ATTENTION!!
After normal cleaning, INCORRECT attachment of the upper part of the crucible (A) (fig. 1) with the lower part of the
crucible (B) (fig. 1) can compromise stove functioning.
Therefore, before igniting the stove, make sure that the two parts of the crucible are correctly attached as indicated in (fig.
2) without any ash or unburnt fuel on the contact edges.
We remind you that using the stove without cleaning the melting pot, may cause a sudden ignition gas inside the combus-
tion chamber with the consequent breaking of the glass
