1. IMPORTANT GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

The installation and operation of the heating equipment shall comply with all the instruc-

tions of the manufacturer, the European standards and the standards of the country

where the furnace is installed and operated. This is how malfunctioning and operating faults

can be forestalled.

Before the commissioning of the boiler, the operator of the boiler is obliged to consult

the instructions to become familiarized with the particular properties of the heating

equipment and the appropriate fuels.

The pellet furnace can be operated only with wood pellet of natural conditions (6 mm Ø) as

defined in standard EN-PLUS A1, DINplus or Ö-Norm M7135. Never use any shredded wood

or other fuels, waste materials.

In Europe, European Standard EN 13384 pertains to chimneys, EN 15287 to flue exhaust

equipment and EN 1856-2 to connecting elements.

Furthermore, in Germany the following requirements are also valid: Decree on heating

(Feuerungsverordnung (FeuVO), Provincial decrees on construction, Electricity/VDE

guidelines ( Elektro - / VDE-Richtlinien ) and Professional regulations on heating and air

heating. Besides, Federal Emission Protection Decree 1 (1. Bundes-Immissionsschutz-

Verordnung (1. BImSchV) also needs to be observed. Before commissioning, the specific lo-

cations of heating have to be accepted by the competent chimney-sweeper. The associated

protocol of acceptance shall represent the commissioning permit.

When the appliances is operated jointly with any air engineering equipment (for instance ventila-

tion equipment, vapour exhauster, pneumatic conveyor, etc.) the relevant technical rules / re-

quirements (in Germany, among others, ventilation and heating can be combined only are

permitted in Article 4 of FeuVO) shall be observed.

Hereunder, the requirements associated with use for the intended functions are dis-

cussed.

All the other applications are deemed as use beyond the intended functions. We cannot assume

liability for any related damage. Use in line with the intended functions involves the proper ob-

servance of the operating and installation instructions. Any unauthorized intervention and modi-

fication on the equipment may result in the invalidation of warranty and guarantee demands.

Any work on the appliance, especially installation, repairs, first commissioning, servicing

and corrections may be carried out solely by professional contractors (heating engineering

and air heating contractors). Any unprofessional intervention may lead to the invalidation of the

warranty and guarantee. Electrical appliances may be connected and serviced only by electri-

cians. Electronic structural elements, including, without limitations, printed circuit boards and

operating boards are electrostatically sensitive.

Within the framework of ultimate delivery, the professional contractor is obliged to train the

operator thoroughly and professionally in operating, cleaning and maintaining the equipment.

Particular attention shall be paid to the use of appropriate fuels, regular cleaning to be per-

formed by the operator, the necessary maintenance, as well as compliance with the safety re-

quirements. It is especially important to emphasize that any non-observance of the instructions,

or the failure to perform the prescribed cleaning and maintenance operations may result in the

invalidation of the warranty and guarantee.

Before commissioning, it shall always be ensured that all the accessories have been removed

from the combustion chamber and ash compartment, while the pellet storage space should

not hold any residual material.
