BLOWER MOTORS
Clean the air holes on the motors of both the exhaust and distribution blowers annually. Remove the exhaust
blower from the exhaust duct and clean out the internal fan blades and housing as part of your fall start-up.
PAINTED SURFACES
Painted surfaces may be wiped down with a damp cloth. If scratches appear, or you wish to renew your paint,
contact your authorized dealer to obtain a can of suitable high-temperature paint.
GLASS - CLEANING, REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT OF BROKEN DOOR GLASS
Cleaning - We recommend using a high quality glass cleaner. Should a build up of creosote or carbon
accumulate, you may wish to use 000 steel wool and water to clean the glass. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners.
DO NOT perform the cleaning while the glass is HOT. ,
In the event you need to replace the glass, remove the six(6) screws and glass retainers. While wearing leather
gloves (or any other gloves suitable for handling broken glass), carefully remove any loose pieces of glass from
the door frame. Dispose of all broken glass properly. ONLY high temperature ceramic glass of the correct size and
thickness may be used. DO NOT substitute alternative materials for the glass. Contact your authorized dealer to
obtain this glass. Re-install the new glass by re-attaching the retainers and screws, careful not to overtighten the
screws for this could damage the glass.
DO NOT abuse the door glass by striking, slamming or similar trauma. Do not operate the stove with the glass
removed, cracked or broken.
FALL START UP
Prior to starting the rst re of the heating season, check the outside area around the exhaust and air intake
systems for obstructions. Clean and remove any y ash from the exhaust venting system. Clean any screens on
the exhaust system and on the outside air intake pipe. Turn all of the controls on and make sure that they are
working properly. This is also a good time to give the entire stove a good cleaning throughout.
SPRING SHUTDOWN
After the last burn in the spring, remove any remaining pellets from the hopper and the auger feed system. Scoop out the
pellets and then run the auger until the hopper is empty and pellets stop owing (this can be done by pressing the “ON”
button with the viewing door open). Vacuum out the hopper. Thoroughly clean the burn pot, and rebox. It may be desirable
to spray the inside of the cleaned hopper with an aerosol silicone spray if your stove is in a high humidity area. The exhaust
system should be thoroughly cleaned.
