Routine Stove Maintenance - Morso 8200 Instructions For Installation And Use Manual

3.0 Routine stove maintenance

3.1 External maintenance
The cast surface of the stove is painted with heat-resistant Senotherm paint. It is best
maintained by simply vacuuming it with a soft brush attachment or wiping it down with a
dry, dust-free cloth.
If the stove is used too vigorously, the painted surface may assume a greyish tinge over
time, but the stove can easily be freshened up with Morsø spray paint, which is available
from your local retailer.
Morsø stoves are painted using a Morsø Original Black (previously called Morsø dark grey)
or Morsø grey. The paint can be bought in a spray or a can.
3.2 Internal maintenance
Glass window
If the stove is used correctly, very little or no soot will be deposited on the ceramic glass
window. If soot does form on the glass as the stove is being lit, it will burn away once nor-
mal combustion begins in the stove. If the glass window becomes thoroughly covered in
soot due to incorrect operation, the soot can be easily removed using a cleaning agent
such as Morsø Glass Cleaner. The glass must be cold when you clean it. Avoid stoking the
stove with pieces of wood that are so long that they press against the glass window when
the door is closed.
Reasons for sooty glass window:
- The fuel is too wet
- The pieces of fuel are too big/uncut wood
- The combustion temperature is too low
- There is not enough air
Ceramic glass replacement
Ceramic glass cannot be recycled because it has a higher melting point that ordinary glass.
If ceramic glass is mixed with ordinary glass, the raw material is spoiled, and the reclaiming
process may be halted. Take care that the ovenproof glass does not end up among ordi-
nary recycled waste. That will be a great benefit to the environment.
Note: Should be handed in to a recycling station as ceramic glass.
Internal cast-iron parts and/or wearing parts
The baffles and other components that come in direct contact with the fire and glowing
fuel are all wearing parts. As a result, they will be particularly susceptible to burn-through.
When used correctly, these parts will last for many years, but overly vigorous use will natu-
rally accelerate the burn-through. Such parts are all easily replaced.
If the baffles are damaged and are not replaced in time, the top plate will be exposed to
such high temperatures that it may be damaged as well.
Please note that no unauthorised alterations of the design may be undertaken, and
that any parts that are replaced must be replaced with original Morsø parts.
