the door completely. Stay by the stove as long as the door is ajar.
3. When the re has burned to embers (there are no more ames)
open the door gently so the ash is not whirled out through the door.
Gently spread out the embers with a poker so they are even.
4. Put 2-4 pieces of rewood in the stove, about 2,0 to 2,5 kg total.
The pieces are put in the bottom of the stove and parallel to the
front of the stove with equal distance to the stove’s sides and with
mutual distance of about 1 cm. The front piece is best lit if it has a
split side that is turned to the door and one in the embers. Close the
door completely immediately. Make sure you don’t overll the cham-
ber, max.15 cm from the bottom plate of the combustion chamber.
5. The knob/damper is opened so it is about 2/3 open (between
the left and middle position) and after about 2 minutes the damper
is set to about 1/3 open. How much the damper should be open
depends on the individual chimney’s draught, but the ames should
now stabilise to a calm re.
6. When the wood has burned to embers (after about 1 hour) you
start again from point 3.
MAINTENANCE – always use original parts
Maintenance and cleaning of the stove should only be performed
when the stove is cold.
The daily maintenance is limited, but once a year the stove should
get thorough maintenance. The combustion chamber should be clea-
ned for ashes and soot and the door hinges and the closing mecha-
nism should be lubricated with copper grease.
The surface is maintained by brushing it with a soft, long-haired
brush or by using the vacuum cleaner with a brush. The stove can
also be dusted with a duster. Always remember: only when the
stove is cold.
Jointings can look okay, but they collapse under the heat and
thereby lose the ability to keep the stove sealed. Jointings should
be changed as needed as it is important to good combustion and a
clean window that the stove is sealed.
The insulation plates in the combustion chamber that are broken
or worn can easily be changed as they are loosely xed. The ma-
terial used is called Vermiculite and is a porous, but very suitable
insulation material. It has no effect on the stove’s efciency that
the insulation cracks. However, it should be changed when the wear
surpasses half of the original thickness.
Painting the stove with Senotherm-spray can cover spots or small
scratches from kettles and such. Larger damages needs to be
ground with ne steel wool, vacuumed and then sprayed. The can
has to be shaken vigorously and then sprayed on at a distance of
15-20 cm. It is very important that the stove is not in use and com-
pletely cold before you use the spray due to the re hazard. In order
to keep the stove’s varnished surfaces looking nice for years to
