Removing the ash from the burner pot can be done in a few seconds, and even during
operation. Using the scraper draw the ash out of the burner pot until only a few embers remain.
Let the ash drop into the ashpit.
Important information:
•
Do not compact or crush the ash in the burner
pot, since this would clog up the air holes.
Instead draw the ash out of the pot with the ash
scraper, as shown on the right.
•
All air holes in the burner pot must remain free,
so that the pellets are sufficiently exposed to
combustion and ignition air.
•
Clean the burner pot when the air holes are
clogged (see below – Chapter 8.2).
8.2 Cleaning the burner pot, the pot holder and the ashpit
Regularly clean the ashpit by removing the ash left and
right of the pot holder. This should be done at the latest
when the ash in the ashpit has reached the level of the
pot holder. First switch the stove off and let it cool
sufficiently. Before cleaning remove the pot from the
pot holder. It is not fastened, so you can just lift it out.
Clean burner pot (air holes), pot holder (pot resting
surfaces) and ashpit. Make sure you clean the pot
resting surfaces on the pot holder thoroughly. It is
advisable to use the wodtke ashbox for sucking off the
ash.
Important notes: When inserting the burner pot again
make sure it rests fully on the pot holder. Clean again if
this is not the case. Check that the burner pot is firmly
seated in the pot holder and doesn’t side-wobble by
more than 1-2 mm – if it does, you will need to replace
the burner pot (wearing part). The “burner nose” must
point forward.
Caution: The burner pot can remain hot for a
long time – danger of burning yourself!
Don’t use your bare hands – use tools!
Caution: acute danger of fire!!!
Glowing embers in the ash pose an acute fire
hazard. Only suck the ash into a vacuum bag if you
are completely sure that it does not contain glowing
embers. To reduce the fire hazard we recommend
you to use our ashbox as an adaptor for your
vacuum cleaner.
