7 Cleaning and maintaining the heating system – Cleaning and maintenance schedule 7 Cleaning and maintaining the heating system To ensure fault-free operation, certain cleaning and maintenance work is necessary. This effort will help you avoid expensive repairs, provided you maintain the recommended intervals. The twice yearly and longer term cleaning and maintenance work can be covered by a maintenance contract with an authorised heating engineer.
7 Cleaning and maintaining the heating system – Procedure 7.2 Procedure Warning! Danger of asphyxiation due to carbon monoxide! If the boiler is operating, carbon monoxide can be emitted through the open ash doors. Do not leave the ash doors open any longer than necessary. Caution! Danger of burns from hot surfaces! During operation, the boiler surfaces under the cladding are hot.
Set the operating mode to “Off”. Allow the heating system to burn out. Turn the mains electricity switch off. Open the left and right doors of the HDG Pelletmaster 15/25. Release the ash box fastener. To do so, press the safety lock (2) to the left and fold the closure (1) inward to open it.
Set the operating mode to “Off”. Allow the heating system to burn out. Turn the mains electricity switch off. Open the right boiler door of the HDG Pelletmaster. Open the combustion chamber doors (1). Pull out the door bolts (2) in an upward direction.

7 Cleaning and maintaining the heating system – Procedure Carefully check whether the lambda sensor (1) is still hot. Using a pipe wrench, unscrew the locking nut of the lambda sensor (1). Pull the lambda sensor (1) out of the flue pipe (2). Figure 7/15 - Cleaning the lambda sensor Clean the lambda sensor with a cloth.
Carefully lift up the top left cover (1). Lay the cover (1) to the side. The connection cable to the control unit of the HDG Pelletronic is long enough that the cover can be laid aside without detaching the plug.
7 Cleaning and maintaining the heating system – Procedure Release all screws (1) of the cover (2) with a 4 mm Allen key. Remove the suction hose from the suction turbine (3). Remove the cover (2). Figure 7/19 - Removing the cover Clean the sieve (1) on the underside of the cover (2) with a vacuum cleaner.
