Take care when opening the large door.
5)
Only the fine ash should be removed, leaving the semi burnt pellets
around the tuyeres inside the boiler.

Clean the small hole for the combustion chamber pressure switch
sensing point, which is found on the L.H.S. of the combustion
chamber, close to the boiler door.
7)
Close the door and reset both selector switches to the
“Auto”
positions.
