protective tube at a
distance of
20 cm
to the flue pipe is required
(Maß F)
.

Approved Fuels
According to the 1st Federal Immission Control
Act (1st BImSchV), only
natural wood pellets
are
permitted. Cut firewood or other burnable or waste
materials may never be used.
Only pellets which have been certified accord-
ing to ENplus-A1, DINplus or DIN EN 14961-2
Class A1 may be used in wodtke Pellet-
Primärofen units. Wood pellets with an ash
content of > 0.7% may also not be used, as oth-
erwise the cleaning and maintenance expense
is too high. Be sure to observe the notices re-
garding pellet quality in Chapter 3.8!
Cut firewood or other burnable or waste mate-
rials may never be used. Other fuels also lead
to damage to the wodtke Pellet Primärofen and
burden our environment.
If the furnace is not operated with approved
fuels, any warranty or guarantee claims are
void and dangerous operating conditions may
result. Do not perform any experiments.
A pellet diameter between 5 and 8 mm is per-
mitted
3
. The length of the pellets should not ex-
ceed 30 mm. Pellets with high dust content (>5%)
should likewise not be used.

The recommended pellet diameter is 6 mm; in case of devia-
tions, the fuel throughput may need to be adjusted. The same also
applies for differing lengths.
