ASH DISPOSAL
During constant use, ashes should be removed
every few days. The Ash Drawer features a
convenient ash drawer for easy removal of
ashes.
Safety Precautions
1)
Do not allow ashes to build up to the loading
doors! Only remove ashes when the fire
has died down. Even then, expect to find
a few hot embers.
2)
Please take care to prevent the build-up of
ash around the start-up air housing located
inside the stove box, near the pilot.
3)
Never start a fire if the ash plug and ash
drawer are not in place. This will cause
overfiring which can cause excessive warp
-
ing of the stove. Evidence of overfiring can
void the warranty on your stove.
4)
The firebricks are brittle and can be damaged
if the plug is replaced carelessly or pieces
that are too large are forced through the
hole.
4)
When emptying the ash drawer, make
sure the ashes have
cooled down com
-
pletely.
Ashes should be placed in a metal
container with a tight fitting lid. The closed
container of ashes should be placed on a
non-combustible floor or on the ground,
well away from all combustible materials,
pending final disposal. If the ashes are
disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise
locally dispersed, they should be retained
in the closed container until all cinders have
thoroughly cooled. Other waste should not
be placed in the ash container.
5)
Before putting the ash drawer back in, ensure
that the ash plug is back in place.

Operating Guideline
1)
Only clean ashes out of the stove when the
unit has cooled down. Remove the plug by
lifting on the handle using the tool provided.
The plug may still be warm, use caution.
Push the ashes down the hole into the ash
drawer, the large pieces can be left in the
firebox and burned during the next fire or
removed through the door opening.
Pull out Ash Drawer
2)
Always leave 1/2 to 1 inch of ash in the
bottom of the firebox. This helps in easier
starting and a more uniform burn of your
fire.
3)
To remove the drawer, slide it out. When
the drawer is completely out, slide the cover
plate over the ash drawer and carry away.
Slide cover plate over Ash Drawer.
