2FUEL
The instructions in this chapter refer explicitly to the Italian installation regulation UNI 10683. In any case, always observe the domestic
regulations in force.
FUEL
Below are some useful instructions for the correct use of the product
• Only burn natural, untreated wood with maximum humidity of 20%, which corresponds to cut wood with 2 years of correct drying
(FIG.A).
• All types of wood are suitable, both hard and soft: beech, maple, oak, birch, acacia, r, pine, larch, etc.
• Always use wood that is of the right size and not intact, because a whole log impedes the supply of air inside.
• Always burn the wood horizontally and not standing up
• For each load, always use the amount of wood indicated by the manufacturer and do not load one piece after another, because the
ame would never reach a sucient temperature for proper combustion.
• Do not insert an amount above that indicated to prevent excessive ames with excessively high smoke and wall temperatures.
• The thickness and length of the wood must always comply with the manufacturer’s indications: the size must be about 7-10 cm and
the length (25 or 30cm) depends on the size of the hearth in the combustion chamber. (FIG.B)
Below are some useful indications for the correct storage of the wood:
• stored wood must already be sized for use.
• optimal drying requires a minimum of 2 years (longer times would not lead to a increased drying).
Storage must be:
• well ventilated and aired (FIG.C)
• covered to protect from rain and protected from sunlight, because the wood would lose quality
• not resting directly on the oor but at a distance of about 20-30 cm to prevent rotting.
• At a distance of about 5-10 cm from walls.
• Possibly outside, otherwise in rooms or cellars that are well ventilated, preventing the formation of mold (always leave the window
open!).
• Wood must always be stored at a sucient safe distance from the combustion unit - always comply with the re and safety
regulations.

INSTALLATION
FOREWORD
The installation position must be chosen according to the room, to the smoke extraction system, to the chimney ue. Check with local
authorities whether there are any restrictive regulations in force regarding the combustion air inlet, the smoke outlet system, the
ue or the chimney cap. The manufacturer declines all responsibility in the event of installations that do not comply with the laws in
force, incorrect room air exchange, electrical connection non-compliant with the standards and inappropriate use of the appliance. The
installation must be carried out by a qualied technician, who must issue a declaration of conformity of the system to the purchaser and
will assume full responsibility for nal installation and consequent good operation of the product.
In particular one must ensure that:
• there is a suitable combustion air inlet and smoke outlet in compliance with the type of product installed
• other stoves or devices installed do not cause depression in the room where the product is installed
• when the product is switched on there is no reux of smoke in the room
• fumes extraction takes place in total safety (sizing, smoke seal, distances from ammable materials..).
We especially recommend to check the data tags of the ue for the safety distances that must be observed in presence
of combustible materials and the type of insulating material to be used. These indications must be followed strictly to
prevent serious harm to people and the integrity of the home. The installation of the appliance must ensure easy access to clean the appliance itself, the smoke outlet pipes and the ue. It is forbidden to install the product in rooms with a re hazard.
Installation in studio ats, bedrooms and bathrooms is only allowed with sealed or closed appliances equipped with
suitable combustion air ducting directly outside. Always maintain adequate distance and protection in order to prevent
the product from coming into contact with water.
In the event there are several appliances installed, the external air inlet must be sized accordingly.
MINIMUM DISTANCES
We recommend installing the stove away from walls and furniture, with a minimum clearance to allow eective aeration of the appliance
and a good distribution of heat in the room. Observe the distances from ammable or heat-sensitive objects (sofas, furniture, wood
panelling, etc.) as specied. The front distance from ammable materials must be at least 1 metre.
If particularly delicate objects are present, such as furniture, curtains or sofas, increase the product clearance accordingly.
If the oor is made of combustible material, it is recommended to use protection made of non-combustible material (steel, glass...) that
also protects the front from falling combusted material during cleaning operations.
The appliance must be installed on a oor with adequate load capacity.
If the existing construction does not meet this requirement, one must take appropriate measures (for example a load distribution plate).

