5. OPERATION
LIGHTING THE FIRE
In order to keep exhaust emissions as low as pos-
sible, we would ask you to keep to the following
starting instructions.
1. If the stove and chimney are still cold or if there
is atmospheric low pressure, then burning
some paper at the start is recommended, in
order to “drive” the cold out of the stove and
chimney.
To start heating first lay uncoated paper on the
floor of the grate, on top of that add 0.5 kg soft
wood chips and 1 kg wood (3 small billets)
Pull the shaker grate handle (Fig. 2, Part II) out
completely and open the primary air slide (Fig.
2, Part I) and secondary air slide (Fig. 2, Part III)
ASH DRAWER
The ash drawer must be emptied regularly to
prevent excessive heating of the fire grid.
OPERATING THE SHAKER GRATE
The ash is transferred from the fire to the ash
drawer by moving the shaker grate handle back
and forth. This frees up room for the primary
feed air that is required for the heating phase in
the stove.

2.
Now light the paper. Wait until the soft
wood chips are burning well.
Close the shaker grat
e handle and the
primary air slide a few minutes later. Set the
secondary air slide to the ideal setting a few
minutes later.
3. After this has burned, lay approx 1.6 kg
wood (2 billets) on the fir
e. Open the
shaker grate handle and the primary air
slide until the wood is burning well (approx.
2 mins). The secondary air slide remains in
the ideal set
ting.
Proceed in the same manner for each furt
her layer.
4. The mineral parts of the wood (approx. 1%)
remain on the bottom of the grat
e as
combustion residue.
Because it is a natural product this ash is an
excellent fertiliser for all plants in the
garden. However the ash should be left to
settle beforehand and doused with water.
Please do not use glossy paper or paper from
magazines. It does not burn well and the print
colours produce very poisonous substances in
the flue gas.
Never heat the stove with the ash drawer open
-> danger of overheating -> loss of warranty.
Caution: Embers could remain in the ash.
Empty the ash into non-flammable containers
and do not place the ash drawer on flammable
surfaces.
