DISASSEMBLY
Clear a space for storing parts as you take the stove apart.
You will need pliers, a 7/16” socket wrench or open end wrench, a 5/32” Allen wrench and a
Phillips head screwdriver to remove nuts and bolts and screws. You will need a dead blow
hammer to dislodge parts which have been cemented together. A conventional, steel hammer and
block of wood may be used in place of the dead blow hammer. Use the block of wood to protect
the metal parts from direct blows of the steel hammer.
These directions will tell you what screws or nuts should be removed during the disassembly of
your stove. Some hex head screws in the top and sides are for the installation of optional
accessories. Do not remove these screws unless directed to do so in the instructions for
installation of the accessories.
**NOTE: Wear gloves and protective eye wear.
Instructions are given as you face the stove.
You may wish to pull out, empty and clean the ash pan, and use it to hold hardware you remove
from the stove.
1.
Lift the Probe Thermometer from the Top.
2.
Lift the Front Doors from the Stove.
3.

Remove the Top.
Use a 7/16” wrench to remove the four hex head cap screws that hold the top plate to the body
of the stove. The four screws pass upward through the slotted tabs at the top of each side and
into the underside of the top plate. Lift the top from the stove.
