SUPER MAX - SUPER JUNIOR22 7191051 – ENTo light the fire, it is suggested using small wood pieces together with paper or other traded lighting means. It isforbidden to use any liquid substance as for ex. alcohol, gasoline, oil and similar.The openings for air (primary and secondary) must be opened together just a little (you must open the eventualbutterfly valve placed on the pipe of smokes exhaust). When the wood starts burning, adjust the air for combustionaccording to the instructions on paragraph 10.Please overlook during this lighting phase.Never overload the stove (compare the technical table - max. quantity of loadable fuel).Too much fuel and too much air for the combustion may cause overheating and then damage the stove, as aconsequence some scratches in the lower front part of the stove could happen.The warranty does not cover the damages due to overheating of the equipment.10. NORMAL OPERATIONFor safety reasons the door of the appliances with constructive system 1, must be opened only for the loading of thefuel or for removing the ashes, while during the operation and the rest, the door of the hearth must remain closed.The appliances with constructive system 2 must be connected to their own flue. The operating with open door isallowed under supervision.IMPORTANT: For safety reasons the door of the hearth can be opened only for the loading of the fuel. The hearthdoor must always remain closed during operation or rest.The nominal power of the appliance will be reached with a minimum depression in the chimney of 12 Pascal (=1.2mm of water column).With the registers located on the front of the appliance it is possible to adjust the heat emission of the same. Theyhave to be opened according to the calorific need. The best combustion (with minimum emissions) is reached when,by loading the wood, most part of the air for combustion flows through the secondary air register.Never overload the appliance (see the hourly wood load in the table here below). Too much fuel and too muchair for the combustion may cause overheating and then damage the stove.The warranty does not cover the damages due to overheating of the equipment.You should always use the stove with the door closed in order to avoid damages due to overheating (forge effect).The stove is an appliance with intermittent operation.Besides by the adjustment of air for the combustion, the intensity of combustion and then the calorific value of yourstove is affected by the chimney. A good flue of the chimney requires a more reduced adjustment of air for thecombustion, while a poor flue needs more an exact adjustment of air for combustion.To verify the good combustion of the stove, check if the smoke coming out from the chimney is transparent. If it iswhite, it means that the stove is not correctly adjusted or the wood is too wet; if on the contrary the smoke is grey orblack, it means that the combustion is not complete (it is necessary a greater quantity of secondary air).SUPER MAX SUPER JUNIORPrimary air(movable valve) Secondary air Tertiary Air Primary air(movable valve) Secondary air Tertiary AirWOOD Closed Open Alreadycalibrated Closed Open AlreadycalibratedMass of fuelhourly 1.8 kg/h 1.5 kg/h11. OPERATION DURING TRANSITION PERIODSDuring transition periods when the external temperatures are higher, if there is a sudden increase of temperature itcan happen that the combustion gases inside the flue cannot be completely sucked up.The exhaust gases do not come out completely (intense smell of gas). In this case, shake the grating more frequentlyand increase the air for the combustion. Then, load a reduced quantity of fuel in order to permit arapid burning (growing up of the flames) and the stabilization of the draught.Then, check that all openings for the cleaning and the connections to the stack are air-tight.12. MAINTENANCE AND CARELet check the installation of your stove, the connection to chimney and the ventilation by your chimney sweeper. Forthe cleaning of enamelled surfaces use soap water or not aggressive and not chemically abrasive detergents.IMPORTANT: It is possible to use exclusively spare parts clearly authorized and offered by LA NORDICA.
