Maintenance

(Cleaning continued)
5. Remove the ash pan.
6. Remove the combustion blower cover by turning
the blower cover latch vertical  as shown in fig. 32.
Slide  the cover  out  of  the slot  on  the  left. This  will
expose the combustion blower wheel and flue outlet,
fig. 35.
7. Clean the blower wheel with a brush and a vacuum
cleaner.
8. Use a brush to clean the flue, being careful not to
damage  the  ESP  probe.  The  flue  goes  straight
through  into  the  vent  pipe  therefore,  the  vent  pipe
can also be cleaned to some extent through the flue
outlet.
9. Reinstall the blower cover and relatch.
10. Slide ash pan into the stove and latch into place.

Cleaning  of  Feeder  Fines  Area

1.  Remove  the  rear  shields  to  access  the  feeder
cover.
2.  Remove  the  wing  nut  on  the  feeder  cover  and
slide the cover off the threaded rod.
3. Remove all fines with a vacuum.

Soot  and  Fly Ash

The products  of combustion will  contain small

particles  of  fly  ash.    The  fly  ash  will  collect  in  the
exhaust venting system and restrict the flow of the
flue  gases.    Incomplete  combustion,  such  as  oc-
curs  during  startup,  shutdown,  or  incorrect  opera-
tion of the room heater, will lead to some soot for-
mation which will collect in the exhaust venting sys-
tem.    The  exhaust  venting  system  should  be  in-
spected after the first month of burning to determine
the frequency of cleaning that will be required. NOTE:
The frequency could vary from once a month to once
a season depending on the quality of the fuel being
used.
