Cleaning the Door Glass
Always use a soft cloth and glass cleaner (such as Windex, or a mixture of vinegar & water) to clean the glass.
Do not use razor blades or any other hard object to scrape the glass.
Removing Ashes:
When approximately I ton of pellets has been
burned it will be necessary to empty the ash pan.
Disposal of Ashes
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with
a tight fitting lid. The closed container of ashes
should be placed on a noncombustible floor or
on the ground, well away from all combustible
materials, pending final disposal. If ashes are
disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally
dispersed, they should be retained in the closed
container until all cinders have thoroughly

It is recommended that the stove is cold and
shut down when removing ash pan.
I. Open front door of stove and then open the ash
door by pulling downward on the ash lip. Remove
the ash pan (be sure,to wear protective gloves if
the stove is not cooled down). See Fig. 33.
2. Slide the ash pan back into the stove, seating it
against the rear of the firebox. Lift the ash lip to
close the ash door and then close the front door
of the stove.
Cleaning:
The stove should be cleaned after burning ap-
proximately 1 ton of pellets (50 bags). The cleaner
the stove the more efficient it will be. You will burn
less pellets and heat output will be greater.

will require
more frequent cleanings.
1. Shut down stove and disconnect power cord
to insure that all motors are stopped.
2. Clean heat exchanger with scraper as shown in
fig 34.
3. Brush or scrape the inside of the stove to remove
fly ash.
