Safety
Please note: All safety regulations must be
complied with strictly.
Carefully read the instructions for installation,
use and maintenance before you start using
the appliance.
The appliance must be installed in accordance
with the laws and requirements of your
country.
All local regulations and the regulations relating
to national and European standards must be
observed when installing the appliance.
Read the instructions for installation, use and
maintenance supplied with the appliance.
It is preferable to have the appliance installed
by an authorized and competent installation
company. They will be aware of the applicable
regulations and requirements.
The appliance is designed for heating
purposes. All surfaces, including the glass and
the connecting tube, can get very hot (over
100°C)! For operation, use a so-called "cold
hand" or an oven glove.
Don't place any curtains, clothes, laundry or
other combustible materials on or near the
appliance.
Don't use flammable or explosive substances
near the appliance when it is in use.
Avoid a chimney fire by having the chimney
swept regularly. Never burn wood with an open
door.
In the case of a chimney fire: close all air inlets
of the appliance and alert the fire brigade.
If the glass in the appliance is broken or
cracked, it must be replaced before you can
use the appliance again.
Make sure there is adequate ventilation in the
room where the appliance is installed. The
combustion will be incomplete in case of
insufficient ventilation, which results in toxic
gases being produced and spread through the
room. See the chapter "Installation
requirements" for more information on
ventilation.
Installation
requirements
General
The appliance must be connected tightly to a well-
functioning chimney.
For the connection measurements: see the
appendix "Technical data".
Ask the fire brigade and/or your insurance
company about any specific requirements and
regulations.
Flue or chimney
The flue or chimney is needed for:
Disposing of the combustion gases through natural
draught.
The warm air in the flue or chimney is lighter
than the outside air so it rises.
The intake of air, needed for the combustion of fuel
in the appliance.
A poorly functioning flue or chimney can cause smoke
to escape into the room when the door is opened.
Damage caused by smoke emissions into the room is
not covered by the warranty.
Do not connect multiple appliances (such as a
boiler for central heating) to the same flue,
unless local or national regulations allow this.
Ask your installer for advice regarding the flue. Refer
to the European norm EN13384 for a correct
calculation for the flue.
The flue must satisfy the following requirements:
4Subject to change because of technical improvements

The flue or chimney must be made of fire resistant
material, preferably ceramics or stainless steel.
The flue or chimney must be airtight and well
cleaned and guarantee sufficient draught.
A draught/vaccuum of 15-20Pa during normal
operation is ideal.
Starting from the flue spigot, the flue must run as
vertically as possible. Changes in direction and
horizontal pieces disrupt the outward flow of
combustion gases and may cause the deposit of
soot.
The interior measurements should not be too big, to
prevent the combustion gases from cooling down
too much, thereby reducing the draught.
The flue or chimney must ideally have the same
diameter as the connection collar.
For the nominal diameter: see the appendix
"Technical data". If the smoke channel is well
insulated, the diameter may be slightly bigger
(up to 2x the section of the connection collar).
The section (area ) of the smoke channel must be
constant. Wider segments and (in particular)
narrower segments disrupt the outward flow of
combustion gases.
When using a cover plate or exhaust hood: make
sure that the cover does not restrict the flue outlet
and that the cap does not impede the outward flow
of combustion gases.
The chimney must end in a zone that is not
affected by surrounding buildings, adjacent trees or
other obstacles.
The chimney part outside the house must be
insulated.
The chimney must be at least 4metres high.
As a rule of thumb: 60cm above the ridge of the
roof.
If the ridge of the roof is more than 3metres away
from the flue: stick to the measurements in the
following figure. A = the highest point of the roof
within a distance of 3 metres.
Ventilation of the area
For good combustion, the appliance needs air
(oxygen). That air is supplied via adjustable air inlets
from the area where the appliance is installed.
The combustion will be incomplete in case of
insufficient ventilation, which results in toxic
gases being produced and spread through the
area.
As a rule of thumb, the air supply should be
5.5cm²/kW. Extra ventilation is needed when:
The appliance is in an area that is well insulated.
There is mechanical ventilation, for example a
central extraction system or an extraction hood in
an open kitchen.
You can provide extra ventilation by having a
ventilation louvre installed in the outside wall.
Make sure that other air consuming appliances (such
as tumble-driers, other heating appliances or a bath
room fan) have their own supply of outside air, or are
switched off when you use the appliance.
You can also connect the appliance to a supply
of outside air. For this purpose, a connecting
kit has been included. Extra ventilation is not
needed in that case.
Subject to change because of technical improvements 5

