Maintenance & Cleaning
A majority of all problems with pellet stoves are related to general maintenance and cleaning. Regularly
cleaning your stove will allow it to function properly and extends the life of most of the stove's components.
Due to differences in fuel quality, stove cleaning intervals can vary wildly. However, the cleaner the stove is,
the more efficiently it will burn.
WARNING!
Never perform cleaning or maintenance on a hot stove.
Allow unit to cool completely.
Interior components may still be hot, even when stove
surfaces are cool to the touch. A protective glove is
recommended.

Side Panel Access

In order to access many of the areas needed to clean, you must first
open the side panels that are held in place by a 4mm Allen screw
behind the plastic plug cap at the top center of each side panel.
Once the 4mm screw is loosened, the top of the panel will fall away
from the stove, and the entire panel can be lifted up and off.
WARNING!
Never touch the scraper rod while the stove is hot or running. Severe burns can occur.

Heat Exchanger: Daily or as Needed
Clean the heat exchanger with the pre-installed scraper unit at the
top of the stove when the stove is off and cool.
Pull the chrome knob in and out a few times. (Keep the front
door shut to contain all of the ash as it falls)
The soot and ash will fall down to the burn pot and ash pan area.
Keeping the heat exchange tubes clean will keep your stove's
heat exchange process efficient.
28
Clinkers may remain hot for several minutes
after they are pulled from the burn pot.
Never perform service with power supplied
to the unit.
