Lighting The Stove; Primary Air - ADURO 22-Serie Bedienungsanleitung

Important safety information:
•
The wood burning stove will become warm during use, and therefore it should be treated with all
necessary caution.
•
Never keep easily combustible fluids such as petrol in the vicinity of the wood burning stove.
•
Never use easily combustible fluids to light the fire in the wood burning stove.
•
When lighting a fire and adding new wood logs, it is important to get the fire burning fast. If the fire
does not start quickly and wood only smoulders, it can cause strong smoke formation and in worst
case cause an explosive ignition of the flue gasses, which can damage the stove.
•
Never empty the ashpan when the wood burning stove is warm. Embers may still be found in the
ashpan for up to 24 hours after the fire has gone out. Please wait to empty the ashpan until you
are sure that there are no embers in the ash.
•
The door should be kept closed while the wood burning stove is in use. While lighting the fire, the
door can stand ajar for the first few minutes.
•
When putting logs in a hot stove, you must always open the primary air intake and make sure that
the wood ignites within 2-3 minutes. If the wood does not ignite, add some ignition products, and
ignite them manually. Please make sure that the flames are burning steadily for the first 10
minutes before you leave the stove.
•
In the event of a chimney fire: Close all the dampers on the wood burning stove and call the fire-
fighting service.
3.1 Air damper
The stove is equipped with an air damper for regulation of the primary and secondary air supply. The primary
air is used at the beginning to get the fire going, and the secondary air keeps the fire burning evenly. The
tertiary air ensures that flue gasses are burned and is not adjustable. You must always add secondary and
tertiary air, while firing the stove. The air-wash system that minimises soot on the front glass is also adjusted
by this damper.
The damper allows you to adjust the stove according to the chimney draft and the heat output you require.
The longer the damper is pulled out, the more air is added, and the more powerful the combustion. The
illustration below shows the stove with the damper indicated. Use the edge of the door to read the position of
the inlet air:

3.1.1 Primary air

When you add new logs, the primary air should be opened until the fire is burning properly. In order to utilise
the fuel to the fullest extent, the embers should have burnt for so long that it is necessary to open the primary
