D. High Ash Fuel Content Maintenance

Frequency: When the ash build-up exceeds the half way point in the fi repot

By: Homeowner

If the ash build-up exceeds the half way point in the fi repot before it automatically cleans, then the fi repot is not being cleaned often enough.

Another symptom is if clinkers are adhering to the sides of the fi repot.

Double check the wall control to ensure the proper setting has been selected for the fuel you are burning. If that is cor- rect, change the setting to “Utility Pellet”.

NOTE: You will need to empty the ash pan more fre- quently if using the “Utility Pellet” setting.

WARNING! Risk of Fire and Smoke!

High ash fuels or lack of maintenance can cause fi repot to overfi ll. Follow proper shutdown procedure if ash buildup exceeds half way point in fi repot.

Failure to do so could result in smoking, sooting and pos- sible hopper fi res.

E. Baffl e Removal

WARNING

Cast iron is a very heavy material. The baffl e is made of cast iron and therefore is heavy and awk- ward at times to maneuver. Clear and prepare your work area before you begin.

a.The appliance must be in complete shutdown, com- pletely cool and the exhaust blower off.

b.Open door.

c.The baffl e is located at the top inside of fi rebox.

d.Remove baffl e by placing a fl at head screw driver into the slot of the latches located in the upper corners and push down. The bottom of the latch will fall forward off of the post. Lift the baffl e up and then out toward you.

Figure 40.2.

e.To replace the baffl e, place the 2 locating ears behind the bottom edge and tilt the baffl e up and into place

f.The baffl e must be centered in the fi rebox before latch- ing it in place. If it is not centered the latch is trapped between the baffl e and side of the fi rebox instead of latching properly.

g.The bottom of the latches will fi t over the posts. Push the top of the latch forward to lock latch into place.
