ASH REMOVAL & DISPOSAL
CAUTION:
ALLOW THE STOVE TO COOL BEFORE
PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE OR
CLEANING. ASHES MUST BE DISPOSED IN A
METAL CONTAINER WITH A TIGHT FITTING
LID. THE CLOSED CONTAINER OF ASHES
SHOULD BE PLACED ON A NON-COMBUSTIBLE
SURFACE OR ON THE GROUND, WELL AWAY
FROM ALL COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS,
PENDING FINAL DISPOSAL.
Remove the ashes periodically to avoid unnecessary
ash build up. Remove ashes when unit has cooled.
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a
tight fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should
be placed on a noncombustible floor or on the
ground, well away from all combustible materials,
pending final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of
by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they
should be retained in the closed container until all
embers have been thoroughly cooled. The container
shall not be used for other trash or waste disposal. If
combined with combustible substances, ashes and
embers may ignite. Ash removal is as follows:
1. Let the fire burn out and allow the unit to cool
to room temperature.
2. Make sure the pellet stove is at room
temperature before touching. Open the door,
remove the burn pot and empty it into a metal
container.
3. Vacuum ashes from the firebox. BE SURE THAT
ASHES ARE COOL TO THE TOUCH BEFORE
VACUUMING. Some vacuum cleaners may leak
ash into the room. Your vacuum cleaner should
have a special filter or bag to eliminate leakage.
4. Reinstall the burn pot.
SMOKE & CO MONITORS
Burning wood naturally produces smoke and
carbon monoxide(CO) emissions. CO is a poisonous
gas when exposed to elevated concentrations
for extended periods of time. While the modern
combustion systems in heaters drastically reduce
the amount of CO emitted out the chimney,
exposure to the gases in closed or confined areas
can be dangerous. Make sure you stove gaskets
and chimney joints are in good working order and
sealing properly to ensure unintended exposure. It
is recommended that you use both smoke and CO
monitors in areas having the potential to generate
CO.
CHECK & CLEAN THE HOPPER
Check the hopper periodically to determine if there
is any sawdust (fines) that is building up in the feed
system or pellets that are sticking to the hopper
surface. Clean as needed.
DOOR & GLASS GASKETS
Inspect the main door and glass window gaskets
periodically. The main door may need to be removed
to have frayed, broken, or compacted gaskets
replaced by your authorized dealer. This unit’s door
uses a 5/8” diameter rope gasket.
BLOWER MOTORS
Clean the air holes on the motors of both the
exhaust and distribution blowers annually. Remove
the exhaust blower from the exhaust duct and
clean out the internal fan blades as part of your fall
start-up. If you have indoor pets your power motors
should be inspected monthly to make sure they
are free of animal hair build up. Animal hair build
up in blowers can result in poor performance or
unforeseen safety hazards.
PAINTED SURFACES
Painted surfaces may be wiped down with a damp
cloth. If scratches appear, or you wish to renew your
paint, contact your authorized dealer to obtain a
can of suitable high-temperature paint.
GLASS
We recommend using a high quality glass cleaner.
Should a buildup of creosote or carbon accumulate,
you may wish to use 000 steel wool and water to
clean the glass. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners. DO
NOT perform the cleaning while the glass is HOT.
Do not attempt to operate the unit with broken
glass. Replacement glass may be purchased from
your U.S. Stove dealer. If glass is broken, follow these
removal procedures:
1. Once the heater has cooled, remove the door
from the heater.
2. Remove the rope gasket from the door along
with the screws holding the glass retainer in
place and the glass retainer.
3. While wearing leather gloves (or any other
gloves suitable for handling broken glass),
