Cleaning

Secondary air
In the air gap where the flame is drawn down,
there is a metal plate with holes (1.) Clean the
plate after about 40 hours firing. Brush / scrape
away the dust and ashes. If the holes become
clogged
up,
significantly.

angle from below)
Fan
In normal wood consumption, you should clean
the fan three times a year. Loosen the wing nuts
(1.) located at the back of the fan housing. Pull
out the fan, clean the fan wings (2.) from dust
and soot. If the fan is not cleaned, the boiler
will lose power, resulting in slower heating and
lower combustion.
Lambda sensor
The lambda sensor is located in the flue
connection and measures the oxygen content
in the flue gas. Once a year the Lambda probe
should be unscrewed from its bracket and
cleaned from any soot that has amassed. Use a
brush. Do not tap it against anything, then it will
brake.
Gaskets
The door gaskets must fit tightly against the
frame, if the doors leak the boiler heats less
efficiently. Make sure that the doors' gaskets
seal tightly against the frames. If the gaskets do
not seal tightly, the boiler will burn less efficiently.
If the doors need to be adjusted, see (p. 20).
