OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATE ONLY WHEN DOOR IS CLOSED: KEEPING
THE DOOR OPEN MIGHT RESULT IN A RUNAWAY
AND CAUSE PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE STOVE
OR A CHIMNEY FIRE.
A WOOD BURNING PRODUCES CARBON DIOXIDE
(CO2) AND CARBON MONOXIDE (CO) WHICH ARE
TOXIC AND LETHAL. IT'S RECOMMENDED TO
INSTALL A CO, CO2 DETECTOR IN THE SAME ROOM
WHERE THE STOVE IS LOCATED.
INSTALL ALSO A SMOKE DETECTOR IN THE SAME
ROOM WHERE THE STOVE IS LOCATED. THE SMOKE
DETECTOR MIGHT GO ON WHEN THERE IS SMOKE
LEAKING OUT.
THIS APPLIANCE IS NOT DESIGNED FOR OTHER
FUEL THAN SEASONED CORDWOOD. FUELS SUCH
AS COAL, CARDBOARD, ETC. COULD PRODUCE
MORE POLUTANT EMISSIONS OR OVERHEAT THE
APPLIANCE AND DAMAGE IT.
NEVER SLAM THE DOOR.
NEVER BURN INFLAMMABLE LIQUID: INFLAMMABLE
LIQUID PRODUCES VERY INTENSE HEAT AND ITS
COMBUSTION IS HARD TO CONTROL. IT MIGHT
CAUSE RUNAWAY AND OVERHEATING OF THE
STOVE. THIS CAN CONSEQUENTLY CAUSE DAMAGE
TO THE STOVE, A CHIMNEY FIRE OR A HOUSE FIRE.
ALWAYS VERIFY IF THE AIR INTAKE IS NOT
OBTRUCTED BEFORE LIGHTING A FIRE.
NEVER ELEVATE FIRE WITH A GRATE OR ANDIRON.
ALWAYS MAKE FIRE DIRECTLY AT THE BOTTOM OF
THE STOVE.
Burning regime control
When the handle under the front stove apron is pushed
completely backward, the air admission is reduced. In that
configuration, air will only comes out from the secondary air
tubes. On the other hand, when the handle is pulled forward,
the air admission increases. This air is coming from the
openings above the door. This is what we called "primary air
admission".
Warning Operating your stove with the door partially or
fully open for a long period of time can damage the stove.
IT IS PROHIBITED TO MODIFY AIR ADMISSION TO
OBTAIN A BRISKER FIRE OR FOR ANY OTHER REASON.
MODIFICATIONS CAN VOID WARRANTY.

Lightning fire
After installing the stove correctly by following the instructions
of the manufacturer, you are ready to light it up.
1)
Pull the handle under the front table of the stove
forward to let the air admission enter in the
combustion chamber.
2)
Put paper and kindling wood in the combustion
chamber and light the fire in your preferred way.
3)
Close the door partially keeping a slight opening.
When the chimney is hot enough, close completely
the door and leave the air admission handle in the
pulled position so that your fire kindle steadily.
4)
Once you have a glowing ember bed, it's time to add
logs. Follow now the instruction section on how to
keep a fire.
DO NOT FILL THE STOVE OVER THE UPPER BRICK.
You can control the combustion process by opening or closing
the air intake. The wood will burn more rapidly with more
primary air admission. Otherwise, the wood will burn slower
and more efficiently with the air intake handle set to secondary
air(minimum).
NEVER LEAVE THE STOVE UNATTENDED WHEN
THE DOOR IS SLIGHTLY OPEN FOR LIGHTING.
ALWAYS CLOSE THE DOOR AFTER LIGHTING.
ALWAYS LEAVE THE DOOR CLOSED WHEN
OPERATING THE STOVE.
NEVER USE CHEMICAL PRODUCTS OR
INFLAMMABLE LIQUID TO START THE FIRE OR
REVIVE THE FLAME.
NEVER USE GASOLINE, GASOLINE-TYPE
LANTERN FUEL, KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER
FLUID, OR SIMILAR LIQUIDS TO START OR
'REVIVE' A FIRE IN THIS STOVE. KEEP SUCH
LIQUIDS AWAY FROM THE STOVE WHILE IT IS IN
USE.
DO NOT BUILD FIRE NEAR THE DOOR GLASS.
KEEP ANY INFLAMMABLE PRODUCTS AWAY
FROM THE APPLIANCE.
First fire
During the first hours of operation, you must heat the stove
gradually in order to allow an appropriate baking of the paint
and to facilitate its adhesion to the metal. Do not heat the
appliance with a brisk fire so as to avoid a thermal shock which
could lift up the paint or fade the color.
Make sure that the room is well ventilated in order to eliminate
odours and smoke coming from the paint during the first hours
of use. This nuisance is merely temporary.
This special paint is conceived to tolerate temperatures up
to1200°F (650°C).