SMOKE FLUE
FOREWORD
The Chimney Flue chapter has been drawn up with reference to the provisions of European Standards (EN13384 - EN1443 - EN1856 EN1457).
The chapter provides indications for installing an ecient and correct smoke ue but is under no circumstances to substitute the
regulations in force, which the qualied technician must be in possession of. Check with local authorities whether there are any restrictive
regulations in force regarding the intake of air for combustion, the smoke extraction system, the ue or the chimney.
The company declines all liability relating to the poor functioning of the boiler if this is due to the use of an insuciently sized ue in
violation of regulations in force.
SMOKE FLUE
The ue or chimney is of great importance for the proper operation of a solid fuel-burning heating appliance with natural draught, as
modern heating appliances have high eciency with cooler ue gasses and consequently less draught, it is therefore essential that the
ue is built up to standard and always kept in perfect working order. A ue that serves a wood-burning appliance must be at least category
T400 (or greater if the appliance requires so) and resistant to soot res. Smoke must be extracted through a single ue made of insulated
steel (A) or an existing ue that complies with the intended use (B).
A simple air shaft in cement must be suitably lined. In both solutions there must be an inspection cap (AT) and/or inspection hatch (AP)
- FIG.1.
It is prohibited to connect more than one wood/pellet or any other type of appliance (vent cowling...) to the same ue.

TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Have the eciency of the ue checked by an authorised technician.
The ue must be sealed against ue gasses, in a vertical direction without narrowing, be made with materials impermeable to smoke,
condensation, thermally insulated and suitable to resist normal mechanical stress over time (we recommend replaces made of A/316
or refractory material with insulated round section double chamber). Be suitably insulated externally to avoid condensation and reduce
smoke cooling. It should be separated from combustible or ammable materials with an air gap or insulating materials: check the distance
specied by the manufacturer of the replace according to EN1443. The chimney opening must be in the same room as the appliance,
or at most in the adjoining room, and have a soot and condensation collection chamber beneath the opening, and be accessible via a
watertight metal hatch.

DIMENSIONING
The drop in pressure (draft) of a ue depends on its height. Check the drop in pressure with the values indicated in the technical
characteristics. The minimum height of the chimney is 3.5 meters.
The interior cross-section of the ue can be circular (best variation), square or rectangular (the ratio between the interior sides must be
≤1.5) with the sides joined with a minimum radius of 20 mm. The size of the section must be minimum equal to that of the unit outlet
(smaller diameters must be conrmed by an adequate system size calculation).
The cross-sections/lengths of the chimneys shown in the technical data tables are indications for correct installation. Any alternative
congurations must be correctly dimensioned in accordance with the general method of calculation of UNI EN13384-1 or other proven
eciency methods.
Below is a list of some ues available on the market:
Steel chimney AISI 316 with
double chamber insulated with
ceramic bre or equivalent
resistant up to 400°C.
Refractory chimney with
double insulated chamber and
external lightweight concrete
cladding with cellular material
such as clay.
Traditional square-section clay
chimney with insulating empty
inserts.
Avoid products with an internal
rectangular section where the
larger side is 1.5 times the
smaller side (e.g. 20x40 or
15x30).

4FLUE
MAINTENANCE
The ue must be kept clean, since the deposit of soot or unburned oils reduces the cross-section reducing the draft, thus compromising
the ecient operation of the product and, if large build-ups accumulate, they can catch re. The ue and chimney must be cleaned and
checked by a qualied chimney sweep at least once a year. Once the maintenance has been performed, request a written declaration that
the device is safe.
Failure to clean the system jeopardises the safety.
CHIMNEY
The chimney is a crucial element for the heating appliance to work properly: we recommend a wind proof chimney (A), see Figure 7.
The area of the opening for smoke
extraction must be at least double the
cross-section of the smoke duct/ue
system, and arranged so that smoke
extraction is ensured even in strong
wind. The chimney must prevent rain,
snow or animals from entering the
chimney. The height of outow into
the atmosphere must be beyond the
reux zone created by the shape of the
roof or any obstacles near the outlet
(see Figures 2-3-4-5-6).

