Removing Ashes

AshPan Handle

When approximatly 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 combustible materials, pending fi- nal disposal. If ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be re- tained 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 handles and remove ash pan as shown at left. Use ash pan handle to carry and dispose of ashes.

2.Slide the ash pan back into the stove and latch by pushing in on both latches simultaneously.
