1. Once the heater has cooled, remove the door from the heater.
2. Remove the rope gasket from the door along with the four (4) screws holding the glass retainer in place and
the glass retainer.
3. 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.
4. Replace the glass and gasket, making sure the gasket runs the full perimeter of the glass edge.
5. Re-install the new glass by re-attaching the retainers and screws, be careful not to over tighten the screws
for this could damage the glass.
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.
