6. MANUAL OPERATION
Each combustion process needs oxygen. Before ignition the combustion
chamber must be regularly cleaned from ash to ensure an adequate supply
of air.
The right fill amount for heating up is 2 - 3 logs of the quantity given in amount
of fuel.
Correct heating up primarily according to instructions counteracts excessive
smoke during heating up.
Note
Pay especially attention with the wooden bench on falling out embers during
reloading! Fire hazard!
Combustion air regulation
The performance of your stove also depends on the chimney draught; therefore
the control knob for combustion air regulation must be used according to your
own experience.
Heating-up position
100% secondary air
100% primary air
Middle position
100% secondary air
0% primary air
Zero position
0% secondary air
0% primary air
The primary air intake is absolutely necessary for heating up. The “heating-up
position“ may only be used for heating up.
If the stove is not in use, warm air can release through the chimney. The zero
setting of the control knobs can largely prevent this.
RIKA firelighter
Always ignite the RIKA firelighter on the red tip. One block consists out of 8 ribs
which can be divided to the desired size. The amount of RIKA firelighters also
depends on the size and humidity of your firewood. Ideally, one rib is enough
to light up the fire.
Tip
You can order the RIKA firelighter with the number E15834 at your RIKA
dealer.
Correct heating up
1. Set the control knobs to heating-up position – primary and secondary air
intakes are opened completely in the heating-up position. Place two small
pieces of chipboard lengthways left and right in the bottom of the combustion
chamber.
Place two logs crossways on top of this chipboard.
2. Now place further pieces of chipboard in crosswise layers on top of the
logs and place 2-4 ribs of the RIKA-firelighter on top of the chipboard. Some
uncoated paper can be placed underneath the chipboard in case there is no
firelighter available.
3.Now light the firelighter (or the uncoated paper) and close the combustion
chamber door.
Set the air control knobs to middle position some minutes later. The primary air
intake is now closed and the secondary air intake is completely open. Another
few minutes later (depending on draught and fuel quality / amount), the control
knob can be set further to zero setting to reduce the air intake.
After the first burn-off, add one or two logs (see Amount of fuel) to the blaze. Set
the control knob to heating-up position again until the wood is well lit.
Please proceed in the same way for every further addition of wood.
Note
Sometimes a lot of smoke develops when wood is placed on a low firebed or
when there is too less fresh air for combustion. An explosive gas/air mixture
may arise and cause an eventual heavy deflagration. For safety reasons it is
recommended to leave the combustion chamber door closed and press the
control knob at the rear wall down completely into “heating-up position”. If the
log wood is not igniting, start a new heating-up procedure after it stopped
smoking.
