Removing Ash - Lacunza Tarbes Instruction Book

For safety reasons, never close all the
appliance's combustion-air intakes.
Primary-air intake
By opening this inlet, air enters the
firebox via the firebox grille.
Secondary-air intake
By opening this inlet, air enters the
firebox via the top of the firebox door.
IMPORTANT: Keeping the secondary-air
intake open helps keep the door glass
cleaner for longer.
Double-combustion air intake
By opening this inlet, air enters the
combustion flame, making for more
efficient and less polluting combustion
because post-combustion takes place,
burning the particles which were not
burned in the first combustion. This
increases the performance of the appliance
and reduces emissions.
Controlling combustion air
The appliance has one air slide that
regulates both the primary air and the
secondary air inlet. If the air slide is in
position B1 (See previous images section
3.2.1), the primary and the secondary air
inlets are open. As the air slide is further
closed, the primary air inlet and then the
secondary air inlet is closed. If the air slide
is completely closed in position B3, a small
air vent remains open to allow for post-
combustion under the baffle plate.
IMPORTANT: The appliance is exposed to
extreme changes in temperature and may,
as a result, make noises when in operation.
These noises are a natural result of
expansion/contraction of the parts which
INSTRUCTIONS OF USE
make up the appliance. Do not be alarmed
by noises of this kind.
In order to obtain maximum output,
open all the air intakes to the firebox and
in order to obtain minimum output, tend
towards closing them. For normal use, we
recommend you close the Primary Intake
and leave the Secondary Intake 40% open.

1- The primary air inlet regulates the
air under the grate
2- The secondary air inlet regulates
the air for the glass (air wash)
3- The back wall has permanent vents
below the baffle plate that allow for
post-combustion.

3.7. Removing ash

Following
appliance, it is necessary to remove the ash
from the firebox. Remove the ashpit box
when cold or using something to prevent
yourself from getting burned (glove).
Never throw hot embers into the
rubbish.
