DO NOT BURN WET COAL

will not burn completely.
After the fire is burning and the feed rate is adjusted, you can
now set the thermostat to the desired temperature.
MAINTENANCE
With each hopper of coal that is burned approximately one
ashpan full of ashes must be removed. Failure to remove the ashes
will result in a blocked up grate and the fire will not burn properly.
Remember, the ashpan will be hot, so always wear protective gloves.
Weekly:
The small tray in the side of the stoker should be removed and
emptied.
The spring handle located at the rear of the flue-pipe should be
cycled in and out several times. This action cleans the interior of the
heat exchanger and causes the dust to fall into the ashpan.
Every 3 Months:
The grate "clean-out" slide should be opened and reclosed as
shown in drawings at left.
In the "closed" position, be sure the "grate clean-out" plate slide
is straight across as shown.
The easiest way to handle this slide is through the ash door with
a poker inserted into the hole at the end.
The purpose of this operation is to let any fly ash build-up under
the grate fall into the ashpan.
This operation can be performed while the unit is burning.
However, you should first lower the thermostat to lower the stove
temperature and be sure you are wearing protective gloves.
