4.3. Burning wood

The best way to control the fire is to completely close the lower air slide, which you

use to get the fire started, and to regulate the air supply with the upper air slide

only. In case the air supply through the upper slide seems insufficient, or if you

would like to fan the fire, you can partially open the lower air slide for a while.

Always keep the stove door tightly closed. Never let the door open when the fire is

burning.

Add extra fuel when necessary.

Never add too much fuel. It is

best to fill the stove for one third

and to top it up on a regular ba-

sis.

Always open the filling door

slowly and for a short space of

time. Before filling up, the char-

coal bed should be carefully

spread open. Check whether the

coals are glowing enough just

behind the log retainer, so that

the added fuel will immediately

catch fire. If necessary you can

open the lower air slide for a

while.

Open stacking will make the logs burn very intensely, as the oxygen can easily reach

every part of the fire. This method of stacking is applied when burning wood for a

short while. Compact stacking will make the fire burn slower, as the air can only

reach the outer parts of the fire. This stacking method is best used when burning for

a longer while.

Low intensity fires cause tar and creosote to deposit in the chimney after a long

period of time. Tar and creosote are highly combustible substances. Thicker layers

of these substances might catch fire when the temperature in the chimney increases

suddenly and steeply. Therefore it is necessary for the fire to regularly burn very

intensely, so that thin layers of tar and creosote immediately disappear.

Low intensity fires also cause tar to deposit on the stove panels and doors.

When it is not too cold outside it is better to let the stove burn intensely for just a

few hours a day.

4.4. Ash removal

The bottom of the fire compart-

ment is equipped with a port to

eliminate the ashes. Open the

port (see picture) and sweep the

redundant ashes into the ashtray

by means of the scraper. With the

"cold handle", you can pull the

ashtray from the stove (see pic-

ture).