EXTERNAL AIR INLET
It is mandatory to provide an adequate external air intake that supplies the combustion air required for the product to work properly. The
ow of air between the outside and the installation room may be direct, through an inlet in an external wall of the room; or indirect, via
air intake from adjoining rooms and connecting permanently with the installation room (see Figure 9 b). Adjoining areas may not include
sleeping areas, garages or general areas with a re hazard. During installation one must check the minimum clearances required for air
intake from outside. Take into account the presence of doors and windows that could interfere with the proper ow of air to the product
(see diagram below).
The air intake must have a minimum total net area of 150 cm2 (for replaces/inserts - 100 cm2 for stoves): the surface must be increased
accordingly if within the room there are other active generators (for example: electric fan for stale air extraction, kitchen hood, other
stoves, etc...), which could cause depression in the room. One must verify that, with all the equipment on, the pressure drop between the
room and the outside does not exceed a value of 4 Pa. If necessary increase the intake section of the air inlet, which must be made at oor
level and always protected with a bird-proof outer protection grid and in such a way that it cannot be obstructed by any object.
One can connect the air required for combustion directly to the external air inlet, with a non-compressible pipe (e.g. spiral). For air ducts
up to 3 m, increase the cross-section by approximately 5%, longer ducts increase it by 15%.

For stoves installed in studio ats, bedrooms and bathrooms (where allowed), it is mandatory to connect the combustion air outside. In
particular for sealed products the connection must be sealed in order not to compromise the overall sealed characteristic of the system.
DISTANCE (metres)The air inlet must be at a distance of:
The connection between the ue and the appliance must be via a smoke duct that conforms with EN 1856-2. To connect the replace to
the chimney ue or to a ceiling connection that is not coaxial to the unit’s smoke outlet, changes of direction must be made using open
bends no greater than 45° with respect to the vertical.
For stoves the connecting section to the ue must extend no more than 2 m horizontally, with a minimum slope of 3% and with a
maximum of 3 90° bends (accessible for inspection - do not count the T tting at the unit outlet).
The diameter of the smoke duct must be equal to or greater than that of the appliance outlet. A possible increase/reduction of the crosssection is only allowed when the ue is connected (in particular the reduction must be conrmed by an adequate system size calculation).

Use smoke ducts that are able to withstand the unit operating temperatures (min. T400). The use of exible metal tubes in bre cement or aluminium is prohibited. For direction changes, we always recommend the use of a T joint with an inspection cap
allowing easy access for cleaning the tubes. Always ensure that the inspection cap is replaced and hermetically sealed with the seal in
tact after cleaning.
It is prohibited to connect more than one appliance to the same smoke duct, or the discharge from overhead cowling. It is prohibited to
extract the products of combustion directly through the wall, whether into indoor spaces or outdoors.
The smoke duct must be installed observing the safety distances from ammable materials as specied on the data plate (e.g. G400=

6INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY
IMPORTANT!
The closed replace must be installed and connected to the ue duct exclusively by a specialised technician, in order
for all local or national regulations to be complied with. Installation must in any case be in accordance with UNI
10683.
When the closed replace is unpacked, check that every part is in per fect working order and no damage has been caused during transport.
Any damage must immediately be reported to the carrier or dealer.
If the closed replace is installed in a place that is dicult to access, the weight can be reduced by removing the internal elements of the
rebox, but it is recommended to put all elements back in place properly and have this operation carried out exclusively by specialised
personnel.
The manufacturer declines all liability if the warning above is not complied with.
PREPARATION AND UNPACKING
Open the package, remove the closed replace from the pallet and set it in the pre-selected place, making sure this complies with the
requirements.
The closed replace must always remain in a VERTICAL position and handled solely with a cart. Do not drag the unit
which could suer damage to the support feet.
A
B
EXAMPLE OF CLOSED FIREPLACE PACKAGE
To remove the closed replace from the pallet act as follows:
• Remove plate A by removing the screws
• Remove the two screws from bracket B
One can then remove the 4 locking brackets "B", after having inserted the feet or wheels (supplied), raising them and tilting them slightly
to enable extraction. Pay particular attention to the door and its glass, protecting them from mechanical knocks that would compromise
their integrity.
Always handle the products with care. If possible, unpack the closed replace near the area
it will be installed in.
The packaging materials are neither toxic nor harmful, and therefore no particular disposal measures are required.
Storage, disposal or any recycling is under the responsibility of the end user in compliance with the applicable laws in force.

