The stove door should normally be opened gently the rst 2 - 3 centimetres, then you should
wait until the pressure has equalised before opening the door all the way. This technique will
prevent smoke from getting out, particularly when there is a poor draught.
The stove door should never be opened when the stove is being red vigorously.
Once the wood has burned out, it becomes glowing charcoal. If a good layer of embers has
already formed on top of a sucient layer of ash, the stove can keep warm for a very long
time, not least due to the favourable qualities of the cast iron.
We would strongly recommend that you do not leave your stove alit at night. It
harms the environment and constitutes very poor use of the wood as the gases
in the wood do not ignite at the low temperature, but settle as soot (unburned
gases) in the chimney and stove. Extreme conditions, such as poor draught in the
chimney, large quantities of wood or wet wood, may in the worst-case scenario
cause an explosive ignition.
When ring in the summer period, when there is minimal need for heat, the combustion
will be poor. The stove provides too much heat so the combustion should be reduced.
But always remember to make sure that there are lasting ames until the wood be-
comes charcoal. If you want a weaker re, stoke up using less wood.
If you re the stove using wet wood, a lot of the fuel’s thermal energy will be spent
forcing the water out of the wood, without releasing any heat to the stove. This
incomplete combustion results in a layer of soot being left in the stove, pipe and
chimney.

5. Refuelling of your stove should be done while there are
still glowing embers in the bed. Spread the embers across
the bottom, but concentrated mostly towards the front of
the stove.
6. Place three pieces of fuel weighing roughly 0.7 kg and meas-
uring about 30 cm in length across the embers in one layer, with
spacing of roughly 1 cm between the pieces of wood.
7. When the primary air supply is opened all the way and
the door is closed, the new fuel will ignite in a few minutes.
8. Once the new fuel has taken, adjust the secondary air
amount to the desired setting; optimal combustion will
continue until glowing charcoals are produced.
Make sure that there is always enough air (oxygen) to main-
tain clear, lasting ames when, and after, reducing the amount
of combustion air.
Under normal chimney draft conditions, expect to refuel
your stove every 70 - 80 minutes.
10. A new charge of wood can be added by repeating steps
5 & 6.
Important!
It is important that the fresh quantity of wood starts
to burn quickly. To ensure the fuel lights quickly, open
the combustion air to max. or leave the door ajar to
allow in the amount of air needed to light the wood.
If, however, the wood only smoulders, there will be a
strong build-up of smoke, which at worst can cause
an explosive ignition of the ue gases with the risk
of material damage and personal injury.
