EdilKamin Italiana Camini IDROPOINT Installation, Use And Maintenance Manual page 211

First Ignition/Testing by the Edilkamin authorised Techni-
cal Assistance Centre (TAC)
Start-up must be carried out as prescribed by standard UNI
10683/2012, point 3.21.
The said standard indicates the checks to be carried out dur-
ing installation, aimed at ensuring the correct operation of the
system.
Edilkamin technical assistance (TAC) will also calibrate the
stove on the basis of the type of pellets and the installation
conditions.
Start-up by the TAC is necessary for the validity of the guaran-
tee.
The first times the stove is lit, there may be a slight smell of
paint; this will soon disappear.
Before lighting the stove, check:
==> Correct installation.
==> The electricity supply.
==> The closure of the door, which must be air-tight
==> The cleaning of the crucible.
==> That indication of stand-by mode on the display (date,
power or temperature flashing on and off).
LOADING THE PELLETS INTO THE HOPPER
Remove the metallic cover in order to fill the hopper
ATTENTION:
If loading the stove during operation, and therefore while
hot, use the special glove provided.
During the first ignition carry out the air/water bleeding
operation using the manual valve (V) under the steel covers
(fig. 2-3).
N.B.: you can see the valve positioned on the right side if
the metal right side will be disassembled.
NOTES on fuel
IDROPOINT is designed and programmed to burn wood pel-
lets with a diameter of about 6 mm.
Pellets are fuel in the form of small cylindrical elements pro-
duced by highly compressed sawdust without the addition of
glues or other foreign substances.
It is sold in 15 kg bags.
ONLY pellets must be burnt in the stove, otherwise it will
NOT function correctly.
If any other material is used (including wood), which can be
detected by laboratory analysis, the guarantee shall not be
valid.
EDILKAMIN has designed, tested and programmed its own
products in order to guarantee best performance with pellets
of the following features:
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

fig. 1
V
fig. 2
fig. 3
diameter: 6 millimetres
maximum length: 40 mm
maximum humidity: 8 %
heat yield: at least 4300 kcal/kg
The use of pellets with other features requires specific calibra-
tion of the stove, similar to that carried out by the TAC (Tech-
nical Assistance Centre) when the stove is lit for the first time.
The use of unsuitable pellets can cause: decreased yield; func-
tioning anomalies; close-down due to clogging; soiled glass;
non-combustion; ...
A simple analysis of the pellets can be carried out by visual
examination:
Good: smooth, regular length, little dust.
Poor: with longitudinal and transversal cracks, dusty, variable
length, presence of foreign bodies.
