Cleaning and maintenance of the pellet burner
Carry out the following checks and measures as required or when cleaning
the boiler:
• The hearth does not normally require any special maintenance, but it
should be checked for cinder accumulation when emptying ashes. This
should, where required, be removed.
• Refit the burner. Take care and check that no hatch seals are
damaged.
Carry out the following inspections and measures 1–2
times/year.
• Remove the boiler’s primary ring and the primary air pipe.
• Clean dust and shavings from the inside of components. Clean the
slots in the primary ring carefully. Fit the components.
• Check for wear of the dosage wheel’s pins, toothed gear and back
lock. Adjust and replace where required. Where required, lubricate the
drive chain with a little thin oil.
Sintering
Each time a delivery of pellets is received, the hearth should be checked so
that any sintering (continuous ash crust or stone and gravel like particles
in the hearth) is quickly detected. These types of particles must always be
removed from the hearth at short intervals so that the primary ring does not
overheat and become damaged.
Sintering is due to contaminants in the fuel and a claim should immediately
be submitted to the fuel supplier.
!
Only use pellets fuel which meets
standard SS 187120 class 1.
