Drolet ECO-45 - Manual (Page 16)

FAILURE TO CLEAN AND MAINTAIN THIS UNIT AS INDICATED
CAN RESULT IN POOR PERFORMANCE AND SAFETY HAZARDS.
NEVER CLEAN WHEN HOT.
NOTE: Inspect burn pot periodically to see that holes have not
become plugged. If so, clean thoroughly.
ASH REMOVAL
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight-fitting lid.
The closed container or ashes should be placed on a noncombustible
surface or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials
pending final disposal. If ashes are disposed of by soil burial or
otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed
container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
ASH DISPOSAL
The ECO-45 has an ash bin located below the firebox. To remove
ashes:
a.
Make sure fire is out and the firebox is cool.
b.
Open the door and remove the baffle from the firebox. Close the
door.
c. With the door closed, clean heat exchanger tubes by activating
the cleaning rod back and forth from front to back.
(see Cleaning section and Figure 18 & 19) .
d. Open the door and remove the burn pot by grasping it and
pulling straight out. Scrape the burn pot with a scraper if
necessary. Make sure that the burn pot holes are not plugged.
Empty ashes from the burn pot into the pedestal ash bin through
the opening at the bottom of the firebox. Put the burn pot back in
place. Make sure it is level and pushed all the way in.
e. Scrape the ashes in the firebox into the pedestal ash bin
through the opening or the bottom of the firebox or vacuum to
remove ashes.
WARNING: Make sure ashes are cool to the touch
before using a vacuum. See “VACUUM USE”.
f. Periodically remove and empty the ash bin (see Figure 20) by
opening the front lid of the pedestal below the ash lip. Dispose
of ashes properly.
(See “ASH REMOVAL” above)
g. Put the ash bin back into place, making sure that you tighten the
knob and maintain a good seal. Inspect gasket at the same
time to make sure it is in good condition.
