3. Installation and preheating of the stove
3.1. Regulation of the height
The stove has three adjustable legs: one in the back and two in the front. The back leg is
regulated so that the connection pipe for the smoke ue is at the correct height. The front
legs are used to level the stove.
3.2. Connection with the smoke ue
The diameter of the smoke ue connection is 119 millimeters. The stove can be connected to
the smoke ue from the top or back of the stove. Seal the unused opening with the supplied
cover. The stove comes with a 160-mm smoke ue connection pipe, which can be used to
connect the stove’s smoke ue from the back.
The height of the center of the smoke pipe from the oor is 600 millimeters. If the smoke pipe
is connected from above with a 90° pipe elbow, the height of the center from the oor must
be 850 mm. A smoke pipe with a 60° pipe elbow must 1250 millimeters from the oor.
Do not push the smoke pipe too deep into the smoke ue, because this would hinder the
draft. Any leaks in the ue also reduce the draft; therefore, the ue connection must be
sealed with a reproof sealing material, such as rock wool. Regardless of the material, the
general requirement for the sauna smoke ue is T600.
A masonry smoke ue must conform to ue regulation E3. More information is available from
the Finnish building code, which is available on the Finlex website (http://www.nlex./data/
normit/30497-RakMk_E3_2007_FI.pdf).
A modular chimney must be approved and have a CE mark. If you are installing a modular
chimney, be sure to follow the manufacturer’s installation instructions.
3.3. Changing the opening direction of the rebox door
Figure 4. Open the door and raise the hinge pin up (1) so it comes out of the bottom hinge
barrel. Hold onto the door securely and turn the bottom part of the pin and turn the bottom end
of the pin up enough (2) that you can pull the pin down (3) and the pin and door come apart.
Figure 5. On the side of the door with the handle, undo the fastening screw of the handle so
that the handle comes loose. Turn the handle around and reattach the locking screw.
Figure 6. On the inside edge of the door opening, undo the limiter screw on the hinge side
(1). Release the locking pin (2) on the outer edge of the rebox door on the handle side (2)
with the help of an 8-mm open-end wrench. Remember the correct sequence of the parts.
Attach the locking pin to the opposite side of the door opening and tighten it with the open-
end wrench. Do not tighten the screw so much that the bushing of the locking pin locks.
Attach the limiter screw to the opposite inner side of the door opening.
Figure 7. Position the door so that the hinge holes coincide with the hinge pins. Position the
hinge pin so that the locking tab comes down and push the hinge pin through the upper hinge
hole (1). Push the hinge pin through the hinge holes in the bottom edge (2) and let it down
into place (3) on top of the locking tab. Carefully open the door. If the door hits the water
tank when it opens, tighten the limiter screw. You can adjust the opening angle of the door
with the limiter screw. Make sure that the locking pin of the handle is working properly and if
necessary adjust it with an open-end wrench.
