Failure to keep the
primary air opening of the burner
clean may result in sooting and
property damage.
We recommend that you clean the unit
every three months or after 2500 hours
of operation. We also recommend that
you keep the burner tube and pilot as-
sembly clean and free of dust and
dirt. To clean these parts we recom-
mend using compressed air no greater
than 30 PSI. You can use a vacuum

LOGS
If you remove logs for cleaning,

21, to properly replace logs.
Replace log(s) if broken or chipped
(dime-sized or larger).
MAIN BURNER
Periodically inspect all burner flame
holes with the healer running. All
slotted burner flame holes should
be open with yellow flame present. All
round burner flame holes should be
o p e n w i t h a s m a l l b l u e f l a m e
present. Some burner flame holes
may become blocked by debris or
rust, with no flame present. If so,
turn off heater and let cool. Either
remove blockage or replace burner.
Blocked burner flame holes will
create soot.
