Before using the wood-burning stove
It is important that you ensure the following:
That all of the wood-burning stove’s individual components are in place.
That the chimney has been approved by your local chimney sweep.
That fresh air can be supplied to the room in which the wood-burning stove is to be installed.
Some things worth knowing about fuels
Permitted fuel types
The wood-burning stove is only EN/NS-approved for ring with wood. Using dry wood with a
maximum water content of 20% is recommended. Firing with wet wood results in soot, environ-
mental strain and poor fuel efciency.
Test: You can test whether your wood is dry enough by pouring a bit of liquid detergent on one
end of a piece of split rewood and blowing on the other end. If the wood is dry enough, you
will be able to see the detergent bubble up.
Recommended wood types
All types of wood, such as birch, beech, oak, elm, ash, coniferous and fruit trees can be used as fuel
in your wood-burning stove. The big difference is found not in the heat value, but in the wood’s weight
per cubic meter. As beech weighs more per cubic meter of wood than common spruce (e.g.), more
common spruce must be added to provide the same amount of warmth the beech provides.
Prohibited fuel types
Firing with the following is prohibited: Printed matter • Plastic • Rubber • Chipboards • Liquid
fuels • Waste, such as milk cartons and the like • Lacquered, painted or impregnated wood.
The reason why you cannot re with the abovementioned is that, during combustion, unhealthy
and environmentally damaging substances are created. These substances can also damage
your wood-burning stove, which will result in the guarantee being voided.
Firing with coal or coke
The WIKING Olympic is not designed for ring with coal and coke.
Storing wood
Water content of maximum 20% is achieved by storing the wood for at least one year - preferably two
years - outdoors, beneath a shed roof. Wood that is stored indoors tends to become too dry and burn
too quickly; though kindling is best when stored indoors a couple of days before being used.
Recommended dimensions
The fuel’s dimensions are important for good combustion, and should be as follows:
Fuel type Length in cm Diameter in cm
Kindling (nely split rewood) 25-33 2-5
Split rewood 25-33 7-9
