Ash removal
The appliance will require ash to be removed periodically but an ash bed of
approximately 20mm (3/4 inches) should be maintained when burning wood.
The ash pan should be emptied when the level of ash reaches the top of the ash
pan. On no account should the ash be allowed to build up to touch the underside
of the grate bars, as this will greatly reduce the life span of the grate.
To remove ash use the supplied operating tool:
• Open the door of the stove, pausing briefly when ajar so as to allow the fire
to adjust to the increased air supply.
• Put the fork end of the operating tool into the slots of the ash pan and
remove from the ash pit chamber.
• Empty the ash into a suitable container and replace the ash pan into the
stove, withdraw the operating tool and close the fire door.
Warning: The ash can be very hot. Care must be taken not to
burn hands or household objects with falling embers.
Empty only into a metal container. Even if the ash appears cold,
red-hot embers may be concealed and could easily start a fire or
cause an injury.
