6. MANUAL OPERATION
Note
For the operation of Rikatronic4 please see the enclosed manual
(Only for stoves with Rikatronic4)
Combustion air regulation
The performance of your stove also depends on the chimney
draught; therefore the control knob for combustion air regulation
must be used according to your own experience.
The primary air intake is absolutely necessary for heating up. The
“heating-up position“ may only be used for heating up.
Note
The air control seals to 100%. Complete closing of the air regulator
(zero setting of control knob) during operation poses a hazard of
deflagration and is strictly prohibited.
If the stove is not in use, warm air can release through the chimney.
The zero position of the control knob can prevent this.
Depending on model:
To prevent air intake completely, the control handle behind the air
control knob must be pulled to the front, only then the zero position
can be set and the air regulator thus be closed.
RIKA firelighter
Always ignite the RIKA firelighter on the red tip. One block consists
out of 8 ribs which can be divided to the desired size. The amount
of RIKA firelighters also depends on the size and humidity of your
firewood. Ideally, one rib is enough to light up the fire.
Tip
You can order the RIKA firelighter with the number E15834 at your
RIKA dealer.
Correct heating up
1. Press the control knob completely into “heating-up position” –
primary and secondary air intakes are opened completely in the
heating-up position. Open the combustion chamber door and
sweep the ashes into the ashtray.
Place left and right two small pieces of chipboard lengthways in the
bottom of the combustion chamber.
Place two logs crossways on top of this chipboard.
2. Now place further pieces of chipboard in crosswise layers on top
of the logs and place 2-4 ribs of the RIKA-firelighter on the left on top
of the chipboard. Some uncoated paper can be placed underneath
the chipboard in case there is no firelighter available.
3. Now light the firelighter (or the uncoated paper) and close
the combustion chamber door. “Correct heating up” primarily
counteracts excessive smoke during heating up.
Set the control knob for combustion air regulation to middle position
some minutes later. The primary air intake is now closed and the
secondary air intake is completely open. The control can be set to
ideal position another few minutes later (depending on draught and
fuel quality / amount).
After the first burn-off, again add two logs (see AMOUNT OF FUEL).
Set the control to “heating-up position” again until the wood is well
lit. Further regulation is effected as described in Item 3.
Please proceed in the same way for every further addition of wood.
Note
Sometimes a lot of smoke develops when wood is placed on a
low firebed or when there is too less fresh air for combustion. An
explosive gas/air mixture may arise and cause an eventual heavy
deflagration. For safety reasons it is recommended to leave the
combustion chamber door closed and press the control knob at
the rear wall down completely into “heating-up position”. If the
log wood is not igniting, start a new heating-up procedure after it
stopped smoking.
