CAUTION: Surfaces are hot while in operation, Wear
gloves to protect from burns.
Open side doors.
Release spring latches on the right and left side of the ash
pan.
Slide ash pan forward enough to lift with center handle.
Empty ashes and reinstall ash pan.
Inspect the gasket rope for damage. Replace if necessary.
Insert spring latch front hooks into the ash pan side slots.
Push both latches to the rear at the same time to latch.
When removing the ash pan to empty ashes, you will
note a build up of ash nes behind the ash pan. This space
behind the ash pan was designed to allow the nes to fall
out of the vertical heat exchangers and collect where they
are easily cleaned out, rather than going into the ue pipe
where it would be difcult to clean. These nes should not
be allowed to build up. They may not allow the ash pan to
be seated into its gasket properly.

The products of combustion will contain small particles
of y ash. The y ash will collect in the exhaust venting
system and restrict the ow of the ue 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 sys-
tem. The ENTIRE venting system should be professionally
cleaned at least once each year.
