Maintenance

Ash Removal

Always wear stove gloves when handling ashes.
Ash removal will be required periodically depending
on frequency of use. Use a steel ash shovel and metal
container with a tight-fitting lid. NEVER USE A PAPER OR
PLASTIC BAG AS AN ASH RECEPTACLE.
The container of ashes should be placed on a non-
combustible floor or on the ground, well away from all
combustible materials, pending final disposal. If the
ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise dis-
persed, they should be kept in the closed container until
all coals and cinders have thoroughly cooled.

Glass Care

Cleaning
Occasionally it will be necessary to clean the carbon
deposits and fly ash off of the glass. If deposits are al-
lowed to remain on the glass for an extended period of
time, the glass may become etched and cloudy.
Creosote deposits should burn off during the next hot
fire.
1. The glass must be COMPLETELY COOL.
2. Only use a cleaner that is specifically designed for
this purpose. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANING
AGENTS. The use of abrasives will damage the glass,
leaving a frosted surface. Crumpled newspaper is an
especially good cleaning material.
3. Rinse and dry glass completely before lighting a fire.

Glass Replacement
Always operate the doors slowly and cautiously to avoid
cracking or breaking the glass. Never use the door to
push wood into the firebox. If the glass becomes cracked
or broken follow the replacement procedure below.
NEVER OPERATE THE STOVE WITH A
CRACKED OR BROKEN GLASS PANEL.
Replace glass only with part # 156467
specifically designed for the Jøtul C 550
Rockland Fireplace insert. Do not use
substitutes. Replacement glass can be
ordered from your Jøtul dealer.
1. Remove the door from the stove and place on a flat sur-
face.
2. First loosen and then carefully remove all of the glass clips
from the inside of the door. See fig. 20.
3. Remove all pieces of the glass panel and gasketing.
4. Remove all remaining debris from the glass area using a
wire brush.
5. Apply a small bead of gasket/stove cement and the new
gasket. Do not overlap the ends of the gasket rope.
6. Orient the glass with the IR Coating label facing out. Hold
the glass at an angle to see the word "COATED" located at
the lower edge. This side should face out when placed in
the door. Center the new glass panel over the gasket and
loosely reinstall the glass clips. Tighten the clips, alternat-
ing at opposite corners. Avoid applying uneven pressure on
the glass..
7. It may be necessary to retighten the glass clips after the
stove has burned and the gasketing has seated.
