MAINTENANCE
The catalytic thermometer on top of the stove should read in the active zone
after the stove has been in operation for several hours. If the thermometer's
indicator needle does not stay in the active zone, even with a hot fi re, over a
period of regular use, the catalyst may need to be cleaned. If this persists it
may be necessary to replace it.
If the combustor must be examined or replaced, follow this procedure:
1. Allow the stove to burn out and cool down.
2. Open the door and loosen the two 7/16” bolts -see locations below.
3. Lift fl ame shield slightly upwards in keyhole slot and pull it forward and down.
COMBUSTOR ASSEMBLY
REMOVAL / REPLACEMENT:
4. Use a pair of pliers and gently slide out the band at each end. The assembly
will loosen enough that it can be pulled forward, lowered, and pulled out
through the door.
TO REPLACE THE COMBUSTOR:
First clean the combustor area and the area around the by-pass,use a
vacuum cleaner.
Lift the new combustor into position, with the stainless fl anges on each end
facing forward.
The combustor should slide easily into position, you may need to pinch down
the top center with your fi nger to start, gently push as far to the back of the
stove as possible.
Replace the fl ame shield in the orientation shown below.
Lift it into position, place the key slot opening over the bolt and push the fl ame
shield down to seat. Tighten the bolt till its SNUG only, do not over tighten.
The fl ame shield should rest at an angle (about 45 degrees) with the thin
end at the bottom and the thick end near the top of the stove.
