CLEANING
THE
OUTSIDE
OF
THE
APPLIANCE:
The
stove
and
doors
of
the
appliance
are
solid
cast
iron
and
painted
with
a
heat
proof
paint.
These
can
also
be
cleaned
with
a
lint
free
damp
cloth,
then
wiped
over
with
a
dry
cloth.
Should
re
‐
painting
be
necessarry,
contact
your
local
supplier
for
a
can
of
paint.
The
appliance
has
one
main
surface
finish;
This
should
be
cleaned
when
the
appliance
is
cool.
The
cooking
surface
(if
chosen
option)
is
cast
iron
and
can
be
cleaned
with
a
lint
free
damp
cloth.
Do
not
leave
this
surface
wet
as
it
will
go
rusty.
12D
ASH
REMOVAL:
The
appliance
need
to
have
the
ash
removed
from
the
ash
pan
and
fire
chamber
on
a
regular
basis.
You
can
remove
the
ash
from
the
fire
chamber
and
ash
pan
by
using
a
suitable
tool
(i.e
a
brush
or
specialised
ash
vacuum)
You
need
to
insure
all
air
vents
are
clear
of
ash,
there
is
no
ash
build
up
on
baffles
or
firebricks
and
that
excess
build
up
of
ash
is
removed
from
all
parts
of
the
stove.
This
needs
to
be
done
as
and
when
necessary
to
maintain
free
movement
of
air
inside
the
stove.
The
efficient
operation
of
your
appliance
is
dependant
on
its
correct
operation
and
maintenance.
Leaving
soot
to
accumulate
inside
the
areas
mentioned
above,
will
drastically
reduce
the
output
of
the
appliance
and
prevent
it
from
doing
what
it
is
designed
to.
12E
GLASS
CLEANING:
There
are
various
glass
cleaners
you
can
buy
at
stove
shops
that
are
specially
designed
to
remove
hydrocarbon
(soot)
and
fly
ash
(mineral)
deposits
from
the
glass.
Follow
the
manufacturers
instructions.
Typically,
just
spray
a
small
amount
of
cleaner
on
the
glass
and
use
a
paper
towel
or
rag
to
wipe
it
clean.
If
you
only
burn
logs
in
your
appliance,
then
you
can
dip
a
damp
cloth
in
the
ash
and
use
this
to
scrub
the
glass
clean.
12F
FLUE
MAINTAINENCE:
If
your
appliance
is
installed
into
an
existing
chimney,
you
will
need
to
clean
the
chimney
as
well
as
the
flue
pipe
at
least
twice
a
year.
To
do
this
you
will
need
the
appropriate
sized
chimney
brush
and
rods.
Call
a
certified
chimney
sweep
(National
Association
of
Chimney
Sweeps)
or
other
qualified
professional
to
clean
the
flue
system.
These
professionals
have
the
equipment
and
the
experience
to
do
a
thorough
job.
The
sweep
will
advise
you
as
to
the
intervals
that
you
should
have
your
flue
swept.
We
would
recommend
that
you
have
it
swept
at
least
twice
a
year,
but
you
may
need
to
sweep
it
more.
Get
them
to
inspect
the
condition
of
all
the
associated
chimney
items
at
the
same
time.
Be
sure
to
check
the
pipe
at
least
once
every
six
months
to
determine
if
it
has
corroded.
12G
ROPE
SEALS:
For
the
appliance
to
operate
correctly,
it
is
important
that
all
the
seals;
where
fitted;
are
in
good
condition
and
are
sealing
correctly.
They
should
be
replaced
if
they
are
showing
excessive
signs
of
fraying
and
are
not
making
a
good
seal.
They
are
glued
into
position
using
a
high
temperature,
flexible,
silicone
sealant
12H
AIR
CONTROLS:
Ensure
that
all
the
air
controls
operate
smoothly
and
are
free
from
ash
or
other
foreign
bodies.
