the operating handle at the front of the
stove. The secondary airflow is complet-
ely open when the handle is to the left
side position, fig. 1.
Shut off the secondary airflow gradually
by moving the handle to the right. The
supply is completely shut off when the
handle is to the right side position, fig. 2.
Lighting the stove
Place two pieces of wood on the bot-
tom. Stack kindling on top in layers
with air between. Setting fire starter
(bag, brick, paraffin) on the top, now
you are ready to light the fuel. The
flames must work from the top down.
The use of lighter fluid, oils
or any liquid fuels is strictly
forbidden from use in a wood
stove.
Fully open the combustion air and
leave the door ajar (about 1 cm open).
Once the fire is established and the
chimney is hot (after about 3-5 mi-
nutes) closed door and regulate the
air into operating position. We re-
commend, all of the first fuel is burned
with the combustion air fully open in
the operating position. This ensures
the stove and chimney are thoroughly
heated.

Refiring
You should normally refire the stove
while there is still a good layer of
embers. Distribute the embers across
the bottom grate, place pieces of fuel
(max. 2 kg) on the embers in a single
layer perpendicular to the firing opening.
Close the firing door and fully open the
start-up mechanism. The wood will then
ignite very quickly – i.e. in 30 seconds
or 1 minute. When the wood is burning
with a steady flame, close the start-up
mechanism. Then adjust the secondary
airflow to the level required. For nomi-
nal operation (6,1 kW), the secondary
air supply should be 38% open. When
firing, take care not to place the pieces
of fuel too close-ly together, as this will
result in poor combustion and insuffi-
cient exploitation of the fuel.
Reduced burning
The stove is well-suited to intermittent
use. If you wish to operate the stove
with reduced out-put, simply insert
smaller volumes of wood at each firing,
and apply a lower airflow. However,
remember that the secondary combu-
stion air supply must never be shut off
completely during firing. It is important
to keep a good bed of embers. Gentle
heat is released when the fire settles
- i.e. when the wood no longer genera-
tes flames and has been converted to
glowing embers.
Optimal firing
To achieve optimal firing and the highest
possible effect, it is important to make
sure that the air supply is used correctly.
As a general rule, the secondary air is to
be used to control the fire to ignite the
flue gases. This produces a high effect
and keeps the glass panel completely
clear of soot as the secondary air “wa-
shes” down over it. Please note that the
stove will, naturally, produce soot if both
the start-up mechanism and secondary
air intakes are closed completely. This
will prevent oxygen from being drawn
into the stove, and the viewing window
and other parts will become covered
with soot. If this situation is combined
with firing with wet wood, the build-up
