Adjustment of legs
NB! Please note that the legs of Duo 2, 4 and 5/6 must
be adjusted upwards, about 8 mm, if a form-fitted floor
plate is used. Please also note that the height of the
flue/chimney connection will also change if the product
is raised.
Duo 1: Does not have adjustable legs
Duo 2 FIG 5-6: In order to adjust the front legs;
Remove the lower lid in front by tilting it out of the clips
at the top (A) and lifting it out from the bottom (B).
In order to adjust the rear legs; Remove the back plate
as shown in FIG 8-10D.
Use a 17 mm wrench in order to adjust the legs.
Duo 4/5/6 FIG 7: Open the door to the space under the
combustion chamber. Remove the 4 plastic lids and
adjust the legs with a 17 mm wrench. Put the plastic lids
back in place.
Flue outlet collar
Duo is delivered standard with a top flue outlet
collar.
For rear connection
FIG 8-11: Remove the top plate (A). Unfasten the
two screws that holds the collar in place and remove
the collar (B). Unfasten the two screws and bracket
that hold the back plate in place (C-D). Use a Phillips
screwdriver in order tu unscrew the two screws that
keep the lid in place behind the back plate (E). Unscrew
the two screws that keep the lid in place over the flue
outlet and place the lid where the flue outlet collar was
before (FIG 11A-C). When the back plate is put back
in place it is important to push it well in place in order
to minimise the risk of gaps between the plate and the
sides of the stove.
Connecting the flue
Please be aware when connecting the 150 mm flue to
the smoke dome that the flue is placed outside the flue
outlet collar. *Alternative versions exsists due to
National requirements. For the flue connection to the
chimney, follow the recommendations from the chimney
manufacturer
Air Supply
For connecting the fresh air supply set see FIG DUO
Air 1, 2 and 4/5/6.

5. Lighting the fire for the first time
When the stove is assembled and all instructions have
been observed, a fire can be lit.
Take care when inserting logs into the burn chamber,
in order not to damage the Thermotte plates. Please
note that there might be some humidity in the insulation
plates which can result in a slower burn rate the first few
times the stove is used. These will be resolved once
the humidity has evaporated. Possibly leave the door
slightly open the first 2-3 times that the stove is used. It
is advisable to ventilate the room well when firing
for the first time as the varnish on the stove may
release some smoke or smell. Both the smoke and
smell will disappear and are not hazardous.
Lighting a fire
Insert small dry pieces of kindling wood, ignite and
ensure that the flames have established on the wood
before closing the door. Open the air vent control (FIG
4) before you close the door. Additional ignition air is
obtained by keeping the door slightly open. When the
flames are stable and the chimney is warm, the air
supply is regulated with the air vent control.
When there is a glowing layer of ash, new wood logs
can be inserted. Pull the hot ember to the front of the
combustion chamber when inserting new logs so that
the wood is ignited from the front. Keep the door slightly
open each time new logs are inserted so that the flames
get established. The fire should burn with bright and
lively flames.
Using the stove with low combustion effect and firing
around the clock increase pollution as well as the risk
for a fire in the chimney. Never allow the stove or flue
to become glowing red. Turn off the air vent control
should this happen. Regulation of the air vent control
takes some experience, but after a little while a natural
rhythm for the fire will be found.
IMPORTANT! Always remember to open the air
vent control and the door when new wood logs
are inserted into a hot burn chamber. Let the
flames get established on the wood before the air
supply is reduced.
When the draught in the chimney is low and
the vents are closed, the gas from the firewood
can be ignited with a bang. This can cause
damages to the product as well as the immediate
GB
environment.
