Cleaning the glass
Clean the glass every day with a damp sponge or paper towel
(
F
ig
. 6-7
). If the glass becomes dirty with black smoke, the pellet
basket is probably dirty or the combustion air must be increased.
Be careful not to use overly aggressive product to avoid ruining
the paint. Never spray detergents directly on painted parts (
F
ig
.

).
If the stove requires more frequent and deeper cleaning, check
the flue draught performance and the chimney cap. A windproof
chimney cap is strongly recommended.
4.
Brazier removal for cleaning:
To remove the brazier from its housing, with the combustion
chamber door open, simply lift it vertically and remove it (
F
ig
.
9-11
). Once removed, eliminate residue deposited in the basket
by overturning it and remove any encrustations, by shaking the
basket and hitting internal walls. Accurately clean all air passage
holes in the basked with a sharp tool so they are free and not
obstructed by encrustations or deposits of any kind.
Before replacing the brazier, accurately vacuum the housing to
make sure there is not ash or dirt (
F
ig
. 12
).
The brazier must be correctly repositioned in its housing, with
the upper lip facing the combustion chamber door (if not well
fitted and air leaks, the boiler may not ignite or work poorly;
furthermore, it may permit fume circulation in the pellet container).
Correct brazier positioning can also be noted by the pellet loading
tube perfectly centred in the brazier base hole (
F
ig
. 13
).
For the first few days during pellet operation, keep the pellet
basket under observation to determine after how many days it
must be cleaned, as different qualities of pellets have different
quantities of residue.
5.
Fume deflector cleaning and removal:
Clean the fume deflector at least once a week. After opening the
combustion chamber door, grasp the tab at the back of the part
and pull horizontally forward to free it from its rear rests (
F
ig
. 14
).
Accompany deflector rotation until vertical (
F
ig
. 15-16
). Shake
the part in this position and vacuum dust residue.
Furthermore, fully remove the deflector at least once a month to
fully clean the upper part of the combustion chamber. To remove,
starting from the vertical position indicated for cleaning, tilt the
deflector back and, once at a 30° angle, lift and push inward to
unhook it from the front supports (
F
ig
. 17
). Lower the deflector
vertically and slightly rotate it to remove (
F
ig
. 18-19)
.
Repeat the steps in reverse order to reassemble the deflector,
making sure it is correctly fitting on its supports in the horizontal
position.
