3. Designdescription
ATTENTION! A construction of the fireplace is subject to continuous development; therefore
minor deviations from this manual are possible. The design of the fireplace shall not be modified
withoutourconsent.
Thefireplacehasadoublecasedesignwhich makestheuseof anitemsafeandconvenient.Airis
sucked in at the bottom of the case, moves upwards and is released through the holes at the top
and sides of the fireplace. The case of the fireplace is welded from sheets of metal and painted
with heat-resistant paint. Supply of initial air is controlled with the help ofvalve 5 (see Fig. 1).The
valve is opened when it is completely shifted to the left and is closed when the valve is shifted to
the right. The secondary air is supplied into the combustion chamber through control valve 6.
The valve is completely opened when it is shifted towards the front of the fireplace and is closed
when it is completely shifted away from the front of the fireplace. The tertiary air is sucked in
through the holes at the sides of the fireplace and is directed to the combustion chamber
through the secondary combustion tubes 7.

5.Use
ATTENTION! Maintenance of the fireplace shall be performed only by adults having read this
user's manual. During the use of the fireplace the surface of the fireplace becomes hot; a risk of
burns arises. When opening / closing the door, and adjusting the control valves, it is necessary
to wear protective glove (included in the set). Prior to heating the fireplace make sure there are
noflammableitemsonit.
5.1. Firstheating
During the first heating of the fireplace it can emit a specific smell and visible vapors, and it may
seem that smoke is flowing into a room instead of flowing through the chimney. This should stop
after 1 or 2 full and intensive heating cycles. It is necessary to have a good ventilation of the room
duringthefirstheatingofthefireplace.Lateronthefireplacemaybeheatednormally.
5.2. Heating
Firing up. Fully open an initial air supply valve 5 by shifting it to the left (see Fig. 1.) Fully open a
secondary air supply valve bypulling it towards yourself. Put twoaverage size pieces of firewood
on the bottom of a combustion chamber; leave a gap between those two pieces. Put some
crumpled newspaper or a solid fuel tablet in the gap, then put some shredded and dry firewood
in a crosswise manner and then some average size firewood on top. Light up the paper and
close the door when the paper starts to burn well. A handle of the door may be hot; therefore a
safety glove should be used. Control the intensity of fire with the help of air supplyvalve.
Adding fuel. The first load of fuel must burn completely, i.e., only embers must remain in the
fireplacebeforeadding anewload.Itis necessary toslightlyopenthe doorinordertoevenoutthe
air pressure before the door is opened fully. This will prevent smoke from entering a room,
especially when chimney draught is weak. After adding a new load of fuel it is necessary to close
the fireplace door and fully open primary air supply valve for approximately 5 seconds for the fuel
to start burning well. After this the valves should be closed leaving only a small gap as during the
normal heating. In order to prevent fireplace from overheating it is recommended to use 2,5 kg of
firewood foroneloadatmost.Itisrecommendedtoputthefirewoodparalleltotheglass.
ATTENTION! When adding firewood into the fireplace make sure it does not touch the glass.
Heating during adverse weather conditions. In certain cases, e.g., when ambient
temperature is above 15°C, the weather is rainy and damp, or when a wind is gusty etc., the
chimney draught might be worse than usual. In such cases a minimum amount of fuel should be
usedinthefireplace, andtheinitialairsupplyvalveshouldbefullyopened.
5.3.Ashcleaning
After the fuel has burnt, ashes should be removed from the combustion chamber into an ashbin
using a suitable rake. Ashes should be removed only after they have cooled completely. Ashes
should be poured into a fire-resistant container. Ashes must be removed after every heating;
otherwisetheycanblocktheairsupply.
5.4.Fuel
ATTENTION! Only the recommended type of fuel shall be used for heating; use of other type of
fuel (e.g. coal) may result in overheating of the fireplace. In such case the warranty would not be
applied.
Thefireplaceis designedforusewithfirewood(deciduoustreesrecommended).Firewoodshould
be cut and split. Humidity of firewood used for heating should not be higher than 20%. Such
firewood humidity level is achieved after 1 to 2 year storage of the firewood in a ventilatedshelter.
Use of damp firewood results in reduced power of a fireplace, increased consumption of fuel;
accumulation of resins, cracking of vermiculite plates and faster corrosion of combustion
chamber.Duetohigheraccumulationofresinsuseofconiferousfirewoodisnotrecommended.
