Cooling and Disposing of Ash
Wood Pellets burn very efficiently. You can only get very little ash even after hours of
burning. But pay more attention of cooling and disposing of the ash for your safety.
4.1
When you have finished heating or cooking, allow the oven/stove to burn through all
remaining wood pellets. Once your oven/stove has completely cooled down, follow
the steps below to dispose of any residual ash.
4.2
Please note the wood pellets may still be hot even it looks dark or gray. Always use
the
Hook & Pick Tool
supplied to handle the ash tray. Wear heatproof gloves if
needed. Allow your oven/stove to cool for at least one hour before disposing of ash
or storing. The hook&pick tool can be used as a lever: hold the hole in the ash tray
panel, pull it out and move it with care.
4.3
After a burn and once the oven/stove is completely cooled, clean out any remaining
ashes from on top of the fire grate and in the ash pan. Do not dump an ash pan with hot
embers or pellets into a garbage can or any other combustible area. It will start a fire.
Dump the ash into a metal bucket with water.

Storage
5.1
When you are finished using the oven/stove you should make sure that the fire is
completely out. Allow at least 60 minutes for the oven/stove to cool down.
5.2
All unused wood pellets need to be moved out from the hoppers, feeding tunnels and
combustion chamber. Pellets collect moisture when exposed to the air making them less
flammable and will swell and stick to metal surfaces. Store the oven/stove upright in a
sheltered area away from weather such as rain, snow and dust.
5.3
This unit is manufactured as an “Out
door Unit
’’
from steel. If you leave it in the weather
it will accumulate rust
, even it’s made of stainless steel, the high temperature will make
its surface decolor or rusty a little bit. This is normal and can be treated by using stainless
steel cleaner on the outer shell.
5.4
A Weather Proof Cover & Traveling Tote in One is supplied as accessory (can be
purchased separately). It can protect your oven/stove from exposing to the weather and
easy to store.
