NOTES ON REPLACING THE VISUAL DEFLECTOR 

When replacing the visual deflector, follow steps “a” and “b” in reverse order (see previous page).  
After you have repeated this process a couple times, it will become easier.  When in place, make sure 
the visual deflector is pressed down fully on the right side.  The visual deflector holds the burn 
platform in place and keeps it properly aligned during operation.  If it is not fully seated, airflow to the 
burn platform may be displaced and the appliance m burn poorly.

 

   

 

3.  Use the cleaning tool to scrape away hardened clinkers or buildup on the fire platform. Use the narrow 

tip to clear any plugged holes. The fire platform must be free from buildup for the pellets to burn 
completely.
