BURN POT AND LINER (2-3 days)
Routine Cleaning and Maintenance
The following list of components should be inspected and maintained routinely to ensure that the
appliance is operating at its optimum and giving you excellent heat value:
Burn Pot Liner
Ignitor
Air Intake
Tube
Burn Pot
Cleaning of the burn pot and liner must only be done when stove is cold. To remove the burn pot and
burn pot liner, open the door using the door handle provided (located on the right-hand side of the stove).
Swing the door open. Lift the liner from the burn pot. Lift the burn pot from the firebox by gently lifting up
the front of the burn pot, then sliding the assembly from the air intake tube and the ignitor cartridge.
This is the ‘pot’ where the pellets are burned. Every two to three days (when the unit is cold), remove
the burn-pot liner from the stove and inspected it to ensure proper air flow through the liner. Failure
to keep the liner clean may cause a build up of fuel past the burn pot liner and up the drop
tube. This will cause the auger to jam and may result in pellets burning in the drop tube and
hopper. Using a metal scrapper, remove material that has accumulated or is clogging the liner’s holes.
Then dispose of the scrapped ashes from the liner and from inside the burn-pot. Place the burn-pot back
into the stove, making sure that the pipes are properly inserted into the burn pot. Place the liner back
into the burn-pot, making sure that the ignitor hole in the liner is aligned with the ignitor tube. Pushing
the liner up against the ignitor tube.
If, after long periods of burning, the fire continually builds up and overflows the burn pot or there is a
build up of clinkers, this is an indication that the pellet fuel quality is poor or the stove may need cleaning.
Check the stove for ash build up (clean if required) and adjust the slider / damper to produce the proper
clean combustion.
DOOR LATCH (2-3 days)
Check the door latch every time the door is opened or closed to ensure proper movement.
DOOR GLASS CLEANING (When needed)
Cleaning of the glass must only be done when stove is cold. Open the door by lifting the handle. The glass
can be cleaned by wiping down the outside and inside of the glass with a dry soft cloth.
If the glass has build up that can not be removed with only the cloth, clean the glass using paper towel
and a gas appliance glass cleaner, this may be purchased through most dealers. If a gas appliance glass
cleaner is not available, use a damp paper towel dipped in fly ash to clean the glass. After the glass has
been cleaned use the dry soft cloth to wiping down the outside and inside of the glass.