Floor and walls
The floor on which the appliance is placed must have
sufficient load bearing capacity. For the appliance
weight: see the appendix "Technical data".
Protect a flammable floor from heat radiation
by means of a fireproof protective plate. See
the appendix "Distance from combustible
material".
Remove combustible material such as
linoleum, carpets/rugs and similar materials
below the fireproof protective plate.
Keep enough distance between the appliance
and combustible materials such as wooden
walls and furniture.
The connecting tube radiates heat too. Ensure
that there is sufficient distance or a shield
between the connecting tube and combustible
material.
The rule of thumb for a single-walled tube is a
distance of 3x the diameter. If a lining shell is
fitted around the tube, a distance of 1x the
diameter is permissible.
Carpets and rugs must be at least 80 cm away
from the fire.
Protect a flammable floor from possible falling
ash in front of the fire with the aid of a fireproof
protective plate. The protective plate must
comply with national standards.
For the dimensions of the fireproof protective
plate: see the appendix "Distance from
combustible material".
For further requirements in connection with fire
safety: see the appendix "Distance from
combustible material".

Features of the appliance
The appliance can be connected to the chimney at
the rear or at the upper side.
The appliance is supplied with a loose handle, the
so-called "cold hand".
The appliance is fitted with a separate door for
adding fuel; the so-called "filling door".
To open the, place the "cold hand" (A) in the bolt
(B) on the doors; see following figure.
6Subject to change because of technical improvements

The appliance is fitted with an ash removal port
that can be opened.
The appliance is supplied with a scraper for
removing excess ash.
The appliance is suitable for an outside air
connection. The connection kit necessary for this
is sold separately.
Installation
Preparation
Please check the appliance for damage caused
during transport or any other damage or defects
immediately after delivery. The appliance is
attached to the pallet with screws at the bottom.
If you detect damage caused during transport
or any other damage or defects, do not use the
appliance and notify the supplier.
Remove the removable parts (top plate, fire-
resistant inner plates, ash pan) from the appliance
before you start installing the appliance. Removing
the top plate makes it easier to connect the
appliance.
The top plate is loose on the appliance and can
simply be lifted off the appliance.
By removing removable parts, it is easier to
move the appliance and to avoid damage.
Note the location of those removable parts, so
that you have no difficulties in installing the
parts in the right place later on.
1. Open the door.
2. Remove the fire-resistant inner plates.
Cast iron inner plates protect the combustion
chamber and dissipate heat to the
environment.
Connecting to the rear or upper
side
When connecting the appliance to a chimney, you can
choose the top or rear of the appliance.
Plug the outlet that you don't want to use with the
corresponding cover that was supplied.
Install the corresponding connection collar that
was supplied on the outlet that you want to use.
Sealant and materials are supplied.
1. Fit the connection collar (1) to the outlet fitted to
the chimney using the fixing materials.
Subject to change because of technical improvements 7

