4.2 HEATING-UP / FIRING
Lighting your stove is very easy if you follow the instructions below. We recom-
mend the so-called upper burn-up because it is low-emission and causes less
smoke and therefore less dirt in the combustion chamber and on view pane.
1. The stove must only be fuelled with correctly inserted combustion chamber
liner.
2. Move the combustion air regulator to position "heating up" (A) and open
the fire door (swing open).
3. Place two split logs into the combustion chamber and place smaller soft-
wood kindling.
4. Place commercial firelighter cubes on
the wood to assist with igniting the fire.
(Paper is not recommended because it
burns too quickly and causes ash flight).
5. Methylated spirits, gasoline, oil or
other readily flammable liquids must not be
used.
6. Light the fire at the firelighter cubes and
leave the fire door open about 3 - 5 cm. The fire should now ignite brightly
and burn intensely.
7. When the kindling is burning well, add smaller hardwood logs or larger
softwood logs in layers.
8. Once the firewood is burning well, close the door; actuating level remains
in right-hand position (air supply open), this should usually stay in that
position for 10 - 20 minutes to bring the fireplace insert up to operating
temperature.
9. For more details about the correct wood feed quantity, see the section
Wood feed quantity per hour ("4.2.2 Wood feed quantity per hour").
10. Once the wood has started burning fully, wood can be added as required
(ideal hardwood).
11. Depending on the weather conditions, set the actuating lever to approx-
imately the centre position. This always depends on experience and on
prevailing conditions on location.
12. Do not open the door forcefully or gases may enter your living room
through a suddenly produced negative pressure. At first, open the door
slowly and only a bit.
13. Putting fresh firewood onto hot embers you prevent the possible release of
smoke when the door is opened.
14. Never repeatedly put more than the recommended amount onto the fire.
15. If your chimney “draught” is too strong, the fire blazes strongly even
if only slight secondary air is supplied. Find the optimal position for
controlled combustion by shifting the controller. The further you slide the
air controller towards 'Air inlet closed', the less air you are directing into
the combustion chamber. Ensure that you do not restrict the airflow too
far, causing the fire to go out ("4.3. Controlling heat output").
4.2.1 ADDING WOOD
Fuel can only be added when the fuel has been burned down to embers.
1. Open the air intake completely.
2. Open the fire door very slowly (use heat protective glove!), so that no
turbulence can arise that favours smoldering.
3. Place the wood logs on the embers (bark facing upwards, cut ends to
either side). Make sure that the air supply is open! Embers must not be
smothered).
4. Close the fire door (Use a heat-resistant glove!)
5. The actuating lever should remain fully open for 2-5 minutes. Only
change this position of the actuating lever once the wood has started
burning fully. Then, set the actuating lever in approximately the centre
position.
The end of the burning process is achieved when the wood has burned
completely, and no smoldering or incomplete combustion can occur. Now
the lever can be closed. If the stove is not in operation, then always move
the regulator to the position air supply closed.
