Cast iron
Cast iron is a live material. There are no two ovens that are identical. This is partly due to the
tolerances of the casting process, partly because the ovens are a work of craftsmanship.
Minor unevennesses may also occur in the cast iron surface.

Enjoy your new Morsø stove!
Morsø, the biggest stove company in the Danish
market, has been making wood-burning stoves
of the highest quality since 1853. Just follow the
instructions below, and we are certain that you will
be able to use and enjoy your new stove for many
years.
1.1 Unpacking the stove
The Morsø 6800 stoves weigh between 110 and 125 kg. In order to avoid damage when unpack-
ing and assembling the stove, we recommend that this job be undertaken by 2 people.
Remove the top cover, which is lying loose, before lifting the combustion chamber off the
wooden pallet. Place the stove carefully in position, centrally on the base plate.
1.2 Installing the stove
The stove comes with a smoke outlet included. The ball blocking device that is to stop the
chimney sweep’s ball during sweeping is also supplied with the stove and is installed at the
same time as the smoke outlet.
National and local regulations regarding the installation of wood-burning stoves must be
observed, as must local regulations regarding chimney connections and chimney installation.
You may want to ask your chimney sweep for advice. However, you, your technical adviser or
workman are responsible for complying with the applicable national and local regulations.
1.3 Chimney sweep
As stated, it may be wise to consult your local chimney sweep before installing the stove.
In any event, the chimney sweep must be notified once the wood-burning stove has been
installed. The chimney sweep will inspect the installation and schedule sweeping intervals
with you. If your chimney has not been used for some time, it should be inspected for cracks,
bird nests, etc., before it is used.
1.4 Location of the stove/distance requirements
Distance requirements apply only if the stove is placed near flammable materials. Your new
stove can be positioned as specified on the certificate of approval on the back of the stove if the
walls are made of flammable material.