CHOICE OF OPERATING MODE
IMPORTANT!
Before installation one must decide which system to use.
The FORMA has the possibility to distribute hot air according to the NATURAL CONVECTION (COMFORT AIR VN) method or FORCED
CONVECTION (COMFORT AIR VF) method via a forced ventilation kit.
Natural convection (COMFORT AIR VN)
In the case of natural ventilation, air enters naturally in the lower part of the closed replace.
Forced convection (COMFORT AIR VF)
If one uses this system, purchase the Comfort Basic Air Kit or the Comfort Air Slim optional kit and follow what is specied in the
instructions contained in each kit.
COUNTERWEIGHTS UNLOCKING
The closed replace is supplied with the sliding counterweights locked to prevent dangerous knocks that could damage the sliding parts,
door and ceramic glass during transportation and positioning.
To unlock the counterweights and therefore the door, remove the screws as shown in gure 1 from both sides of the closed replace in
correspondence of the stickers with arrows placed on both sides.
FIGURE 1 COUNTERWEIGHTS BLOCKING SCREW
Remove the counterweights xing screws only after having positioned the closed replace and to check that the
glass is intact.
DO NOT HANDLE NOR MOVE THE CLOSED FIREPLACE WITHOUT THE COUNTERWEIGHTS FIXING SCREWS.
Damage caused by failure to comply with this rule is under the responsibility of the customer or whoever represents
him.
22
6INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY
POSITIONING
The FORMA WOOD closed replace may be positioned both at an angle or against a wall. One can customise it with the manufacturer's
claddings or build them on site with materials resistant to high temperatures.
The closed replaces are freestanding units that simplify installation and that do not require any additional support. To facilitate moving
the unit to the point in which it must be installed, the manufacturer supplies the closed replace with four swivel wheels that make
moving the closed replace easier and not tiring. (gure 2)
Once the closed replace has been positioned, the wheels must be lifted from the ground or removed, so that the unit is stable on the oor.
This is possible by adjusting the four feet pre-mounted on the closed replace.
Always assess the static conditions of the surface on which the weight of the product will rest and always leave a gap of
at least 5 cm between the chimney and walls.
Dry mount the hearth of the cladding, leaving a 1 cm gap for insulation. (Figure 3)

6INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY
HEIGHT AND LEVEL ADJUSTMENT
The Forma Wood closed replace is equipped with adjustment feet which enable to adjust the level of the closed replace hearth by
approximately 2/3 cm.
If one wishes to raise the closed replace by over 2/3 cm one must create a brickwork pedestal on which to place the product.
In any case do not remove the feet that are essential for levelling.
Removing the feet is considered a structural modication of the product and therefore it makes the warranty void.
Levelling the closed replace is an essential operation for the hearth door to slide properly.
In the event of a oor made of ammable material, the lower part of the closed replace (C) must be at least 5 cm
away from the oor. Fig.4
CHECK THE DOOR SLIDING SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE CLOSING THE FIREPLACE WITH THE CLADDING.
If the closed replace is not positioned level, there is a risk that the door does not close properly and that the internal
counterweights knock against the structure causing noise every time one lifts and lowers the door.
It is recommended to use the wheels (supplied) when one must move the closed replace; the feet are then sucient for levelling.

6INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY
EXTERNAL AND INTERNAL AIR INLET
COMBUSTION AIR INLET
The FORMA WOOD closed replace is predisposed with a rear hole, for the entry of air necessary for combustion. One can move the
combustion air inlet under the product. The following is required to do so:
• Remove the rear ange (g.5).
• Remove the cap in the part underneath the closed replace (g.6).
• With the two screws, x the ange under the closed replace (to then make connection with pipes)
• Position the cap removed (from under the closed replace) in the lower part.
Connect via ø100 anges and a hose (g. 5 o 6) to grilles outside or inside the installation room so that the path is separate from the
natural or forced convection air.
NEVER CLOSE THE COMBUSTION AIR INLET HOLE.
FIGURE 5 REAR COMBUSTION AIR INLET
FIGURE 6 COMBUSTION AIR INLET FROM BENEATH
THE FORMA CLOSED FIREPLACE
NATURAL VENTILATION AIR INLET
If the closed replace is installed with natural ventilation, i.e. without an electric fan, you will need a 300 cm2 external combustion air
inlet (net value) at the back of the unit to allow for a constant ow of fresh air underneath the closed replace.
This requirement must be strictly followed, otherwise the lack of oxygen may aect both combustion and the heat output of the product.
FORCED VENTILATION AIR INLET
If the closed replace is installed with forced ventilation, that is by using a Comfort Air kit, the air inlets and ducting must be conducted
as follows:
• to ensure correct oxygen renewal in the room, we recommend setting up a 150 cm2 external air inlet so that clean, fresh air can be
drawn in and another inlet in the room where the closed replace is placed (again a 150 cm2 air inlet).
• This will ensure that the air inside the room where the equipment is installed is mixed properly and will guarantee better cooling for
the closed replace’s structure.
• If you cannot carry out this kind of connection, you will still need to set up the two air inlets, whether they are both from the inside or
outside. Depending on the choice, you will have slightly higher or lower operating temperatures compared to average values, though
they will not prevent the product from working properly.

25
6INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY
Please bear in mind that:
• All external air inlets must have a closing damper that can be controlled from the outside, along with an insect screen.
• The air inlet section is a net value, so you need to consider the area of any other elements (netting, etc.)
• Periodically clean the lters or netting to ensure the air can pass through
• Do not, for any reason, obstruct the air inlets if the closed replace or ventilation kit is running.
FIGURE 7 CHIMNEY FLUE FITTING
FLUE CONNECTION
It is recommended to connect the closed replace to the ue via aluminised steel pipes and bends able to resist the high temperatures that
are reached in that tract and smoke corrosion. These connections are available upon request in various sizes (see our price list) and simplify
installation as they are assembled by tting one inside the other. (g.7)
Any increases in the section of the tting must be performed directly over the hood of the replace and not along
the chimney ue. Once the installation is complete, it is mandatory to insulate the smoke tting with ceramic bre
blanket or material resistant to at least 600° C.
CLADDING AND COUNTER HOOD ASSEMBLY
READ THE "OPERATION TEST" CHAPTER BEFORE STARTING ANY FIREPLACE CLADDING OPERATION.
The closed replace and the cladding parts must be fastened together WITHOUT COMING INTO CONTACT WITH THE STEEL STRUCTURE
in order to prevent heat from being transmitted to the marble and/or stone and to allow for normal thermal expansion. Pay attention to
the wood nishes, such as beams or shelves.
It is recommended to set up the counter hood made of 15 to 20 mm thick reproof plasterboard with a freestanding frame
made of a galvanised prole to prevent bearing the weight on the cladding components (wooden beams or marble lintels), which do not
have a freestanding structure in order to intervene easily in case of anomalies and/or future maintenance.
Dry mount the hearth of the cladding, leaving a 1 cm gap between the replace and the hearth for insulation. (g.8)
26
6INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY
FIREPLACE INSULATION
The closed replace must always be separated from the adjacent walls and ceiling.
If necessary use insulating materials to insulate the walls in contact with the unit, in case they risk being damaged or even catching re
(walls made of wood, plaster board, etc...). (gure 8)
WOODEN BEAM INSULATION
The wooden beam must be protected with adequate insulation from the hot parts in order to prevent the risk of re or damage to the
cladding (gure 9).
FIGURE 8 BEAM INSULATION
1. INSULATION APPLIED OR TO BE APPLIED
2. BEAM MADE OF WOOD
3. MARBLE OR OTHER MATERIAL
HOOD VENTILATION OUTLETS
Both in the case of installation with natural ventilation and if using the Comfort Air kit for forced ventilation, it is mandatory to install the
manufacturer’s hood ventilation vents or vents that can guarantee the same kind of operation and the same air passage section.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for any damage caused to the structure or the electrical components if this precaution is not
complied with.
For proper room ventilation operation please note that:
• In the lower part of the cladding there must be a convective air inlet that must not be less than 400 cm
• At the top you need to provide for a relief opening (in addition to the ducted vents) of at least 230 cm2 to release the residual heat
into the room. This residual heat builds up inside the cladding (this outlet is not required with the COMFORT AIR KIT, as the heat inside
the cladding is drawn in indirectly by the fans themselves).
This allows to recover part of the structure heat that would otherwise be lost if left inside the cladding, whilst guaranteeing perfect
product operation.

