4.7 Use
• Push the ignition vent all the way to the left (fi g. 28). Open
the air vent (fi g. 28) by pushing it to the right. (Use a glove,
for example, as the handle can become hot.).
Fig. 29
• Place two medium sized logs in/out on each side of the
base. N.B. In order to avoid sooting on the glass, it is
important that the log is not placed adjacent to the glass
on the product.
• Crumple some newspaper (or birch bark) between these
and add some kindling wood in a criss-cross pattern on top
and light the newspaper.
• Gradually increase the size of the fi re, but the wood should
not be stacked higher than the horizontal holes on the back
burn plate. See fi g. 28 C.
• Finally, place a medium-sized log on the top of the pile.
• Place 2 or 3 briquettes or kindling sticks under the top layer
of kindling and light the fi re.
• NB: The maximum height of the pile of the wood
should be just below the horizontal holes. The holes
must not be covered.
• Check that the afterburning (secondary combustion) starts.
This is best indicated by yellow, fl ickering fl ames under the
baffl e.
• Then regulate the rate of combustion to the desired level of
heating by adjusting the air vent (fi g. 28).
• Close the stove door. It must always be closed when the
fi re is lit.
Adding fi rewood
Stoke the stove frequently but only add small amounts of fuel
at a time. If the stove is fi lled too full, the heat created may
cause extreme stress in the chimney. Add fuel to the fi re in
moderation. Avoid smouldering fi res as this produces the most
pollution. The fi re is best when it is burning well and the smoke
from the chimney is almost invisible.
4.7 Danger of overheating
The fi replace must never be used in a manner that causes
overheating.
Overheating occurs when there is too much fuel and/or too
much air so that too much heat develops. A sure sign of
overheating is when parts of the fi replace glow red. If this
happens, reduce the air vent opening immediately.
Seek professional advice if you suspect that the chimney is
not drawing properly (too much/too little draught). For further
information, see «4.4 Chimney and fl ue pipe»
5.2 Ash removal
Jøtul F 130 has an ash pan which makes it easy to remove the
ashes.
• Only remove ashes when the fi replace is cold.
• Push/pull the handle for the ash grate/ignition vent out and
in several times so that the ashes fall down into the ash
pan. Use something like a glove to grab the handle on the
ash pan.
• Make sure that the ash pan doesn’t fi ll up so high that it
keeps ash from coming through the grate into the pan.
5.0 Daily use
Odours when using the fi replace for the fi rst time
When the fi replace is used for the fi rst time, it may emit an
irritating gas which may smell slightly. This happens because
the paint dries.The gas is not toxic but the room should be
thoroughly ventilated. Let the fi re burn with a high draught
until all traces of the gas have disappeared and no smoke or
odours can be detected.
Heating advice
NB: Logs that have been stored outdoors or in a cold room
should be brought indoors 24 hours before use to bring them
up to room temperature.
There are various ways of heating the stove but it is always
important to be careful about what you put in the stove. See
the section on “Wood quality”.
Wood quality
By quality wood we mean most well-known types of wood such
as birch, spruce and pine.
The logs should be dried so that the moisture content is no
more than 20%.
To achieve this, the logs should be cut during the late winter.
They should be split and stacked in a way that ensures good
ventilation. The wood stacks should be covered to protect the
logs from rain. The logs should be brought indoors during early
autumn and stacked/stored for use in the coming winter.
Be especially careful never to use the following
materials as fuel in your fi replace:
• Household rubbish, plastic bags, etc.
• Painted or impregnated timber (which is extremely toxic).
• Laminated wooden planks.
• Driftwood
These may harm the product and are also pollutants.
NB: Never use petrol, paraffi n, methylated spirit or similar
liquids to light the fi re. You may cause serious injury to
yourself and damage to the product.
