Operation
2.
Clean burnpot
with scraper.
This is typically a weekly maintenance procedure, but,
depending on the fuel being burned, may need done more
frequently. Cleaning the burn pot with the scraper with a small
amount of new fuel in the bottom is not a problem. First,
scrape the ashes from the front of the burn pot into the ash
pan. Then scrape the hole grid surface downward into the
burn pot. When the stove is ignited these scrapings will be
pushed out by the feeder.
CAuTION: wear heat-resistant gloves To Perform The
Scraping Procedure.
3.
Fill hopper
with pellets.
Before refilling the hopper, check for excessive fines in the
bottom of the hopper. Fines are small pieces of broken pellets
(sawdust). Fines do not flow easily and often build up on the
hopper funnel bottom angles. These fines can be pushed into
the feeder opening and then fill the hopper with pellets. As
the system works, they will be burned.
Access the burnpot through the firebox door. Scraping can be
done while the unit is in operation. *see caution
