the holes clearly visible
Using the metal scrapper or suitable tool (wire brush)
remove material that has accumulated in the burn
pot liner or is clogging the holes, then dispose of the
scrapped ashes . Place the burn pot liner back into burn
pot holder, making sure that the igniter hole is aligned
with the igniter tube, then push the burn pot liner back up
against the igniter tube.
Note: If after long periods of burning, the flame
is a tall, lazy flame with dark orange tips and
the fire builds up and overflows the burn pot
or there is a build-up of clinkers, this is an
indication that fire may need to be shut down
and cleaned.
CAUTION: BECAUSE THE FLY ASH IS VERY
FINE, THE USE OF A BAGGED VACUUM
CLEANER IS RECOMMENDED. BAG-LESS
VACUUMS CAN BE DAMAGES BY THE FINE
ASH. Please pay special attention that there
are no hot ashes or there could be a possibility
of a fire hazard inside the vacuum cleaner.
Place all hot ashes into a non-combustible
container.

Heat Exchanger Tubes (daily)

The handle for the heat exchanger cleaning rod is pointed
out in the first image below. This handle is to be pulled
back and forth a few times (ONLY WHEN THE UNIT IS
COLD) in order to clean away any fly ash that may have
collected on the heat exchanger tubes. As different types
14
of pellets produce different amounts of ash, cleaning of
the tubes should be done on a regular basis to enable
the unit to run efficiently. Use the supplied scraper tool to
access the handle.
8.3 Firebox, Flame Trap, Burn Pot
Holder and FIREX Lining (3-5 days)
Dependent on fire use and fuel quality, the insides of the
fire box should be cleaned out once every 3-5 days. This
includes the burn pot holder.
To do this lift the burn pot liner from the fire and clean out
the burn pot holder of ash - the easiest way of doing this
is to vacuum it out. Make sure the air intake is clear of
ash or debris - this can also be vacuumed out to ensure
it is clean.
Place the burn-pot back into the fire, making sure that
the burn pot is located correctly.
The Flame Trap located in the top of the burn chamber,
below the heat exchanger tubes, should be removed and
the ash which has been scraped off the heat exchanger
tubes cleaned off. The heat exchanger tubes can also be
brushed clean with a soft brush.