7OPERATION
For a better understanding of the amount, size and function of the ventilation outlets to be installed on the cladding, illustrated below is
an installation example with the relative outlets.
1a) Grille for convection air release
1b) Grille for convection air input
Grilles 1a and 1b are essential for releasing the heat the collects in the hood and it is mandatory to t them regardless of the type of
installation or cladding one must t.
START-UP PRECAUTIONS
Make sure you have read and fully understood the contents of this instruction manual.
Remove all components that could burn from the rebox and door (instructions and various adhesive labels).
Remove the stickers from the ceramic glass otherwise the high temperature could melt them and cause irreparable damage to the glass.
The product can be positioned at an angle or against the wall.
Avoid touching the product during the initial start-up, as the paint completes its drying process and hardens during
this phase. It is good practice to guarantee eective ventilation in the room during the initial start-up, as the
product will emit some smoke and smell of paint, which is absolutely normal!
If necessary, touch up the paint with the spray can of the specic colour.
Do not stand close to the product and air the room. The smoke and smell of paint will disappear after about an hour of operation, however,
remember they are not harmful in any case.
The product will be subject to expansion and contraction during the start-up and cooling phases, therefore light
creaking noises may be heard.
This is absolutely normal as the structure is made of laminated steel and must not be considered a defect.
It is extremely important to make sure the product is not immediately overheated and the temperature increases
gradually.
This will prevent damaging the welds and the steel structure.
Do not expect heating eciency immediately!
OPERATION TEST
ATTENTION !!
BEFORE PERFORMING ANY CLADDING ASSEMBLY OPERATION, CARRY OUT A GENERAL TEST ON THE FIREPLACE
FOLLOWING THE POINTS BELOW:
• Lift and lower the hearth door 7-8 times to check that it slides smoothly and that the counterweights do not cause any noise
against the structure.
• Check that all wiring and the control unit (if one ts the COMFORT AIR VF kit) are distant from the hot body of the closed replace.
• Test at all speeds and ventilation kit modalities (if one ts the COMFORT AIR VF kit).
• Light the re with moderation, to check that the smoke tting has no smoke/soot leaks.
THE MANUFACTURER DECLINES ALL LIABILITY FOR DAMAGE TO THE CLADDING IF THE PREVENTIVE CHECKS ABOVE ARE
NOT CARRIED OUT, RESULTING IN THE DEMOLITION OF THE CLADDING ITSELF TO PERFORM REPAIRS OR ADJUSTMENTS.
28
7OPERATION
STAGES FOR THE FIRST START-UP TEST
• Make sure you have read and fully understood the contents of this instructions manual.
• Remove all components that could burn from the closed replace rebox and door (instructions and various adhesive labels).
• Remove the stickers from the ceramic glass otherwise the high temperature could melt them and cause irreparable damage to the
glass. In this case the manufacturer will not guarantee the glass.
• Open the front combustion air damper completely using the hook supplied.
• Position small sized and thoroughly dry wood (moisture 15/20%). Light the re on moderate power without heating the structure
excessively. Any smells from processing and/or evaporation residues will be emitted the rst few times the replace is lit and will
disappear after it has been used a few times on full power.
• Do not close the sliding door immediately, but leave it open by about 10 cm so that the wood can burn better and so that any internal
moisture can dry out. When the ame is stable close the door completely.
FIGURE 10 MAXIMUM ADJUSTMENT OF COMBUSTION AIR DAMPER
FUEL
FUEL: Wood
In order to achieve maximum eciency from your product, it is of utmost importance to use wood with adequate characteristics.
One can use wood for heating such as oak-beech-ash-robinia-durmast wood or uncoated pressed wood logs. The latter have a high caloric value and must be used with caution to avoid overheating that could damage the product.Fuels such as poplar-pinelinden-chestnut have a low caloric value as the wood is soft. The humidity content is fundamental for all types of wood.

