CAUTION

Shock and Smoke Hazard

•Smoke spillage into room can occur if appliance is not cool before unplugging.

1.Types of Fuel

Depending on the type of fuel you are burning will dictate how often you have to clean your firepot.

If the fuel you are burning has a high dirt or ash content or you are burning shelled field corn, it may be necessary to clean the firepot more than once a day.

Dirty fuel will cause clinkers to form in the firepot. A clinker is formed when dirt, ash or a non-burnable substance is heated to 2000°F (1093°C) and becomes glass-like. See “C” page 32 in this section for more details on fuels with high ash content.
