Operating Instructions and Owner’s ManualCleveland Iron Works Wood Pellet Fire Stove
MAINTENANCE
This wood heater needs periodic inspection and repair
for proper operation. It is against federal regulations
to operate this wood heater in a manner inconsistent
with operating instructions in this manual.
CAUTION: TURN OFF AND UNPLUG THE
STOVE FROM ANY SOURCE OF ELECTRICAL
POWER TO UNIT BEFORE PERFORMING ANY
MAINTENANCE OR SERVICE OPERATIONS.
CAUTION: ALLOW STOVE TO COOL DOWN
BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE
OR SERVICE OPERATIONS.
CAUTION: DURING ANY ASSEMBLY OR
DISASSEMBLY, BE WARY TO NOT DROP ANY
ITEMS (SCREWS, ETC.) INTO THE PELLET
HOPPER. DEBRIS CAN JAM THE AUGER AND
DAMAGE THE STOVE.
The frequency which your stove’s requires cleaning and
maintenance depends on the fuel that you use. High
moisture, ash, dust, and chips can more than double
the necessary maintenance. Use only the tested and
recommended wooden pellets fuel.
Clean the fire pot and fire pan every day, before using
the stove and while the stove is cooled down, the stove
is unplugged, and there are no embers. Use a vacuum
cleaner to remove ash and debris from the fire pot,
and then lift the fire pot to also clean the fire pan. It
is important that ash or debris does not block any air
openings.
A general cleaning schedule is as follows:
• Fire Pot: After 10 bags of wood pellets, or every
day. Whichever is more frequent.
• Ash Drawer: After 50 bags of wood pellets
• Passageways: After 100 bags of wood pellets
• Blower: After 100 bags of wood pellets
CLEANING: FIRE POT & PAN
CAUTION: IF STOVE IS INTENDED TO
OPERATE CONTINUOUSLY, IT MUST BE
TURNED OFF TWICE WITHIN EACH 24 HOUR
PERIOD IN ORDER TO CLEAN THE FIRE POT
AND FIRE PAN. ALWAYS ALLOW THE STOVE
TO COOL DOWN AND ANY EMBERS TO
EXTINGUISH BEFORE CLEANING THE FIRE
POT AND FIRE PAN.
Make sure that you put the fire pot back onto the fire
pan in the correct orientation, so that pellets can be
added to the pot and successfully ignited for the next
operation of the stove.
CLEANING: GLASS
WARNING: DO NOT CLEAN GLASS WHEN
HOT.
Though the circulation of air across the glass reduces
acidic ash build up, cleaning the glass in the stove door
is still required periodically. Cleaning is necessary to
prevent glass from being weakened which may increase
likelyhood of cracks. It is not acceptable to operate the
stove with cracked or broken glass.
The best way to clean the door glass is using a damp
cloth that has a smear of cool ash on it. For extra
stubborn dirt, consult your local hardware store or
stove specialist for a suitable cleaner.
WARNING: DO NOT CLEAN GLASS WITH
ABRASIVE CLEANERS OR BY ANY OTHER
PROCESS WHICH MAY SCRATCH OR DAMAGE
THE GLASS.
CLEANING: INLET AND OUTLET PASSAGEWAYS
The inlet and outlet passageways should be cleaned at
least once a year. Burning high ash pellets may require
that the passageways are cleaned more frequently.
