Adding Wood
1. Only once the wood has burnt out and has formed a
glowing mass should extra wood be added
No ames, the wood has almost burnt out.
To prevent smoke escaping when adding wood to the
stove, leave the door slightly ajar and then open fully.

2. Add two to Three Blocks of a maximum of 1 KG
each and of a proper size.
Do not use any other fuel than wood, please refer to
the chapter titled ‘Fuels’.
3. If the room temperature begins to get too warm,
close the air valve a little further to make the re burn
more gently. Gentler burning can also be achieved
by using larger pieces of wood or bundling smaller
pieces. If the stove interior remains black and does
not burn clean, then wood is not burning correctly. A
higher temperature needs to be achieved by burning
more and/or smaller pieces of wood and/or opening
the air inlet still further.
Once the re has gone out completely and no embers
are visible in the stove, close the air valve completely.
The stove will then continue to give off heat for a
longer period. When starting a new heating cycle,
reopen the air valve
