    The stove is designed to be used for indoor heating. The heat is diffused by radiation through the panoramic glass and the parts of the stove made of cast iron. Parts of the stove are made of cast iron, and the hearth is equipped with a panoramic door with heat resistant glass.

  • Page 5: The Flue

    3.2 Installation The installation of the stove must be carried out by qualified people who are aware of the safety measures regarding the stove installation. A badly installed stove can cause serious accidents (chimney fires, burning of insulating materials, etc). 3.3 Lighting the stove for the first time The first time the stove is lit, there will be smoke and odor given off due to the drying of the protective color.

The surrounding objects must not cover the flue. The dimensions of the chimney may vary on the basis of the model of flue.

    Try to avoid too many curves and horizontal sections; if this is impossible, ensure that there is always a slope of at least 2/3 cm per linear metre as compensation. The same flue must never be used for more than one appliance. Do not decrease the flue section by positioning the pipe connecting the stove and the flue too deep in the flue.

  • Page 8: Cleaning Of The Stove

    evaporate the water, which is up to 75% in young wood without bark. To obtain dry wood (15%-20% humidity) you must cut the weak wood (in winter) to the desired length and cut it again in pieces with a maximum diameter of 8-15 cm. You must then put them in a ventilated shelter for at least 2 years (4 for oak, the first with exposure to the rain to eliminate the tannin).

  • Page 9: Consumables

    When cleaning the outside surfaces of the stove, avoid abrasive products which would damage the protective paint. Do not use chemicals that contain diluent, because the cast parts are protected by heat resistant paint.

  • Page 10: Technical Description

    The stove is suitable to heat living spaces or to support an insufficient centralized heating system. As fuel, it is possible to use wood logs. The stove is made of cast iron and steel plates. The hearth is internally sheathed with single sheet in cast iron and inside it there is a rotatable and extractable grate. The hearth is equipped with a panoramic door with glass (resistant up 700 °C).

    adjusted. The stove can be attached from the back or through the heating plate. 10.2 PRIMARY air control With the regulator on the stove door, the passage of air through the ash drawer and the grate in the fuel direction is adjusted. The primary air is necessary for the combustion process. The ash drawer must be regularly emptied, so that the ash does not obstruct the primary air entry.

  • Page 12: Fire Safety

    You should provide sufficient air entrance for the combustion in the installation place. The diameter of the opening for the connection must correspond at least to the diameter of the smokes pipe (Ø120 mm). The opening must be equipped with a wall connection for the reception of the exhaust pipe. Before installation, verify if your floor can support the weight of the stove, and in case that the bearing capacity of the floor is insufficient perform measures for increasing the capacity.

    c) Extinguish the fire using carbon dioxide fire-fighting means (CO2 dust); d) Seek immediate intervention of FIRE BRIGADE. DO NOT EXTINGUISH FIRE USING WATER JETS. When the fire has been extinguished, let the flue be checked by an expert to find possible cracks and permeable points.

    ATTENTION: the continuous and protracted use of aromatic wood (eucalyptus, myrtle etc.) quickly damages the cast iron parts of the product. 15. LIGHTING IMPORTANT: The first time that the appliance is lit, there will be an odor given off which disappears after a short use.
  • Page 15 and avoid abrupt heating with excessive loads. To light the fire, it is suggested using small wood pieces together with paper or other traded lighting means. It is FORBIDDEN to use any liquid substance as for ex. alcohol, gasoline, oil and similar. Operation with wood: Open the primary and secondary air control and lit the fire.

  • Page 16: Operation In Transition Periods

    17. OPERATION IN TRANSITION PERIODS During transition periods when the external temperatures are higher, or if there is a sudden increase of temperature it can happen that the combustion gases inside the flue cannot be completely sucked out. The exhaust gases do not come out completely (intense smell of gas). In this case, shake the grating more frequently and increase the air for the combustion.
  • Page 17 If you want to preserve the aesthetic appearance of the stove, it is important to protect its inner walls made of cast iron with neutral Vaseline. We hope that you have read this instruction thoroughly and that you will not have any problems while using the stove.
