Lighting And Loading Intervals - Morso 2110 Installation And Operating Instructions Manual

In principle
Your stove is fitted with Primary and Secondary air inlets.
Primary Air is controlled using the lever situated under the ash lip of the stove. Moving the
control lever into a downward position will open the air inlet and will allow a supply of preheated
air to enter the firebox via the 'airwash' system situated inside the stove and the above glass.
Secondary Air is right to the firebox using the specially designed baffle at the back of the
firebox
The secondary air is injected into the flue gases both above and in front of the fire resulting in
a cleaner, more efficient combustion process. The supply of secondary air is fixed open and is
not adjustable.
For extra safety, your stove has been fitted with a removable handle. When not in use the handle
can be stored using the lug behind the right leg of the stove.

2.2 Lighting and loading intervals

When first lighting the stove, a large volume of air is needed. When the stove is cold, you should
leave the door open an inch or two for the first few minutes and open the primary air
supply completely. While the door is open, do not leave the stove unattended.
To form a reasonable bed of ash on the floor of the stove, you should use 5-6 inches thickness
(-4 pound) of dry kindling at the initial lighting. Always maintain a -.5 inch (- cm) layer of
ash on the floor of the combustion chamber at all other times.
Step-by-step procedure
. The air supply must be fully open.
. Light the fire. An ember bed will quickly be formed by lighting with firelighters, morsø kindling
bags or 7-0 pieces of twisted paper under the dry kindling wood (see above).
. After lighting, partially close the doors, leaving them open an inch or two to allow in plenty
of combustion air.
4. When the chimney is warmed through after 5-0 minutes, the doors should be closed. A
suitable ember bed will be formed after a further 5-0 minutes.
5. When ready to reload, use a poker to spread the ember across the firebox floor, bringing
plenty towards the front of the stove.
6. Lay three pieces of wood (see dimensions above) onto the embers. Leave half an inch (
cm) or more between each piece. When using 0 inches (5 cm) logs, place the ends of
your logs towards the opening, but not too close to the front.