7OPERATION
A high percentage of moisture causes condensation in the smoke duct, thereby causing an alteration to the draught and generating smoke
and considerable soot deposits in the rebox, on the glass of the door and on the product, with the subsequent risk of this catching re. It
also leads to a much lower overall eciency.
The use of humid or treated wood releases a greater amount of smoke than usual, which could dirty the glass more quickly. Poor chimney
performance can also compromise the cleanliness of the glass, as the smoke remains in the combustion chamber longer than usual.
Do not use treated fuels (painted or lacquered wood) or non-compliant fuels (plastic or derivatives), which could
release toxic substances or pollutants.
Do not burn waste.
The gases produced by combustion of unsuitable fuel could damage the product and pollute and compromise your
health.
FIRST IGNITION
A NOTE REGARDING PAINT EXHALATION
It is recommended to air the room before the rst start-up to evacuate any smells and/or fumes emitted by the paint
during the drying and hardening phase due to the heat.
Do not stand close to the stove and as mentioned, air the room. The smoke and smell of paint will disappear after
about an hour of operation, however, remember they are not harmful in any case.
It is recommended to rst start-up the product using ne and seasoned wood.
The combustion air inlet must be completely open. When combustion has started up, normal sized wood can be introduced.
Each time the wood is loaded, the door must be opened slowly to prevent smoke blow back in the room.
Proceed as follows:
• place a small ball of scrunched up paper into the product.
• Cover the paper with a few twigs and a few pieces of wood.
• Turn the lever completely to the right (MAX).
• Light the paper and if necessary keep the door ajar for a few minutes until the combustion chamber and the ue begin to warm up.
• The door can be closed once the twigs start to burn.
As the re gradually burns, add wood. Never overload the product with wood (see the technical data in the table).
As soon as the ames have died down and a bed of embers has formed, load the product normally.
Small loads are preferable to large loads of wood for combustion.
It is recommended to adopt this fuel loading method also in subsequent product use.
To achieve the nominal output and optimal combustion, load the amount of wood and comply with the loading
interval indicated in the technical data table (Chapter 3).
30
7OPERATION
FUEL LOADING
For normal fuel loading simply open the hearth door acting with the supplied cold handle on one of the outlets to the right or left of the
closed replace, as shown in gure 11-12-13. Simply insert the cold handle into the hole and lift the door upwards. To close the door
perform the same procedure in reverse order.
During use the metal structure and glass reach high temperatures, so use suitable thermal protection (for example
gloves). During normal use always keep the hearth door completely lowered/closed, as intermediate positions cause anomalous
combustion (forge eect); a rapid consumption of wood may also cause release of smoke due to the high temperatures of the replace.
Open the door solely for fuel loading operations and only for brief periods.
The closed replace has maximum eciency and works best with the door closed, as the combustion chamber tightness and the calibrated
oxygen input enable to raise performance levels.
Nominal combustion lasts 50 minutes. Therefore to achieve the nominal hourly loading envisaged in the table in
chapter 3, load the amount expressed in brackets in the same table every 50 minutes.

