Magnets in the Stove (TT21 Models) - WARNING
THE TT21 SERIES CONTAINS VERY STRONG MAGNETS.
NEGLIGENT HANDLING CAN RESULT IN ACCIDENTS AND DAMAGE.
READ THE FOLLOWING BEFORE UNPACKING:
• Avoid metal items containing iron near magnets (e.g. tools, electronics, watches, etc.)
• Maintain a good distance between magnetic systems to prevent them from attracting and snapping together.
• When separating and assembling magnets, try to slide them apart and together whenever possible. This avoids pinching and
potential damage to the magnets' coating.
• Electronic components should be kept at a safe distance from magnets, as they can be affected or damaged by the magnetic
field (pacemakers, hearing aids, PCs, watches, measuring instruments, data discs, floppy discs, credit cards, mobile phones,
etc.).
• Magnets can generate sparks, so they should be kept away from explosive or flammable materials and gases.
• Magnets should not be processed in a dry state, as magnetic powder can ignite spontaneously. Magnetic powder should be
stored in water-filled or airtight containers."
Flammable material:
Flammable material must not be stored in the wood compartment of stove type TT21RL & TT21RLS.
Chimney fire
In case of chimney fire, the stove's door, drawers, and dampers must be immediately closed completely to cut off the oxygen
supply. Relevant authorities, etc., should be contacted if necessary. The stove and chimney should only be used again after
inspection by a chimney sweep.
4 Tips, Malfunctions, and Troubleshooting
Lighting after a Prolonged Pause
If the stove has not been used for an extended period, the chimney should be inspected for any potential blockages (such as bird
nests) before lighting. Additionally, it's a good idea to remove any dust from the wood stove, as it could cause odors during
lighting.
Firewood Storage
Store firewood under cover with good ventilation, preferably in a carport or similar structure. Always stack the firewood on a pallet
or something similar to keep it off the ground. Newly cut or split wood should be stored for about 1-2 years before using it as fuel.
This is to achieve the correct moisture content, which should be around 12-20%.
Ash Disposal
Ash can be disposed of with regular household waste. To ensure the ash doesn't ignite anything in the trash bin, it should be
allowed to cool for 2 days before disposal.
The stove is difficult to control and burns aggressively:
Troubleshooting:
• Set the air control handle to the middle position or move the air control handle from the center towards the left.
• If the stove is over 1 year old or has been used extensively, check the gaskets and replace them if necessary. Gaskets wear
out over time, and heat can cause them to lose their ability to keep the stove door tightly sealed.
• If there is excessive draft in the chimney, it may be necessary to install a damper in the chimney to control the draft. Contact
your dealer for assistance if needed.
The stove burns poorly / doesn't ignite / chimney draft is weak:
Troubleshooting:
• Is there a sufficient bed of embers to ignite the new wood you're placing on?
• Have you placed at least 2 smaller pieces of firewood?
• Is the firewood dry (maximum 20% moisture content)?
• Have you fully opened the air damper?
• Is there enough airflow into the room where the stove is located?
• Specific conditions around the chimney can lead to problems. Is the chimney's diameter and length suitable for the stove?
• Is there anything around the top of the chimney (roof ridge, trees, or similar) that might hinder optimal performance?
• Is the chimney obstructed?
• Are stovepipes and transitions properly sealed?
• Is any cleaning door tightly closed?
• Is there a damper on the pipe or chimney that is closed?
• Is there a liner in the chimney (if it's a masonry chimney)?
• Is the chimney cold and therefore not creating enough updraft/draft?
• Is it necessary to extend the chimney, install a stainless steel liner, or use a chimney fan to create the necessary draft? If the
above doesn't resolve the issue, it may be necessary to contact your dealer or chimney sweep.
