TERMOROSA TR-02 - Narvells

9. TURNING ON
Wood burning stove/cooker – TERMOROSA TR02
WARNING: For no reason turn on the fire before the system has been completely filled with water;
doing so could cause serious damage to the entire structure.
IMPORTANT: at first lighting up it is inevitable that an unpleasant smell is produced (due to the drying of
the glue in the gasket chord or protective paints), which disappears after a short use. The
environment must in any case be well-ventilated. At the first lighting up we recommend
loading a reduced quantity of fuel and to increase slowly the heat output of the appliance.
To correctly light the products treated with paints by high temperatures, you need to know the following:
• the construction materials of the products in question are not homogeneous, in fact parts in cast-iron
co-exist with steel.
• the temperature at which the body of the product is submitted is not consistent: from zone to zone
variable temperatures are recorded from 300°C to 50 0°C.
• during its life, the product is submitted to alternate cycles of lighting and turning off during the same day
and to cycles of intense use or total inactivity with the varying seasons:
• before it can be said to be run in, the new wood burning stove/cooker must be submitted to different
cycles of start up to allow all materials and paint to complete the varying elastic stresses;
• especially initially you will notice the emission of smells typical of metals submitted to large thermal
stress and fresh paint. This paint, though in the phase of construction is heated to 250°C for a few
hours, must exceed many times and for a certain duration the temperature of 350° C, before bonding
perfectly with the metal surfaces.
It becomes important to follow these small suggestions during the lighting up phase:
1. Ensure that ample air changes in the installation space of the appliance are guaranteed.
2. In the initial occasions of turning on, do not load the combustion chamber excessively (about half of the
quantity indicated in the instruction manual) and keep the product lit for at least 6-10 hours non stop,
with the registers less open compared to that indicated in the instruction manual.
3. Repeat this operation for at least 4-5 or more times according to your availability.
4. Subsequently charge ever increasingly (following what is described in the instruction booklet at the
maximum load) and extend the period of lighting up avoiding, at least in the initial phase, short cycles
of turning on and off
5. During the initial occasions of turning on no object should be rested on the thermo stove/cooker and in
particular on the polished surface. The polished surfaces must never be touched during heating.
6. Once the running in phase has been passed you can use your product like the engine of a car,
avoiding sudden heating up with excessive loads.
To light the fire we advise the use of small planks of wood with paper or other means of lighting available,
excluding all liquid substances such as alcohol, petrol, oil and the like.
Follow the instructions below:
• Open the smoke register to envelop the exhaust, regulate the register to stove/cooker function, the
control lever must be pressed backwards (the butterfly valve on the smoke outlet tube must also be
opened).
• Position the knob of the thermostat on position 5(maximum opening).
• Open register of the primary air (placed on the ash tray).
• Having started the fire with small pieces of wood and waited for it to be well lit, set the thermostat
on the position corresponding to the heat desired.
• Bring the smoke register in the oven position, pulling the lever.
When the wood starts to burn more fuel can be loaded, close the register of the primary air and check
combustion through the secondary air according to the advice of the paragraph 10. During this phase never
leave the stove/cooker unsupervised.
WARNING: during the initial occasions of turning on a consistent condensation of smoke could
occur with a small leakage of water from the wood burning stove/cooker; this
phenomena will disappear in a very short time, if it should persist it will be necessary
to have the draught of the flue checked.
