Cleaning the Smoke Box/Baffle System

1. Remove the baffle plate as follows:
a. Push the baffle plate up towards the top of the stove and lift it off the side stones.
b. The baffle plate can now be turned at an angle and pulled out through the door
opening. Note: The baffle plate is made out of vermiculite, which is a porous
material and should be handled with care.
2. Now the smoke control plates can be removed:
a. Raise the U-shaped steel smoke leader plate (back) and flip out the L-shaped
smoke stop plate (at the front).
b. Lift off the smoke leader plate from its pins in the back of the stove and pull it out
through the door opening.
3. Brush the smoke box and vacuum if necessary.
4. The cleaning plate and the baffle plate can be put back in reverse order. Make sure the
plates are correctly in place and the top opening is fully closed.

Firebox Lining

The firebox bottom lining is made out of firebrick and the side lining is made out of
vermiculite slab insulation (skamol), which protects the outer steel plates from overheating.
With time small cracks might appear, and this is normal. If it breaks however, it must be
replaced. Vermiculite is a porous, high-insulating material and must therefore be handled
with care.

Gaskets

It is recommended to replace the door gaskets about every 2 years. When replacing the door
gasket, make sure the door glass is not pressed too hard against the gasket. The gasket around
the ash drawer can also be replaced as needed. Gaskets can be obtained from an authorized
RAIS dealer.
