10.Cleaning the Hopper

•Frequency: Monthly or every 50 bags of fuel

•By: Homeowner

After burning approximately 1 ton of fuel you will need to clean the hopper to prevent sawdust build-up. A combi- nation of sawdust and pellets on the auger reduces the amount of fuel supply to the ﬁ repot. This can result in nuisance shutdowns and mis-starts.

1.The appliance must be in complete shutdown. Allow the appliance to completely cool down.

2Empty the hopper of any remaining pellets.

3. Vacuum the hopper and feed tube.

11.Cleaning Exhaust Blower - Requires No Lubrication

a.Be sure the appliance is allowed to cool, has been unplugged and the exhaust blower is off.

b.Remove all ash from the ﬁ rebox and vacuum thoroughly.

c.Paint all exposed steel, including cast-iron.

•Use the Touch-Up paint supplied with the appliance; or,

•Purchase paint from your local dealer.

•Must use a high-temperature paint made speciﬁ- cially for heating appliances.

a.Remove left & right cast brick. The exhaust blower is behind the right cast brick. Vacuum this area thoroughly. See pages 39 & 40 for removing the cast bricks. Re-install cast bricks when done.

12.Cleaning Convection Blower - Requires No Lubrication

•Frequency: Yearly or as needed

•By: Qualiﬁ ed Service Technician

•Task: Contact your local dealer.

13.Soot and Fly Ash: Formation & Need for Removal in Exhaust Venting System.

•Frequency: Yearly or more frequently depending on ash build-up

•By: Qualiﬁ ed Service Technician/Homeowner

The products of combustion will contain small particles of ﬂ y ash. The ﬂ y ash will collect in the exhaust venting system and restrict the ﬂ ow of the ﬂ ue gases. At start-up if there is incomplete combustion, or if there is a shut- down or incorrect operation of the appliance it will lead to some soot formation. This will collect in the exhaust venting system.

The venting (chimney) system may need to be cleaned at least once a year or more often depending upon the quality of your fuel or if there is a lot of horizontal pipe sections. Ash will build up more quickly in the horizontal sections.
