NEWS INTRODUCTION Warmth from Nature - these words perfectly encapsulate the Hitze brand philosophy. In line with this philosophy, we manufacture fireplaces and cookers that burn wood or wood pellets, which are the least environmentally damaging raw materials. Thanks to modern technology, we have developed innovative solutions that are characterised by their modern design and high heating efficiency.
1.5. Purpose cooker LEGNO type cookers provide an additional source of heat in the rooms in which they are located. They are equipped with fixed hearths, with manual fuel loading, closed with a standard (box) door. The main fuel is seasoned hardwood (beech, hornbeam, birch) with a moisture content of less than 20%.
Construction: The cooker is made of boiler steel grade P256GH, 3mm thick. The inside of the combustion chamber is lined with a ceramic insert to keep the heat 4. The design allows the flue gases to be led out through the upper or rear wall of the cooker.
▪ Unpack the cooker close to the installation site; take care when moving it (preferably with a trolley) (pay attention to the door and the glass); ▪ cooker packaging materials are not toxic or harmful; they should be recycled or stored by the user; ▪...

Recommendations for substrates: ▪ Before installing the cooker, check the load-bearing capacity of the floor (whether it meets the load- bearing conditions for the type of appliance depending on its weight);...

2.4. flue The cooker requires a suitable cross-section of the flue pipe (flue duct) and a suitable height of the flue pipe. The cross-sectional area of the flue and smoke duct is determined according to the formula: Where: F - cross-sectional area of the flue and smoke duct [m2]; Q - rated thermal output of the insert [kW];...
2.6. The flue pipe system should meet the following features: ▪ the cross-section of the flue pipe must not be smaller than that of the flue pipe and must not narrow towards the chimney (adapters may be used to increase the diameter from the flue pipe to the chimney); ▪...
2.7. Ventilation cooker: ▪ It is necessary to provide fresh air from outside by unsealing the windows so that there is a constant supply of air. Too little fresh air from outside can cause poor combustion (production of carbon monoxide) and, in the worst case scenario, air with carbon monoxide can backflow through the ventilation ducts when the windows are tightly closed and there is a risk of fume poisoning;...
▪ The cooker is a unitary structure and does not require additional supports; ▪ The height (levelling) of the cooker can be adjusted by means of the feet (a maximum of 20mm can be unscrewed); ▪ If it is necessary to raise the cooker above the feet adjustment, make a masonry base and place the appliance on it (do not remove the feet needed for levelling);...
normal load. The first ignition may be accompanied by condensation on the inner walls of the combustion chamber. This phenomenon is normal and results from condensation of the water vapour contained in the flue gases. It should disappear after the firebox has cooled down. If flue gas is escaping from the cooker chamber, adjust the flue damper setting and increase the chimney draught.
4.1. Types of fuel Due to the design of our equipment, the recommended fuel to be used is hardwood such as oak, hornbeam, ash, beech and birch. We particularly recommend birch. The best fuel is seasoned wood (at least 2 years in an airy and dry place), in cut and split billets.

4.4. Clean glass In addition to using the right fuel, keeping the glass clean is influenced by: ▪ to provide an adequate supply of combustion air; ▪ optimum chimney draught; ▪ how to operate the cooker; ▪ use of fuel with a moisture content of less than 20%. In order to keep the glass clean, it is advisable to add the recommended amount of fuel so that the fuel is central on the grate and as far away from the glass as possible.

NOTES: The manufacturer recommends that the ash pan should not be overfilled. The manufacturer recommends that the ash pan should not be overfilled. Overfilling the ash pan will reduce the air supply to the grate which will result in a decrease in combustion parameters and in extreme cases will make it impossible to light the cooker.
CONSERVATION In order to maintain safe and trouble-free operation of the unit, it is necessary to observe the following guidelines: ▪ perform periodic and timely maintenance - at least once a year an inspection of the cooker by a specialised service; ▪...
FAULTS AND ANOMALIES DURING OPERATION During everyday use of the cooker, the following operating anomalies may occur which are indicative of incorrect installation of the cooker without observing the relevant instructions in this Operating and Installation Guide and the applicable laws. 6.1.
