B. Cleaning
and
Removal System
Fire Risk.
Make sure Ash Removal System door is sealed
tight against the gasket.
Air leakage may cause:
• Over-fire condition
• Flame and/or smoke spillage
• Wood to burn too fast
• Do NOT use Ash Removal System while stove is
burning.
1. The appliance and ashes must be completely cool before
using the Ash Removal System (ARS). Locate the ash
removal door handle under the left side of the stove in
the center. Grasp the handle with your fingers and place
your thumb on the latch release. Press the latch release
inward. Keep the latch release pressed in and lower the
handle gently. Take your thumb off the release once the
handle is clear of the latch and guide the handle back
until it stops.
2. Remove cast iron cap from inside the firebox using tools
supplied. Clean ash through the ash removal system
channel into the drawer below (Figure 16.2). Make sure
all ash is removed from the top of ARS door. Lift up the
grate and inspect the top of the door to ensure all ash
has been removed. You can rapidly move the ARS latch
handle up and down to help remove any ash from the
door. Use a small brush to clean off the top of the door
if any ash remains. Be sure to replace the cap before
operating the stove. It is recommended to leave 1/4 to
1/2 inch (6-13mm) of ash on the firebox floor to allow air
to flow freely underneath wood.
3. Close the door handle, you will hear a "click" when it
closes. The ash drawer will not pull out if the door handle
is left in the open position. Wear gloves to remove the
drawer. Dispose of the ashes properly as described
under Disposal of Ashes on page 17.
Injury Risk.
• Gloves recommended
