Operational type: Intermittent“Intermittent combustion” here means normal use of a stove. That is to say, if you want to continue producing heat, you add more fuel as soon as the previous load of wood has burnt down to embers. Wood consumption Jøtul F 500 has a nominal heat output of 8,5 kW. Use of wood, with nominal heat emission: Approx. 2,7 kg/h. Another important factor for proper fuel consumption is that the logs are the correct size. The size of the logs should be:Kindling:Length: 30 - 55cmDiameter: 2 - 5 cmAmount per fire: 8 -10 piecesFirewood (split logs):Recomended length: 35 cmDiameter: Approx. 8 - 13 cmIntervals for adding wood: Approximately every 80 minutesSize of the fire: 3,5 kg Amount per load: 2 - 3 piecesNominal heat emission is achieved when the airvent is open approximately 50%.les combustibles recommandés.Respectez les consignes d'utilisation.

Foundations It must be ensured that the foundations are dimensioned for the fireplace. Cf. «2.0 Technical data» for specification of weight. It is recommended that flooring which is not fastened to the foundations – so-called floating flooring – is removed during installation. Wooden floor protection Jøtul F 500 has a heat shield underneath which protects the floor from radiation. The product can therefore be placed directly on a wooden floor that is covered by a metal plate or other suitable, non-inflammable material. The recommended minimum thickness is 0,9 mm.Any flooring made of combustible material, such as linoleum, carpets, etc. must be removed from under the floor plate. Requirement for protecting combustible flooring in front of fireplace The front plate must be in accordance with national laws and regulations. See fig.1.Contact your local building authority regarding restrictions and installation requirements.

Note! The side load door must not be used in corner installations. Distance to wall made of combustible material- see fig. 1 The fireplace is authorised for use with the distances to the wall of flammable material as shown in fig. 1.A heat shield for the back can be ordered and mounted depending on the position of the fireplace and the desired distance to combustible materials. See fig. 1. Distance to walls covered by a firewall Firewall requirement The firewall must be at least 100 mm thick and be made of brick, concrete-stone or light concrete. Other materials and structures with satisfactory documentation may also be used.

There must be a minimum distance of 1200 mm to a combustible ceiling above the fireplace.

3.4 Chimneys and flue pipes

• A chimney can be linked to the fireplace and flue approved for solid fuel-fired fireplaces with a flue gas temperature as specified in «2.0 Technical data». • The cross-section of the chimney must be at least equal to the cross-section of the flue. Please use «2.0 Technical data» to calculate the correct cross-section of the chimney. • Several solid fuel-fired fireplaces can be connected to the same chimney if the cross-section of the chimney is adequate.• Connection to the chimney must be carried out in accordance with the installation instructions from the supplier of the chimney. • Before making a hole in the chimney the fireplace should be test-mounted in order to correctly mark the position of the fireplace and the hole in the chimney. See fig. 1 for minimum dimensions. • Ensure that the flue pipe is inclined all the way up to the chimney.• Use a flue pipe bend with a sweeping hatch that allows it to be swept.Be aware of the fact that it is particularly important that connections have a certain flexibility in order to prevent movement in the installation leading to cracks. N.B. A correct and sealed connection is very important for the proper functioning of the product. Recommended chimney draught: See «2.0 Technical data». If the draught is too strong you can install and operate a flue damper to control the draught.

3.5 Assembly prior to installation

Note! Check that the stove is free of any damage prior to commencing installation.The product is heavy! Make sure you have assistance when erecting and installing it.A heat shield for the floor shall always be used. A heat shield for the back can be ordered and mounted depending on the position of the fireplace and the desired distance to combustible materials. See fig. 1.1. The oval top plate is fastened with screws during transport. Remove the screws from underneath the top plate and leave it unattached. This makes it easier for the chimney sweep when the product and the flue pipe have to be cleaned. 2. Take out the ash lips, which are inside the burn chamber, and install. The one in front is placed loosely on top of the base plate, while the side ash lip is fastened with the screw that is attached to the base plate.3. Fasten the heat shield under the middle using 2 M6 x 12 screws. Follow the fig. 5. Mounting of flue pipe The stove is installed with a 150 mm diameter flue pipe. This must be an approved thickness. The flue outlet for Jøtul F 500 is inside the burn chamber during transportation. You can choose between a top or rear outlet from the flue pipe. The screws for fastening are in the bag containing screws. 1. Flue pipes 150 mm dia. are placed directly onto the product flue outlet. There is a screw on both sides of the product flue outlet (fig. 3A). These are used to fasten the flue pipe. 2. Mark where the screws hit the flue pipe when it is at the very bottom of the flue outlet and drill a 5,5 mm hole for the screw in the flue pipe. 3. Use gasket and cement to seal between flue pipe and product flue outlet. Place the gasket around the lower part of the flue pipe and fill up the space with cement. 4. Fasten the flue pipe with screws. Note! It is important that the joints are completely sealed. Air leakage etc. may lead to malfunction. ENGLISH13

ash from coming through the grate into the pan.

3. Make sure the door to the ash pan is securely shut when the

stove is in use. For the rest, see description of how to handle ash in the Manual on general use and maintenance in Point «6.1 Fire preventive measures».

Warning! Any unauthorised change to the product is illegal. Only use original spare parts.

2. To remove, just lift it off and out

3. To install, follow the same procedure in opposite sequence.

Make sure the vermeculite plate is fitted closely against the back wall. Be aware that the vermiculite plate may be damaged by rough handling.

4. Then place the insulating blanket on top of the baffle plate.

4.2 Changing the burn plates

1. The stove has burn plates that are mounted to the sides and

fire bricks in the back.

5.0 Optional equipment

5.2 Connecting pipe for outdoor

ventilation - Cat. No. 221031 With the aid of a connecting pipe for outdoor ventilation and a flexible tube, combustion air can be connected to the product directly from the outside. In this manner, the fireplace will always be supplied with the air needed to achieve proper combustion. Fresh air supply direct from the exterior or from the chimney with air vents

1. Insert the connecting pipe into the air inlet under the

connecting pipe by using a hose clamp and attach it to the wall outlet/chimney.
