5 BOILER OPERATION
5.1 Preparation for heating up
If possible, store enough fuel for two or three
combustion processes near the boiler room.
Prepare firewood
The firewood must correspond to size
(circumference 8 – 10cm) and dimensions to the
size of the boiler. Firewood without bark burns
better.
5.2 Heating up
Warning: Risk of system damage
due to improper maintenance!
Wrong position or lack of
firebricks inside the boiler can
lead to damage or destruction of
the boiler.
Before heating up the boiler,
check the position of the
firebricks.
Warning: Risk of system damage
due to improper maintenance!
Excessive fuel feeding can cause
overheating and damage to the
boiler.
Adapt the amount of fuel to
the energy absorption
capacity of the heating
system.
Crucial for the clean burn-off in
the boiler are the correct
operation of the boiler as well as
a sufficient feed pressure of the
exhaust system.
In the following a possibility for the heating up of
the boiler is described. Depending on the ambient
conditions (draft, exhaust system, wood, and so
on) other heating up processes may be better.
Get familiar with the boiler and find out the best
handling for you to use. Test the best opportunity
for heating up the boiler.
Please note always the safety notes!
Switch on the main switch [2] and regulator
( On/Off – button, page 18). The regulator
displays status 1.
1 … Cable bushing
2 … Main switch
3 … Electric supply
After the casing door is opened the “burning”
phase (Status: 2) starts automatically.
If it is not desired or necessary to
heat up the boiler, this process
can be interrupted with a long
press of the On/Off button.
To form a good flame it is recommended that
the lower third of the filling shaft be filled with
small pieces of wood.
After that normally chopped wood (size
around 8cm) can be used for filling.
Then open the lighting up door (4) and light
up with an oil ignition, wood shavings or
cardboard.
