  • Page 10 2-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS CONNECTION OF THE SMOKE EXHAUST DUCT When drilling the hole for the smoke exhaust pipe, the possible presence of flammable materials must be considered. If the hole must be made through a wooden wall or thermolabile material, the INSTALLER MUST first use the relative wall fitting (minimum diam. 13 cm) and adequately insulate the pipe of the product that passes through it, using suitable insulating material (1.3 - 5 cm thick with minimum thermal conductivity 0.07 W/m°K).
  • Page 11 2-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Always use pipes and fittings with appropriate seals that guarantee tightness. It must be possible to inspect all sections of the flue duct and they must be removable for periodic internal cleaning (T-fitting with inspection hole).

  • Page 12 2-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS COMBUSTION AIR During operation a certain amount of air is drawn from the room in which the product is installed and this air must be supplemented through an air inlet. The combustion air in this product is autonomously drawn directly from the grille on the pellet loading door. The 65 mm diameter pipe supplied must be connected to the product and the door as shown in the figure.

Start cabling as follows: In position 2 connect the yellow/green wire while in position 1 connect the remaining two wires (the colour sequence does not matter as the fans do not have polarization) (fig.7).
  • Page 14 2-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS CONNECTION TO THE EXTERNAL AIR INLET It is essential for the room where the product is installed to be adequately ventilated in order to guarantee sufficient air for proper combustion in the appliance. This is possible by means of suitable ventilation openings in the room itself or in an interconnected room through a permanent opening between the rooms.

  • Page 16 2-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS OPERATING PROBLEMS RELATED TO DRAUGHT DEFECTS IN THE CHIMNEY Among all the weather and geographical conditions that affect chimney operation (rain, fog, snow, altitude a.s.l., exposure to sunlight, orientation to the cardinal points, etc.), the wind is certainly the most determinant. In fact, besides the thermal depression caused by the difference in temperature between inside and outside the chimney, there is another type of depression (or overpressure): dynamic pressure caused by the wind.

  • Page 26 3-INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY HOOD VENTILATION GRILLES Foreword Ventilation grilles must be set up according to how the product is placed. If inserted in existing cladding, the ventilation grilles on the cladding will be used. If used as a new installation, the company recommends installing the ventilation grilles as described in the following paragraph. However, it is important to set-up 2 openings, one on the top part and the other on the lower part of the cladding.
  • Page 27 3-INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY ELECTRICAL CONNECTION First connect the power cable to the rear part of the product and then to a wall socket, which must always be accessible. Should this not be possible, during installation, insert appropriate disconnecting power supply devices, in compliance with the national regulations regarding electrical installations.
  • Page 28 If you wish to mount a wooden beam, it must be protected with adequate insulation from the hot parts in order to prevent the risk of fire or damage to the cladding.

  • Page 29 3-INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY ASSEMBLING THE COMPENSATION FRAME Once the cladding and/or the plasterboard is set up, fit the previously removed compensation frame. This frame intends to finish and cover the gap between the metal structure of the product and the cladding. The frame is assembled by simply opening the door of the product, fitting in the frame as shown in the figure and fastening it to the lateral columns of the structure, inside the door profile, with the four screws supplied.

  • Page 30: 4-Operation

    4-OPERATION BEFORE START-UP GENERAL PRECAUTIONS Remove all components that could burn from the firebox and the glass (instructions, various adhesive labels and any polystyrene). Check that the brazier is positioned correctly and rests properly on the base. After a long period of inactivity, remove any pellets left in the hopper (using a vacuum cleaner with a long pipe), as they could have absorbed moisture, thereby altering their original characteristics and no longer being suitable for combustion.
  • Page 31 4-OPERATION It is extremely important to make sure the product is not immediately overheated and the temperature is increased gradually starting from the low power. This will prevent damaging the welds and the steel structure. DO NOT EXPECT HEATING EFFICIENCY IMMEDIATELY!!! LOADING THE PELLETS Fuel is loaded from the side or front door, which is to be fitted on the cladding, which provides access to the fuel loading chute.
