A. Quick Reference Maintenance Guide |

BAFFLE & BLANKET PLACEMENT | INSPECT FIREBRICKS & ASH GRATE | |
|
| (AFTER EACH CLEANING) |
Baffle and blanket placement is critical to heat out- put, efficiency and overall life of the unit. Make sure the baffle is pushed all of the way to the back of the firebox and the blanket is laying flat.
Step Top Models Only
Firebrick is designed to protect your firebox. Replace firebricks that are crumbling, cracked or broken. If you have an optional ash door, check to make sure the door is closing properly.
CHIMNEY & CAP INSPECTION
The chimney and chimney cap must be inspected for soot and creosote during the burn season. This will prevent pipe blockage, poor draft, and chimney fires.
Always burn dry wood to help prevent cap blockage and creosote
DOOR & LATCH CHECK
Keeping the door and glass gasket in good shape will maintain good burn times on a low burn setting.
Check the glass frame for loose screws to prevent air leakage.
Check the door latch for proper adjustment. This is very important especially after the door rope has formed to the stove face.
Start the first inspection of your unit af- ter the first 2 months of use, or if perfor- mance changes, and adjust your sched- ule accordingly.
Maintenance is required for safe oper- ation and must be performed to main- tain your warranty.
