Element-MF Stove

4.
The Control Board.
Set the heat setting to #1 for a few seconds and return to the
setting it was on. This initiates the time delay for dropping the clinker.
5.
Dropping the coals back into the burn pot. At this time pull the coal rake back out
of the burn pot to drop the coals in the pot.
See position of Coal Rake & Pot
Bottom in figure 25 on page 42 for normal operation.
The time delay in the program will allow a smooth transition back to where the Stove was
burning before the clinker was dropped.
6.
Cleaning the Heat Exchange Tubes. Now you can pull the Tube Scraper back and
forth a couple of times to keep the tubes clean. If the Tube Scraper feels sticky
and difficult to move, check for the presence of creosote on the tubes. If creosote
is present a damper adjustment may be needed or the Multi-Fuel Stove has
become plugged and needs a thorough cleaning. Call Dealer for assistance. To
pull the tube scraper back and forth use the Rod Handle tool that comes with your
stove.
7.
Use a dry paper towel to clean the glass. Quickly open the door and wipe the
glass. The rate of burn will determine how often the window needs cleaning.
Prolonged burning at a slow burn rate will result in the need for more frequent
window cleaning. Periodically shut the Stove down and wipe the window with a
cloth or paper towel and glass cleaner. This will normally keep the window from
accumulating difficult to clean residue. Use of a glass cleaner ONLY permitted
when the unit is cold.
CAUTION:
Do not slam the door. Do not operate the Multi-Fuel Stove with a broken or
cracked glass. Replace only with heat resistant ceramic glass supplied by the
manufacturer.
There are 2 things to keep an eye on during the cleaning process.
1. If the ash pan door or firebox door were left open for more than 60 seconds the Stove
will go into safety shutdown. You will notice that the Multi-Fuel Stove quits augering
fuel into the burn pot. Toggle the On/Off switch off and back on. This will reset the
board. You will need to use the auger feed button to manually feed fuel into the pot
for a couple of minutes until the program resumes.
3.
If the Element-MF has been running for an extended period of time on the #5 setting,
the clinker will sometimes stick to the burn pot. If that happens, pull the coal rake
back out. Open the door and use a long screwdriver and give the clinker a couple
nudges in the pot. (Make sure the burnpot bottom is closed when you do this or you
will lose the coals with the clinker) Then repeat the steps for dropping the clinker.
Remember: The coal rake must be pulled out and the slide bottom pushed in during normal
operation of the Element-MF.
Remember: The fire door and ash pan doors must be in the latched position during normal
operation of the Element-MF.
