Empty Fines Tray

The small Fines Tray in the side of the stoker should be removed and emptied

To remove the Fines Tray, first open the door on the left rear of the stove. Next, loosen the thumb screws holding the Fines Tray Cover, fig# 20. Next, turn the cover 90 degrees and slide out the Tray as shown. If the Tray has over- flowed, use a vacuum cleaner to reach into the opening and remove the excess material.

Cleaning Glass While Unit Is Burning:

Caution: The glass and door frame will be hot, gloves must be worn.

Turn the temperature control to lowest setting and allow the stove to cool down. Have all cleaning supplies ready and close by. Take note at which # the Feed Adjuster is set, fig 14. Turn Feed Adjuster knob to "Ash Out". (This is the ash removal setting.) This setting turns "off" the Combustion Blower and Feeder Motor but does not turn "off" the Draft Motor. Now the viewing door can be opened with minimal exhaust leakage. Use a safety razor in handle and scrape the inside of the glass with the blade almost flat to the surface, Fig 21. If further cleaning is necessary, the window can now be cleaned with liquid cleaner and a non synthetic cloth. CAUTION: Do not spray cleaner directly on Hot Glass. If the cleaning takes more than 4 minutes, the Distribution Blower will start to cycle up and down to indicate the Feed Adjuster knob was left in the "Ash Out" (ash removal setting). This is not a problem, just remember to return the FeedAdjuster to its previous setting when completed.

Soot and Fly Ash

The products of combustion will contain small particles of fly ash. The fly ash will collect in the exhaust venting system and restrict the flow of the flue gases. Incomplete combustion, such as occurs during startup, shutdown, or incorrect operation of the room heater, will lead to some soot formation which will collect in the exhaust venting system. The exhaust venting system should be inspected at least once every year to determine if cleaning is necessary.
