Combustion chamber airing can be realised from the room or from the outside.
The stove has a built-in air intake from the outside –intake nozzle fi 100mm. Primary air regulation for the
grate takes place using one mechanism (regulator) located at the door. The furnace has a triple system of airing the combustion
chamber, primary and secondary air. Separation of air to the combustion chamber takes place in the space
(air chamber) under the plate –grate, where the burning takes place. Primary air is supplied under the grate
located in the floor of the combustion chamber. Secondary air is supplied through a special channel
(located on the rear wall of the stove), through the system of openings, to the combustion chamber.
Secondary combustion consists of burning particles found in the smoke. The stove also has the system of
air curtain. The air directed through the steering wheel “sweeps” the glass causing the fire and smoke to move
away from it, what significantly reduces the deposition of soot. This is the way the air is supplied to the upper part of the
combustion chamber, where takes place the burning of gases created in the process of wood burning,
what limits the emission of the harmful c.o. to atmosphere.

The first fire
Before the first fire we should remove all stickers or parts of equipment, located in the hearth.
During the first fire in the furnace, you should keep the minimal temperature. All materials
must slowly adapt to the high temperature. During the first fires the stove produces a smell, caused by the
burning of paint. This smell will disappear after a short time. During the secretion of the smell, you should always
air the room, where the stove is located.
Important: Before lighting up a big fire, you should light up a small one two or three times. This will allow
the furnace structure for the proper embedding, and the paint to harden.
Normal burning and extinguishing the furnace
To prevent the extraction of exhaust gases during the operation of the heater, the door should be closed
all the time, except during ignition,
fuelling and removing ash. During the ignition you should provide the
mal possible air flow. You should completely open the regulation of the primary air inflow. It is allowed
to slightly open the door until the fire starts. When starting the fire with open door you cannot move away from
the stove. You must not use flammable
liquids, grease, or other inappropriate preparations facilitating the
ignition. After the ignition, during the normal operation of the furnace, combustion parameters can be regulated
using the primary air inflow regulation located under the door.
With the completely open primary air regulation to the combustion chamber, the greatest amount of air is
supplied under the hearth, so the fuel is intensively burned. The nominal parameters of the stove are obtained
with the primary air damper open to the middle 50 %.
The amount of fuel
You should not feel the hearth completely with wood, the optimal amount of fuel is the one, which will fill the
Combustion chamber up to 1/3 of its volume.
Before adding wood, you should wait until the flames subside, you should not add
wood into too much heat. Doors should be closed each time. After the prolonged use, it is recommended
For the first ignition to be performed with a smaller power.
Extinguishing
Extinguishing takes place
by closing off the primary air inflow, in such case you should wait for the spontaneous
If you need to quickly extinguish the flame, the furnace chamber should be buried with dry
sand or ash. It is unacceptable to extinguish fire by spraying it with water, it may damage the stove elements.
Rules of maintenance
The basis for the proper and safe operation of the furnace is the properly cleaned and maintained chimney.
The user is obliged to clean the chimney according to the applicable regulations. The frequency of cleaning and
maintenance depends on its isolation and on the type of the used wood.
The use of not seasoned wood with
moisture greater than 20% or softwood w
ill cause the risk of fire of soot in the chimney due to the deposition
of a thick layer of combustible creosote, which should be regularly removed. The layer of creosote which was not
removed inside the chimney damages the seal, and it contributes to the formation of corrosion. Therefore,
there is a need of the periodic control and maintenance of the stove and elements cooperating with it.
Cleaning the glass
The glass is heated to high temperatures, so its cleaning should take place when the furnace is cooled down.
For cleaning you should only use measures for this purpose, certified. Do not use abrasive measures
Door/Seals
The friction surf
aces of the door hinges and the closing mechanism should be lubricated with graphite
grease occasionally. Before each heating season you should perform the review and cleaning of the whole
stove. You should pay special attention to the condition of the seals, replace them if necessary.
