Ash Removal
Caution: Ashes are to be removed only when the heater
is cold.
Whenever ashes get 3 to 4 inches deep in your fi rebox,
and when fi re has burned down and cooled, remove
excess ashes. Leave an ash bed approximately 1" (25
mm) deep on the fi rebox bottom to help maintain a hot
charcoal bed.
Optional Ash Cleanout system:
The ash dump handle
is located under the ash lip on the left hand side. To oper-
ate ash dump, pull handle out 1/2" and turn clockwise.
This will unlock the ash dump and allow it to open. Hold
handle open while pulling ashes into the opening. Avoid
large embers as these still contain heat value. Release
handle and push in to lock. Ensure ash dump door is
properly engaged. Fill the cavity with the remaining ash
level with the fi rebox fl oor. Lift and pull out ashpan and
discard ashes into metal container. Replace ashpan and
ensure it is seated properly.
Do not burn with ash dump door open. Doing so will
create a hazardous condition. Always leave about 1"
of ash when cleaning.
Disposal of Ashes
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight
fi tting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed
on a non-combustible fl oor or on the ground, well away
from all combustible materials, pending fi nal disposal. If
the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise
locally dispersed, they should be retained in closed
container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled. Other
waste should not be placed in this container.
Baffle Removal
Chimney connector pipe should be disconnected from
stove to clean and inspect. Only if this is not possible
should you remove baffle assembly.
DO NOT OPERATE WITH BAFFLE ASSEMBLY OR
INSULATION REMOVED.
Removal
Remove retaining pin at the back top of the fi rebox, just
under the baffle. Lift baffle up and pull forward to discon-
nect 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 in reverse order. The two side pieces of
insulation must be tight against the siderails.
Restarting After Extended or
Overnight Burns
1. Open door and rake hot embers towards the front of
the heater. Add a couple of dry, split logs on top of
embers, close door.
2. Adjust air control to high and in just a few minutes,
logs should begin burning.
3. After wood has charred, reset air control to desired
setting.
4. To achieve maximum fi ring rate, set control to high
"H". Do not use this setting other than for starting or
preheating fresh fuel loads.
DO NOT OVERFIRE THIS HEATER: Attempts to
achieve heat output rates that exceed heater design
specifi cations can result in permanent damage to
the heater and chimney.
More Wood, More Heat
Seasoned wood has approximately 7500 BTU's per pound.
If you put 10 pounds of wood in your stove for an eight
hour burn the wood will be producing 9375 BTU's per hour.
(7500 BTU x 10 lbs./8hrs.=9375 BTU's per hr.) If you put
20 lbs of wood in your stove for eight hour burn you will
get 18,750 BTU's per hr. (7500 BTU x 20lbs./8hr.=18,750
BTU's per hr.). This is only an example and is based on
100% efficiency. In reality, your stove should perform
above the 80% range.
Experience will give you the right settings for proper
combustion and efficient burning. Remember the correct
air inlet setting is affected by variables such as type of
wood, outside temperature, chimney size and weather
conditions. With practice, you will become profi cient in
operating your heater and will obtain the performance
for which it was designed.
Proper Draft
1. Draft is the force which moves air from the appliance
up through the chimney. The amount of draft in your
chimney depends on the length of the chimney, local
geography, nearby obstructions and other factors.
2. Too much draft may cause excessive temperatures
in the appliance. An uncontrollable burn or a glowing
red stove part or chimney indicates excessive draft.
3. Inadequate draft may cause backpuffing into the room
and plugging of the chimney. Smoke leaking into the
room through appliance and chimney connector joints
indicates inadequate draft.
