LIGHTING

IMPORTANT: the first time that the appliance is lit, there will be an odour given off (due to the drying of the
adhesives of the junction chord), which disappears after a short use. It must be ensured, in any case, a good
ventilation of the environment. Upon the first ignition we suggest loading a reduced quantity of fuel and
slightly increasing the calorific value of the equipment.
To perform a correct first lighting of the products treated with paints for high temperature, it is necessary to
know the following information:
•  the construction materials of the involved products are not homogeneous, as matter of fact there are
simultaneously parts in cast iron, steel, refractory material and majolica;
•  the temperature to which the body of the product is subject is not homogeneous: from area to area,variable
temperatures within the range of 300°C - 500 °C are detected;
•
 during its life, the product is subject to alternated lighting and extinguishing cycles in the same day, as well
as to cycles of intense use or of absolute standstill when season changes;
•
 the new appliance, before being considered seasoned has to be subject to many start cycles to allow all
materials and paints to complete the various elastic stresses;
•  in detail, initially it is possible to remark the emission of smells typical of metals subject to great thermal
stress, as well as of wet paint. This paint, although during the manufacture it is backed at 250 °C fo r some
hours, must exceed many times and for a given period of time the temperature of 350 °C before becoming
completely embedded in the metallic surfaces.
Therefore, it is extremely relevant to take these easy steps during the lighting:
1) Make sure that a strong air change is assured in the room where the appliance is installed.
2) During the first starts, do not load excessively the combustion chamber (about half the quantity indicated in
the instructions manual) and keep the product continuously ON for at least 6-10 hours with the registers less
open than the value indicated in the instructions manual.
3) Repeat this operation for at least 4-5 or more times, according to your possibilities.
4) Then load more and more fuel (following in any case the provisions contained in the installation booklet
concerning maximum load) and, if possible, keep the lighting periods long avoiding, at least in this initial
phase, short ON/OFF cycles.
5) During the first starts, no object should be leaned on the appliance and in detail on enamelled
surfaces. Enamelled surfaces must not be touched during heating.
6) Once the «break-in» has been completed, it is possible to use the product as the motor of a car, avoiding
abrupt heating with excessive loads.
To light the fire, it is suggested to use small wood pieces together with paper or other traded lighting means.
It is forbidden to use any liquid substance as for ex. alcohol, gasoline, oil and similar.
The primary air register has to be opened, so lever completely pulled out (Picture 2- 1A ). When wood starts to burn, it
is possible to feed it again, close the primary air control (completely pushed to the back) control the combustion
through the secondary air register (Picture 2 - 2A ) according to the provisions of chap. 10.
Please always be present during this phase.
Never overload the appliance (see the technical table - max. quantity of fuel that can be loaded / hourly
consumption .
Too much fuel and too much air for combustion can cause overheating and therefore damage the same.

NORMAL OPERATION

For safety reasons the door of the appliances with constructive system 1, must be opened only for the loading of the
fuel or for removing the ashes, while during the operation and
The appliances with constructive system 2 must be connected to their own flue. The operating with open door is
allowed under supervision.
IMPORTANT : For safety reasons the door of the hearth can be opened only for the loading of the fuel. The
hearth door must always remain closed during operation or rest .
ATTENTION : In order to avoid the breaking of temperate glass found on the top part of the stove, please do
not put on any object. The breaking of the glasses can be only caused by mechanical shocks (crashes
or exceeding load.). As consequence their substitution is not covered by the guarantee .
The nominal power of the appliance is of kW 6 – 8 – 9. This power will be reached with a minimum depression in the
chimney of 12 – 14 Pascal (=1.2 – 1.4 mm of water column).
With the registers located on the front of the appliance (Picture 2), it is possible to adjust the heat emission of the
same. They have to be opened according to the calorific need. The best combustion (with minimum emissions) is
reached when, by loading the wood, most part of the air for combustion flows through the secondary air register.

the rest, the door of the hearth must remain closed.
