Height adjustment of stove

The Scan 68 has four adjustment screws under the stove. Use the
adjustment screws to get the stove to stand straight and level.
Tilt the wood-burning stove and adjust the adjustment screws.
If you are using a shaped floor plate, you should adjust the stove
upwards to allow the plate to be inserted under the front of the stove.

Existing chimney and pre-fabricated element
chimney
If you intend to connect your stove to an existing chimney, it makes
sense to contact an authorised Scan dealer, or a local chimney sweep
for advice. These experts will also let you know if your flue needs
renovating.
When connecting a pre-fabricated element chimney, follow the
manufacturer's connection instructions for the relevant chimney
type.

Connection between stove and steel chimney

Your Scan dealer, or local chimney sweep, can advise you on choosing
a make and type of steel chimney. This ensures that the chimney
will match your wood-burning stove. As a general rule, the length of
the flue should not be less than 3,5 m measured from the top of the
wood-burning stove.
Some weather or installation conditions might require another
length.
Choosing the wrong length or diameter of steel chimney could impair
functionality.
Always observe the chimney vendor's instructions precisely.

Requirements for chimney

The chimney must be labelled T400 and G for soot testing.
If the stove is installed with elbow pipes or other bends in the chim-
ney, a 6" chimney can be used.
Connection with 90° elbow pipe
If you intend to use an elbow pipe with the Scan 68 we recommend
the use of a curved elbow pipe to improve the draft.
If you are connecting your stove using a sharp elbow bend, the clea-
nout door should be in the vertical section, such that the horizontal
part can be cleaned through it.