2. Install the cover (2) with mounting plate (B) and
bolt (C) in the outlet (A) that is not connected to
the chimney; see following figure.
The cover is designed to form a whole with the
top plate when placed on the upper side.
3. Use the supplied stove sealant for sealing the
connection collar and the cover.
Fitting the handle
The appliance is supplied with a loose handle, the so-
called "cold hand".
Fit the wooden handle to the adaptor using screw
M8x50 provided; see following figure.
09-20015.088
Installing and connecting
1. Install the appliance in the right place, and make
sure it is level.
2. Connect the appliance hermetically to the flue.
3. In the case of connection to outside air: connect
the outside air supply to the connector you have
fitted to the appliance.
4. Install all the parts you removed in the right places
in the appliance.
Never use the appliance without the fire-
resistant inner sheets.
The appliance is now ready for use.
Use
First use
When you use the appliance for the first time, make
an intense fire and keep it going for a good few hours.
This will cure the heat-resistant paint finish. This may
result in some smoke and odours. You could open
windows and doors for a while in the area where the
appliance is located.
Fuel
This appliance is only suitable for the burning of
natural wood; sawn and chopped wood that is
sufficiently dry.
Do not use other fuels, as they can lead to serious
damage to the appliance.
You are not allowed to use the following fuels, as they
pollute the environment and because they heavily soil
the appliance and flue, which may lead to a chimney
fire:
Treated wood, such as scrap wood, painted wood,
impregnated wood, preserved wood, plywood and
chipboard.
Plastics, scrap paper and domestic waste.
Wood
Hardwood, such as from oaks, beeches, birches
and fruit trees, is the ideal fuel for your stove. This
8Subject to change because of technical improvements

type of wood burns slowly with calm flames.
Softwood contains more resins, burns faster and
gives off more sparks.
Use dried wood that contains no more than 20%
moisture. The wood must have dried for at least 2
years.
Saw the wood to size and split it when it is still
fresh. Fresh wood is easier to split, and split wood
dries more easily. Store the wood under a roof
where the wind has wind free access.
Do not use damp wood. Damp logs do not produce
heat as all of the energy is used in the evaporation
of the moisture. This will result in a lot of smoke
and soot deposits on the door of the appliance and
in the chimney. The water vapour will condense in
the appliance and can leak away through chinks in
the appliance, causing black stains on the floor. It
may also condense in the chimney and form
creosote. Creosote is a highly flammable
compound and may cause a chimney fire.
Lighting
You can check whether the flue has enough draught
by lighting a ball of paper above the baffle plate. A cold
flue often does not have enough draught and
consequently, some smoke may escape into the room
instead of up the chimney. By lighting the fire in the
way described here, you can avoid this problem.
1. Stack two layers of medium sized logs crosswise.
2. Stack two layers of kindling crosswise on top of
the logs.
3. Place a firelighter cube in the lower layer of
kindling and light the cube according to the
instructions on the packaging.
4. Close the door of the appliance and open the
primary air inlet and the secondary air inlet of the
appliance; see the following figure.
5. Let this fire develop into a good blaze until there is
glowing bed of charcoal. You can then add fuel
and adjust the appliance, see the chapter "Stoking
with wood".
o= Open l= Closed
Subject to change because of technical improvements 9

Burning wood
After you have followed the instructions for lighting:
1. Slowly open the door of the appliance.
2. Spread out the charcoal bed evenly across the
bottom of the fire compartment.
3. Stack a few logs on the charcoal bed.
Open stacking
If the logs are stacked openly, the wood will burn
quickly as the oxygen can reach each log easily. If
you want to use the stove for a short while, make an
open stack.
Compact stacking
If the logs are stacked tightly, the wood will burn more
slowly as the oxygen can only reach some logs
easily. If you want to burn wood for a longer period,
make a compact stack.
4. Close the door of the appliance.
5. Close the primary air inlet and leave the secondary
air inlet open.
Fill the appliance up to one third capacity.
Controlling the air
The appliance has various features for the air control
(see figure).
1
2
3
The primary air slide controls the air flow under the
grille (1).
The secondary air slide controls the air flow in front of
the glass (air-wash) (2).
The back wall has permanent vents (3) below the
baffle plate that allow for post-combustion.

