Operating Instructions

Start-up and operation

Logano G201 - Subject to technical modifications.

V Insert a layer of paper [2].

V Insert a 3 to 4 inch layer of fuel (thin kindling, coal or

coke) on the paper layer [2]. Do not use any thick logs.

V Light the fuel inside the boiler.

V If you are using solid accelerant (coal igniter), light the

accelerant outside of the boiler and then place it on the

ignition material.

V Fold the front grate upwards and insert the segment

plate.

V Leave the ash pan door slightly open.

V Let the fuel burn for 15 – 20 minutes until there are

embers.

V Close the ash pan door.

1 Fuel (e.g. wood)

2 Paper layer

V Open the fuel filler door and fill the ignition chamber [1]

to ¼ of its volume with fuel.

V Close the fuel filler door.

V To prevent heat losses in the chimney, close the

exhaust flap depending on the flue draft (Æ Fig. 11).

If the flue gases are not drawing properly (flue draft is

not sufficient), open the exhaust flap a little again

(Æ Fig. 8, page 13).

Before the fuel space [1] is filled, the fuel in-

serted must be completely burned off and

there must be sufficient embers.

The heating-up time may vary depending on

how clean the boiler is, the local conditions,

the fuels used, and the weather (low pressure

in the flue gas system).

With wood firing, note: logs that are too short

and too thick cause uneven burning.

V Only use logs of the specified thickness

and length (Æ Chapter 3.1, page 8).

Large types of anthracite coal and coke burn

longer; with too great a quantity of fuel, the

output can be reduced. Check and stoke the

fire at short intervals.
