Removing the Ashpan
The ashpan slides out from under the firebox.
NOTE: When replacing the
ash pan make sure it is
pushed all the way in.

WARNING:
The front of the heater
becomes very hot during
operation. Let the heater
cool completely before
conducting service.
Removing the Ashbox
Use both hands to lift the ashbox up
and away from the insert.
Ashbox
Cleaning the Baffles
Use both hands to lift each
baffle up and forward. Then
tilt the baffle downwards to
remove any flyash that may
have accumulated on top of
the baffle. NOTE: you do not
need to remove the baffle from
the firebox.
BAFFLE INSTALLATION
The firebox baffles install on ledges at the top of
the firebox. The two tabs (at the outside back
corners) insert into notches at the right and left
rear corners of the firebox walls.
The baffles install on
ledges above the
firebrick.
Air Tubes
Firebrick
NOTE: The left baffle is larger than
the right baffle.
Disposal of Ashes – Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The closed
container of ashes should be placed on a non-combustible floor or on the ground, well
away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of
by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed
container until all cinders have been thoroughly cooled.
Clean the Glass
Open the door and clean the glass with a non-abrasive glass cleaner and rag. This will increase the
amount of light and heat given off by the heater.