Advice
Never burn wood with an open door.
Regularly burn wood with intense roaring fires.
If you frequently have low intensity fires, tar
and creosote may be deposited in the chimney.
Tar and creosote are highly combustible
substances. Thicker layers of these
substances might catch fire when the
temperature in the chimney increases
suddenly and steeply. Therefore it is
necessary for the fire to regularly burn very
intensely, so that layers of tar and creosote
disappear.
Low intensity fires also cause tar deposits on
the stove window and door.
When the outside temperature is not very low,
it is better to burn wood intensely for a few
hours instead of having a low intensity fire for a
long period of time.
Control the air supply with the secondary air inlet.
The secondary air inlet not only supplies air to
the fire but to the glass as well, so that it does
not get dirty so quickly.
Open the primary air inlet for the time being if the air
supply by the secondary air inlet is inadequate or if
you want to fan the fire.
It is better to add a small amount of logs regularly
than to add many logs at the same time.
Use the filling door to add fuel to the appliance.
Extinguishing the fire
Do not add fuel and just let the fire go out. If a fire is
damped down by reducing the supply of air, harmful
substances will be produced and released. Therefore,
let the fire go out naturally. Keep an eye on the fire
until it has gone out. When the fire has died
completely, all air inlets can be closed.
Removing ashes
After the wood has been burnt, a relatively small
amount of ashes is left over. This bed of ashes is a
good insulating layer for the bottom of the fire
compartment and improves combustion. Therefore,
you can leave a thin layer of ashes on the bottom of
the fire compartment.
However, the air supply through the bottom of the fire
compartment must not be impeded and no ash should
be allowed to accumulate behind a cast iron inner
plate. Therefore, remove any excess ash frequently.
1. Open the door of the appliance.
2. Use the scraper to open the ash removal port in
the bottom of fire compartment; see the following
figure.
3. Using the scraper, sweep the redundant ashes
through the ash removal port into the ash pan
underneath.
4. Close the ash removal port.
5. Open the ash pan access door.
Subject to change because of technical improvements 11

6. Remove the ash pan using the "cold hand"
provided and empty the ash pan; see next figure.
7. Install the ash pan and close the appliance doors.
Fog and mist
Fog and mist hinder the flow of flue gases through the
flue. Smoke can blow back and cause a stench. If it is
not strictly necessary, it is better not to use the stove
in foggy and misty weather.
Solving problems
Refer to the appendix "Diagnostic diagram" to solve
any problems in using the appliance.
Maintenance
Follow the maintenance instructions in this chapter to
keep the appliance in good condition.
Chimney
In many countries, people are legally required to have
their chimney checked and maintained.
At the beginning of the heating season: have the
chimney swept by an expert.
During the heating season and after the chimney
has not been used for a long time: have the
chimney checked for soot deposits.
After the heating season: seal off the chimney with
a ball of paper.
Cleaning and other regular
maintenance activities
Do not clean the appliance when it is still
warm.
Clean the exterior of the appliance with a dry lint-
free cloth.
At the end of the heating season, you can clean the
interior of the appliance thoroughly:
If necessary, first remove the fire-resistant inner
plates. See the chapter "Installation" for
instructions on removing and installing the inner
plates.
If necessary, clean the air supply ducts. Remove
the top plate to this end. The top plate lies loosely
on the appliance.
If required, remove the baffle plate at the top of the
appliance and clean it.
Checking fire-resistant inner plates
The fire-resistant inner plates are consumables and
subject to wear. Check the fire-resistant inner plates
frequently and replace them when necessary.
See the chapter "Installation" for instructions on
removing and installing the inner plates.
The insulating vermiculite inner plates may
develop hairline cracks, but that does not
affect their performance adversely.
Cast-iron inner plates go a long way if you
frequently remove the ash that may pile up
behind them. If accumulated ash behind a
cast-iron plate is not removed, the plate cannot
dissipate the heat anymore to its surroundings
and that may cause the plate to warp or crack.
Never use the appliance without the fire-
resistant inner plates.
Cleaning glass
Dirt clings less easily to well-cleaned glass. Proceed
as follows:
12 Subject to change because of technical improvements

