burn Pot Cleaning and maintenance
1. Scrape the top holed surface and sides of the
burn pot. (Fig 38) It is not necessary to completely
remove all material from the burn pot. The excess
will be pushed out during the next use.
2. Loosen the (2) wing thumb screws on the lower
front angle of the burn pot. (Fig. 38)
3. Lift off the clean-out cover (Fig.39) to open the
bottom clean-out chamber. (Fig.40)
4. Clean ash buildup from inside the chamber while
cover is off. Use the scraper to tap on the top front
edge of the burn pot. This will help knock pieces
of ash, loosened by the scraping process, down
through the holes. It also helps knock scale off of
the igniter element.

The igniter is made to be removable for
service by insulated male/female wire connectors.
These connections between the hot leads (the
wires inside the burn pot) and the cold leads (the
wires from the control board) are always pulled to
the rear of the feeder body.
(Not coiled inside the
burn pot.)
It is very important that these connections
are to the inside rear of the feeder body. Also, the
extra wire of the igniter wire service loop must be
pulled out through the rear of the feeder and tied
up so that it will not be damaged by any moving
parts. See page 25.
Warning
Use caution when cleaning burn pot clean-
out chamber. Do not damage the high
temperature igniter wires.
