4.
The Exhaust Fan (Combustion Fan) should be removed (may require a new
gasket) and cleaned with compressed air annually. Call dealer for this service.
Annual oiling of the motors is not needed.
5.
The Convection Blower should be removed and cleaned with compressed air
annually. There are 2 oil ports on the motor.
Fall Startup.
Prior to lighting the first fire check the outside area around the exhaust and air
intake systems for obstructions. Try all controls to see that they are working prior to lighting
a fire.
SAFE OPERATION.
1.
Disposal of Ashes.
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 burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed,
they should be retained in the container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
2.
Never use Gasoline,
gasoline type lantern fluid. Kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid
or similar liquids to start or “freshen up” a fire in this heater. Keep all such liquids
well away from the heater while it is in use.
3.
Creosote, Soot and Fly Ash:
Formation and Need for Removal. The products of
combustion will contain small particles of Fly Ash. The fly ash will collect in the
venting system and restrict the flow of flue gases. Incomplete combustion, such as
occurs during start-up and shut-down, or incorrect operation of the room heater
will lead to some soot or creosote formation which will collect in the venting
system. The exhaust system should be inspected regularly during the heating
season to determine if creosote buildup has occurred. Check more frequently at
first to determine a schedule for cleaning the venting system based on individual
use of this Corn/Pellet-burning heater. If creosote has accumulated, it should be
removed to reduce the risk of a chimney fire.
4.
Do not Overfire this unit.
Follow all instructions regarding the proper use of this
heater.