1. Remove dust and loose soot with a dry cloth.
2. Clean the glass with stove window cleaner:
a. Apply stove window cleaner to a kitchen
sponge, rub down the entire glass surface and
give the cleaning agent time to react.
b. Remove the dirt with a moist cloth or kitchen
tissue.
3. Clean the glass again with a normal glass cleaning
product.
4. Rub the glass clean with a dry cloth or kitchen
tissue.
Do not use abrasive or aggressive products to
clean the glass.
Wear household gloves to protect your hands.
If the glass in the appliance is broken or
cracked, it must be replaced before you can
use the appliance again.
Make sure that no stove window cleaner runs
between the glass and the cast-iron door.
Maintaining enamelled fire
Never clean the appliance when it is still hot. The
enamelled surface of the fire can be cleaned most
effectively with a mild green soap and lukewarm
water. Use as little water as possible, rub the surface
dry and prevent the formation of rust. Wire wool or
other abrasives should never be used. Never place a
kettle directly onto an enamelled fire; use a stand and
prevent damage from occurring.
Lubrication
Although cast-iron is slightly self-lubricating, you will
still have to lubricate moving parts frequently.
Lubricate the moving parts (such as guide
systems,hinge pins, latches and air slides) with
heat resistant grease that is available in the
specialist trade.
Touching up damaged paint
Small areas of damaged paint finish can be touched
up with a spraying can of special heat-resistant paint
finish available from your supplier.
Touching up the enamelled surface
Enamelling is a process carried out by traditional
methods, meaning that it is possible that small colour
differences and damage may occur. The appliances
undergo a visual inspection in the factory, that is to
say, the inspector looks at the surface for a period of
10 seconds from a distance of 1 metre.
Any damage that does not stand out is regarded as
OK. A special heat-resistant paint is supplied along
with the apparatus, with which minor damage caused
during transport can be touched up.
Apply the heat-resistant paint in thin layers and leave
to dry well before using the appliance.
Checking the seal
Check whether the sealing rope of the door is still
in good condition and works well. The sealing rope
is subject to wear and needs to be replaced in time.
Check the appliance for air leaks. Close any
chinks with stove sealant.
Let the sealant harden fully before you start a
fire in the appliance, because otherwise any
moisture in the sealant will form bubbles in the
sealant and cause a new air leak.

Problem
Wood does not keep burning
Gives off insufficient heat
Smoke emissions into the room when adding wood
Fire in appliance is too intense, is hard to adjust
Deposit on the glass
Possible cause Possible solution
Insufficient draught A cold flue usuallyfails to create sufficient draught. Follow the
instructions for lighting in the "Use" chapter; open a window.
Wood too damp Use wood with no more than 20% moisture.
Pieces of wood too big Use small pieces of kindling. Use split logs no larger than 30 cm in
circumference.
Wood stacked up incorrectly Stackup the wood in a way that allows an adequate air flow between
the logs (open stacking, see "Burning wood")
Chimney does not work properly
Check whether the chimney meets the requirements: at least 4
metres high, right diameter, well insulated, smooth inside, not too
many bends, no obstructions in chimney (bird's nest, too much soot
deposit), hermetically tight (no chinks).
Chimney stack incorrect Sufficiently high above the roof, no obstacles in its vicinity
Air inlets set incorrectly Open the air inlets completely.
Appliance connected to chimney
incorrectly Connection should be hermetically tight.
Vacuum in area where appliance is
installed Switch off extraction systems.
Insufficient supply of fresh air Provide an adequate air supply; if necessary use connection to
outside air.
Adverse weather conditions?
Inversion (reversed air flow in chimney
because of a high outside temperature),
extreme wind velocities
We recommend you don't use the appliance in the case of inversion.
Install an extra hood on the flue to increase the draught if need be.
Draught in the living room Avoid draught in the living room, do not place the appliance near a
door or heating air ducts.
Flames touch the glass Make sure the wood does not lie too close to the glass. Slide the
primary air inlet cover closer to the "Closed" position.
