Installation of your Supra Oscar wood stove must be performed by a qualified professional in accordance with all local and national building and fire codes. Failure to comply with these regulations can result in fire, property damage, or personal injury.

3.1 Selezione del sito

Choose a location that allows for proper chimney connection and maintains required clearances from combustible walls, furniture, and other materials. The floor beneath the stove must be constructed of non-combustible material or protected by an approved floor protector.

4. Istruzioni per l'uso

4.1 First Use (Curing the Paint)

During the first few fires, the stove's paint will cure, emitting an odor and possibly some smoke. Ensure good ventilation during this period. Start with small fires and gradually increase the heat over several days to allow the paint to cure properly and prevent damage to the finish.

4.2 Caricamento del carburante

1. Aprire completamente il controllo dell'aria primaria.
2. Posizionare giornali accartocciati o accendifuoco sul fondo del focolare.
3. Disporre piccoli pezzi di legna da ardere sopra i giornali/accendifuoco.
4. Accendere il giornale/gli accendifuoco.
5. Una volta che la legna da ardere brucia bene, aggiungere gradualmente pezzi più grandi di legna stagionata.
6. Close the door securely once the fire is established.

4.3 Controllo aereo

The Supra Oscar wood stove features primary and secondary air controls to regulate combustion. The primary air control (usually located at the bottom of the door) is used for starting fires and for rapid heat output. The secondary air control (often located above the door or on the sides) introduces preheated air for more complete combustion, reducing emissions and increasing efficiency. Adjust these controls to achieve the desired burn rate and heat output.

4.4 Rifornimento di carburante

When refueling, open the primary air control fully for a few minutes before opening the stove door to prevent smoke spillage. Open the door slowly, add new fuel, and then close the door securely. Adjust air controls as needed.

5. Manutenzione

Regular maintenance ensures the safe and efficient operation of your wood stove.

5.1 Rimozione della cenere

Remove ash regularly, typically when the ash bed is 2-3 cm deep. Use a metal shovel and place ashes in a metal container with a tight-fitting lid, away from combustible materials. Ensure ashes are completely cold before disposal.

5.2 Pulizia del vetro

If the glass becomes dirty, allow the stove to cool completely. Use a damp cloth dipped in fine wood ash or a specialized glass cleaner for wood stoves. Avoid abrasive cleaners that can scratch the glass.

5.3 Pulizia del camino

The chimney and flue pipe should be inspected and cleaned at least once a year, or more frequently if burning resinous wood or experiencing heavy creosote buildup. This should be performed by a certified chimney sweep.

5.4 Ispezione annuale

Have your stove and chimney system inspected annually by a qualified professional. They can check for wear and tear, proper seals, and overall safety.

6. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

• Smoke Spillage: Ensure the chimney is clear, the flue damper is open, and the door is not opened too quickly. Check for downdrafts.
• Poor Draft: May indicate a blocked chimney, cold chimney, or insufficient air supply to the room.
• Bassa emissione di calore: Ensure you are burning dry, seasoned wood. Check air control settings and chimney draft.
• Excessive Creosote Buildup: Often caused by burning wet wood or operating the stove at too low a temperature. Increase burn temperature and ensure wood is dry.
