1. Door Frame
1. Open the firebox door; then scrape the face and
surface area of the door frame to remove any
deposits.
2. Reaction Chamber
1. Carefully remove the refractory as shown in Fig. 61.
Use a hoe to pull the ash to the rear of the furnace;
then use a small shovel to remove all of the ash and
deposits from the Reaction Chamber. Take care not
to damage or move the firebrick, or to damage the
temperature sensor.
NOTE: It is extremely important to clean all the
way to the back of the Reaction Chamber. To
make sure ash is being completely removed,
mark the hoe handle when the hoe is positioned
all the way to the back of the Reaction Chamber.
Use the mark as a reference when removing ash.
CAUTION
Take care not to damage the temperature sensor
when removing ash.

3. Firebox
1. Using a shovel, remove as much ash as possible.
2. Turn the shovel around and push ash from the front
of the furnace below the door frame to the back of
the furnace. Remove as much ash as possible.
NOTE: It can take many days before ash is
completely cooled. Other waste should not be
placed in the same container.
WARNING
When removing ash, be careful not to spill any
coals or ash outside of the noncombustible
container.
3. Using a Wonder Bar or similar type of tool,
completely scrape the area from one inch above the
combustion air outlets down to the center refractory
on the bottom of the firebox. Pay special attention
to scraping the front corners. Scrape any crusty
deposits off the firebox walls. Remove all of this
material by shoveling it out.
