2.2. Gas bottle connection
(A). The gas cylinder should be positioned vertically at a
distance of at least 1.5 metres from the appliance.
(B). The approved propane-butane gas hose (pos. 3)
must be inserted into the connection coupling (pos. 1)
and the gas regulator coupling.
(C). Check carefully that you have the correct diameter of
hose.
(D). Make sure the hose is fixed very tightly.
(E). Then apply hose clamps (pos. 2) to secure the hose
to the connection port and the gas regulator port, and
tighten them with a screwdriver or spanner.
(F). After the installation is complete, perform a leak test
using a soapy water solution or an electronic gas tester.
Installation of the propane-butane gas regulator
Due to the high power of the appliance, all valve
operations, i.e. reducing, increasing, closing the gas
supply must be carried out slowly. Otherwise there is a
danger of the flame going back to the nozzle. If this
situation occurs, close the gas supply immediately and
restart the burner after about 2 minutes.
2.3. Switching on the device.
Once the stove is correctly connected to the cylinder,
perform the following steps:
Press the valve knob, slowly turn counterclockwise
by about ¼ turn (pos. 2). Ignite the gas with the piezo
igniter by pressing the igniter button (item 3) while
holding the valve knob down. Once ignited, wait 30
seconds for the thermoelectric wire to operate, then
release the knob and adjust the flame to the desired size.

2.4. Switching off the device After using the appliance,
turn the valve to the "●" position - see figure below
Loosen the lock screw (pos. 1) slightly.
Slowly move the clamp (pos. 2), and adjust the primary
air supply so that an optimal blue flame is obtained
(yellow or red indicates wrong setting).
3 Slowly tighten the lock screw (pos. 1).
4. after each replacement of the gas cylinder, the
adjustment of the primary air supply should be carried
out again.
Properly performed adjustment should ensure:
fast and correct burner ignition, re-ignition and flame
transmission gentle, explosion-free flame spread on all
flame openings in no more than 5 seconds,
slight flame recoil is allowed, however after 1 minute the
flame shall be stable, the flame does not go out and does
not withdraw towards the nozzle when the burner's heat
output is changed within the entire range of power
adjustment foreseen and when rotating the control knob
from maximum to minimum power at normal speed
(normal speed, i.e. rotating the control knob from
maximum to minimum power for approximately 1 s).
WARNING! Always clean the appliance after use Before
cleaning, make sure that the stove has cooled down -
there is a high risk of burns. Shut off the gas supply to
the appliance by turning off the valves. If you intend to
turn the appliance during cleaning, it is necessary to
disconnect the gas supply hose to the appliance.
(A). Turn off the appliance and disconnect the gas supply
hose before carrying out maintenance.
(B). Make sure the appliance has cooled down.
(C). To prevent damage to the appliance surface, clean it
regularly.
(D). Fat or food residues in the appliance may cause a
fire.
(E). Clean the appliance with a damp cloth.
(F). Use only neutral cleaning agents. Never use
abrasive agents, agents containing caustic, bleaching
substances or acids to clean the stove and avoid using
acidic or alkaline substances (lemon juice, vinegar, etc.).
(G). Do not clean the appliance with steam cleaners.
(H). After cleaning, the appliance must be dried.
3. Periodical service
After the warranty period, the appliance should be
subjected to periodic inspection at least once a year.
The periodic inspection should be carried out by persons
qualified in gas equipment repair and maintenance.
The minimum scope of the periodic inspection is control
of proper operation, maintenance of gas valves and gas
tightness test of the appliance.
Periodic inspections after the warranty period are not
included in the purchase cost of the appliance.
Properly prepared burner with reducer to be connected
to to the cylinder.

4. Melter operation principles
1.
Fill the tank with water up to the level of the drain
pipe as in the picture (Fig.1). Fill in the water (take
special care not to burn yourself).
2.
Fill the basket with frames or dry wax material.
3.
Cover the device with the lid.
4.
Place the stove under the unit so that the flame
heats the entire surface of the bottom of the unit.
5.
Wait for the steam to rise and for the melted wax to
flow out.
6.
When the wax has been melted check the water
level and top up if necessary.
7.
Fill the basket with frames or dry wax material again.
8.
Repeat steps 6 and 7 until the melting process is
completed.
9.
When the process is finished turn off the burner and
close the gas bottle.
10.
Clean the basket of debris and prepare it for the next
use.
11.
This equipment is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience or
familiarity with the equipment, unless supervised or
in accordance with instructions given by those
responsible for their safety.
12.
Water should be filled through the inlet as in Fot.1.
5. Product description
These devices are intended to recover the wax from the
frames or the dry matter itself by means of steam. It
consists of an external water container and a basket
containing the frames or dry wax matter. A gas stove is
an accessory which, by heating up the water tank,
produces steam.
