The small Fines Tray in the side of the stoker
should be removed and emptied
To remove the Fines Tray, rst open the door on
the left rear of the stove. Next, loosen the thumb
screws holding the Fines Tray Cover, g# 20. Next,
turn the cover 90 degrees and slide out the Tray as
shown. If the Tray has over- owed, use a vacuum
cleaner to reach into the opening and remove the
excess material.

Turn the temperature control to lowest setting and
allow the stove to cool down. Have all cleaning
supplies ready and close by. Take note at which #
the Feed Adjuster is set, g 14. Turn Feed Adjuster
knob to "Ash Out". (This is the ash removal setting.)
This setting turns "off" the Combustion Blower
and Feeder Motor but does not turn "off" the Draft
Motor. Now the viewing door can be opened with
minimal exhaust leakage. Use a safety razor in
handle and scrape the inside of the glass with the
blade almost at to the surface, Fig 21. If further
cleaning is necessary, the window can now be
cleaned with liquid cleaner and a non synthetic
cloth.  

minutes, the Distribution Blower will start to cycle up
and down to indicate the Feed Adjuster knob was
left in the "Ash Out" (ash removal setting). This is
not a problem, just remember to return the Feed
Adjuster to its previous setting when completed.

The products of combustion will contain small
particles of y ash. The y ash will collect in the
exhaust venting system and restrict the ow of the
ue gases. Incomplete combustion, such as occurs
during startup, shutdown, or incorrect operation of
the room heater, will lead to some soot formation
which will collect in the exhaust venting system.
The exhaust venting system should be inspected
at least once every year to determine if cleaning
is necessary.
