Blockage within fire bx

To address a blockage in the Yunca Heating FITZROY firebox:

1. Remove the back and rear castings periodically, as ash can build up behind them and cause pressure on other parts.
2. Ensure the firebox is emptied of all bricks to provide room to maneuver parts.
3. When replacing the frame, remove bricks and any air tube from inside the frame first.
4. Remove the side bricks to enable the frame to be taken out of the firebox.

These steps help clear ash and debris that may be causing the blockage.