FIGURE 13 HEARTH DOOR OPENING / CLOSING FORMA T95
The closed replace package contains a handle that can be installed on the door (as per instructions supplied with
the handle).
COMBUSTION CONTROL
PRIMARY AIR
Primary air enters directly via the openings present between the casing and structure of the closed replace. This air enables combustion.
My moving the supplied lever to the right as shown in the gure, one has full opening with faster combustion while if it is moved to the
left one has closure with slower combustion.
The lever turned towards MAX is designed to bring a large quantity of primary air beneath the replace hearth, to allow rapid and eective
ignition of the re.
Air for cleaning the glass enters directly from the door with a xed passage section, both in MAX and MIN combustion modes.
FIGURE 14 ADJUSTMENT OF PRIMARY/SECONDARY AIR
32
7OPERATION
SECONDARY AIR
Adjustment is carried out with the same lever for primary air. Secondary air is released proportionally to primary air in a pre-calculated
balance that the user can never change incurring in wrong adjustments. One will thus not have combustion excesses. Secondary air
allows the combustion process to be completed and enhances eciency. In the left position (Min) one decreases the amount of air in the
combustion chamber where i.e. only a minimum amount of primary and secondary air is present.
This position is used to prolong combustion (for instance, at night, or when you are not at home) so that the stove is set to minimum for
auto-combustion, to save on fuel and keep the ame burning.
The use of humid or treated wood releases a greater amount of smoke than usual, which could dirty the glass more
quickly. The poor performance of the ue pipe can also compromise the cleanliness of the glass, considering that the
smoke remains in the combustion chamber longer than usual.
DOOR OPENING SWITCH
On closed replaces there is a switch installed by MCZ and in the case of forced ventilation, it turns o the fans when the door of the closed
replace is open (see the relative manual for the basic-slim comfort air kit).
QUICK RESPONSE
If for any reason one needs to extinguish the re in the stove suddenly and quickly or put out a re that has started in the ue pipe, act
as follows:
• Time permitting, remove the embers and ashes using a metal container.
• Request immediate help from the relative organisations.

8MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
ATTENTION!
All cleaning operations of all parts must be performed when the closed replace is completely cold.
CLEANING PERFORMED BY THE USER
CLEANING THE GLASS
The glass can be cleaned with specic products (see our price list), with a cloth soaked in a water and ammonia solution or a little white
ash and a sheet of newspaper.
To open the door (gure 15-16) to clean the glass, LOWER THE GLASS COMPLETELY and open the door as shown in the gure, using the
cold handle supplied. One does not need to block the door opening as, in the "Forma right/left" version, once the handle is lowered, this
blocks the sliding system, while in the “T50/T95” version, when one pulls the handle towards point B, this prevents the sliding opening.
To close repeat the stages described above in the reverse order.
DURING OPENING BUT ESPECIALLY CLOSING ACCOMPANY THE DOOR WITHOUT FORCING IT.
FOR EXAMPLE FORCING THE DOOR DOWNWARDS WHEN CLOSING COULD MAKE THE GLASS KNOCK AGAINST THE MANTEL AT THE
BOTTOM OF THE FIREPLACE, BREAKING IT.
ATTENTION!
Do not spray the product onto the painted parts or onto the door gaskets (ceramic bre cord)

8MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
CLEANING THE ASH
One recommends adequate cleaning of the hearth for proper combustion. To remove the ash from the hearth use a metal scoop and brush
and store the ash in non-ammable containers for transport.
Hot ashes must not be stored outside unsupervised or thrown into the rubbish bin. Allow it to cool in the open air in a
metal container.
CLEANING THE REFRACTORY PARTS (ALUTEC®)
They do not require any cleaning as the characteristic of this material (ALUTEC®) is that it does not absorb soot but instead it repels it when
the replace is hot. After the start-up stage in which the replace tends to tarnish, the refractory par ts will turn white again, starting from
the base of the ame, when the combustion chamber reaches working temperature (~ 400° C).
If this phenomena does not take place it may be caused by:
• Damp or resinous wood that does not emit sucient heat or that dirties the combustion chamber
• Chimney with poor performance and therefore smoke stays in the combustion chamber for too long, dirtying the rebox
• Chimney with low performance that does not allow the closed replace to reach high eciency and therefore adequate temperatures
for the refractory parts.
Never clean the refractory parts with a damp cloth or other as it could get stained.
If required use a dry paintbrush to remove thick accumulations of soot.
Should the Alutec not whiten, it must not be considered as a defect in light of the warnings and indications reported
above.
CLEANING PERFORMED BY A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN
CLEANING THE CHIMNEY
We recommend the mechanical cleaning of the ue pipe at least once a year; excess build-up of unburned waste could cause problems
with the smoke outlet pipe and start a re in the ue pipe itself. To clean the chimney ue by accessing from the appliance, remove the
smoke deector: to remove it properly lift it from the front part and make it simultaneously come forwards to free it from the resting
supports at the back.
