Air supply
There must be a sufcient supply of air in the room in which the stove is located so that
the burning process is not affected. In a well insulated house or a house with mechanical
ventilation, an opening must be made to the outside in order to guarantee the supply of
air.
Base
Position the stove on a stable surface which is able to bear the weight of the stove.
The oor material must be non-ammable. If this is not the case, it is recommended
a steel or glass oor plate. This oor plate must be large enough to meet the local
regulations. See gure A.
Distance to walls, furniture and other materials
The stove must not be positioned within a distance of 50 centimetres of ammable
materials. The rear of the stove must be at least 20 centimetres from any non-ammable
material for the purpose of heat convection and the supply of air. See gure A.
The recommended minimum distance to furniture is 2 metres.
Assembling the thermostat and the thermometer
The primary air thermostat and the smoke thermometer are supplied separately.
These components must be tted to the stove before use.
- The spiral bimetal strip must be screwed into the rear of the stove. The plastic
protective cover must be removed before the bimetallic strip is screwed into the rear
of the stove (see gure B).
- Screw the handle into the threaded hole until resistance is felt (also t the spring).
- Vision
➞
Turn the handle approximately 45° anticlockwise.
Gourmet and Plus
➞
Turn the handle approximately 45° downwards.
- Hang a chain link on the hook so that the primary valve is just closed.
- Fit the smoke thermometer 30-50 cm from the start of the pipe (as measured from the
stove).
Altering the rear or top connection
The stove connection of the Altech Vision can be changed from the standard top
connection to a rear connection (not applicable for a at top stone). The ame distributor
can be tipped over or taken out to provide more room to unscrew the bolts of the
connection mouth and the sealing plate. The plates can then be unscrewed and swapped
over. The soapstone tile is no longer needed. The plates can then be retted using the
bolts supplied. Make sure the seals are in the correct position. If in doubt, contact your
Altech dealer.
Checking the separate parts
Before using for the rst time, check whether all the separate parts in the stove are in the
correct position. Give extra attention to the ame distributor and the spoiler, since these
may move during transport (see gure C).
