Combustion air slide valve
Operating lever for combustion air supply
● Operating lever on „0":
all slide valves closed
● Operating lever on „I":
Secondary slide valve completely open /
Primary air slide valve completely closed
● Operating lever on „II":
Secondary slide valve completely open /
Primary air slide valve completely open
Regulation of combustion air
Position of operating lever:
„II" ..Ignition position, max. heat output
"I" - "II" ..Nominal heat output with lignite briquettes
„I" ...Nominal heat output with billet wood
„I" ...Nominal heat output with wood briquettes
„0" ..Obtain glow
● As the secondary air also contributes to the cleanli-
ness of the glass pane, the operating lever should be
set on "I" minimum. This also applies in the event of
low-load operation.
● When not operating the lever should be set on "0", to
reduce the cooling down of the room.
Fire grate
Operating lever for the fire grate
● With the help of the operating lever the fire grate can
be opened or closed to move the ash from the com-
bustion chamber to the ash pan by pushing the fire
grate back and forth.
● Primary air can only enter the combustion chamber
if the fire grate is set on open position.
Heating
● Only place the quantity of fuel required to achieve
the heating requirement.
For a nominal heating output 5 kW:
- max. 1,5 kg billet wood
- max. 1,3 kg wood briquettes
- max. 2 lignite briquettes
For max. heat output allowed:
- max. 3 kg billet wood
- max. 3 kg wood briquettes
- max. 4 lignite briquettes
● Open the combustion chamber door slowly after
adding new fuel, as otherwise the combustion gas-
es can escape.
● Empty the ash pan or combustion chamber in good
time. Otherwise it is possible for the combustion air
intake to be blocked or for the grate to be damaged.
● Only remove the ash pan to empty it.
● Clean the ash pan compartment regularly after re-
moving the ash pan to remove any ash that may
have been spilled (e.g. use a vacuum cleaner).
Attention: Any stove and ash residues must have
been left to cool before being removed.
Heating during the transition period
Prerequisite for the stove to function well is the correct
delivery pressure (chimney draught). This very much
depends on the external temperature. Therefore, if the
external temperatures are high (above 16°C) the deliv-
ery pressure can be disrupted.
What to do?
● Open the combustion air slide valve complete.
● Only put on a small quantity of fuel.
● Frequently stoke the ash.
