Termocamino 650 - 800
To perform a correct first lighting of products treated with paints for high temperatures, the following must
be considered:
• The construction materials of the products in question are not homogeneous; in fact there are parts
in cast iron, steel, refractory material, and majolica ceramic.
• The temperature to which the body of the product is subject is not homogeneous: from zone to zone
variable temperatures are recorded between 300°C to 500°C.
• During its lifetime, the product is subject to alternating cycles of lighting and shutdown during the
same day and to cycles of intense usage or absolute rest along with the changing seasons.
• The new appliance, before being able to be defined as seasoned, must undergo various cycles of
start-up to allow all the materials and the paint to complete the various elastic stresses.
• In particular initially, you may notice the emission of the typical odours of metals subjected to high
thermal stress and of still fresh paint. This paint, though it is baked during manufacture at 250°C fo r
a number of hours, must be subject to a temperature of 350°C numerous times and for a certain
duration before it becomes perfectly incorporated with the metallic surfaces.
It is therefore important to follow these simple measures during the lighting phase:
7) Make sure that there is good air exchange in the place where the appliance is installed.
8) During the first lightings, do not excessively load the combustion chamber (about half the quantity
indicated in the instruction manual), and keep the product lit for at least 6-10 hours continuously,
with the registers less open than that indicated in the instruction manual.
9) Repeat this operation for at least 4-5 or more times, depending on your availability.
10) Subsequently, increase the load (in any case following that which is described in the instruction
booklet regarding the maximum load) and if possible keep long periods of lighting, avoiding, at least
in this initial phase, brief cycles of lighting-shutdown.
11) During the first lightings, no object must be set on the appliance and in particular on the
enamelled surfaces. The enamelled surfaces must not be touched during heating.
12) Once the “road test” has been passed, your product can be used like a car engine, avoiding
brusque heating with excessive loads.
ATTENTION: during the first lightings there could be a solid smokes condensation with a small
escape of water from the thermo-fireplace: this event will expire in a very short time but if it
persists it will be necessary to check the chimney draught.
IMPORTANT:
Only after a few days of operation (the time necessary for determining that the appliance is
operating correctly), you can begin to assemble the aesthetic facing.
11. NORMAL OPERATION
After positioning the air register correctly, insert the hourly load of wood (see Chapter 20 – Chapter 21),
avoiding overloads that could cause anomalous stresses or deformation.
Failure to observe this rule will void the warranty.
The heat emission is regulated with the register situated on the front of the appliance, which should be
opened according to your heating needs.
The regulation of the register necessary for obtaining the nominal heat output with depression to the
chimney of 17 - 20 Pa (= 1.7 – 2 mm of column of water) is as follows:
Fuel
Primary air
Flat Wood Open
Prismatic Wood Open
In the event that the water temperature exceeds the tripping temperature of the safety devices,
immediately suspend the feeding of wood, and make sure that the water temperature and the flame
decrease, eliminating the causes of the overheating (if necessary by closing the air register).
If the water system is connected in the thermo-fireplace, the hot water tap can be opened to speed
up the cooling of the appliance.
