Open stacking
If the logs are stacked openly, the wood will burn
quickly as the oxygen can reach each log easily. If
you want to use the stove for a short while, make an
open stack.
Compact stacking
If the logs are stacked tightly, the wood will burn more
slowly as the oxygen can only reach some logs eas-
ily. If you want to burn wood for a longer period, make
a compact stack.
4. Close the door of the appliance.
5. Close the primary air inlet and leave the secondary

Maximum amount of wood
To stoke continuously at the rated power, wood must
be added every 45 minutes. If you use a smaller
amount of wood each time, you can add wood more
20
often. Each stove is designed to work with a specific
maximum amount of wood. If you use a larger quantity
of wood, the heat output increases: As a result the
appliance can become overloaded and parts can be
damaged.
