MAINTENANCE

No unauthorised modification of this appliance should be carried out.
1. Removing the Ashes – Depending on the type of wood burned, the ashes will need
removing every 2 to 6 weeks. With a small shovel, push the hot coals to one side and
shovel most of the ash into a metal bucket. Leave a minimum 10mm thick bed of ash
in the bottom of the firebox, allowing the fire to operate at its optimum.
Inside the oven is a removable base plate. This plate should be lifted out and any soot
underneath removed.
2. Cleaning Paint Work and Glass – The stove, when cool, can be cleaned with a damp
cloth. Over the years the black will fade and can be touched up with high temperature
stove paint. The glass can be cleaned with steel wool and water. It is not advisable to
use a cleaner that contains caustic chemicals, and abrasive cleaners.
The hot plates can also be removed for cleaning.
3. Secondary Air Inlet – A metal strip at the top of the firebox door can be adjusted in and
out with the Allen key provided. The strip should be set leaving a gap of 1mm between
the edge of the strip and the front of the Baker's Oven. This gap provides the secondary
air supply.
4. Door Seal – The door seal is a 13mm round fibreglass braided rope. If it detaches from
the groove in the door, or needs to be replaced, it can be fixed using silicone.
5. Fire Bricks – In normal use, these can last for many years. It is possible however, to
crack them if logs are continually jammed against them or if frequently struck with a
poker. Check periodically for seriously cracked firebricks, which can be replaced with
new ones available from your dealer.
6. Firebox Side Shields – The internal sides of the firebox are protected by 8mm thick
steel sheets. Over time these can burn through. In such an event, new ones can be
sourced from your dealer, and re-hung inside the firebox.
7. Chimney Cleaning – The frequency with which the chimney will need cleaning will
depend on the way that the stove has been used as well as the type and dryness of
the wood burned. Keep an eye on the flue passages and if there appears to be a build
up of soot it is time to clean the flue.
