ENGLISH RAIS manual for Rais Rondo 92 & Rondo 120 Convection Rais stoves are convection stoves. This means that the stove’s back and side panels are not overheated. Convection means that there is a circulation of air, which ensures that the heat is distributed more evenly throughout the entire room. The cold air is sucked in at the base of the stove and up through the convection channel, which runs along the stove’s combustion chamber.

These instructions cover the basic principles of installation, although some details may need slight modification to suit particular local site conditions.
ENGLISH RAIS manual for Rais Rondo 92 & Rondo 120 Chimney The chimney is the driving force which makes the stove function. In order for the stove to perform satisfactorily the chimney height must be sufficient to ensure the correct draught of 14 to 18 Pa, so as to clear the products of combustion and prevent problems of smoke leaking into the room when the stove is lit. Note: A chimney height of not less than 4.
ENGLISH RAIS manual for Rais Rondo 92 & Rondo 120 If it is found that there is excessive draught in the chimney then either an adjustable flue damper or alternatively a draught stabiliser should be fitted. The adjustable flue damper should not close off the flue entirely, but should in its closed position leave a minimum continuous opening free area of at least 20 % of the total cross sectional area of the flue or fluepipe. Adequate provision e.g.

ENGLISH RAIS manual for Rais Rondo 92 & Rondo 120 Drying and storage Drying wood takes time: proper air drying takes approximately 2 years. Here are some tips: Store the wood sawn, split and stacked in an airy, sunny place, which is protected against rain (the south side of the house is particularly suitable). Store the firewood stacks at a hand's breadth apart, as this ensures that the air flowing through takes the moisture with it.
ENGLISH RAIS manual for Rais Rondo 92 & Rondo 120 Using the wood burning stove Adjusting the air damper. The damper has 3 settings. Position 1 The damper is almost closed meaning that there is a minimal air intake. Position 2 Push the lever to the right until it stops. This position gives full secondary air. During normal use the lever is set between position 1 and 2. When the flames are clear and yellow, the damper is set correctly, i.e. resulting in a slow/optimal burning.
ENGLISH RAIS manual for Rais Rondo 92 & Rondo 120 First usage A careful start pays off. Start with a small fire, so that the wood burning stove can get accustomed to the high temperature. This gives the best start and any damage is avoided. Be aware that a strange but harmless odour and smoke concoction may emanate from the surface of the stove, the first time you fire up. This is because the paint and materials need to harden.
