e.3 MAiNTeNANce TAsKs
The following maintenance tasks need to be done on a regular base:
e.3.1 cleaning the outer- and inner surface of the stove
clean the surface of the stove with (hot) water and soap. do not use abrasive or sol-
vent based cleaning products as this might result in damage to the surface finish.
e.3.2 cleaning bottomgrate bars and ash pan
surplus of ash must be removed regularly. note the combustion of the wood inside
the stove is better when there is a little layer of ash in the ash pan.
before taking out the ash pan remove remaining ash from the bottomgrate bars by
shaking the de-ashing mechanism firmly (see picture 3) if necessary use a brush.
to empty the ash from the ash pan, open the charging door and slide out the
ash pan (see picture 4) . securely slide back the ash pan after emptying and cle-
aning it.

only provide maintenance to the stove after verifying the stove has inter-

make sure all the ash in the ash pan is completely cooled down to room
temperature as dangerous (fire / burning) situations will occur when the ash
pan is removed and/or emptied when the ash is still hot or when the ash
contains burning parts!

the ash pan might contain very light parts which can easy float out of the
