7. MANUAL OPERATION
Operating the riddle grate
(only stoves with riddle grate)
The ash is moved from the combustion chamber to the ash drawer by pushing
the riddle grate handle back and forth. This frees the way for the primary air
intake which is necessary for heating up.
In general the riddle grate should stay open. The air regulation is made
completely with the control knob at the rear wall.
Combustion air regulation
The control knob for combustion air regulation is situated on the rear wall.
The performance of your stove also depends on the chimney draught; therefore
the control knob must be used according to your own experience.
zero setting
0% secondary air
0% primary air
ideal position
33-66% secondary air
0% primary air
middle position
100% secondary air
0% primary air
Heating-up position
100% secondary air
100% primary air
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.
A stop to prevent inadvertent closing of the air intake has been integrated for
safety reasons.
If the stove is not in use, warm air can release through the chimney. The Zero
position of the control knob can prevent this. To prevent air intake completely,
the control knob must be pressed back slightly, only then the zero position can
be set and the air regulator thus be closed.
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.
Correct heating up
1. Press the control knob down into “Heating-up position” – primary and
secondary air intakes are opened completely. Open the combustion chamber
door and sweep the ashes into the ashtray. Then open the riddle grate
completely (only stoves with riddle grate).
Place 2 small pieces of chipboard lengthways left and right in the bottom of the
combustion chamber.
Place 2 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.
If the combustible is well lit, set the control knob to middle position some
minutes later. The primary air intake is now closed and the secondary air
intake is completely open. The control knob can be set to ideal position (see
COMBUSTION AIR REGULATION) another few minutes later (depending on
draught and fuel quality / amount).
After the first burn-off, again add 2 logs (see AMOUNT OF FUEL). Set the control
knob 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.
