Combustor Removal

Remove the air deflector at the back of the firebox. Open the bypass and reach through the bypass hole
and push the combustor out from the rear. The combustor is housed in a steel frame and is sealed with
Interam gasket. This gasket, when heated, expands and seals the combustor in place. Push on the left
and right side edges of the combustor frame so that it slides out evenly (the gasket will deteriorate and fall
away as the combustor is dislodged). If the combustor is pushed at a side angle it will lodge in place and
not come out.
When replacing the combustor, use a new Interam gasket around the perimeter of the combustor. The
gasket will expand as the stove is heated.

Temperature Probe Replacement

The Rockport is shipped with the combustor temperature probe held in place with a bend-up clip (used to
hold the probe in place during shipping). The pictures below show the top of the stove with the top
casting removed.
To remove the probe, bend the clip down and slide the probe out. The probe is shipped with sealing
cement around the probe. This cement, over time, will degrade, making removal easier. You can seal
this area with furnace cement (or other non-combustible), or you can wedge it into place (this area is
small and subject to negative pressure). When replacing the probe, you do not need to bend the clip back
(gravity will hold the probe in place).
