*In order to maintain optimum performance, it is
recommended that the fire pot be cleaned weekly or more
as needed.
a. Be sure the appliance is allowed to cool.
b. Open cast face of appliance
c. Pull fire pot floor cleaning lever two times until the ash
falls into the ash pan below ( Figure 22.2).
d. It may be necessary to use your fire pot clean-out tool to
chip away material that has built up on the sides of the
fire pot and to push out any clinkers ( Figure 22.1).
e. Larger clinkers may have to be removed from the top of
the fire pot.
f. If the clinker adheres to the sides of the fire pot, you will
need to manually clean the fire pot. The fire pot floor
plate must be fully closed when finished.
2. Cleaning Ash Pan
• Frequency: Weekly or every 3-5 bags
• By: Homeowner
a. Locate the ash pan underneath the fire pot.

the 2 side latches.
Clinkers filling the ash pan will have to be cleaned out more
often than ash.
Ash Disposal:
Ashes should be placed in a steel container with a tight-
fitting lid. The container of ashes should be moved
outdoors immediately and placed on a non-combustible
floor or on the ground, well away from combustible
materials, pending final disposal.
If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise
locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed
container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled. Other
waste shall not be placed in this container.
