XXV Pellet Stove
Fuel quality and moisture content will dictate how
often it will be necessary to empty the ash pan.
It is recommended that the stove is cold and shut
down for removing the ash pan.
1. Open the front door of the stove and then open
the ash door by pulling downward on the ash lip.
Remove the ash pan (be sure to wear protective
gloves if the stove is not cooled down). See Fig.
33.
2. Slide the ash pan back into the stove, seating it
against the rear of the rebox. Lift the ash lip to
close the ash door and then close the front door
of the stove.
The stove should be cleaned after burning ap-
proximately 1 ton of pellets (50 bags). The cleaner
the stove, the more efcient it will be. You will burn
less pellets and heat output will be greater.
Higher ash content pellets will require more
frequent cleaning.
1. Shut down the stove and
to insure that all motors are stopped.
2. Clean the heat exchanger with scraper as shown
in g 34.
3. Brush or scrape the inside of the stove to remove
y ash.
4. Scrape the burn pot with the at end of the scraper
provided with the stove. Inspect the holes on the
burn pot surface. See Fig. 35.
5. Open the burn pot clean-out. Clean y ash from
the burn pot and replace the cover. See Figures
39 and 40 on page 26.
