Burning brown coal
briquettes
Brown coal briquettes burn in almost the same way as
wood. Using the primary air inlet, ensure sufficient
supply of air under the fire. For further information see
the paragraph "Burning wood".
Burning brown coal briquettes creates a lot of ash.
Regularly remove excess ash. See the paragraph
"Removing ashes" for instructions.
For the properties and use of brown coal
briquettes: consult your brown coal briquettes
supplier or see the brown coal briquettes'
packaging.
After you have followed the instructions for lighting:
1. Slowly open the door of the appliance.
2. Spread out the charcoal bed evenly across the
bottom of the fire compartment.
3. Place the brown coal briquettes on the charcoal
bed.
4. Close the door.
Burning anthracite coal
Use a coal basket to keep the anthracite coal in; see
following figure. The coal bin is available as an option.
Always close the secondary air slide when
burning anthracite coal.
Open the fire grate by pulling the riddling rod
forward.
After you have followed the instructions for lighting:
1. Open the primary air slide completely.
2. Slowly open the door of the appliance.
3. Spread out the charcoal bed evenly across the
bottom of the fire compartment.
4. Spread a shovelful of coal on the charcoal bed and
wait with the next shovelful until the coals start to
glow.
5. Now add more coal.
Be careful not to smother the fire by adding too
much coal at once.
You have added as much as you can once the
glow of the previous load is only just visible.
6. Close the door.
7. Allow the coal to burn for 20-30 minutes and
regulate the air supply with the primary slide.
8. Use the riddling rod to shake the grate until
glowing embers drop into the ashpan.
9. Open the primary air slide completely.
10. Add fresh coal up to the maximum load.
Make sure the grate is open by pulling the
riddling rod forward.
11. After a few minutes, move the primary air slide to
the desired position.
If the coal basket gets red hot, you are stoking
the fire too hard.
Controlling the air
The appliance has several options for air regulations.
The primary air slide regulates the air below grid.
The secondary air slide regulates the air for the glass
(air wash).
Advice
Never burn wood with an open door.
Regularly burn wood with intense roaring fires.
If you frequently have low intensity fires, tar
and creosote may be deposited in the chimney.
Tar and creosote are highly combustible
