8. MAINTENANCE
The frequency with which the stove requires cleaning and the
maintenance intervals depend on the fuel you use. High moisture
content, ash, dust and chips may more than double the maintenance
required. We would like to point out again that only tested and
recommended pellets may be used as fuel.
Tip
Wood as fertiliser - the mineral content of the wood remains in the
combustion chamber as ash as a residue of the combustion. This is
an excellent fertiliser for all plants in the garden; it is a completely
natural product. The ash should be stored first and slaked with
water.
Note
Ash may contain embers – only place ash in steel sheet containers!
Open the combustion chamber door
To open or close the combustion chamber door use the included key.
This key can be stored on the back of the stove when not in use.
Cleaning the flame temperature sensor
Remove the dust deposits from the sensor at regular intervals. Use a
clean cleaning cloth or newspaper.
Empty the ash drawer
Empty the ash drawer regularly. The ash drawer is simply pulled
forward with the combustion chamber door open.
Cleaning of the burn pot - daily
Make sure that the air vents are not blocked with ash or clinker.
Remove the clinker using the supplied brush and vacuum the burn
pot. The burn pot can be easily cleaned inside the stove. After
removing the pot the area underneath can be vacuum-cleaned.
Do not damage the ignition when cleaning with the brush.
Note
Clean the fire trough regularly. Only clean when cold, when embers
are extinguished!
Cleaning the door glass
The viewing window becomes coated in the case of solid fuels,
particularly with the very fine ash of wood pellets, light or dark
depending on the pellet quality (especially with low output). The
glass can be cleaned best with a moist cloth. Stubborn dirt can be
removed with a special cleaner available from your stove dealer.
Usual cleaners containing acid or solvents can be too harsh and
damage the glass.
Cleaning painted surfaces
Wipe the painted surfaces with a damp cloth, do not scrub. Do not
use solvent-containing cleaners.
