When approximately 1 ton of pellets has been burned it will be necessary to empty the ash pan.

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 com- bustible materials, pending final disposal. If ashes are disposed of byburial in soil or other- wise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.

It is recommended that the stove is cold and shut down when removing ash pan.

1.Pull on latch handle and remove ash pan. Use ash pan handle to carry and dispose of ashes.

2.Slide the ash pan back into the stove and latch the door by pushing in on latch handle.
