7 Commissioning and use
7.1 General warnings
During the functioning, the stove is subject to a significant
heating, particularly in correspondence to the upper level,
of the head and of the door of the fire box. In this regard,
the fuel loading must be performed only by adult persons
and anyway enabled to use the stove. So, it's suitable
that children and/or persons unable to use the stove, do
not approach on their own.
Always use the glove supplied to open the door of the
stove while it is on.
Never use liquid fuels, as alcohol, gasoline, kerosene,
etc.
Do not use fire-lighters lumps derived from petroleum or
other chemical derivatives since they increase the risk
to damage the fire box walls.
Do not use the stove in case of abnormal operation
and do not clean it until the structure and the ashes are
completely cooled down.
In the event of a blaze in the stove, attempt to turn
off the stove by closing all the primary air required for
combustion and immediately call the emergency services.
7.2 Lighting for the first time
Check that all moving parts are well positioned and that
the air regulator and the smoke valve function correctly.
The first lighting (after the installation or at the beginning
of the season) must be carried out with reduced loads (~
1kg/h) keeping the device on for at least 4 hours at low
rate. Proceed with these feed rates for at least three days
before using the appliance at its full capacity. This will
allow for the evaporation of any moisture accumulated
in the refractory elements when not used.
Light the fire using old and finely chopped wood so that
the flame develops as much as possible. Once the fire
is going well you can use larger pieces of wood provided
they are dry.
The first time you light the fireplace smoke and unpleasant
odours might form and escape due to the complete drying
of some of the materials used. This phenomenon will
gradually disappear.
Do not touch the painted parts during the initial ignitions
to avoid damage to the painting.
During the first lightings, we recommend that you keep
the premises well ventilated.
7.2.1 Fuel type
The reference standard for the fuel is the UNI EN ISO
17222-5 "specifications and classification for firewood".
The stove should preferably be fuelled with well seasoned
beech/birch wood or with wood briquettes in commercial
sizes of 25 or 33 cm.
Wood should have a recommended percentage of
humidity between 12 and 20%.
Each type of wood has different characteristics that also
affect the combustion efficiency.
The use of conifers (pine-fir) is discouraged: they contain
high quantities of resinous substances that quickly clog
the flue.
It is prohibited to burn: waste, bark, wood treated with
paints, panels, coal, plastic materials; in these cases the
warranty of the appliance is voided.
The nominal yield declared in kW of the stove, is obtained
by burning a correct quantity of wood, being careful not
to overload the combustion chamber.
The recommended quantity of wood is indicated in the
technical data table.
It is absolutely forbidden to make use of any type of
coal, wood treated with wood protection substances,
cardboard and paper (use only for ignition).
IT IS forbidden to use the stove as incinerator. The
combustion of waste is prohibited in accordance with the
law on gas discharges. The burned gases resulting from
the combustion may cause damage to the stove, to the
flue and damage your health.
