5. MAINTENANCE

Ash Disposal and Removal:

CAUTION: Be sure the fire is out and stove is cold before removing ashes! Never burn your stove with
the ash drawer open.
Be careful when you empty the stove for ashes. There may be glows left as long as 24 hours after the
stove was last used. Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The closed
container of ashes should be places on a non-combustible floor or on the ground well away from all
combustible materials, pending final disposal.
If ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retrained in the
closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.

Cleaning of Stove:

The stove is cleaned with a moist cloth. Senotherm spray is available for repair of possible damages/
scratches. Your dealer has the right spray in the right color. As there may be minor color differences, it
is recommended to repair large areas with natural borders. You will get the best result if the stove is
repaired while it is hand-warm (if the stove is too hot the paint will be granular). Remember a good
airing during the repair. A possible change of color to gray is caused by over-firing, i.e. you have used
more wood than recommended.
Soapstone:
The soap stones are cleaned with fine sandpaper or a dry sponge.
Gold or Chromium Doors:
Always use a dry cloth to clean your gold or chromium doors (or glass cleaner). Please note that you
must NEVER use metal
Removing Baffle for Cleaning:
Be sure the fire is out and stove is cold before removing baffle plate, be cautions with handling the
plates because the plates are made of a subtle material; which easily broke if not handle with care.
Removal of the lower plate: lift the plate up from the supporting pins in and take the pins out from the
side plates and take out the plate (pos 1). Use the same procedure for the upper plate (pos 2) and
take out plate (pos 3).
See the drawing below: Plate 1, 2 and 3.
Mounting in reverse order, observe: the plates are place as
such that the supporting pins fit into the groove in the plates.
The placement of firebricks and baffle plates are the same in
both stoves and is illustrated on the drawing below. Removal of
all fire bricks and the baffle plates should follow in the numeric
order and installation of all fire bricks and baffle plates should
follow in the reverse order of the removal, that is step 1 to 7
