Operating Instructions and Owner’s ManualCleveland Iron Works Wood Pellet Fire Stove
On each side of the stove there are two access covers
that can be removed by removing the fastening screws.
See Figures 22, 25 and 26. Turn off the stove, allow
the stove to cool down, and unplug the stove before
disassembly and cleaning. Insert a cleaning brush into
the openings to loosen any ash build up and then use
a vacuum cleaner to remove the loosened ash. Replace
the covers and secure with the allen head screws.
There are two more openings to the inlet and outlet
passageways which can be accessed by removing the
ash drawer. Loosen the two 5/32” allen head screws
shown in Figure 20. Rotate the covers to expose the
opening. Use a cleaning brush to loosen any ash build
up. Insert a cleaning brush into the openings to loosen
any ash build up and then use a vacuum cleaner to
remove the loosened ash. Rotate the covers back over
the openings and secure with the allen screws.
CLEANING: CONVECTION BLOWER
When facing the heater, the blower motor responsible
for introducing air for heating and circulation to the
room is located on the right hand side. Remove or open
the side panel to obtain access.
Clean the convection
blower as required, before using the stove and while
the stove is cooled down, the stove is unplugged,
and there are no embers. Take care to not damage
the blower’s blades during cleaning. Use a vacuum to
remove any dust accumulation of the blower’s blades
or inside the blower duct.

CLEANING: EXHAUST VENT PIPE
Inspect the exhaust venting system at least once a
year to determine if cleaning is necessary. During start
up, shut down, and erroneous operation of the stove
incomplete combustion can produce ash, soot, and
creosote. To clean the exhaust venting system insert
an appropriate sized cleaning brush into the pipe to
loosen and remove any ash or debris build up. Build up
of debris and ash can restrict the flow of gases which
will affect stove performance, and failure to remove
creosote may result in a dangerous chimney fire.
FLYASH - FORMATION AND NEED FOR REMOVAL
The products of combustion will contain small
particles of flyash. The flyash will collect in the exhaust
venting system and restrict the flow of the flue gases.
Incomplete combustion, such as occurs during startup,
shutdown, or incorrect operation of the room heater
will lead to some soot formation which will collect
in the exhaust venting system. The exhaust venting
system should be inspected at least once every year to
determine if cleaning is necessary.
Use the appropriate
sized chimney brush to remove ash and buildup from
the venting.
CREOSOTE - FORMATION AND NEED FOR
REMOVAL
Failure to remove creosote may result in a dangerous
chimney fire.
When wood pellets burn at a low temperature they
produce tar and other organic vapors, which combine
with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote
vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of
allow-temperature fire. As a result, creosote residue
accumulates on the flue lining. When ignited this
creosote makes an extremely hot fire. The chimney
connector and chimney should be inspected at least
once every few months during the heating season
to determine if a creosote buildup has occurred.
If a
significant layer of creosote has accumulated (eighth
of an inch, 3 mm, or more) it should be removed to
reduce the risk of a chimney fire. Use the appropriate
sized chimney brush to remove ash and buildup from
the venting.
Be aware that the hotter the fire the less creosote is
deposited, and weekly cleaning may be necessary
in mild weather even though monthly cleaning may
be enough in the coldest months. Contact your local
municipal or provincial fire authority for information
on how to handle a chimney fire. Have a clearly
understood plan to handle a chimney fire.
REPLACING: GLASS
Replacing the door glass is only permitted by replacing
the entire door assembly provided by the manufacturer.
