SERIES UNITS
The box will operate with up to 3 feet of ash inside, but as the ash gets deeper the effi-
ciency of the unit goes down. Three feet of ash would represent approximately 20
hours of burning. The box should not be run with over 3 feet of ash inside.
We recommend removing the ash every morning before burning operations begin.
This will give you maximum capacity in the FireBox and the ash will be easier to han-
dle.
There is only one way to empty the ash out of the Electrically powered FireBox, name-
ly, by excavating it out.
EXCAVATING
If the box is not going to be moved to dump the ash you can remove it by reaching in
with an excavator or by driving into the box with a small skip loader type vehicle and
scooping the ash out.
Remember to use the appropriate breathing apparatus espe-
cially if you drive in the FireBox and be cautious of the remaining hot embers.
DANGER:
When removing ashes from the FireBox, make
sure that no hot ashes, embers, burning or hot materials are
carried by the wind to places where they could start a fire!
DANGER:
When removing ash from the FireBox be aware of
the wind direction and insure all operators wear appropriate
face masks to prevent inhaling the ash.
