Remove all particles of glass. Be careful as they are very
sharp. Install new glass complete with gasket. Replace
frame and screws.
WARNING: Do not overtighten, tighten screws very
carefully.
- Do not clean glass when hot
- Do not use abrasive cleaners on glass
6. Do not store wood within heater installation clearances,
or within the space required for fuel loading and ash
removal. Keep the area around the heater clean and
free of all loose combustibles, furniture, newspapers,
etc.
7. If gold door requires cleaning, use mild soap and water
only.
Use of abrasive cleaners will void warranty.
8. Establish a routine for the fuel, wood burning and fi r-
ing technique. Check daily for creosote buildup until
experience shows how often you need to be cleaning
to be safe.
9. Be aware that the hotter the fi re, the less creosote
is deposited. Weekly cleaning may be necessary in
mild weather, even though monthly cleaning is usually
enough in the coldest months when burning rates are
higher.
10. Instruct all members of your family on the safe
operation of the heater. Ensure they have enough
knowledge of the entire system if they are expected
to operate it. Stress the section on chimney fi res and
the importance of following the steps outlined in “In
Case of Chimney Fire”.
Blower Maintenance
The blower requires occasional cleaning to prevent buildup
of dust and hair. More frequent cleaning may be required
if conditions are dusty or pets are present. This service is
best performed by a qualifi ed service technician.
Baffle Removal
The baffle may be removed from the fi rebox to clean and
inspect the chimney liner.
DO NOT OPERATE WITH BAFFLE OR INSULATION
REMOVED.
Removal
Remove retaining pin at the back top of the fi rebox, just
under the baffle. Remove rail extensions in front of the baf-
fl e by turning and lifting out. Lift baffle up and pull forward
to disconnect from the supply tube. Tilt baffle sideways
to drop down and remove from fi rebox. Inspect gasket
between baffle and supply tube. If necessary, replace with
gasket #139.5 available from your Pacifi c Energy dealer.
Re-install baffle assembly by reversing order.
Maintenance
1. Burn wood only, dry and well seasoned. The denser or
heavier the wood when dry, the greater its heat value.
This is why hardwoods are generally preferred. Green
or wet wood will cause a rapid buildup of creosote.
If you feel it is necessary to burn wet or unseasoned
wood, do so only with the air inlet set open enough
to maintain a good strong fi re and fairly high chimney
temperatures. Do not attempt to burn overnight us-
ing green or wet wood. Wet wood can cause up to
25% drop in heater output, as well as contributing
signifi cantly to creosote buildup.
WARNING: Never use chemicals or any other volatile
liquid to start a fi re. Do not burn garbage, or fl am-
mable fl uids such a gasoline, naptha, or engine oil.
We strongly recommend that smoke detectors be
installed.
2. Remove ashes frequently. Embers can roll out the
door and create a fi re hazard. Maintain a 1" minimum
ash base.
3. If glass becomes darkened through slow burning or
poor wood, it can readily be cleaned with any fi replace
glass cleaner when stove is cold. Never scrape with
an object that might scratch the glass. The type and
amount of deposit on the glass is a good indication
of fl ue pipe and chimney buildup. A light brown dusty
deposit that is easily wiped off usually indicates
good combustion and dry, well-seasoned wood and
therefore relatively clean pipes and chimney. On the
other hand, a black, greasy deposit that is difficult to
remove is a result of wet and green wood and too
slow a burning rate. This heavy deposit is building
up at least as quickly in the chimney.
WARNING: Only use materials supplied by the manu-
facturer when doing maintenance or replacements.
4. DOOR GASKET - The gasket used by Pacifi c Energy
requires only light pressure to seal. This will prolong
seal life. It is important that the door seal be main-
tained in good condition. Periodically inspect seals
and replace if necessary. Follow instructions included
in the DR31.WDGKIT kit obtainable from your nearest
Pacifi c Energy Dealer.
5. DOOR GLASS - Do not slam loading door or otherwise
impact glass. When closing door, make sure that no
logs protrude to impact the glass. If the glass gets
cracked or broken, it must be replaced before using
the stove. Replacement glass can be obtained from
your Dealer. The size required is8 -7/16 x 13 13/16
x 5 mm. Only ceramic glass may be used.
Do not
substitute with any other type.
To remove broken glass, undo the four retaining screws
and remove the frame noting position for re-assembly.
