Air controller

Primary air controller
● Primary air controller pulled out → OPEN
● Secondary air controller pulled out → OPEN

Regulation of combustion air

Primary air controller
OPEN ....Ignition adjustment and max. heating output
OPEN ....Nominal heat output with lignite briquettes
CLOSED .... Nominal heat output with billet wood
CLOSED .... glow
Secondary air controller
OPEN ....Ignition adjustment and max. heating output
CLOSED .... Nominal heat output with lignite briquettes
OPEN ....Nominal heat output with billet wood
CLOSED .... glow
● As the secondary air also contributes to the cleanli-
ness of the glass pane, the secondary air controller
must always be moved in the direction of the open
position while the stove is lit.
● When not operating all controllers should be closed,
to reduce the cooling down of the room.
As the performance of your stove is very much depend-
ent on the chimney draught, the primary air controller
has to be adjusted according to your own experience.
Please note that you should not use your stove if there
is not an adequate air supply (slide valve setting too
low), as this causes the emissions to increase.
Secondary air controller

Heating

● Only place the quantity of fuel required to achieve
the heating requirement.
For a nominal heating output 5,0 kW:
- max. 1,6 kg billet wood; burning time >45 min
­ max. 2,5 lignite briquettes; burning time >60 min
For max. heat output allowed:
- max. 3 kg billet wood
­ max. 6 lignite briquettes
● Open the combustion chamber door slowly for add-
ing new fuel, as otherwise the combustion gases 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 primary air controller complete.
● Only put on a small quantity of fuel.
● Frequently stoke the ash.
