Cleaning flue pipes
The flue pipes should be cleaned at least 2 x a year or after approx. 700 kg
pellets. The flues are behind the combustion chamber.
Open the convection cover so far that the cover securing mechanism locks into
the designated retaining bracket.
Undo the wing nut and remove the bracket that secures the cover of the heat
exchanger.
You can now lift off the heat exchanger cover and set it to one side.
Now clean the flue gas outlets on the combustion chamber side using the soot
brush.
Vacuum the exposed interior space and the side apertures free of any
contamination.
Re-assembly the parts removed in reverse order.
Cleaning flue main duct
The flue main duct should be cleaned at least 2 x a year or after approx. 700
kg pellets. The flue main duct is located in the lower section of the combustion
chamber
the combustion chamber door
Undo the two knurled screws and remove the cleaning opening.
Vacuum the combustion residues from the flue gas collection duct. Vacuum also
to the left rear side.
Re-assembly the parts removed in reverse order.
Note
Your stove may suck in false air via incorrectly sealed cleaning covers; this
air may lead to incomplete combustion in the fire trough and thus piling
up of pellets. Replace defective (porous, frayed) seals after cleaning and
maintenance in order to a properly function of your pellet stove forever.
