SCAN 50 - Assembly; Unpacking; Service Package; Load Bearing Underlay

Unpacking
To protect your stove, we recommend not removing the plastic pack-
aging from the stove until you have completed the assembly.
Service package
The service package contains the following:
• Fitting for flue collar
• Seal for flue collar
• Safety fitting
• Plastic plugs for transport safety hole at the bottom of the
stove
• Various tools
• Glove
• Fire starters for first lighting
Load bearing underlay
All of the products in our portfolio are classified as light-duty fire-
places; in most cases, there is no need to reinforce the floor, so that
you can typically use the normal floor.
However, you should make sure that the load bearing underlay
can bear the weight of the wood-burning stove and that of the
chimney.
If your wood-burning stove is fitted with a revolving base, note that
the load bearing underlay must be flat.
Floor plate
If you are setting up the stove on a flammable floor, observe natio-
nal and local regulations on the size of the non-flammable underlay
that covers the floor around the stove.
Your local Scan dealer can advise you on regulations concerning
flammable materials in the vicinity of your stove.
The idea behind the floor plate is that it protects the floor and flam-
mable material against sparks.
The floor plate can be made of steel or glass, and the stove can be set
up on brick, natural stone or similar materials.
If you opt for the Scan 50-5 or Scan 50-5 Maxi (revolving base) note
the size and shape of the floor plate.
This Scan wood-burning stove has an integrated floor plate, and
can thus be set up on any flammable material without a protective
underlay.
Adjusting screws
Scan 53 is equipped with 4 adjusting screws at the base of the wood-
burning stove. You can use the screws to level the stove.
Type plate
All Scan wood-burning stoves are fitted with a type plate, that
specifies the approval standards and the distance to flammable
materials.
Compartment under combustion chamber
Do not store flammable objects in the compartment under the
combustion chamber.

Revolving base
The Scan 50-5 Scan 50-5 Maxi is available with restricted rotation
(45°). As an alternative, your authorized Scan dealer can set up the
stove to rotate to 90º or freely. This is done before fitting the wood-
burning stove. Note that this increases the distance to flammable
walls all around the stove to 800 mm.
