OPERATING AND CLEANING

CAUTION: DO NOT operate stove with ash removal system door open. Ensure that embers have cooled completely before removing ash.

1.When stove is cool, open front door and brush most of the ash into the center of the firebox. Remember to leave 1/4” to 1/2” (6-13mm) of ash on the firebox floor to act as a natural grate, allowing air to flow freely underneath wood .

2.Clean ash down through the ash re- moval system grate into the drawer be- low. If there are large pieces in the ashes, you can remove the grate before clean- ing the ash into the drawer. Be sure to replace the grate before operating the stove.

3.Release latch on side of ash removal door (see Figure 23).
