replace with a new one.
5. Ash Removal System Inspection & Cleaning
• Frequency:
Monthly or after burning 50 bags
• By:
Homeowner
a. Be sure the appliance is allowed to cool.
b.
Open the front cast door and cycle the ash removal
handle - these should be inspected for functionality
c. Inspect for any degradation or deformation.
• As the springs heat up and cool down they can
lose tension
•
If there is a gap showing above the fire pot
bottom, approximately 1/16 inch (1.59mm) or
more, it means the springs have lost their tension
•
Lost tension cannot keep the floor in the proper
position causing ignition problems and fuel fall
-
ing into the ash pan. If noted, call your dealer to
replace the springs.
WARNING

Do NOT store fuel:
• Closer than required clearances to combustibles
