MAINTENANCE

SMALL AREA PAINT TOUCH-UP

The stove body is painted with a quality high- temperature stove paint. Use only model TSPK-B Stove Paint, Catalog # 70K99. Do not touch-up your stove with any other paint.

Using one small piece of 320 grit sand paper and lightly sand the blemish so that the edges are “feathered” or smooth to the touch between the painted and bare sur- faces. Do not let the sand paper gum up with paint, as this will cause scratches on the metal surface. If there are any scratches, use 600 grit sandpaper instead. Mask off surfaces you do not want painted. Paint lightly over the bare surface first as this will act as an under- coat. Then paint over a larger area in smooth even strokes to blend.

See Break-In Period on page 14 for information on curing the paint.

ASH REMOVAL AND DISPOSAL

CAUTION: MAKE SURE THAT THE FIRE IS OUT AND THE STOVE IS COLD BEFORE REMOVING ASHES FROM FIREBOX!

Ashes can hold live embers for several days, and must be disposed of with care.

NEVER place ashes in a cardboard box or any other combustible receptacle.

Proper 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 dis- posal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or other wise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.

DOOR AND GLASS GASKETS

An 1/2" (13 mm) spun fiberglass gasket provides the seal around the fuel door, a 1/8” x 1” (3.2 mm x 25.4

mm)flat woven gasket glass provides the seal around the door glass and the side windows have a 1/8” (3.2

mm)thick lytherm gasket Should these gaskets become frayed or damaged, they should be replaced with the same size and type as the original gasket. Contact your dealer for ordering. Use high temperature silicone sealer as an adhesive for the fuel door gasket. The (door) glass gasket has a self-adhesive backing. The side window gasket does not require an adhesive (see Replacement Parts, pages 23-24).

WARNING: THE GASKETS MUST BE KEPT IN GOOD

CONDITION. DO NOT LEAVE THE STOVE BURNING WITH THE DOOR OPEN OR AJAR. THIS WILL CAUSE EXCESSIVE HEAT BUILD UP IN THE UNIT AND COULD IGNITE SURROUNDING COMBUSTIBLES AS WELL AS DAMAGE THE STOVE BY OVERFIRING IT. OVERFIRING IS A CONDITION WHERE EXCESSIVE TEMPERATURES ARE REACHED, BEYOND THE DESIGN CAPABILITIES OF THE STOVE (SUCH DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED BY THE MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY).

SERVICING GLASS

CAUTION: BE CAREFUL NOT TO ABUSE DOOR ASSEMBLY BY STRIKING OR SLAMMING IT. IF THE DOOR ASSEMBLY OR GLASS IS BROKEN OR DAMAGED, THEY MUST BE REPLACED BEFORE HEATER CAN BE SAFELY OPERATED. USE ONLY COMPONENTS PROVIDED BY THE MANUFAC- TURER AS REPLACEMENT PARTS.

Cleaning Glass: Ensure stove is cold prior to cleaning glass. A commercial glass cleaner designed for stoves is recommended. Do not use abrasive cleaners.

Replacing Glass:

1.Remove door from stove by lifting door up and off hinge pins: Place the door on a flat protected (towel) clean flat surface with the inside of the door facing up. Remove the glass clips (by removing screws holding clips), then carefully remove broken glass one piece at a time (protective gloves are recom- mended).

2.Clean the area where the glass with gasket will be installed.

3.Install new glass with gasket (use only factory 5-mm glass with glass channel gasket. Do not substitute). Carefully reinstall glass clips. Be very careful not to overtighten screws.

4.Reinstall door.
