The End Of Season Shut Down List.
1. Allow the stove to run out of coal in order to extin-
guish the re. This saves having to remove the coal
from the hopper manually and most importantly,
drives the moisture out of the stove that may be
present in the coal.
2. Perform all the steps of the 3 month maintenance
list.
3. Clean the glass as shown in g.21.
4. Empty the nes tray and inspect the area for rust
and corrosion
5. Make sure the hopper is empty. Wet or damp coal
in the hopper will promote rust.
6. Remove the FSS Tube from the rear of the rebox
(g.27) and clean the brass tting going into the
rebox with a pipe cleaner. Reconnect tube.
7. The FSS line lter can be changed annually to
insure proper ow, however, it may only be neces-
sary if the lter is discolored.
8. Remember to cover the ue pipe over the summer
to block out rodents and birds. Place a note inside
the unit to remind yourself or others not to forget
to uncover the ue pipe before lighting a re.
Prevent Rust
Summertime moisture and high humidity are
your stove's enemy. A clean stove will have less
y ash and nes to absorb moisture and cause rust
and corrosion. Allowing wet coal to remain in the
hopper of a cold stove will promote the formation of
rust and corrosion. Some owners choose to spray a
light coating of oil on all internal workings and the
rebox as a rust inhibitor.
Annual Service
It is recommended that your DVC500 is serviced
annually by your trained Harman dealer. The best time
for this service is during a non-use period. You may
choose to combine this service with the end of season
maintenance.
