REMOVABLE BAFFLE PLATES (All Models)

At least once a year, the baffle plates (located in the firebox below exchange tubes) should be removed for cleaning (vacuum out, then reinstall baffle plates)

Removing Baffle Plates

The baffle plates contain keyhole slots allowing the screws to remain in place while removing the baffle. Lift each plate up and forward until screws release through the keyhole slots. Remove baffle plates diagonally through door opening.

PHOTOEYE (Freestanding and Insert)

ENSURE STOVE/INSERT IS COLD BEFORE BEGINNING As a part of normal maintenance, buildup of pellet debris (fines) must be periodically removed from the photoeye filter. This filter can be cleaned by following either proce- dure (A) or (B) on this page:

Note: The photoeye views the fire through a filter. The filter is located at the top of the feed chute near the hopper on the right side. This area should be cleaned periodically to prevent excessive build-up, which may cause the stove to go into “fault” mode.

(A) Cleaning Photoeye Filter Without Removing it:

1.Open the front door to access the feed chute.

2.Remove the buildup on the filter as explained in ei- ther “a” or “b” (note: it may help to use a mirror and a flashlight to view the filter as shown in the following picture):

a.Using a long soft bristled brush (i.e. artists brush), extend it deep into the feed chute and sweep away any pellet fines (on right side).

b.Canned compressed air can also be used to re- move pellet debris from the photoeye filter (use only canned compressed air such as what can be com- monly purchased at a computer or office supply store and some drug stores). Read and follow the instructions on the spray can. Attach the tube (straw) to the nozzle on the canned air (a tube is commonly provided with compressed air. It is simi- lar in use to the tube supplied with WD-40, Lubri- cant). Spray the canned air deep into the feed chute until all “fines” are removed (direct it to the right side).

NOTE: The photoeye lens should be inspected annually and cleaned if necessary as shown in method (B).

(B) Removing Photoeye Filter for Cleaning:

1.Lift off cover plate and turn over (the photoeye is at- tached to the inside surface of cover). Wipe away any dust or debris from the photoeye lens (see following pic- tures).
