Enjoy your new Morsø stove! Morsø, the biggest stove company in the Danish mar- ket, has been making wood-burning stoves of the highest quality since 1853. Just follow the instructions below, and we are certain that you will be able to use and enjoy your new stove for many years.
We recommend that two people perform the assembly and installation procedure. The Morsø 1412 weighs 70 kg, while the Morsø 1442 weighs 80 kg and the 1452 weighs 120 kg. 1.2 Installing the stove The stove and chimney installations MUST comply to all current National and Local Building Regu- lations;...

The wood-burning stove must never been connected to a chimney to which a gas-burning stove or appliance is connected. An efficient modern stove places heavy demands on the chimney, and you should have the chimney regularly swept and inspected by your approved chimney sweep. The cross-sectional area of the chimney (at its narrowest point) must comply with National and Local Building Regulations.
1.7 Connecting the stove to a masonry chimney A wall sleeve should be bricked securely into the wall of the chimney at the appropriate height and the stovepipe inserted centrally. The pipe must not extend into the actual chimney open- ing, but rather must reach only to the inside of the chimney aperture.
1.9 Draft conditions If smoke spillage occurs when the fire door is opened, it is probably due to poor chimney draft. This type of stove requires at least 12 pa of chimney draft to achieve satisfactory com- bustion and smoke spillage prevention. However, in cases where the stove door is opened too vigorously you could expect that slight smoke spillage may occur.
2.0 Firing/using the stove The heat output of your stove is regulated by means of the air inlets. The primary air supply, i.e. the air which passes through the shaking grate, is controlled by the bottom draft vent, while the secondary air supply, i.e.
2.1 Lighting and refuelling intervals A lot of air is needed when first lighting the stove. When starting with a totally cold stove, it may be helpful to leave the door ajar (2-3 cm) during the first few minutes; the secondary air intake should be fully open.

5. Refuelling of your stove should be done while there are still glowing embers in the bed. Spread the embers across the bottom, but concentrated mostly towards the front of the stove. 6. Place three pieces of fuel weighing roughly 0.6 kg and measuring about 25 cm in length across the coals in one layer, with spacing of roughly 1 cm between the pieces of wood.

The stove door should normally be opened gently the first 2 - 3 centimetres, then you should wait until the pressure has equalised before opening the door all the way. This technique will prevent smoke from getting out, particularly when there is a poor draught. The stove door should never be opened when the stove is being fired vigorously.
3.0 Routine stove maintenance 3.1 External maintenance The surface of the stove is painted with heat-resistant Senotherm paint. If the stove is used too vigorously, the painted surface may take-on a greyish tinge. It is easily maintained by sim- ply vacuuming the surface with a soft brush attachment and applying two light layers of paint. Morsø...
Reasons for overly rapid wear of internal parts - Stove fired too vigorously. - Too much air coming through the bottom grate. - Use of very dry wood (wood from old furniture). - Too much soot on top of the baffles (please see the section on Cleaning). - Too much ash in the ash pan (please see the section on Ash).
4.0 HETAS amendments Health and safety precautions Special care must be taken when installing the stove such that the requirements of the Health and Safety at Work Act are met. Handling Adequate facilities must be available for loading, unloading and site handling. Fire Cement Some types of fire cement are caustic and should not be allowed to come into contact with the skin.

Any existing chimney must be clear of obstruction and have been swept clean immediately before installation of the stove. If the stove is fitted in place of an open fire then the chimney should be swept one month after installation to clear any soot falls which may have occurred due to the difference in combustion between the stove and the open fire.

Extractor fan There must not be an extractor fan fitted in the same room as the stove as this can cause the stove to emit smoke and fumes into the room. Permanent air vent The stove requires a permanent and adequate air supply in order for it to operate safely and efficiently.

IMPORTANT! How to heat safely for the environ- ment and yourself! • Use only dry wood Use only dry (max. 20% moisture content) and untreated wood. The fuel must be split and 8 - 12 cm thick. • Light Light with dry kindling (use 1 - 2 kg). Leave the door ajar and stay close to the stove during the lighting phase.
