2. IMPORTANT INFORMATION

The installation and operation information given here is of general nature. National and European standards, local and building regulations as well as fire prevention laws must be observed during the operation of the stove.

General safety instructions for the operation of your stove

• Thoroughly read the entire manual before starting up your stove and observe the caution notices.
• Your heating unit may not be moved without approved means of transport with sufficient load-bearing capacity.
• Your heating unit is not suitable to be used as a stand or as a ladder.
• The burning of fuel releases thermal energy that leads to a substantial heating up of the surface of the heating unit, the doors and operating handles mounted on the door, door glass, flue pipe and in some cases the front wall of the heating unit. Do not touch any of these surfaces without respective protective clothing or without the help of accessories such as heat-resistant gloves or a cold hand.
• Make your children aware of this particular danger and keep them at a distance from the heating unit whenever it is in operation.
• Only burn approved fuels and materials listed in the chapter "Clean Burning".

• The burning or placing of flammable or explosive materials, such as empty spray cans and such like into the firebox as well as the storage of such materials in the immediate vicinity of your heating unit is strictly forbidden due the danger of explosion.

• Do not wear loose or flammable clothing when adding fuel to the fire.

• Placing non-heat-resistant objects on the heating unit or in the vicinity of the heating unit is forbidden.
• Do not lay laundry onto the stove for drying. Laundry hung up to dry must be kept at a safe distance from the stove because of the danger of fire.
• The woodstove Flok is not suitable for long term heating.
• During the operation of your heating unit it is forbidden to use flammable or explosive materials in the same or an adjacent room to the one in which your heating unit is located

Setting up your stove

Required safety distances (Minimum distances - see name plate - in Fig. 2)

a > 800 mm
b > 150 mm
c > 100 mm
(a - toward the front in the radiated area)
(b-to the side)
(c-to the back)

Make sure that the room in which the stove is set up has at least one door or window into the outside or is directly adjacent to such a room. Other fireplaces and extractor hoods must not be operated in the same room as the stove.

Floor load capacity

Make sure that the load capacity of the supporting construction is sufficient to carry the weight of the entire unit, before the heating unit is installed.

Combustion air

Being the user of the stove you must take care of a sufficient combustion air supply. Sealed-up windows and doors may not allow a sufficient combustion air supply or disturb the draught behaviour of your stove. Please ensure the additional supply of fresh

combustion air if necessary. For details please consult your specialist retailer

Stove pipe connection

For your own safety stringent laws apply for connecting the stove pipes to the chimney. Your professional dealer or distributor knows these laws. Please have your certified retailer carry out the connection of your stove.

Dry, well cured and natural wood (hardwood preferred), wood briquettes.

Maximum amount of fuel

Maximum amount of fuel to be added: 1,3 kg wood. Larger amounts of fuel can lead to overheating and thus damage the stove.

Clean burning

The wood must be dry (relative wood moisture < 15% ) and untreated and the right amount of wood must be burned in order to ensure a clean fire that releases only small amounts of emissions.

Making a fire

Prepare everything you need for starting the fire soft wood chips, igniter materials (such as Austroflamm lighter), wood. Figure 1 provides a good overview of the quantity of the materials you will need.

Open the air slider all the way. See figure 2.

Open the stove door.

Put ignition aid on the floor of the firebox. Lay soft wood chips onto the paper. Lay one or two logs of wood on the wood chips.

Figure 3: igniting the fire

Light the ignition aid. Close the firebox door.

Figure 4: regulate the air slider

As soon as the wood logs are burning well, you can regulate the heating capacity with the air slider (slider set to the maximum ("AUF") setting produces maximum heat – see figure 2.).

When adding wood to the fire, follow the same procedure as when igniting the fire: Open the air slider, carefully open firebox door, lay wood on the fire, close the firebox door.

Wait until the added wood catches fire and is burning. Then regulate the air slider again..

Heating in-between seasons

Heating the stove in between seasons, when the outside temperatures are higher, the flue gases may not be able to escape completely and this may lead to disturbances in the chimney draught, especially if the temperatures are rising suddenly. The stove has to be charged with less wood and the primary air has to be increased so that the wood can burn down faster (with visible flames) and thus the chimney flue can stabilize.

Chimney fire

A chimney fire may occur, due to sooting and deposits in the chimney, if wrong or humid fuel is used. Close all air inlets on the fireplace/chimney immediately and call the fire brigade. Please have an expert inspect your chimney for cracks and airtightness after the burning out of the chimney.
