1. Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of your new ADF woodfire appliance!
Years of extensive research and dedication to innovation and quality, since 1976, has resulted in these
beautifully designed European appliances, constructed to strict Portuguese and European legislation, and
tested and Certified to the Australian Emissions, Efficiency and Safety standard requirements
guaranteeing excellent performance.
Please read this manual fully to ensure safe and efficient use of your heater and to comply with the
warranty guidelines.
Solid Fuel – Ecological Energy
Through photosynthesis, plants capture energy from the sun and transform it into chemical energy. The
trapped energy, e.g., in the form of wood, pellets, coal are called biomass fuels and can be converted
into various forms: electricity, fuel or heat. Biomass burning causes the release of carbon dioxide into
the atmosphere, but since this compound had previously been absorbed by the plants that originated
the fuel, the CO2 emissions balance is zero, not contributing to the greenhouse effect on the planet.
Firewood is the most environmentally friendly way of producing heat in your home, as it is a fully
renewable resource. The amount of CO2 that is released during the combustion of firewood is not higher
than the amount that would be released from its natural decomposition. Wood ash is a mineral fertilizer
easily absorbed by the environment in a totally ecological way.

Firewood – Use
Choosing your wood
All wood types have a different calorific value. You should choose only well-seasoned hard woods.Do
not use logs that are too large.Split round logs so they cannot roll and cause a hazard.
Drying your wood
Whichever firewood is chosen; it must be very dry and seasoned. Unseasoned or green firewood does
not heat as much, because a large part of the energy is consumed in the evaporation of the water and
creosote contained in the wood, which is highly corrosive and will damage the appliance and
consequently it could void your Warranty. In addition, moist firewood produces a large amount of
smoke and little flame, which will foul the appliance, the glass, and the chimney. When raining the
stored wood should be covered and well ventilated. Generally, green wood should be left to “season”
for two years.
Wood to Avoid
Softwoods and low-density wood: This kind of firewood release a lot of heat but burn too quickly and
projects embers and resin that foul the chimney and the interior of your woodstove.These should be
used as Kindling only, for starting your fire.
Do not use:
Wood with varnish, exotic wood, treated/painted timber, agglomerates that can produce toxic fumes
which will damage the appliance. Do not use driftwood or coastal wood with high salt content, it will
quickly damage the heater.
All ADF appliances are designed to burn firewood and firewood only, with less than 20% moisture
content. The use of unseasoned firewood or firewood with moisture or other types of fuel not
recommended will void the warranty.See below, the drier the wood the better heat you get out of it.

When Lighting the fire for the first time - use only a
small kindling fire with a minimal amount of wood,
to remove moisture from the brick linings. Then
repeat the process for a longer duration to cure the
paint, without over firing - paint peeling. See full
warnings on page 21.

The Hearth must have a heat resistant surface to 600°C, with an insulating thickness of non-
combustible material equivalent to 24mm of cement sheet with thermal resistivity of 0.1m².K/W for
6mm. eg Bellis Board or fibre cement sheet equivalent.
The base of the unit is raised 350mm from the floor protector for the following clearances to apply.
AS2918 default clearances apply for installations directly on the floor (75mm concrete slab suspended
with 25mm air gap below – see AS/NZS2918 3.3.3)
The appliance must be placed on a box 1000mm wide x 400mm high x 470mm deep made from 50mm
Skamol.
A minimum 300mm deep x 1240mm wide x 6mm thick floor protector (Bellis Board or similar cement
sheet) should be used in front and behind the appliance base when installing the appliance (see joint
AS/NZS 2918:2001 3.3.2). The floor protector must extend 300mm in front of both appliance fuel loading
doors and be placed centrally in the 1240mm width. The Thermal conductivity of the floor protector is
0.1m².K/W for 9mm thick sheets.
The Enclosure must be made from a minimum of 40mm thick, on all sides. There must be a minimum of
65mm side clearance between the heater and the skamol board. See dimensions below.

The appliance and flue were tested at the following clearances:
The side clearance to combustible walls or cabinetry from the Skamol enclosure wall, is 450mm from
the vent outlets.
Aminimum of two air vents must be installed. The top air vent must be 470mm long x 25mm high and
must not be closer than 235mm to the ceiling. The bottom air vent must be a minimum, 400mm long x
90mm high, and must be 60mm from the floor of the enclosure. Combustible material must be a
minimum of 450mm from the side vents. All enclosure joints must be sealed correctly to ensure they do
not allow heat to escape from enclosure.
The combustible ceiling above the Skamol enclosure roof must be no closer than 110mm, a 25mm
clearance must be maintained around the outer casing of the flue in the combustible ceiling. The outer
triple skin where it passes through the Skamol board enclosure must be fully sealed.
