3. Fully open the upper air controler so
that the primary air supply can enter the
firebox
5. After 5-10 minutes the chimney draft
should be established, at this point close
the fire door. If all the necessary conditions
are met, a nice layer of embers will start to
accumulate after another 15-20 minutes.
7. Place 3-4 pieces of fuel weighing roughly
4-6 lb. across the embers in one layer,
with spacing of roughly 1 inch between the
pieces of wood.

4. After the paper/fire lighters have
caught fire, leave the fire door ajar about
1 inch, so that the chimney draws well
6. Refuelling of your stove should be done
while there are still glowing embers in the
bed. Spread the embers across the bottom,
but concentrated mostly towards the front
of the stove
8. When the primary air supply (upper
controler) is open all the way and the door
is closed, the new fuel will ignite in a few
minutes
9. Once the new fuel has taken, adjust the
primary air amount to the desired setting;
optimal combustion will continue until
glowing embers are produced.
Do not for any reason attempt to increase the firing of your heater by altering the air
control adjustment range outlined in these directions.
Warning: Fireplace stoves must never be left unattended with doors open.
If the door is left partly open, gas and flame may be drawn out of the fireplace stove
opening, creating risks from both fire and smoke. We recommend you to fit a smoke detector
in the room where the stove is installed.
DO NOT OVERFIRE THIS HEATER. Overfiring may cause a house fire, or can result in
permanent damage to the stove. If any part of the stove glows, you are overfiring.
The maximum recommended weight of wood fuel per load is 2.5 kg/h/5.5Ibs (approx 3 split
logs).
Under normal firing, the average flue temperature in the stove pipe, measured 20 cm above
the stove, is approx. 300° C (550°F). The maximum flue temperature in the stove pipe must not
exceed 450° C (750°F). If the flue temperature exceeds 450°C (750°F), it is considered as over
firing and may cause premature wear and tear of the stove.
To help gauge the correct running temperature of your stove, we recommend you use the
Morsø Flue Gas Thermometer (part # 62901200). The Flue Gas Thermometer magnetically at-
taches onto the stove pipe approx 20 cm (8") above the stove's top plate and measures the sur-
face temperature of the stove pipe. Please see your authorized Morsø Dealer for availability.
10. A new charge of wood can be added by
repeating steps 6 & 7.
